The Impeachment of President Obama
I've been all over the spectrum on the possible impeachment of President Obama. A case could be made for abuse of power. Now, it may be true he has not had as many executive orders issued as President George W. Bush. But, in Obama's case, he has changed law (his own health care policy) to establishing law (Deferred Action for Dreamers) to not enforcing the law (Immigration Enforcement Act of 1986) already on the books. He swore an oath to uphold and enforce the laws of the land. He did not swear an oath to uphold the laws he likes. He swore an oath to uphold THE laws (U.S. Constitution) of the nation. There are not "ifs, buts, or whats" in that oath. Let's take a quick look at the oath President Obama took:

The U.S. Supreme Court Strikes Back!
As most should know, President Obama overstepped his authority when he appointed members to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) when he assumed Congress was in recess. But, Congress was only out of order for three days. Take advantage of the situation, in the same manner a child would the cookie jar when mommy isn't home, he made his own appointments. In a stunning 9-0 ruling, the SCOTUS slapped the petulant child's hand. As such, they said the President of the United States violated the constitution.

Obamacare Follies - Part IV

Once again, President Obama is amending and changing law. At one time (and according to the U.S. Constitution) U.S. Congress made and amended laws. No more. President, or rather should I say, King Obama has decreed employers with 50 to 99 full-time workers won't have to comply with the law's requirement to provide insurance or pay a fee until 2016. So, once again, Obama is delaying the health insurance mandate set forth as law by Congress and signed by the King himself. This is, in effect, staying the insurance requirements due to the disastrous roll-out of Obamacare. It's also in response to the Congressional Budget Office devastating news that nearly 2.5 million jobs could be lost due to Obamacare over the next ten years. The Obama administration is still reeling from that report.
