Be sure and let us know when he exercises unconstitutional power, mm-kay? Be prepared to quote the exact provisions in the exact EO.
A Presidential directive strengthening or weakening regulations? Better make sure someone on your team has not done the exact same thing in the past before making a completely hypocritical ass of yourself. Better make sure it is entirely legal before making a completely ignorant ass of yourself.
"Because Obama" is not evidence of unconstitutional or dictatorial behavior. I know you think it is, but it isn't.
Ooooooh, he's writing Executive Orders! A historical first! A DICTATOR!!! SOMEBODY STOP HIM!
How many has he had? All I know is he has had less than Bush or Reagan.

I do not believe our forefathers intended our leaders to do an end run around congress and write executive orders. IOW, I believe they are ALL unconstitutional.
Why have congress at all if the President has the powers of a King? I believe that's exactly what they didn't want.

Considering those Founders who went on to become President wrote Executive Orders themselves, you are not only wrong, but have exposed yourself of being ignorant of all things Founder related!

You are another one who has never read an EO in your life. That much is obvious.

Actually, I have read several EOs. I did not believe our founding fathers had EOs and I have so far been unable to find proof that they did. The closest I can come, and this is admittedly not taking very long is the following:
Presidents use executive orders to avoid working with Congress, and, since Watergate, presidents have asserted executive privilege while calling it something else

and according to wikipedia ( I know, not the best source)
Executive order - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Until 1952, there were no rules or guidelines outlining what the president could or could not do through an executive order. However, the Supreme Court ruled in Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer, 343 US 579 (1952) that Executive Order 10340 from President Harry S. Truman placing all steel mills in the country under federal control was invalid because it attempted to make law, rather than clarify or act to further a law put forth by the Congress or the Constitution. Presidents since this decision have generally been careful to cite which specific laws they are acting under when issuing new executive orders.
I do not believe our forefathers intended executive orders to give the president a power to do an end run around congress. In fact until the 1900's the "orders" the president put out were not called "executive orders".
And my proof in the pudding, so to speak:
One extreme example of an executive order is Executive Order 9066, where Franklin D. Roosevelt delegated military authority to remove any or all people (used to target specifically Japanese Americans and German Americans) in a military zone. The authority delegated to General John L. DeWitt subsequently paved the way for all Japanese-Americans on the West Coast to be sent to internment camps for the duration of World War II.
Do you really believe our forefathers intending our president to be able to do the above without any input of the people or congress?
