He won’t have to. Holder will when someone drags the administration’s butt to court for expedited review.

Obvious observation: just imagine if George Bush, or John Ashcroft, had said this.

Incredible display of arrogance. Imagine the liberal hissy fits if Bush had said this.

“he does not have to answer”
0bama’s 5th amendment defense. Used on US citizens on a number of his opinions.
Also used by his appointees and nominated persons.
....”on the grounds that it might incriminate me....”

President Barack Obama told reporters he does not have to answer the question of whether the War Powers Resolution is constitutional. Since when has Obama considered himself the spokesman for the TOTUS anyway?

Huh? Wait a minute. I thought Øbama was this all knowing, all seeing, Havard educated Constitutional scholar.
I mean he should know this. He’s the Messiah for crying out loud! The smartest man ever elected to the presentacy.
To: chessplayer
Yes, but it only applies to Republican Presidents.

The President’s whole job is to uphold the Constitution. Its his job description.

Obama is 100% right.
He does not have to answer, No one is about to do anything about it, We already saw the Republicans back down, the Democrats do not care, Amerian Public doesn’t amount to a good squat and will probably re-elect this POS.

He doesn’t have to pay attention to the Constitution because he doesn’t believe it applies to him. A modern day communist.

Just as Mussolini didn’t have to answer why the trains still weren’t running on time.

If he were a Republican, this would be an “It’s ok when the President does it” moment.
But he’s a liberal democrat so the media will ignore it.
