No executive order issued?

We are finding out that Obama never even issued an executive order granting amnesty to illegal aliens. There is nothing in writing. His word was enough to make John Boehner bow in submission this week even in the wake of the GOP landslide last month.

When asked by a reporter whether or not he could raise taxes by executive order, Obama laughed and made it clear "that could never happen constitutionally." But what's to stop him? He admitted that he did not have lawful authority to change immigration law. Yet congress won't stop him. Why would they stop him from raising taxes? What if he rescinded the Statehood of GOP leaning States that refused to cooperate and declared them all to be U.S. territories under control of the Federal Government? Would anyone stop him then?

What do you think will be the straw that finally breaks the camel's back and causes someone to defy this man?

Re: No executive order issued?

I'm afraid the current state of America is very similar to the state of the frog put in a pot of cold water. The water begins to heat hotter and hotter, and yet the frog stays. He does not realize he is being cooked alive, until it is too late. He could have jumped at any time and saved his life, but because the water temperature gradually changed, he stayed, and met his demise.

And what do you think will constitute "too late"?

I don't know. I don't claim to be a prophet. However, I believe it will be some sort of circumstance that "NO ONE" will have predicted. God just works that way most of the time.

Obama's favorite president is Lincoln. I don't think it is because of the emancipation proclamation. Lincoln played emperor too.

No. Please get started. I wanna hear this. Let me guess, it should of been up to the states to get rid of slavery, and not the feds?

So you think Lincoln invaded the South to "get rid of slavery".

As I said, don't get me started. I'd have to give you a complete history lesson. Your statement here proves that.

Are you really so out of touch that you are not aware that an executive order was never issued?
