White House Press Secretary Jay Carney predicted that President Barack Obama will "bypass Congress" when necessary in 2014, taking unilateral executive action to carry out his agenda.
Speaking on ABC's "This Week" ahead of Tuesday's State of the Union address, Carney was asked how the president could get things done this year, when Republicans in Congress will no doubt be just as resistant to his policies as they have been in the past.

Couldn't the House start de-funding things in the Executive Branch?

Does Obama not understand that republicans were elected to oppose him? That is their job.

No pens = no executive orders
GENIUS

Scruffy may be looking at this wrong.
Scruffy might not realize that this Presidency is shrinking faster than Scruffy's wonder-dolphin when accidentally viewing Playgirl magazine.
Scruffy might ponder George Will's viewpoint:

quote:
“In baseball you play what’s called small ball — stealing bases, bunting — when you can’t do anything else,” Will said. “This is the miniaturization of the president’s agenda. A 23rd increase in the minimum wage since 1938, that may be a good thing, a bad thing, but it’s of marginal importance to the economy and of no importance to the middle class. Universal pre-school which, as you say, he endorsed last year, we’ve had almost 50 years of experience with Head Start, and the government’s own studies show that the benefits from universal pre-school are a) small and b) evanescent. So, he’ll fall back on, as you say, these executive orders. They’re not just limited; they are often, as the Supreme Court is going to say several times this spring, unconstitutional. So, the shrinkage of the Obama presidency will be on display, I think, Tuesday night.”

So where are Boehner and the Republicans? Shouldn't they be "checking" the illegal actions of the Executive Branch?
In my book, they are just as guilty as Obama due to their inactivity.

Bohener should have the Sergeant-at-Arms arrest Obama when he enters the House chamber.

He acts like he's the first ever POTUS to serve in divided government.

So much for "executing the law".

They won't stop it. If Obama was white he would have already been impeached. People are too scared of the race card..don't believe me? Hell we impeached Clinton for lying about a damn blowjob

Rand Paul looked like he was gonna have an aneurysm in the interview I saw. He will be leading the charge against this bull shite. He properly assessed this as a threat. Hopefully that's all it is, but......

Why not? This is the norm now, and the current Republican leadership will just stand by and watch it happen.
