“We’ll do audacious executive action over the course of the rest of the year, I’m confident of that,” said McDonough, explaining that President Obama’s decision not to outline specific executive actions was more about a commitment to process than a lack of willpower.
“Process is your friend, but process also dictates what you can do,” McDonough said. “And we do want to make sure that the executive actions we undertake are not left hanging out there, subject to Congress undoing them.” In addition to gun control, the White House has expressed interest in further unilateral actions on immigration reform, and in working around Congress to close the prison in Guantanamo Bay. But McDonough said the White House is considering executive action on any and all issues, and that the main question President Obama plans to ask himself is “Why not?” “And so that’s the spirit through which we’ll approach this last year,” McDonough said.

This admin is run by blithering idiots. He is so stupid that he doesn't know that there is NOTHING they can do to stop an EO from being undone. The next Pres with the stroke of his pen can undo it all no matter what they say or do.

But in the mean time is there nothing that the majority party can do to throttle this tidal wave of bull shit that emanates from the White House.? I thought there there were suppose to be checks and balances.

Impeachment perhaps. Even if it does stick it will always be on his legacy.

Too many liberal women complain about a Republican war on women while still carrying a greater approval than disapproval of Bill who was impeached for lying about a blowjob. Do you think in 20 years, liberals would remember an Obama impeachment critically?

Thanks to liberal control of the education system and media, in 20 years Obama will probably be hailed as having been the savior of all mankind.
During the Spanish civil war I found myself feeling very strongly that a true history of this war never would or could be written. Accurate figures, objective accounts of what was happening, simply did not exist. And if I felt that even in 1937, when the Spanish Government was still in being, and the lies which the various Republican factions were telling about each other and about the enemy were relatively small ones, how does the case stand now? Even if Franco is overthrown, what kind of records will the future historian have to go upon? And if Franco or anyone at all resembling him remains in power, the history of the war will consist quite largely of “facts” which millions of people now living know to be lies. One of these “facts”, for instance, is that there was a considerable Russian army in Spain. There exists the most abundant evidence that there was no such army. Yet if Franco remains in power, and if Fascism in general survives, that Russian army will go into the history books and future school children will believe in it. So for practical purposes the lie will have become truth.

In no case do you get one answer which is universally accepted because it is true: in each case you get a number of totally incompatible answers, one of which is finally adopted as the result of a physical struggle. History is written by the winners.

His history won't be written by anyone alive today. Right now it is all just opinions. The same future historians will take measure of the Republican party and write that they shirked thier responsibilities.

Currently the Republican party is synonymous in the liberal tongue with "obstructionists".
It disgusts me that they can blame Bush for everything from a hurricane to global warming but when it comes to blame Obama for anything its "oh, the president isn't as powerful as you think", or "the Republicans got in the way", or "he didn't know what he was getting into", or "the establishment blah blah blah".
