President Obama showed his true colors, complete with the huge Yellow streak that runs down his back after the Congressional luncheon he served up to the Congressional leaders at the White House, Saturday. I guess his quip about wanting to drink some Bourbon with Senator Mitch McConnell, the presumed soon-to-be Majority Leader of the Senate that he will be dealing with in January, was intended to soothe the ruffled feathers of the Congressional leaders, who've had their lawmaking authority crippled for six years by this president who seems to think that his reelection in 2012 was not for the presidential office, but a coronation to the monarchy that was refused by George Washington and repudiated by the rest of our founding fathers. Somebody needs to explain to him exactly what the "Checks And Balances" of a Tri-Cameral Constitutional form of government means. Apparently, a Harvard education in Constitutional Law is not sufficient to teach him, or did he think it was to learn ways to get around the restrictions of his authority? Does he really think he can rule this country by fiat, or as he puts it, by limitless Executive Action? Doesn't he realize that America already has a king that he has three times sworn to "uphold", namely the Constitution, and it guarantees that all laws are made by Congress, and he is sworn to execute them, even the ones that he doesn't agree with. He does not have the authority to pick and chose the laws he wishes to enforce, and to effectively make his own laws, by declaring Executive Action, even if doing so is presumed to help his Democratic Party in future elections. But, his promise to declare Amnesty for illegal immigrants is tantamount to throwing fuel on the fire of the Immigration debate, even before the New Congress is sworn in, next January. He doesn't give a hoot about the welfare of these immigrants, as long as they can be expected to vote overwhelmingly Democratic. And he realizes that merely issuing work permits that do not permit them to vote may give them the means to better their lives, while going through proper procedures to apply for citizenship, but they will not give the Democrats an unfair, and unconstitutional advantage, at least in Presidential elections.
Thank God (literally) that these illegals apparently don't consider Mid-Term elections important enough to risk getting caught and deported back to their home countries, even though King Barak has told the I.C.E. officials not to deport them, unless they're convicted of a violent crime (which would preclude their voting ability, anyway). And the legal Democrats can be thanked for this election landslide, because they apparently decided that they should stay away in droves from the polls, as a way of showing their disapproval of the performances of the Democratic Senate, and King Barak himself.
I just wonder if he will voluntarily leave office in two years, or will the Secret Service have to throw him out of the White House, kicking and screaming all the way to Pennsylvania Avenue!!!
