If President Obama wants to make changes to ObamaCare, he must come to Congress, Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) said on Wednesday.
Two years ago, the Obama Administration, through a memo from a Homeland Security Department bureaucrat, declared it would not enforce our nations immigration laws. Now the Obama Administration, through a blog post by an Assistant Secretary in the Treasury Department, is declaring it wont even enforce its own health care law on employers. We live in a Constitutional Republic. We are a nation governed by laws written by Congress, not memos and blog posts written by bureaucrats, King said.

Honestly. The ONLY thing that matters to this obamanation is the next election. These people are arrogant and stupid beyond compare. A dangerous combination...but They’re in a checkmate scenario now. Either they cave, or they overstep..at which point the rest of the country will see what they really elected for...and if that’s what they want..then we’ll have unmasked them, too.
The USA is in the midst of a constitutional crisis, it simply isn't being recognized.
When the IRS targets legitimate political organizations on order of the executive branch, that is a constitutional crisis. When the AG decides which laws to enforce and which perps to prosecute on racial grounds, that is a constitutional crisis. When the organs of the government gather information on all domestic telecommunication, that is a constitutional crisis. When that information is used to blackmail justices, that is a constitutional crisis.
Sorry, JR, but I don't think it augers well for my country if your country turns from a constitutional republic into a fascist dictatorship.
Steve King fights for us. He has been criticized by the R party, his own party, but he tries to do the right thing regardless.
“So, what is Steve King going to do about it? Probably the same thing that was done for Holders contempt of Congress.aka Nothing.”
The Congress has no armed muscle to force a president to do the bidding of the Congress. None. What do you suggest Congress do?
The only time in US history that Congress defied executive power with armed force was in the Reconstruction Act. The US House under Rep. Stevens effectively stripped President Johnson of his title of Commander in Chief.
What should the US House do?
Nor is he a dictator and can just off of the top of his head give away Billions of dollars.
I think Obama is loosing it. They need to pull back on supplying him nose candy.
Amen!
Eric, your right, I should have been time specific!
Right now I could make a fortune selling them deodorant mixed with SPF 40 so they would not get their stinking armpits sunburned while surrendering.
And I am un-proudly part French heritage! Yuck!
Oh really? It seems more like a dictatorship controlled by a communists black Muslim, the anointed King Obama.
Obama don't need no steenkin' Congress anymore.
You got that right. Nixon has a couple of guys try to bug the DNC who without a doubt were getting illegal funds and Nixon is impeached and everyone is up in arms and upset for years.
King Barry bugs millions of private homes and businesses and it's no big deal. Not even a front-page story except for concern for the poor reporters he may have hassled a little.
Here's one way to start one.
Give Boehner a few drinks and he’ll dance whatever jig you want him to. I think he has a “problem.”
So...Congress should grow a pair and stop this tyrannical BS. Do something, you feckless putzes!!!!!!!!
The RINO collaborators sold out long ago.
