Obama has the executive power of signing bills into law and according to the SCOTUS... can use executive privilege. Your entire position and argument is typical right wing bullshit that's filled with fear mongering.

The worrisome thing about President Obama is that he was once a senior lecturer (accounted as a tenured professor) at the University of Chicago Law School and taught regular courses, not a full load since he was involved in other enterprises having to do with government or other activities, perhaps community-organizing. Obama referred to himself as a "constitutional law professor" during his campaign for the presidency.

That's where the rubber hits the road. Was Obama a professor who was about as bright as a watermelon with regard to the Constitution, or did he then and does he now understand the Constitution and has decided it is too anachronistic or inconvenient to his agenda to be of any importance? During his campaign, he made it plain that the Constitution was remiss in that it did not allow for the proper redistribution of wealth, for instance.

Obama has added the new dimension called the czars in order to bypass a recognizable oligarchy in preference to un-elected or even congressionally un-investigated shadowy figures making key decisions affecting everything from oil-drilling to healthcare. The Cabinet secretaries are all in place but the czars call the shots.

Obama has circumvented the Constitution in other ways. The big deal currently is Obama's budget. Article I, Section 7 of the Constitution: All bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives.... Section 8: The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts and excises, to pay the debts and provide for the common defence [sic]....

Obama knows his "budget" is not worth the reams of paper on which it's printed, especially since the House has already routinely passed budgets on which Senate Majority Leader Reid has not for nearly two years allowed a vote. He can blame the Senate republicans for stopping the process even though the democrats control the Senate (and controlled both legislative bodies 2009-11) and could pass a budget tomorrow. All the president can do is sign or veto, something that won't happen before the elections in November.

The president's most recent un-Constitutional power grab concerning the contraception issue and the churches is a First Amendment violation, but it's also a Tenth Amendment issue: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people." The president is not empowered by the Constitution to mandate what citizens and entities such as businesses must purchase. That is a power/privilege granted to the people.

The president can't even make people get flu shots, much less affect far more important items. Obama has directed employers and insurance companies and people, all as individual entities, to do what he says with respect to insurance and what it must cover. He's even mandated/regulated that insurance companies provide services at no charge, meaning that the taxpayers will pick up the tab. This is an egregious violation of the Constitution, about which he's supposed to be an expert.

Last year, the most egregious violation had to do with his slaughter of Libyans in a war he conducted by executive order when the Constitution is plain in Section I, Article 8, that only Congress can declare war, though Congress itself expanded rightly or wrongly on that provision with the War Powers Act, which Obama also monstrously violated.

On the basis of his presidency vis-à-vis the Constitution, Obama the Constitutional scholar has either proven his abject stupidity or he has an agenda which is demonstrably anti-American.

Just because you claim to goto Church, love Jesus or jive on some other mythological pagan beliefs doesn't change the fact that your kind of people are hypocrites to the utmost.

YOUR opinion and as such, NO ONE CARES!!!!!!!!!!

Hey positronium. I figured you would get it. While others are frantically trying to thaw out their frozen turkey in time for thanksgiving dinner, people like us just go out to the turkey shed and pick out a fat one that's all ready thawed and ready to kill. We are lucky, you and I. For those not so lucky, there's always wal-mart.
I just can't understand how you got suckered into that tea party movement. I thought you would be smarter than that.
Here's a fun fact: The original Boston Tea Party was protesting a tax cut on the East India Company, allowing it to sell tea below market price and stifling competition. But then again, the only history conservatives know about are Hitler and Nostradamus.

Now you wanna change that history as well?
Taxation without representation.
It was about the burden heavy taxing on the citizenry brought,not about protesting tax breaks.
The liberal re-writing of historic fact should be dumped into the harbor.

Conservatism is an oxymoronic word.

I would guess so. According to Jack's statement:"Lower income, lower educated whites voted for Romney overwhelmingly. "
If this is true. Then. Higher income, higher educated whites voted for Obama overwhelmingly. Right? If whites are the majority in this nation. Then higher income, higher educated whites, are the majority. And rich outnumber the poor.

So WHERE IS MY FREE STUFF?(that no one at all pays for)
LMAO!
I demand it.
There.
Oxymoronic indeed, Rico, I agree.
I don't fit the definition though.
But I do conserve.
One must do that to be independent. LOL
