Can't you just see George Washington sitting around frustrated with these damn checks and balances crap we agreed to a few years back? "No I'm gonna show these federalist snobs one man can and should be trusted"

It's a wonderful life yet these reprobates are a consistent source of frustration and occasionally laughter.

They have never read the constitution; why would we expect them to obey it?

It's amazing they're saying it aloud. I can't be sure, but I'm guessing people in the Exec branch know this is questionable. They just think they're the good guys and these are special times and great people like President Lincoln are willing to push the limits in special times. I'm saying this about the Obama administration and the Bush administration.

I completely disagree with "these are special times" arguments b/c the framers wrote it for the special times, not for boring times when no one is tempted to overreach.

Why don't we just come on over with some tar and feathers? I want to write my own laws too; KEEP YOUR TREASONOUS PEN OUT OF MY LIFE!

Maybe they could secure the border while they wait.

Why should anybody do the hard work of drafting laws when we have a president who picks and choses which provisions he will enforce? Obama must think everyone is as mentally challenged as the people who vote for him.
