What Happened to Rule By Law?
Can somebody explain how Der Fuhrer (Obama) can decide which parts of which laws to enforce? I thought when laws were passed, it was part of the duty of the executive branch to ensure enfacement? The executive branch doesn't get to decide, it is bound by the constitution to make sure that duly enacted laws are carried out to the letter. Under what authority does the president (Def Fuhrer) get to decide which laws to enforce and how they are enforced? Why is congress allowing this president to operate like a dictator? Obama is more like Putin than Jefferson.
If not, then we've been under Presidential "Dictatorship" in excess of 70 years.
SCARY!
Damn it I hate FDR! T'wat a louse.

Gerald Ford had the opportunity to not-exempt this in 1976 .
Thanks for the steerage...time to get the boat ready for extended cruising. Pardon the pun.
This will never happen. Especially in the modern world where we spend 20 to 30 years of our lives learning how to become a specialist in one field. The government "won" when it took over the schools. They controlled the facts your kids were taught, what I was taught, and for the most part wasted the beginning of our lives with useless information and rote memorization.
The only paper that will stop the government is money. Not the Constitution or the DOI or any other piece of legislation. The majority of people can not spend their time watching the government, and even if they can they won't.
It’s going to be a long, expensive, and messy debate.
