The EO strategy worries me too. What if Obama signs an executive order with the house amendments in it?

It’s corrupt as all hell, but I wouldn’t put it past them.

It would never pass judicial review, just ask Harry Truman. Presidential Executive Orders cannot undo enacted law. It doesn't work that way.

It would go straight to the Supreme Court then as an abuse of power, seperation of powers issue. I hope he tries it...it would be grounds for impeachment.
