Obammy’s a lawyer - he knows exactly what his words mean.
1. | outrageous or heinous character; atrociousness: the enormity of war crimes. |

3. | greatness of size, scope, extent, or influence; immensity: The enormity of such an act of generosity is staggering. e·nor·mi·ty (ĭ-nôr'mĭ-tē) Pronunciation Key
