To come to that conclusion, you would either have to have an admission by the driver that he was driving over the speed limit, or indisputable proof. In the case of the President, you have neither an admission nor indisputable truth. I am not sure why you are so determined to argue this. You may think that the President broke the law. He thinks he didn't. A tie goes to him because he is innocent until proven guilty. This is a basic principle of American law. But, as so often happens, nothing is really sacred to conservatives when it comes to President Obama. It is amazing that the same people criticizing how teenaged girls behaved at a turkey pardoning once applauded a grown man who interrupted the State of the Union address by calling the President a liar. |

Our Constitution provides for divided government. One provision is that the legislature creates laws--not the President. Obama said last week that he had changed the law. That is against our laws. |

I do not approve of attacking the President's family. My posts have been in support of the fact that other Presidential families have also been attacked--particularly Amy Carter. I did say that my daughter would have behaved like the O girls. |

I do not recall applauding Joe Wilson although he has been proven right. |

He was referring to an executive order which is legal. He did not say, suggest, or allude to breaking a law. If you believe that he acted illegally, take him to court. Again, why are you determined to be judge and jury while touting the Constitution at the same time? If you have read the Constitution close enough to understand divided government, certainly you understand that the President is innocent until proven guilty. Therefore, regardless of your opinion, he is innocent of breaking any laws. |

Pp you responded to. I think Miley Cyrus is most unattractive and don't know who Jennifer Lawrence is but if she looks like Miley, then she, too, is unattractive. |

The constitution specifically states the powers of immigration sit with Congress. |

our last president added a signing statement to pretty much every law that landed on his desk. Where was your outrage? |

As great as it is now. |

Did it change the law? Remember, it is the quality--not the quantity of the EO's |

^^^ But if you are comparing a signing statement, i.e. a tweak, to a law that was passed in Congress, I'd say that the outrage is much less, because the law was passed in Congress, where it belonged.

There is no reason for anyone to comment on how the girls dress. They are usually dressed like most teens. They are also very tall girls. Everything will look short on those legs. My DD is like that, she is all arms and legs and I usually have to buy her styles from Misses section and then shorten them.
The words and tone of what the woman wrote was beyond horrible. I hope she is seen as a liability by the Republicans. Good riddance. I am an independent but this has made me more sympathetic towards Obama. She was not chiding. She was being a bitch. |

i.e. a tweak? Bush used a signing statement to nullify Congress' prohibition of cruel and unusual punishment on detainees, which they passed in the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005. |

Homely like the Bush girls? |

She has an old face. I placed her at 40, not 31. |
