Obama is an arrogant, egotistical, small-minded, spoiled child who has gotten his way for many years and needs to be reminded that this country will not stand to serve narcissism from anyone.
Thank God, and I do mean the Almighty One that sits in judgment of ALL living souls regardless of what religion or faith they may espouse, that Speaker Boehner has finally come to his senses and is showing some backbone and guts in telling this would-be dictator what he will be up against should he persist in violating our U. S. Constitution for his own purposes and evil ends.
He thinks that all government money is his to distribute or dole out irresponsibly without care of how much bad governance or incredible debt he places on the backs of the good, honest, hard-working citizens of this country. And I am definitely talking about millions of illegal aliens whom he has designated to be recipients of the master of all free rides EVER in the history of America and by his personal directive instead of by Congressional ruling.
Now if we can depend on the frequent flip-flopping Speaker Boehner to stand his ground as he stated in advance of the State of the Union address when he warned that the cocky, still never proven qualified presidential office holder, that he (Obama) would run into a brick wall should he attempt to bypass Congress by means of more ill-advised executive actions.
Boehner was quoted by FoxNews.com on January 28, 2014 online as saying "We have a Constitution. We abide by it. If he tries to ignore it, he's going to run into a brick wall."
As we all know, Boehner has spoken very forcibly before in a contentious mode only to weasel out of any commitments or "proposed" commitments when the actions were called into play. Which Speaker Boehner will get the final say?
FoxNews.com, Domestic Politics in the article hinted that the Speaker's actions may not be as forceful as his communications on this issue, when saying "the president took a first step in that direction on Tuesday, announcing an executive order raising the minimum wage for new federal contract workers to $10.10 an hour, from $7.25. Obama will use the move to apply additional pressure on Congress to approve a similar increase for all workers.
"Boehner, speaking later to reporters, said Obama likely has the authority to raise the wage for federal contractors. He downplayed the impact the move would have. "Let's understand something: this affects not one current contract, it only affects future contracts with the federal government. And so I think the question is, how many people, Mr. President will this executive action actually help? I suspect the answer is somewhere close to zero," he said."
That sounds suspiciously similar to other "weasel" actions taken by Boehner before in incidents where many of his conservative colleagues had hoped for a "gutsy" response but got more feather duster applications.
So my suppositions are that both Obama and Boehner are on center stage where the public reaction will be closely watched for obstinacies from Obama in his usual dictator like diktats; and a melting backbone from the Speaker for a "business-as-usual" slinking from responsibilities.
We will all find out just what Obama has on his mind and whether he will acknowledge the stern warning against choosing to ignore and bypass the laws set down as a result of the United States Constitution or the far leftist socio-communist dogma; or should that latter part be reality, if Boehner will proceed to bring proper actionables against a sitting President.
