three to seven years from now, once Obama’s influence on the courts and the bureaucracy fully sets in. The only thing good about Obama is that he’s scaring people into paying more attention to politics. The bad thing is that he’s distracting people away from some of the other examples of rot that have been eating away at the rest of the federal government and the country at large for decades now.

There will likely be no next president.

One good thing about executive orders is that the next president can completely overturn the orders. Assuming that we last long enough to have a 'next president.'
Everything I see from an economic, domestic and security policy basis of this gang of Chicago thugs and their lap dog majority in Congress is that the seem intent on destroying the nation, and doing it as quickly as possible.
I don't think they are 'stupid.' I think it's intentional, and even if some EO or group of them are blatantly Unconstitutional, it may be a moot since the Republic will be in ruins before the Supreme Court gets to hear a case.

Gulags for those that dare question his intentions. The Pharoah has spoken so let it be written so let it be done.
Has Obama learned nothing from the era of slavery in the US?

Congress may overturn an executive order by passing legislation in conflict with it or by refusing to approve funding to enforce it. In the former, the president retains the power to veto such a decision; however, the Congress may override a veto with a two-thirds majority to end an executive order. It has been argued that a Congressional override of an executive order is a nearly impossible event due to the supermajority vote required and the fact that such a vote leaves individual lawmakers very vulnerable to political criticism.

He is an Unconstitutional President and is therefore not bound by the constitution. He is going to do any damn thing he likes unless HE IS REMOVED FROM OFFICE as the Usurper he is.
Don’t wonder why he isn’t following the proper constitutional boundaries separating the powers! Don’t wonder for an instant how he is getting away with blatantly unconstitutional actions!
WE ARE SCREWED if that usurper remains in office.
AND HE KNOWS IT.

These pictures need to be made into posters with the word SOCIALIST/FASCIST/DICTATOR across the bottom. Then they need to be plastered all over the place like the obama/joker posters.

FUBO and your executive orders. You are the absolute worst president of all time and you will go down in history as that, and as a total laugingstock. Enjoy.
