wonder if anyone at Harvard ever told him that it is Congress who makes the Laws,not the "King" in the White House?

He sure knows little about the Constitution for a 'Constitutional Scholar'!

He knows little about anything that can't be printed on a teleprompter!

A POTUS thinking he can run the most power nation on earth by himself so only sees fit to attend 41% of his PDB's (presidential daily briefings) where he sits with his generals, heads of state, security advisors and others to discuss what's going on in the world. Perhaps that' explains why he's always saying he "only heard about it on the news"..... because he simply doesn't care to attend or do his actual job, opting instead for his golf or fundraising instead of the needs of the country and its people

he has a constitutional law degree, Im sure he understands it better than most,,,lol


I wonder if his critics did well in school with reading comprehension,,,as nothing about 'america isn't congress' is unconstitutional,,


and in fact 'America isn't washington' is in DIRECT CONFLICT With some idea of being a 'king'


as it is saying AMERICA is the totality of us all and not one person or branch,,,,

Seems everyone knows that but your king

And if Congress and Washington aren't representative "of the people", employed to do their bidding, it sure explains a lot wouldn't you say?

That Degree is Hearsay,since all those Records are sealed on the behest of "His Imperial Majesty Barack Obama the First"!
and so far he sure hasn't acted in a way that shows that he is the holder of such a Degree!

I'm not sure where the confusion in this highly edited (and removed from all context) statement is stemming.


His original campaign was run on the premise of "Change", in which he told the voters that he would bring just that to Washington; that things would no longer be "Business As Usual" on Capitol Hill.

"Whether we like it or not", he's done just that...and not JUST because his skin hue is different from anyone who's ever been POTUS, before. By passing "Obamacare", he put a dent in the "Let Them Eat Cake" philosophy that runs rampant within lifetime career politicians. He's changed the way the world relies on us to send our people to die for their causes. His latest big-ticket item is to address our immigration laws.

"Change".

When put back into its proper context and when coupled with other (snippets of) speeches made recently, he's reminding the U.S. voters that we DO have some sort of say in policies when voting for those who will represent our voices. Just yesterday, he made a speech in which he indicated the upcoming elections ARE a referendum on his policies...both those which have been put into action and those still on the table.


He's galvanizing his party's voter base to 'Get Out the Vote', just like Republicans are galvanizing theirs...AND he's using the Republican party's own words TO do it.


*Odd* how once again, it's somehow *different* when he does/says it.

Yes... The voters in each state that sent these people to congress for representation are not America.



Oh wait... I forgot.. this is a democracy...


We have a general election in which the people with the most votes nationally are sent to congress..

So with that correction on my part I can certainly understand the narrative that they are not America and are simply the majority that does not necessarily represent America in totality.


I am very happy that I read the profound posts on this site to help clarify the obvious misconception that congress represents the states or districts that elected them..

Nahhhhh...French is not one of the two official languages of Kenya, so obviously Obama wouldn't/couldn't say it.

ok I showed this to my spanish secretary and she passed this all around... they had fun with this... it was a bit slow today

they picked up on the french. the king rules alone... but one of em said the king has no clothes and speaks with forked tongue in english. she's tex mex indian so this went back and forth and the closest they could come with for forked was tenada or True Spanish tenaza meaning pincher...out of their dictionary.

I asked if that rolled off the tounge and then they came up with

this... {spanish}

El Rey No Tiene Ropa, Y Habla Con Una Lengua De Culebra

the king has no clothes and speaks with tongue of snake

When you ask Obama what the House, Senate and Supreme Court is his response is, "What's that?". What makes it worse is that Obama was a Senator! Oh wait, he's a Senator that voted "Present" more then any other US Senator or missed votes all together.

what explains headlines is the authors perception and slant

the supreme court is nine people,, far from MOST

and an administration is several branches of government and all those within it , far from being Obama personally

that's false,,,, as I said before, Im sure he is more aware than MOST of what those entities are and their purpose and authority

so him being a senator has nothing to do with a claim that is false in the first place

We have witnessed the ultimate spin possible!laugh

Correction.

The headlines are the facts concerning rulings of Obama's unconstitutionality!

The Supreme Court interprets the Constitution which governs every human being in the United States.

The administration is ONE branch of government specifically directed by the POTUS!
