Constitution, shmonstitution.

What this means, is that it doesn't mean anything to EmperorObama, the supposed constitutional law professor, what happens when congress approves a law and another president signs it. Obama has granted to himself the authority to unilaterally eradicate duly constituted laws. So much for separation of powers.

Why do we need Congress, exactly?

What some Kool Aid drinkers are saying is that Reagan and Bush did the same thing. Wrong. What Reagan and Bush did, was to close loopholes in existing laws, to prevent unintended consequences. One of those laws gave parents the right to stay, but would have resulted in the deportation of babies, so when Bush used executive authority to fix that, he wasn't changing the intent of the law.

Obama is, with the wave of his hand, reversing duly constituted laws. Kudos to El Duce Obama.

Constitution, shmonstitution. From now own, laws only exist if the President likes them.
