You do realize that Obama and the country are not one and the same don't you?

Will any of you address the topic instead of useless insults against Obama? They don't help your credibility.

According to the US Constitution. All legislation is to be passed by both chambers of congress and the President. Not some agency, dictating law, policy, rules & regulations, under the presidents orders.
