“Obama Orders Pay Raise for Biden, Members of Congress, Federal Workers”

SNIPPET: “President Barack Obama issued an executive order to end the pay freeze on federal employees, in effect giving some federal workers a raise. One federal worker now to receive a pay increase is Vice President Joe Biden.”

This stinks of unconstitutionality. Since when do federal employees, and especially members of Congress, look to the President, the Big Cheese-Wannabee-for-Life, for an emolument or increment to their compensation?

Hell, no! Boehner and the GOP caucus ought to get busy at the jump, knocking down this power grab.
