The Kenyan and his phony “lawyers” are making up the laws and rules as they go along. It’s a commie pig thing.

According to our Constitution, Congress is the lawmaking body, the executive isn’t. Recent presidents (Clinton, Bush and Obama) have tried to get around this by issuing laws but not calling them laws, and also by issuing directives through cabinet departments. And they often had success, because our Congress let them/lets them get away with it.
If we had good Republican leadership in Congress, Obama could be shut down. We don’t, so Obama keeps doing it. Boehner and McConnell are Obama’s assistants.

You are so right... but only the voting people can stop that, same as we vote in what we vote for...the thing that upsets me is:

A candidate comes out for re-election and they say oh we are going to listen to you, we are going to work for you, we this and we that, so ok, we take them at their word, and re-elect them and then they go back and continue the same thing as they have been doing....

Remember the old saying: ‘First time, shame on you; Second time, shame on ME’.....

I think we need to start looking at these candidates as a ‘business person’ what are they going to do to make us more money, so we can live better lives, if these candidates don’t have a hard, clear answer, then don’t vote for them...and also, be sure your electing in the local areas people that work hard in their cities, and States so we can draw from there to send to Washington D.C.

Yep, and we have to educate voters, your average voter is not keeping up with all this. But some of these Congresscritters have been in D.C. for decades, and nothing changes. Oh, but they talk a good game to the rubes back home!

> And under Executive Order 11030, signed by President Kennedy in 1962, an executive order must contain a “citation of authority,” saying what law it’s based on. Memoranda have no such requirement.

To: HarleyLady27; All
Regarding Obama’s unconstitutional executive actions excuses, please bear the following in mind. The Founding States gave Congress the power to remove lawless presidents like Obama from the Oval Office. The problem is, as a consequence of the ill-conceived 17th Amendment, we now have a corrupt Senate that is refusing to work with the House to stop Obama from exercising legislative powers which he doesn’t have.

The 17th Amendment needs to disappear, and Constitution-ignoring senators who support lawless presidents along with it.

But the Old time Reps and Old time Senators are getting ‘freebies’ for hauling obuma’s water for him....

Yes they should have impeached him by now, but then again, they shouldn’t have voted him in the second time and if it wasn’t a ‘rigged’ election, he wouldn’t be there now....

The issue is not whether he issues executive orders. The issue is whether his executive orders fall within his Constitutional powers. If not, their total number is irrelevant.
