Color me astonished if Congress does anything except serve themselves.

[Verginius Rufus]

We don’t need Congress if the President can just make the laws as he sees fit. We could save a lot of money by abolishing Congress. Turn the Capitol into a museum of US history.

[exnavy]

Let me help with that title, "The constitution shuts down Obama."

Now all we need are congress critters with gonads.

[Zeppo]

It occurs to me that exactly the same part of the Constitution that grants Obama the power to ignore the law also gives me that same power to ignore the law.

Just sayin’...

[EagleUSA]

Remember that is what he said to the Russkies!!!

The Constitution is DEAD!!!!

TRAITOR (in his own words).

[Jack Hydrazine]

When that happens a purge will commence.

Thank you for referencing that article raptor22. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

The Constitution was “derailed” by misguided citizens so long ago, the ratificatons of the 16th and 17th Amendments an excellent example, that the title of this thread is basically meaningless imo.

[Noumenon]

There is only one way to stop this.

I feel confident that about 1/3rd of Republicans in Congress are Conservative.

I’m confident that about half are Libs disguised as RINOs and the GOPe, and will sell out the country for a mess of pottage.

OBAMANESTY PING

[tx_eggman]

Will Congress use this power to thwart President Obama's shredding of the Constitution with his executive amnesty plan?

ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ..... inhale .... ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ...

Stop it, you're killin' me.

[minnesota_bound]

I see Drudge shows the 2 guys in charge of Congress have left town.... What is so hard do to do the right thing?

Watch, forward, and post on social networks.

Kid KNOW this stuff. They’ll relate. Use it.

[SoCal Pubbie]

If Congress cuts the purse strings what’s to stop Obama from saying he won’t wait for Congress to act, and simply issue an executive order for his administration to spend the money anyway?

Moaning, shrieking, wailing and no one does a thing. Americans are slaves, NOT free men.

OBAMNESTY PING

[itsahoot]

Incoming Senate Budget Committee Chairman Jeff Sessions is on record as opposing any long-term budget resolution that would include funding for this executive travesty.

Which is why Enzi will challenge his chairmanship.

[Robert357]

My take is completely different on the Big Zero's actions. I am glad in a perverse way that he has done this foolish executive action.

What?

Obama is not a chess master. Let's take a look at how ham-handed he has used the IRS against the TeaParty, ObamaCare’s disastrous rollout, Holder in Fast & Furious, the State Dept in Bengahzi, Veterans Admin health scandal, ISIS(L)is JV, Putin is our friend, Red Line in Syria, etc. He is regularly tripped up by his own doing.

Obama is good at thinking one to two moves ahead on the chessboard of politics. This has impressed the MSM. When the likes of Putin and others play him, we need to take note of how poor a strategic thinker Obama really is and his love of micro-management & no management.

If Conservatives, Republicans, TeaParty can unite and use their heads, they can out think him, like Putin has repeatedly.

My (fear, dread, horrible nightmare) is that Ferguson will blow up into a blood bath, that a Republican House and Senate will need to address. If Ferguson blows up, it will be a “Black/African-American” media crisis. If Republicans, Conservatives and TeaParty leaders can pull together to implement some real job/education improvement programs directed at inner cities and minority populations that actually put lots of people to work, it could change the whole voting dynamic of the next election.

Imagine if the Conservatives, Republicans, TeaParty focused hearing on the impact of adding 4 million workers to unemployment rates and showed the black community what Obama was doing to them. Imagine if Congress pointed out what 4 million new workers would do to the Hispanic unemployment rate?

Now sit back and think about the huge expectations on the ACA and how the rollout embarrassed the President and all his advisers and soured the American people on his policy. Now think about Republicans referring to the Amnesty as “Black on Black” crime because it will skyrocket Black unemployment rates.

Imagine how Hispanics full of hope at getting to avoid deportation and gain work permits will be crushed when they find out they have to pay back taxes that exceed any meager savings that they have? Think of it as ACA-2! There is a good chance that the Amnesty plan being proposed is so convoluted that it will fall on its face after creating huge expectations.

My hope is that the executive actions can be turned into Lemonade and change the dynamic for the 2016 Presidential election. To do this will require thinking like a chess master not doing knee-jerk reactions to Obama’s provocations.

Hey, maybe Obama has more in common with Lincoln than we realized?
