President Obama is weighing a big-time executive action on immigration that has both Democrats and Republicans anxious. He's also pursuing a major international climate-change agreement without ratification by Congress. And it's not yet clear whether the White House will seek congressional authorization for military action in Syria that appears increasingly likely.
Yes, we are finally entering into what could be a very big debate about executive authority -- and with the 2014 election just weeks away.
ThIS (sic) debate was supposed to happen when House Republicans sued Obama over his having delayed a portion of Obamacare unilaterally. But if he does even one of the things mentioned above without Congress (much less two or three of them in the span of a few days/weeks), the court of public opinion will pretty much be forced to weigh in on whether he has gone too far.
As we've written before, the GOP's lawsuit against Obama is unpopular, with a recent poll showing Americans opposed it 58-34.
But that doesn't mean they aren't concerned about Obama -- or any president, for that matter -- going too far without the consent of Congress. In fact, there is plenty of concern about a unilateral executive and commander in chief.

Time to dethrone this impostor.
I’ll be surprised if anyone stands up to his abuse of power and even more surprised if anyone supports such an effort.
He will do what ever he wants to do. The press will back his moves. The RINOwinnies will sit on their hands and do nothing as the nation spirals down the toilet. Folks, you might as well get used to it. THIS is America now. The America we knew, loved, and grew up with, and some of us defended to the point of blood on the ground, is gone. G-O-N-E, gone. You had simply better prepare yourself the best you can to take care of yourself and your family. The best way is to find a Bible believing Church and get close to the LORD. I will firmly admit though, that finding a TRUE Bible believing Church today is hard. You simply have to look around. No “name it and claim it” or “feel good” Churches like Joel Osteen, Rick Warren, etc. Look for the real thing.
One wonders if Mullah Obama will declare by EO on 11-7-2016 that he is pResident for life.
Undermining the Constitution and the rule of law is “a real political issue”? The Washington Post is pathetic.
He doesn’t have to. It will be a fait accompli if he goes the whole way on Amnesty. It will BE the coup d’etat.
