Immigration in prime time

So Emperor Obama is going to announce his unilateral amnesty plan in a prime time address tomorrow. Just a few thoughts:
  1. Will he also explain why he was wrong the 22 times he said he couldn't do this very thing?
  2. Will he explain why he's not only circumventing the Congress and the Constitution but also the will of the American voters who resoundingly rejected his policies just a couple weeks ago?
  3. Will he chastise Republicans for their lack of bipartisanship even though he is the one who is staunchly refusing to work with them?
  4. Will he explain why he and the rest of the Democrats didn't pass immigration reform when they controlled both houses of Congress?
  5. Will he explain why he conveniently postponed his immigration announcement until after the elections?
  6. Will the Condescension Meter explode during his address?
  7. Will he explain the virtues of welcoming illegal aliens while simultaneously making those who are using the legal process wait for years? And will he explain why the United States is better off welcoming those who don't care about the law than it is welcoming those who do?
But most importantly, given that we know this move is immensely unpopular with a large majority of Americans, what in the last few years has given Obama the notion that another one of his long, tedious, arrogant, patronizing, deceitful speeches is exactly what is needed to sway Americans to his viewpoint?
