William L. Gensert / American Thinker

The problem with our inchoate president is not his policies. Throughout history, pseudo-centrist socialists, peddling feel-good, free-lunch crap, while millions of minions worship their messiah’s brilliance…have often sought to dominate the discussion.

Yet this man seriously seems to believe he is a king, free to pick and choose the laws and statutes he will obey or enforce, duly empowered to impel or forbid action by executive decree, without legislative approval.

America is a republic. We elect representatives to do our bidding, to govern with the consent of the governed. We have a Constitution, which sets plainly the rules by which the branches of government interact and act on issues of importance, as well as the anomalies of the day.

Barack Obama may be the executive — in a federal system comprising three equal branches of government: Executive, Legislative, and Judicial — but he is not an emperor. He cannot make law. Or at least, he is not empowered by the Constitution to do so.

  • You mean problemS? One of his problems is he’s sitting in the wrong chair! And why is his thumb so long? Look at it. I never noticed that before. Oh, I know why. He’s been sitting on it, like a plug. Or we could just say his problem is him. All full of himself acting like he’s a king or something. I don’t usually bash on others, but he really brings it out. I better stop before I get on a roll.
