Representative Steven King (R-IA) said on Friday that he would go to court to enjoin Obama's "DREAM Executive Order" from taking effect. Unless and until Congress
passes anything like the DREAM Act, Obama has no right to put it into
effect by Executive Order. So says
King. He also said he would challenge the President by himself, whether
anyone else in Congress joined him or not. (See stories in WND and Newsmax.)
King’s problem with this Executive Order goes far beyond what it does. No
President, nor any State Governor or other executive, has the power to
do what he pleases without checking with his respective legislature.
King said he would act
before Obama has a chance to do even more damage to the Constitution.
King has done this before. Then-Governor Tom Vilsack signed an
Executive Order in 1999, having to do with hiring discrimination in
State government offices. King sued him, and won. A judge said that
Vilsack exceeded his authority with that order. King will rely on his
experience in suing Obama. His lawyers are looking now into:
- Where to sue, and
- Whether he has standing.
This is the first time in recent memory that anyone in Congress has
challenged a Presidential Executive Order. Without challenges like this,
Presidents have for decades seemed to make new law with them and get
away with it. Now, at last, a court might decide whether a President may
do that, and how far he may go.

Invading Kuwait? You must have forgotten that.
Who else lied about Iraq and their wmd's?
Who "bamboozled" Clinton to say these things in 1998, of course, after he briefed and got approval from Congress???
Once again Obama has shown his deep contempt for the American people by assuming they won't see this for the sleazy manipulation of a minority that it is.
Even people in Obama's party are running away from him because of his breathtaking incompetence. As election day nears and Obama continues to panic, we will see more of this contemptible pandering. He is no more a leader than a tail on the back of a jackass which, in poetic irony, is the symbol of his party.

Obama, pelosi, reid.....I can keep going.
To get it straight. Excutive Order was given the President by Congress. (FDR of course... The Democrats ruled then as now). All the Congress needs to do is vote it into oblivion. Frankly it was wrong to begin with but the Democrats pay little attention to the Constitution in the 1sr place. They were anxious to make FDR God....Are you l;istening to me America?
are you an anchor child ?
