In our system of divided government, Congress passes laws and the President implements them. President Obama, a former constitutional law professor, seems to have forgotten this notion of separation of powers.

Standard & Poor’s (S&P) shifted their outlook on the United States’ long-term AAA credit rating from “stable” to “negative,” citing the unlikely bridging of partisan divides on serious fiscal reform until after the 2012 elections. This is the first time since Pearl Harbor that the long-term outlook has been negative. Nikola Swann, S&P’s credit analyst, […]
“We’re not going to use signing statements as a way of doing an end-run around Congress.” That was then-presidential candidate Barack Obama in 2008 pledging to not issue signing statements as qualifiers to bills Congress passes.

After two years, the Obama Administration may finally acknowledge the 800 pound gorilla in the room – a monstrosity that can no longer be ignored.

This is a bit ironic considering what prolific fundraisers they have been. President Obama raised $750 million for his 2008 campaign and is expected to raise $1 billion for his re-election […]
The reported budget deal between Obama, Reid, and Boehner is set to cut $38.5 billion, but did you know that in the eight days it took to reach that deal the national debt increased by $54.1 billion? Last week was a step in the right direction with the budget actually being cut, but the deal […]
The Washington Post, of all publications, calls out Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi for her “absurd” and “invented” claims on the effect of compromising with Republicans on the budget. Earlier in the week, Pelosi said that 6 million seniors would be “deprived of meals” if Republicans had their way in the ongoing budget negotiations. The Washington […]
What a difference a day makes. Today President Obama is gassing up Air Force One and heading out of Washington as a government shutdown looms. But just yesterday President Obama said, “Myself, Joe Biden, my team we are prepared to meet for as long as possible to get this resolved.” (And we all know how […]
