The President Who Would Be King Changes The Law

[boedicca]

This is a pretty good example of why Obama wants to control the internets: Average Americans can see him Gruberize and out himself as a Lying Liar Who Lies.

He's publicly admitted (bragged) that he Changed The Law regarding immigration.


Isn’t this an admission against interest? Barack Obama has spent the past several days insisting that his changes in enforcement of immigration law and regulation is entirely constitutional, since it doesn’t actually change or conflict with statute. It only took a heckler in a crowd last night to get Obama to brag that he “changed the law” — a process which the supposed Constitutional law scholar would know is impossible without Congress:

“Don’t just start yelling, young ladies,” Obama said as multiple women stood up to demand that Obama stop deporting people.


“I let you holler,” he said as they continued shouting. “You’ve got to listen to me too.”


Obama said that the protesters were right about a lot of illegal immigrants getting deported but that he was acting to change it.


“What you’re not paying attention to is the fact that I just took an action to change the law,” Obama said.

Just to be clear, executive action — whether through formal EOs or other kinds of directives — cannot “change the law.” They can only act as guidelines on how to act within the law. Any change to statute has to originate in Congress through passage of a bill, and then signed by the President to take effect. This, in fact, is exactly what Republicans have accused Obama of attempting — a change in statute by executive edict, a move that would be unconstitutional and illegitimate. Anyone who has passed a high-school civics class understands that process and that restriction on power.

Nor did this appear to be a simple case of pulling the wrong word. The once-celebrated constitutional scholar actually made the case twice that he had changed the law in response to the heckling. The Hill captured Obama’s continued argument, emphases mine:

“You have been deporting families,” a heckler yelled. The president urged the demonstrator to stop shouting before he fired back.


“What you’re not paying attention to is the fact that I just took an action to change the law, so that’s point No. 1,” Obama said, his words echoing to 1,000 attendees. “Point No. 2, the way the change in the law works is that we’re reprioritizing how we enforce our immigration laws generally.”

So yes, Obama thinks he’s changed the law, which is something EOs and executive actions cannot legally do....

Nor did this appear to be a simple case of pulling the wrong word. The once-celebrated constitutional scholar actually made the case twice that he had changed the law in response to the heckling. The Hill captured Obama’s continued argument, emphases mine:

“You have been deporting families,” a heckler yelled. The president urged the demonstrator to stop shouting before he fired back.


“What you’re not paying attention to is the fact that I just took an action to change the law, so that’s point No. 1,” Obama said, his words echoing to 1,000 attendees. “Point No. 2, the way the change in the law works is that we’re reprioritizing how we enforce our immigration laws generally.”

So yes, Obama thinks he’s changed the law, which is something EOs and executive actions cannot legally do....

Obama 8220 I just took an action to change the law 8221 Hot Air

I don't suppose Republicans who give away American landowners hard earned land to another country counts as being KING does it.

I call that TRAITOR SOB's.

If you feel that strongly about property rights, you should be horrified at tax-based redistribution!

if you had any idea how much property tax I've paid in my life YOU would be horrified, and dead ass broke. Some asswipe giving away the property I've paid tax on should be illegal ... obviously you don't give a shit because you've never paid property tax, you just bitch about it.

I don't discuss my personal finances on public message boards. It's tacky.

nor I ... BTW, the city is planning on making your street a 4 lane highway and they need the room ... the house you've been living in for the last 15 years, and the property tax you paid the city are ALL gone, and were for nothing. You and all your neighbors have 30 days to leave. Good luck!

This is a pretty good example of why Obama wants to control the internets: Average Americans can see him Gruberize and out himself as a Lying Liar Who Lies.

He's publicly admitted (bragged) that he Changed The Law regarding immigration.


Isn’t this an admission against interest? Barack Obama has spent the past several days insisting that his changes in enforcement of immigration law and regulation is entirely constitutional, since it doesn’t actually change or conflict with statute. It only took a heckler in a crowd last night to get Obama to brag that he “changed the law” — a process which the supposed Constitutional law scholar would know is impossible without Congress:

“Don’t just start yelling, young ladies,” Obama said as multiple women stood up to demand that Obama stop deporting people.


“I let you holler,” he said as they continued shouting. “You’ve got to listen to me too.”


Obama said that the protesters were right about a lot of illegal immigrants getting deported but that he was acting to change it.


“What you’re not paying attention to is the fact that I just took an action to change the law,” Obama said.

Just to be clear, executive action — whether through formal EOs or other kinds of directives — cannot “change the law.” They can only act as guidelines on how to act within the law. Any change to statute has to originate in Congress through passage of a bill, and then signed by the President to take effect. This, in fact, is exactly what Republicans have accused Obama of attempting — a change in statute by executive edict, a move that would be unconstitutional and illegitimate. Anyone who has passed a high-school civics class understands that process and that restriction on power.

If you think I support Eminent Domain that forces people out of their homes for local pork projects, you are sorely mistaken.
