If Congress passes a measure that "takes effect" in 2014, how can the President use his "executive authority" to move the effective date by two years?

Can the would-be dictator decide that all of Obamacare takes effect in 2012?

According to Rasmussen, 66% Oppose Forgiveness of Student Loans.

If you had a student loan and you payed it off, don’t you feel pretty stupid right now? Maybe if we all just don’t pay off our bills, Mr. Stupid will pay them for us.

Is it true that the government student loan program has much higher interest rate than private lending agencies offered before the takeover?

Who knew the President had the power to accelerate Congressional legislation.

If it has been done before, I must have forgotten.

Congress abdicates their power again.

He is so out of control now. Just think how bad it will be if he wins/steals the 2012 election.

Okay, I’m waiting for the GOP candidates to call for Pell Grants to be abolished. Haha. Along with all the other FAFSA stuff. Outstanding students in need can obtain private scholarships.

His message is, "try and stop me."

If Congressional Republicans challenge him, he'll say it's just more proof that they don't care about us. That's all he plans on doing from now till the elections.

A quick executive order to dismiss half the SCOTUS, close Congress, add some more Czars, cancel the 2012 election and the socialist utopia only a dream a few years ago can become a reality.

A real headline would read: OBAMA TO BUY STUDENT VOTES

Headline should read:

Obama Decrees Student Loans Be Paid Back By Taxpayers Instead Of Students.


This is a giant win-win-win for Obama. He buys some student votes and covers the pensions of faculty/administrators, buying more votes. And he uses our money to do it.

Currently, total student loan debt exceeds $1 TRILLION!!! That’s taxpayer dollars thrown down a rat hole, in many cases, for people like Moochelle and the OWS numbskulls who don’t believe that they should have to repay their student loans.

Perhaps, the first thing they should have been taught in college is that a ‘LOAN’ is borrowed money that has to be repaid.

Reducing the payment amount doesn’t get the loan repaid sooner, it only drags it out for a longer period of time. That’s the second thing these morons should have been taught with their student LOAN money!!!

I’m sending a letter to my Democrat Congressman and both my brain dead Senators telling them they should quit because we don’t need them anymore. We are now under dictatorship.

Yes, let’s nationalize a lot more bad debt so that taxpayers can eventually foot the bill. Brilliant.

This would be an abuse of his LIMITED “executive authority”.

Unfortunately for decades we have allowed presidents to abuse and completely distort the meaning and limitations of Executive Orders.

They were intended to just apply to the people in the executive branch just like any boss could tell his workers to start at 7:00 am instead of 7:30.

They were never intended to give the president the ability to bypass congress. If that were the intent, we would never had needed congress as the president could be a dictator by simply implementing an executive order.

The White House says President Barack Obama plans to BRIBE millions of student loan borrowers with the ability to lower their payments and consolidate their loans to get their votes.
