At a press conference in southeast Asia, Obama was asked the question in the title. He was also asked if he had been informed by DOJ about the legal authority of his proposed actions. Obama said he had been informed, and when asked if he would share that info, he said NO.

For a reporter to ask such a question is foolish. Did he think he would get the truth?
********
On one level he did get the truth - Obama would not tell about the advice he received from the DOJ regarding the legality of the executive action coming soon.

___________
A president can be voted out of office, a king/emperor must be forced out. That’s what popped into my mind when I read the story, I bet Obama was thinking the same.

************
Perhaps planting the thought that Obama will continue to “rule” America. Good catch!

The reporter asked the right question. He put Obama on record as not answering the question.

Of course he didn't.

But he accomplished his aim: get O'bammer, in his own words, demonstrating his 'king-ship' rights belief...

An eternal curse on the Democrat party for delivering America into the hands of this truly despicable individual.

This sounds like a question for Lynch at confirmation hearings.

A longer more complete exchange was documented in this video - see text beneath the video for transcript.

The message is that Obama wants the senate (comprehensive bill) to pass through the house right away.

Seems like it was going to benefit the Unions and cost a lot of money.

Taxpayers should demand to know the names of pressure groups colluding and conspiring to undermine US Constitution--to precipitate he overthrow of the US gov-----to establish tax-subsidized slush funds and revenue streams without regard for Us laws. Taxpayers demand prosecutions for using our resources to conspire and to commit felonies.

==========================================================================================

“Not only is the Senate amnesty bill an abuse of taxpayers and immigrants, it’s utterly unconstitutional. The Senate cannot invent its own amnesty taxes,” said Cong Stockman (R-TX). “I hope Speaker Boehner will immediately kill the amnesty bill through a constitutionally-required blue slip. As long as the amnesty bill sits in the House it poses a threat to taxpayers and immigrants.”

<><> Several provisions of the Senate amnesty bill create new taxes, a violation of the “origination clause,” Article I, Section 7, Clause 1 of the United States Constitution, which states “All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills.”

<><> Section 2102 of the amnesty bill requires the payment of certain taxes and forgives the payment of other taxes as a condition of receiving amnesty and other benefits. The Constitution prohibits the Senate from approving bills that raise revenue.

<><> Cong Stockman also points to the Congressional Budget Office, which flatly states “enacting S. 744 would have a wide range of effects on federal revenues, including changes in collections of income and payroll taxes, certain visa fees that are classified as revenues, and various fines and penalties. Taken together, those effects would increase revenues by $459 billion over the 2014-2023 period.”

---------------------------------------------

Any bill that raises revenue must originate in the House. By creating their own amnesty taxes Senate Democrats broke the rules. Senate Democrats were so hell-bent on ramming through a gift to radical political activists they didn’t bother to check if it was even legal.”

Immigration Reform Bill Protects Dirty Latino Public Officials from

====================================

The Senate immigration “reform” bill includes two “slush funds” amounting to $150 million dollars that may be supplemented with additional taxpayer dollars for years to come, earmarked for non-profit organizations such as the blood-thirsty La Raza.

America-hating Raza Studies teach (1) violence, (2) undermining US ntl security, and, (3) the need for Mexico to "re-take seven states in the Southwest...in order to make the SW a Chicano nation. "

REFERENCE---LA RAZA TEACHING HATE-AMERICA WITH OUR TAX DOLLARS La Raza Studies do not even try to sugar-coat its anti-America agenda and its bloodthirsty plans to kill off Americans: Raza Studies textbook “Occupied America,” by Rodolfo Acuña, includes a violent and blood-curdling speech given by university professor Jose Angel Gutierrez: “We have got to eliminate the gringo, and what I mean by that is, if the worst comes to the worst, we have got to kill him,” (pg. 323). La Raza's Occupied America textbook teaches: “.......execute all white males over age 16,”

the next thing out of the reporter’s mouth should have been “so that whole transparency thing was just ANOTHER of your lies to get elected.”

Why does anyone care what Obama’s employees in the hand picked “justice department” have to say? If they don’t agree with Obama they are likely to be fired.

“A president can be voted out of office, a king/emperor must be forced out.”

Better to be voted out than than taking a ride in a tumbrel to the town square, even though the latter is more deserved.
