Romney will repeal Obamacare. Which is a Federal Law. Which you can't do with an executive order. Which makes no sense. (John Kerry, Congress)

Regulation

Repeal Obamacare
Repeal Dodd-Frank and replace with streamlined, modern regulatory framework
Amend Sarbanes-Oxley to relieve mid-size companies from onerous requirements
Initiate review and elimination of all Obama-era regulations that unduly burden the economy

He can grant waivers to the states by executive order, which is what he will do. then he will work to legislatively repeal it. The point of the executive order is to find a fast temporary solution on the first day as a legislative repeal would take a while

But it makes for a great sound bite, which is all Mitt Romney cares about.

God Romney is a tool. Who can take this guy seriously, he makes John Kerry look consistent.

99.9% of all promises made by anyone running for POTUS were promises that could only be delivered if the US Congress cooperated. This is just one example.

Here is the Washington Post tracker of Obama's 2008 campaign promises. You tell me how many of them can be done via executive order. And yet, he promised them in spite of his known inability do any of them on his own authority alone.

If Mitt Romney or any future candidate makes a campaign promise, just make the assumption that legislative cooperation is implied. Otherwise, every president in living memory is guilty of exaggerating their own power to deliver on their promises, including Barack Obama.

It was placed on us illegally and behind closed doors and can be taken out the same way if needed.

Need not to worry, the SC will shut this scam job down for us and we wont have to worry about it anymore.

Totally unconstitutional to force us to buy something.

Romney will have many executive powers he can use to shut it down or stop it from growing like it is planned over the next 2 years.

He is totally correct and will have many powers to shoot this in the foot. Thank goodness.

They can also just not fund it, which has already started. It will require Congress to repeal it completely and Mitt Romney has made that clear, but he can give waivers to all of the states.
