He is a in mature childish, ignorant bullish person, that must get his way at all cost. And hit the road Jack, if you do not agree with his wishes.

What kind of Person is this let alone a President. He was never going to want to come to terms with any compromise with the other side, and has made his opinions and feelings known.

Never seen such a childish in mature, bratty Person who has got to get their way, he is worse then a little child.

Many of us he has not fooled, and for those of you who have been fooled, feel sorry for you. For that you did not have the foresight, to see thru this person and his BS. He is a pig headed, stubborn child like Person, never seen anyone quite like him.

Do you not see the contradiction in your two sentences?

You are yet another example of our poor educational system.

The writers of the Constitution intended for Congress to be the most powerful branch of government.

New laws are first introduced as "bills" in the two bodies of Congress. A bill has to be approved by both the House and the Senate through a series of votes and debates. Once Congress has approved a bill, it is sent to the president. The president may sign it into law, send it back to Congress to be changed, or veto the bill.

Abuse of power or failure to uphold these responsibilities cannot be tolerated. The Constitution gives the House of Representatives the right to impeach. Impeachment means that a charge of misconduct is filed. A majority of the members of the House must vote for these charges in order to impeach the president.

After the charges of misconduct are filed, the Senate has the power to try impeachment cases like a court. 2/3rds of the senators must vote for conviction.

The Obama presidency: The House passed bipartisan bills and sent them to the Senate. Harry Reid acted as Obama's blocker on bills he knew Obama would not like. Obama then accused R's of obstructionists and projected Obama's do nothing policy onto Republicans.

Just like Democrats passed Obamacare with only Democratic votes, Obama threatens to bypass congress playing politics at the expense of Americans, acting as a dictator who gets angry dare anyone disagree with him. Of course Valerie Jarret (born in Iran) his guiding him.

By the way, he is angry at you.. he counted on his useful idiots to show up at the polls.

It's not Obama's fault. He's been the same person his whole life. The fault lies with the people who voted for him just so they could feel good about themselves (this does not include the people who totally buy his radical lefty ideology) and the media that covered for him. The latter didn't begin to whine until he started going after them or cutting them out and they're only half out of the bag now because to come fully out, they'd have to admit they were stupid, blind and biased back in 2008.

The majority has spoken.

It isn't about what "his people" want.

The only thing he will sign without congress, is his death warrant.
