Obama's Lawless Presidency Close To Totalitarianism

Posted 06/18/2012 07:04 PM ET

The Obama Record: The chief executive who swore to faithfully execute the nation's laws picks those he'll ignore and makes up others through regulation and executive order. He sees no need for a Congress or Constitution.

Maybe it's because Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts stumbled a bit in leading President Obama through the oath of office that the president doesn't feel bound by it.

But through the awkwardness these words were heard: "I, Barack Hussein Obama, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

It would not take Obama long to make clear he meant his interpretation of the Constitution, not the Supreme Court's, a principle established in Marbury v. Madison, the 1802 case that formed the basis for the exercise of judicial review in the U.S. under Article III of the Constitution.

He is drunk with power.

I think the title of the story is a little over the top since Barry has to submit to another election and knows he has to capture the critical swing votes to win. The contents of the story are right on target and demonstrate how time after time unpopular bills die in Congress but an equivalent Executive Order gets issued to enact the same unpopular and possibly illegal policies. Barry is even quoted in the story as saying when Congress won't act He and Uncle Joe will; translation - bypass Congress and break the law for the sake of pushing Barry's agenda on the American people.

Kinda reminds me of another president:

Yep, Democrats might not get it right or follow the law but they are consistent.
