Is it Okay for Obama to Ignore the Constitution?
Warren Beatty / American Thinker
Dear Leader Barack Hussein Obama thinks it’s permissible to rewrite federal statutes, like immigration laws and ObamaCare’s employer mandate and signup deadlines. Example: Regarding laws governing U.S. immigration policy, when Obama signed the executive amnesty order barring prosecution (and subsequent deportation) of something like 4 million illegal immigrants, he said “I just took an action to change the law.” He was never concerned that his action was illegal. He just saw 4 million Democrat voters.
Obama’s rationale for unilaterally changing the immigration law: the fact that Congress was hopelessly gridlocked on immigration issues and wouldn’t pass laws he favored, the intolerable legal limbo that illegal aliens found themselves in, and that a crisis existed that demanded that he act, that he sign an executive order. The fact that the aliens were (by current law) illegal never was a consideration for him. It was just crucially important that he immediately act unilaterally. So he did.
About his action, Obama said:
There are actions I have the legal authority to take as president — the same kinds of actions taken by Democratic and Republican presidents before me — that will help make our immigration system more fair and more just. [emphasis mine]
What we’ve done is we’ve expanded my authorities under executive action and prosecutorial discretion as far as we can legally under the existing statute, the existing law.

Well of course! That is the American way! But you don’t have to worry about the treasenous military to stop their criminal illegal actions and orders inside the Pentagon by the Generals and Admirals. Need proof they have committed High Treasen while wearing their uniform? Got the guts to learn the real truth?
