You know it's bad when Turley slams Obama.
Obama executive actions seen as threat to Constitution - Washington Times
A prominent law professor and avowed supporter of the Obama White House will tell the House on Wednesday that the president has created one of the biggest constitutional crises in the countrys history and will endorse House Republicans effort to sue to rein him in.
Jonathan Turley, a professor at George Washington University, will say President Obama is trampling the founders vision for the country in his push to circumvent Congress, and he will demand Republicans and Democrats alike forget their party labels to unify against this White Houses power grab.
What we are witnessing today is one of the greatest challenges to our constitutional system in the history of this country, Mr. Turley said in a prepared testimony, saying it began with previous presidents but under Mr. Obama has reached a constitutional tipping point that threatens a fundamental change in how our country is governed.
The scorching testimony to the House Committee on Rules kicks off whats expected to be a several-week push by Republicans that will end in the House approving a lawsuit against Mr. Obama, challenging his unilateral decision to ignore or waive parts of his own signature health care law.
