Wahhhhhhh...................wahhhhhhhhhhhhh....................
The President is responding to problems, and taking measures to fix those problems. How dare he do that! Who does he think he is, President?????????????????
You dont get it. The President doesnt have that power.
He does get it, and he understands the point you're making.
But he's a liberal, and he's less interested in following the law or the Constitution, than in getting his agenda into place and keeping it there. He will break any law, tell any lie, as long as it results in what he wants. Never mind that it violates an Act of Congress or the Constitution itself.
Liberals have been conditioned to act that way, by generations of pushing an agenda that is basically unconstitutional on its face. It's an agenda of putting a strong central government into place and expanding it conatantly, until it intrudes into every part of people's lives.
The Constitution, OTOH, was designed to make the Fed govt only as large as is needed to take care of things that lower govts CANNOT do, such as running national defense, conducting foreign relations, arbiting conflicts between the states etc. People can add more powers if they want to, by procedures listed in the Const itself... but those procedures take a LOT of people, spread all across the country, agreeing before it can be done. And since America is a fundamentally conservative country (i.e. most people would rather keep govt small and stay free to make their own decisions on most things), the liberals can never get them to agree to the changes needed to give the govt all the powers the liberals want.
So the liberals have gotten used to skulking around, lying about their intentions, tricking people, and violating the law to do what they want, and daring normal people to do anything about it. That's what Obama is doing with things like extending a deadline that Congress made no provision to extend. It's a very small thing... but it's still a violation of an Act of Congress. When Congress passed Obamacare, they did not allow the President any power to extend that deadline. Obama is usurping their authority, albeit in a minor way, when he does it.
And violating an Act of Congress (or a Constitutional mandate) in a small way, will make it easier for them to get away with violating a bigger one when they are ready to.
