House Hearing On Obama's Unilateral Action To Cease Enforcing Laws - Live Webcast
ZeroHedge ^ | 12/3/2013 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 12/03/2013 9:22:23 AM PST by mojito

The House Judiciary Committee is about to discuss what it calls “The President’s Constitutional Duty to Faithfully Execute the Laws,” focusing on the Obamacare delays, enforcement of immigration laws, and more. As Mediaite notes, the question of whether the president can take unilateral action to cease enforcing laws stretches back at least to last summer, when President Barack Obama said he would stop deporting young undocumented immigrants, an end-run around congressional refusal to pass the DREAM Act.

Not that I believe it would ever happen, but if a president willfully refusing to enforce the laws of the land - especially ones he himself supported - isn't a cause for removal from office I don't know what would be.

He has ceased being president and is ruling as a monarch.

He can do as he wishes. His color protects him. He needs to be impeached but none have the courage.

I believe DOMA was the first law he and Holder refused to enforce.

The results of this hearing should be impeachment, but in reality the results will be El Zippo Nada Nothing.

It’s a waste of time to make it look like they are doing something. Boehner may make a small appearance and the next day be laughing with chuck the Schmuck in the House dining room.

Interesting hearing. The ‘I’ word has been said many times (Impeachment). Right now, the distinguished (/s) Sheila Jackson Lee is running her racist mouth.

Simon Lazarus doesn’t deal with fact but ascribes political motives to critics and intent to the authors of PPACA.

The law is quite clear on the issue of subsidies in state-run exchanges v. federally-run exchanges as the other witnesses have testified.

Just another Dog and Pony show folks, entertainment at best, cause not a Damned thing will EVER BE DONE TO ANYONE by the spineless whimps in Congress.

Our three Branches of Government are “Separate but Equal”

Why is it the Legislative Branch does not “Exercise their Separate but Equal Power” to JAIL THOSE THAT LIE TO THEM???
After all that is why they have their OWN Congressional JAIL.

Lazarus is a political hack. ‘Objective’ he is not. He should not be there.

What they can really do is make information available to the public and call attention to it. Without political will in the voting populace, and no executive power, practical options are limited - though I suppose they can set themselves up as pop-up targets.

Been watching all day. Gowdy went toe to toe with the liberal idiot and tore zero a new one. More entertaining than the movies.
