President Obama seems ready to work around Congress in 2014, telling reporters before his first Cabinet meeting of the year Tuesday that he stood ready to use two tools, a pen and a phone, to provide help for Americans.
“We are not just going to be waiting for legislation in order to make sure that we're providing Americans the kind of help that they need. I've got a pen, and I've got a phone. And I can use that pen to sign executive orders and take executive actions and administrative actions that move the ball forward in helping to make sure our kids are getting the best education possible, making sure that our businesses are getting the kind of support and help they need to grow and advance, to make sure that people are getting the skills that they need to get those jobs that our businesses are creating,” the president said.
“I've got a phone that allows me to convene Americans from every walk of life, nonprofits, businesses, the private sector, universities to try to bring more and more Americans together around what I think is a unifying theme: making sure that this is a country where, if you work hard, you can make it,” he added.

SOP for Obama. Nothing new here.
...the genius of our forefathers is on full display. He can’t turn this country into a monarchy. UNLESS of course, Congress refused to impeach or the courts do nothing to stop this.
Hey GOP idiots here's a clue: the American people have a built-in HATRED for tyrants. You wouldn't be taking too much of a RISK to point out that we have a purple lipped one currently sitting in 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
The only person with big enough balls to stop Hussein is Hillary, and she is only going to do that if he refuses to leave when his time is up and it’s her turn.
