President Obama’s legacy is increasingly in legal jeopardy (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-fix/wp/2015/05/26/obama-courts/)
The judicial branch is calling the Obama administration and its polices, lawless. But we have known since the late 1990s that Obama holds the Constitution with disdain.


President Obama's second-term agenda, it seems, is in the hands of the courts.


Same-sex marriage. Obamacare. Climate change. And now immigration (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/federal-judge-in-texas-deals-legal-blow-to-obamas-immigration-action/2015/02/17/a93cb456-b6b8-11e4-aa05-1ce812b3fdd2_story.html). And in many cases, there is significant doubt about whether his signature initiatives will stand legal scrutiny.



Obama uses Executive Orders to usurp the legislature. So spare me the simple break down of the numbers of EOs issued per president.

At this point what can he really point to that he has done that seems to be working.

That gives us back to back presidents that have little to no accomplishments.

LOL...I like that. Spare you the argument that counters your argument.

Great strategy.

I mentioned that because those claims are red herrings. The number of EOs has nothing whatsoever to do with legislation from the executive branch.

You must have missed the part about policies that were working?

The top of your list

The ACA, not working prices are up service level is down and the court might take most of the people off the system. Plus the really bad stuff had to be postponed until Obama was out of office.

The Stimulus. Totally and complete failure there are 9 million fewer people working today that when the Bamster took office. Biggest waste of a trillion dollars ever

Iraq, Yes that is a real Jem. the middle east policy has the region totally and completely unstable.

Wall Street reform is making it so the Fed has to pump 80 billion a month into the markets to keep them propped up?

So post all of the lists that you want but just like Bush did a lot of things, Nearly all of them were totally and complete failures. the nation can usually weather a storm of a terrible President if the one that follows know how to get things done. It is when you have back to back. like Nixon/Ford / Carter that it takes someone special to turn things around.

I get that.

My point, however, is that Obama's policies have hurt blacks. Not helped.

Actually it is likely the other way around. it looks like the people are going to have to decide between and overly aggressive police force and the street thugs.

They will beg the police to restore calm to the inner cities and that population is largely minority. They will aggressively crack down on them.

Congrats Cigar, your president has set in motion the policies that will bring a new round of oppression to your people
