All powers not expressly granted to Obama, are reserved by Obama.

Constitution grants no powers to do most things democrats in general do, and things Obama does in particular.

“The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the State, are reserved to the State.”

Obama’s reading of 10A

The Constitution means nothing any more. The way the Democrats use it and the way the GOP ignores protecting it is proof that America is finished. We will be a dictatorship very shortly.

It will be done by Executive Order.

You are correct sir. When does the bombing begin? They have never paid any attention to the constitution before, why start now?

the constitution will not stop this administration from doing as it pleases. if he pleases to war Syria then he will do so.

The constitution was written for a just and moral people, of which Obama is neither - just sayin

“Person” “pos”

Fecal matter everywhere is offended by your comparison of it to Obama!

He is a pus-filled boil on the buttocks of a toothless Congolese mandrill.

Obama’s reading of 10A

Figures Obama Would think that “The States” means “The State” singular as the overwhelming government machine instead of the 57 errr 50 discrete units of power that make up the united states....

Only a few iterations of selecting and copying and pasting. It expanded exponentially.

Mr Peace Prize doesn’t need no stinkin’ Constitution or Congress when he has a stack of EO forms to be signed. Don’t no one mess with the Boy Wonder or he’ll stomp his feet and sic Moo on ‘em.

As every “constitutional scholar” knows and Barry is one, the constitution is only relevant when it supports your side. When it supports the opposite view, it becomes irrelevant. Just ask him. lolbnr
