He ignores the inconvenient laws and enforces convenient laws (those that reward his friends or punish his enemies) and pretends that other laws exist or existing laws let him do whatever he wants to do.

Despite his prestigious position on the Harvard Law Review, there is hardly any evidence that he has ever read a law. He seems to know about the US Constitution, however, as he has referenced it as a charter of negative liberties. Who is it negative for? Obama and his method of governance.

We did a wait and see and now we know the results… Something like 30,000 emails of hate and discontent did a nice job of changing their mind before it was too late. The order has officially been rescinded… for now.

(they were actually surprised of how few supporters they had)

Because: a) the emperor has a pen
and b) the emperor has a phone
The ATF is merely acting in another move to extend the emperor’s control over the levers of power whether or not he has expressed his desire to do so. There will be no “smoking gun”.
Besides, what recourse is there to oppose the emperor if the emperor cannot be impeached or defunded?
