No more follwing the law...

I always thought that when a government official took an oath "...to uphold the laws of the United States of America", that they were obligated, no matter what, to uphold our laws. Secretary Janet Napolitano of the Immigration & Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE) was asked why she refused to deport illegal aliens from Arizona, she said that she was told that the President (Obama) is against the law and to not cooperate with the state of Arizona.
Later, John Morton ( Assistant Secretary of ICE) said that they "were too busy with other matters to help Arizona".
The law specifies exactly what the duties of ICE are regarding illegal aliens...NO EXCEPTIONS.
So, does this mean that all the President has to do is just say that he's for or against something and we can all forget about our laws, a Congressional vote or any other thing that would take place outside of a dictatorship ?
It appears that King Obama has spoken and the law is no longer the law. A "swearing in" to uphold our laws is merely a "formality" that no one expects to honor.
Well, there goes another breakdown of our Constitution, the laws of this land and certainly more of our freedoms and rights. I guess we don't have to wait until November 2012 to vote for a new President as Obama will declare himself King, or Emperor, or God, or whatever by then.
Before Obama, no matter how badly the country was being run, there still was no better place to live than the United States of America. Now, several other places are starting to look better.
