Obama is about to do a TON of humming and hawing

[rockrr]

Interesting article but largely irrelevant since SCOTUS has become 100% partisan and 0% reflective of the law.

In other words, the executive branch cannot forbid the enforcement of the laws.

Geeeeeeee, does that mean the existing immigration laws need to be enforced? Since Obama claims to be a constitutional scholar, you would think he knows that.

If the liberal Democrats were bank robbers, National Review would be holding open the door and driving the getaway car.

And they would expect us to praise them because they didn’t speed as they were driving away. :)

What laws?

We don't need no stinkin' laws!!!!!!

If Scotus rules that presidents can selectively enforce or not enforce congressional law or pick and choose sections of laws to enforce or not enforce, then Scotus will be ending the Constitutional power of Congress.

There's no way around that conclusion that I can see.

"Citizens must be well informed and ready to pursue positive goals toward self-defense."

If I can pick and choose, I'll "enforce" that by only using the words, "Citizens must be...positive."

"Citizens must be well informed and read to pursue positive goals toward self-defense."

That's not a rewrite at all is it? /sarc

Took them long enough, not that anything is going to change.

Hmm, if SCOTUS rules against Obama making law, will it then have to cancel it's own law making for homosexuals calling themselves married?

I'm thinking this will be one of those oral arguments that I'll absolutely have to listen to. Truthfully, if the administration doesn't bring up this particular example as foundational for Obama’s actions, they are fools.
