A Constitutional law professor (even their students) should know better. The TRUTH is Obama was not a Constitutional law professor, and clearly he has not respected or protected the Constitution. Obama has broken his oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States. Article II, Section 1.

Note: Executive Orders by the president were not designed for, nor do they give a president the authority to use as, a means to override or alter legislation or any other Constitutional violation. Furthermore, Executive Orders apply only to employees of the Executive Branch. Any Executive Order that applies to non-government employees is in violation of Article I Section I. Congress has the authority and is oath bound to veto such Executive Orders.

He's a tyrant, but we will never win. .

tl;dr

Meh, the usual from this group. When they are not harassing American Muslims for trying to build culture centers in New York they are pushing Christianity. They were quiet silent during the Bush administration despite his alleged abuse of powers.

Guess we will see if any of their claims stick, they have a chance at a few of them I think.

All presidents lie and they all will abuse their executive power. The difference is that Obama came out and personally criticized Bush, which is a big no no to do. Obama openly said he will be a different type of president, which he clearly is not.

Do you really think it is a coincidence that Clinton and the two Bush presidents get along very well now that they are not in office. These three respect the office of the presidency something Carter and Obama obviously do not. Carter has routinely made inappropriate remarks that are uncalled for. Maybe there is hope for Obama when he leaves the White House, but I doubt it.
