The Obama Rule: Can I Get Away With It?

all it The Obama Rule. When will our president do something he wants to do that the Constitution or morality prohibits? When he can get away with it.

President Barack Obama did not move forward with his unilateral action on immigration before the midterm elections, because he was worried he would pay too high a price. Additional congressional Democrats might have lost, and more Democrats would have blamed him for the losses.

He moved forward with his unconstitutional action after the elections because he calculated — correctly — that Republican congressional leaders would let him get away with it.

One of the most egregious examples of Obama's deciding he could get away with it came long before he was president and was noted in this column six years ago.

In 2001, when Obama served in the Illinois Senate, state Sen. Patrick O'Malley introduced a remarkably simple bill. It said a born baby would be treated under Illinois law as a "person," "human being," "child" and "individual."

The bill was needed because an Illinois hospital had been performing induced-labor abortions. In this procedure, a mother was drugged to induce labor. When her baby was born alive, the little boy or girl was left to die.

State Sen. O'Malley wanted to make sure all newborn boys and girls were treated equally — as persons.

making the hat match the perspectives in this animation would have been very very time consuming and due to the very realistic look of the existent frames might have detracted from the effect

he really does look like hes saying Me...and I didnt want to spoil that

Did you do anything with his eyes or are they actually that glassy?

the eyes were not processed or redrawn in any manner whatsoever.

his eyes really are that glassy

I treated the entire face to several “processes to bring ut both detail and color. but other than that o special attention was paid to the eyes.

we tend to focus on the eyes as a matter of habit...and when the face and ese are so cleary strange,,,,as is alwys the case with this clown ISOLATING two frames....taken form a screenshot of an online video...can make the eyes look pretty startling indeed

Wow. That isn’t normal AT all....

It is shocking that it is this obvious— which means he’s not worried about anybody saying or doing anything about it. If he had any concern he would ensure that he was a bit more discreet. He plainly doesn’t give a fiddlers fart.
