And, for the record, the Supreme Court didn't say Obama abused his powers. That part was editorial.
Lets hope they check those powers.

Barack was specifically told that what he was doing was illegal but decided to roll the dice in the courts. He lost! Time to step down for the good of the country.

Barack is dangerous for the republic. He needs to be removed.

Wow, you went straight to RWNJ on that one.

It was a good ruling on the Courts part.

However, it's one that would not have been needed if the Senate, and the House as well, wouldn't use parliamentary foolishness like pro-forma sessions. Either they are in session, or they aren't. Having someone com-in once every couple of days to bang a gavel to you can remain "in-session" isn't doing the people's business. It's an obstructionary move designed so you won't do your job and confirm appointees.
