Professor Michael Olivas: House should be ashamed of its reaction to Obama’s executive action
In this op/ed, Professor Michael Olivas criticizes Republicans in the House of Represntatives for the strong negative public reactions to President Obama’s latest immigration initiatives. In so doing, he kicks things off with a wonderful film analogy:
“In `Casablanca,’ the greatest immigration movie ever made, the police round up the `usual suspects.’ We see Rick meet Ilsa in one of the great `gin joints in all the world,’ and Inspector Renault is `shocked … shocked!’ at the gambling going on, as he is handed his winnings. Who knew this improbable 1942 wartime movie classic was to be reprised by today’s elected officials?”
