Didn’t he already do something like that to the GM bondholders?

Sounds like something an African dictator would do.

The Penumbra of the Constitution allows the federal government to loot private businesses and kill babies.

More like a Castro or Chavez, who do things like that because “it’s good for the people”.

He did it last year to the senior debt holders of GM. He stole their property and gave it to the Unions, abrogating centuries of contract law. He did it without any new laws.

Should not courts and normal legal proceedings determine who is responsible, who has been harmed, and who owes what to whom in regards to the Gulf oil spill?

Looks like someone wasn't paying attention to the GM, Chrysler bankruptcies.

“Where does he get the authority?”

From the same place he got the birth certificate.

“Where...”

If anyone asked him, and if he answered, he would likely just say, “I won.”

But he taught constitutional law didn’t he? Surely he knows what he is doing? Right?
