0bama: I'll break the laws I sign to keep violating the Constitution

What are they? That Congress has asked to be notified if U.S. troops
are placed under foreign command. It does not ban the practice of
placing U.S. troops under foreign generals; it simply requires that
Congress be notified beforehand. Yet Obama whines the bill he
signed “disallows the expenditure of funds ‘for any United Nations
peacekeeping mission that will involve United States Armed Forces under
the command or operational control of a foreign national,’ unless
my military advisers have advised that such an involvement is in the
national interest, and unless I have made the same recommendation to the
Congress.”

Placing U.S. troops under foreign command has been controversial for
decades — and had been unthinkable for more than 100 years after the
ratification of the Constitution. Then-Congressman Doug Bereuter,
R-Nebraska, said on the House floor in 1995, “There is a serious question whether foreign command can ever be constitutional.” Even those on the Right who would allow the possibility do so only under limited circumstances. Liberals in the Justice Department have argued for the president’s unlimited use of the military, under UN command,
just as long. Evidently this president views Congressmen asking him for
notification when he is violating their war-making powers beyond the
pale.

Obama is also livid Congressional Republicans have “once again
included provisions that would bar the use of appropriated funds for
transfers of Guantanamo detainees into the United States.” Obama
threatened to use executive powers to bring Guantanamo Bay detainees to the mainland last December, before backing down.

Altogether, these acts, Obama writes, represent “constitutionally impermissible forms of congressional aggrandizement.”

Obama had criticized George W. Bush for using signing statements (rightly, in my opinion) but began using them himself shortly into his first year in office. As this authorthe first to report, since losing control of Congress, Obama has ruled by executive order, regulation, and federal fiats, side-stepping Congress altogether. was

This kind of move shows just how shameless Obama is: He is willing to
use a signing statement to ignore provisions of a law he signed in
order to preserve his ability to engage in a practice that almost
certainly violates the U.S. Constitution. Quin Hillyer at The American Spectator summarizes:

"This isn’t just a matter of choosing how to interpret
unclear provisions of a law; this is explicitly refusing to abide by
clear-as-day provisions in a law he just signed. As I have written
repeatedly, this man has dangerously authoritarian tendencies. He is a
menace."

Obama is a menace to our freedoms that must be removed from office.
