So... SC Judges on the right are lackeys, but those on the left aren't when there's a left-wing President?
Explain the difference.
Name ONE President who HASN'T ignored the Constitution. (see below)
The Supreme Court makes those decisions, stupid.
What... you think all laws came from the burning bush or the stone tablets?
Gawd, what an idiot.
Name the laws Trump is ignoring and tell us that THAT argument in front of the Supreme Court is unprecedented.
Burning the American Flag was NOT written in stone, before the Supreme Court handed down a decision on it 35 fucking years ago.
How many Amendments are you fags on the left trying to get reversed, because they're "old" in your eyes?
WHO ever said a Amendment was NEVER supposed to be argued again OR reversed?
Obama Ignored What The Constitution Says SO Many Fucking Times
===============================================================================
800) Hundreds of thousands of machine guns and rifles that Obama gave to Afghanistan were "missing"
In July 2014, it was reported that hundreds of thousands of machine guns and rifles that Obama had given to Afghanistan were
"missing."
Cronyism, Hypocrisy, Waste, Etc.
801) Obama illegally ignored Obamacare author Jonathan Gruber's comments that subsidies only apply to state exchanges
On January 18, 2012, Jonathan Gruber, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology economist who helped write Obamacare, said:
"What's important to remember politically about this is if you're a state and you don't set up an exchange, that means your
citizens don't get their tax credits."
You can see him saying it in this video. Link set to start video at 31:25, the relevant point: https://www.youtube.com/watch?
v=GtnEmPXEpr0&feature=youtu.be&t=31m25s
On January 10, 2012, Gruber said:
"... if your governor doesn't set up an exchange, you're losing hundreds of millions of dollars of tax credits to be delivered to
your citizens..."
You can hear him saying it in this video. Link set to start at 1:16, the relevant point: https://www.youtube.com/watch?
v=LbMmWhfZyEI&t=1m16s
So how is it that the federal government is giving subsidies through the federal exchange?
It's because under the corrupt leadership of President Obama, the IRS illegally gave itself new power without approval from
Congress.
802) Paid dozens of federal paralegals $60,000 to $80,000 a year even though they had no work to do
On July 31, 2014, the Washington Post reported:
Dozens of federal employees at an obscure agency that handles appeals of patent applications went years with so little work to do
that they collected salaries - and even bonuses - while they surfed the Internet, did laundry, exercised and watched television, an
investigation has found.
The employees, paralegals making $60,000 to $80,000 a year, were idle with full knowledge of their immediate bosses and multiple
layers of managers and judges who "sat on their hands" waiting for work to give them, a year-long probe by the Commerce Department
inspector general's office uncovered.
803) Obama illegally allowed the IRS to strike a deal with atheists to monitor churches
In July 2014, it was reported that Obama had illegally allowed the IRS to strike a deal with atheists to monitor churches.
804) Refused to prosecute federal employees who committed time and attendance fraud
In July 2014, it was reported that Obama had refused to prosecute federal employees who committed time and attendance fraud.
805) Used the Department of Homeland Security to raid the home of someone who was not suspected of terrorism
In July 2014, the Department of Homeland Security raided the home of Jennifer Brinkley of North Carolinian, even though she was not
suspected of terrorism.
806) Falsely accused the Pennsylvania State Police of "employment discrimination against women" because it held male and female
applicants to the same standard
In July 2014, Obama's Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against the Pennsylvania State Police, accusing it of "employment
discrimination against women," because it held male and female applicants to the same standard.
807) Helped Hamas obtain the construction materials that it used to dig its terror tunnels
In August 2014, it was reported that the Obama administration had helped Hamas obtain the construction materials that it used to
dig its terror tunnels.
808) Obama's Securities and Exchange Commission bypassed the courts, which is unconstitutional

a federal report on torture.
812) Criticized corporations for using legal methods to reduce their taxes
In August 2014, Obama criticized corporations for using legal methods to reduce their taxes.
813) Illegally planned to change the tax laws without approval from Congress
Article I, section 7 of the U.S. Constitution states:
"All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives"
President Obama took the following oath at both of his inaugurations:
"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my
Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
You can see him taking the oath here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KvEANPi1c6k
In addition, Obama has a Harvard Law degree.
Furthermore, Obama taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School for twelve years.
However, in August 2014, Associated Press reported:
"Aiming to sidestep a logjam in Congress, the Obama administration is looking for steps it could take on its own to prevent
American companies from reincorporating overseas to shirk U.S. taxes, officials said Tuesday."
814) "US inspectors general say gov't has blocked access"
In August 2014, Associated Press reported:
US inspectors general say gov't has blocked access
Independent watchdogs of dozens of federal agencies decried on Tuesday what they said were Obama administration efforts to delay or
stall their investigations.
A letter to Congress from a broad cross-section of inspectors general cites specific instances in which watchdogs for the Justice
Department, Environmental Protection Agency and the Peace Corps said they were denied timely access to documents and other
information while doing their investigations. The letter says other inspectors general have faced similar obstacles, and that
congressional action may be needed to ensure cooperation from government agencies.
815) Lied about the reason U.S. corporations incorporate overseas
In August 2014, Obama said the reason U.S. corporations incorporate overseas is that
"They're basically renouncing their citizenship and declaring they're based somewhere else, just to avoid paying their fair share."
Despite Obama's claim, these corporations are still paying taxes to the U.S. government on the profits that they earn in the U.S.
The only tax they are avoiding is the U.S. tax on the profits that they earn overseas. But the U.S. is the only major country in
the world that taxes overseas profits.
816) Helped one corporation use a certain tax loophole, but later criticized other corporations for using the exact same tax
loophole
In 2009, the Obama administration helped Delphi, a U.S. corporation, reduce its taxes by declaring it to be a British company.
However, in 2014, Obama criticized other U.S. corporations for doing the exact same thing.
817) Said we should pass an equal pay law, while ignoring the fact that such a law has already been in place since 1963
In August 2014, Obama said we should pass a law that requires men and women to be paid the same for doing the same work. However,
such a law has already been in place since 1963.
818) Bombed Iraq in August 2014, even though the Iraq War had allegedly ended in December 2011
In August 2014, Obama bombed Iraq, even though the Iraq War had allegedly ended in December 2011.
819) Lied about the reason he sent U.S. troops to Iraq
In June 2014, when Obama sent U.S. troops to Iraq, he said they would only have an advisory role, and would not participate in
combat. However, in August 2014, he ordered those troops to bomb Iraq.
820) Lied about which President removed U.S. troops from Iraq
Obama repeatedly gave himself credit for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq that happened in late 2011. However, in August
2014, he blamed the troop withdrawal on Bush. I'm not going to say which of Obama's two statements is true, and which is a lie. But
one of them must be a lie.
821) Illegally tried to block a Freedom of Information release of the video that shows Michael Brown committing theft and assault
On August 15, 2014, NRP reported:
Jackson said he had gotten numerous Freedom of Information Act requests from the media to release the video. "I had to release
it," he said.
"I had been sitting on it and too many people put in FOIA requests for it and I had to release it," he said.
On August 16, 2014, CBS News reported:
Feds opposed releasing Ferguson robbery video
Federal authorities opposed Friday's release of a surveillance video showing a man resembling Michael Brown committing a robbery at
a convenience store in Ferguson, Mo., CBS News correspondent Bob Orr reports.
The Justice Department asked Ferguson police not to release the video, believing that it would roil the community further, and were
able to successfully prevent the video from being released Thursday, the U.S. law enforcement official said.
Friday's release occurred over the objection of federal authorities, the official said.
Here is the video that Obama illegally tried to prevent people from seeing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2z5-H8NSGA
822) Obama sued Bank of America because it did exactly what he had told it to do. Obama then gave some of the settlement money to
left wing groups that he had worked for.
While working as a "community organizer," Obama filed lawsuits which forced banks to give mortgages to people with bad credit and
low incomes. As a result, many of these people ended up defaulting on their mortgages. As their attorney, Obama collected $23,000
in legal fees for himself.
Then in April 2013, during Obama's second term as President, the Washington Post reported that President Obama was still pressuring
banks "to make home loans to people with weaker credit."
However, in August 2014, it was reported that the Obama administration had sued Bank of America for giving mortgages to people who
could not afford to pay them back, and the bank had agreed to pay $16.6 billion in order to avoid further prosecution from the
federal government.
In August 2014, it was reported that Obama had given some of the settlement money from Bank of America to left wing organizations
including the National Council of La Raza, Operation Hope, and National Community Reinvestment Coalition. These groups used to be
known, collectively, as ACORN. In the past, these organizations had pressured banks to give mortgages to people who could not
afford to pay them back.
In addition, Obama had worked with ACORN in the past. Obama had represented them in a lawsuit where they tried to get Illinois to
adopt a "motor-voter" law. On top of that, Obama had taught leadership training sessions for ACORN. Also, Obama had worked as an
organizer for Project Vote, an ACORN offshoot. Furthermore, Obama had been on the board of directors of the Woods Fund when it gave
ACORN $75,000 in 2001, and $70,000 in 2002. Finally, during the 2008 primary campaign, Obama's campaign had given Citizens Services
Inc., an ACORN affiliate, more than $800,000 for "get out the vote" efforts.
823) 47 out of 73 Inspectors General wrote a letter to Congress complaining about Obama's lack of transparency
In August 2014, 47 out of 73 Inspectors General wrote a letter to Congress complaining about Obama's lack of transparency. The
letter can be read here.
824) Illegally treated independently owned McDonald's franchises as a big corporation

825) Broke his promise not to take any vacations during his presidency

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68WS5B19LC4
826) Operated an illegal lottery
During Obama's 2008 campaign, he used a lottery to raise money, which is illegal.

In August 2014, it was reported that the Veterans Administration had spent $399 million of Obama's "stimulus" on green energy while
patients were dying due to lack of care.
829) Obama's so-called "recovery" actually hurt blacks, women, and the poor
In August 2014, the Wall St. Journal wrote:
If the Obama recovery had been as strong as the average of the previous 10 postwar recoveries, 13.9 million more Americans would be
working today and the average real per capita income of every man, woman and child in America would be $6,308 higher.
But the real scorecard on the Senate Democrats elected in 2008 is in the Census Bureau's Current Population Survey data. While all
Democrats claimed to be champions of the middle class and defenders of minorities and women, census data show how their program did
not live up to their campaign promises.
Since the Senate Democratic Class of 2008 took control, the average real income of the poorest one-fifth of American families has
declined every year, falling to $15,534 in 2012 from $16,962 in 2008 (the 2013 data will be released Sept. 16). The average real
income of the lowest quintile of Americans is now below the level it was in 1968, the year when the War on Poverty began its
spending surge.
The next-highest income quintile, often referred to as the working class, has also experienced a continuous decline in real income
since January 2009. The average income of these Americans has fallen 6.5% and is now $1,182 lower than it was when President Reagan
left office.
The third quintile-America's middle class-has seen its average income decline to $62,464 from $65,672. More than half of this
decline has occurred since the recovery officially began in the second quarter of 2009.
Under the Obama administration, the median income of women has fallen more during the recovery than it did during the recession, an
unprecedented economic failure in postwar America.
The real median income of African-American households has fallen by 9.5%, more than any other major census classification.
830) Obama criticized local police for using the military gear that he had given them
In 2013, the Obama administration gave nearly $450 million of military gear to local police. However, in 2014, Obama criticized
local police for actually using that military gear.
831) Obama's "job training" program left many participants unemployed and in debt

debt.
832) Obama helped fund the construction of a solar power plant that incinerated as many as 28,000 birds each year
Obama gave Ivanpah a $1.6 billion federal loan guarantee to build a solar power plant. After the plant began operation, it
incinerated as many as 28,000 birds each year. During an early inspection, it was discovered that the birds killed by the plant
included "a peregrine falcon, a grebe, two hawks, four nighthawks, and a variety of warblers and sparrows."
833) Illegally ignored a subpoena which had ordered the release of 1,300 pages of information on Fast and Furious

he had been subpoenaed to do so.

hummus
836) Set limits on how much milk and juice students could drink at school cafeterias
Obama limited elementary school students to eight ounces of milk or juice at school cafeterias, and limited middle school students
to twelve ounces.
837) Forced school cafeterias to throw away more than one billion dollars worth of perfectly good fruits and vegetables
Obama required that fruits and vegetables be placed on students' lunch trays, even if the students did not want to eat them. The
food that they didn't eat was then thrown into the garbage. In September 2014, it was reported that Obama had forced school
cafeterias to throw away more than one billion dollars worth of perfectly good fruits and vegetables.
838) Exempted his own children from the very same food rules that he forced everyone else's children to follow
While Obama was busy forcing everyone else's children to obey a very strict and very ridiculous set of food rules, he allowed his
own daughter to have bacon and eggs covered in a buttery sauce, with no fruits and no vegetables.
839) Falsely claimed that his "Cash for Clunkers" would help the auto industry
Although Obama claimed that his "Cash for Clunkers" program would help the auto industry, it actually hurt the auto industry,
because it encouraged buyers to purchase vehicles that were less profitable than what they would have purchased if the program had
not been in effect.
840) 46% of doctors gave Obamacare a "D" or an "F"
In a September 2014 survey by the Physicians Foundation, 46% of doctors gave Obamacare a "D" or an "F."
841) Spent taxpayers' money on elevator operators

so great."
In September 2014, when Obama's approval rating was only 35%, he said:
"All around the country, wherever I see folks, they always say, oh, Barack, we're praying for you - boy, you're so great."

vending machine to sell honey buns with 590 calories.
844) Illegally transported two illegal aliens
In October 2014, Obama gave two illegal aliens a ride. Giving a ride to an illegal alien is a crime that could get the person as
much as five years in prison.
845) Falsely said it was "unlikely" that anyone from Africa with Ebola would fly to the U.S. because the "necessary precautions"
were being taken
On September 16, 2014, Obama said:
"First and foremost, I want the American people to know that our experts, here at the CDC and across our government, agree that the
chances of an Ebola outbreak here in the United States are extremely low. We've been taking the necessary precautions, including
working with countries in West Africa to increase screening at airports so that someone with the virus doesn't get on a plane for
the United States. In the unlikely event that someone with Ebola does reach our shores, we've taken new measures so that we're
prepared here at home."
However, on September 19, 2014, just three days after Obama made the above statement, the only thing that Liberian Ebola patient
Thomas Eric Duncan had to do to get past these "necessary precautions," was to lie on an airport questionnaire. After Duncan lied,
he was allowed to fly from Liberia to Dallas, Texas.
846) Refused to answer reporter's question about whether or not the first person diagnosed with Ebola in the U.S. was a U.S.
citizen
On September 30, 2014, during a press conference, the Obama administration refused to answer a reporter's question about whether or
not an Ebola patient who traveled from Liberia to Dallas, Texas, was a U.S. citizen. Afterward, the Liberian government identified
the patient as Thomas Eric Duncan, a Liberian citizen.
847) Allowed people under "quarantine" for having had contact with an Ebola patient to go to the store
Although the Centers for Disease Control had placed people who had come into contact with Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan under
"quarantine," it allowed them to go to the store during their so-called "quarantine."
848) As President, Obama urged Congress to reauthorize the Export-Import Bank and said it "pays for itself," after having
previously referred to it as "corporate welfare" during his election campaign
During his 2008 election campaign, Obama said the Export-Import Bank was "corporate welfare." However, in 2014, he urged Congress
to reauthorize it, and said it "pays for itself."
849) Cornel West said of Obama: "He posed as a progressive and turned out to be counterfeit. We ended up with a Wall Street
presidency, a drone presidency."
Cornel West, a professor at Union Theological Seminary, said of Obama:
"He posed as a progressive and turned out to be counterfeit. We ended up with a Wall Street presidency, a drone presidency."

Vineyard.

856) Falsely said that a travel ban on people from Ebola infected countries could make the Ebola outbreak worse
In October 2014, CDC Director Tom Frieden said that a travel ban on people from Ebola infected countries could make the Ebola
outbreak worse. However, the first people to contract Ebola in the U.S. got it from Thomas Eric Duncan, a Liberian Ebola patient
who had flown to the U.S.
857) Falsely told nurse who had cared for Ebola patient and who had a fever that it was OK for her to fly on a commercial flight
In October 2014, the CDC told Amber Vinson, a nurse who had cared for Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan, and who had a fever, that
it was OK for her to fly on a commercial flight. However, after she took the flight, she was diagnosed with Ebola, and the CDC
started to monitor the 132 passengers.
858) Lied about the results of an Ebola study that had been funded by his own administration
After a federally funded study concluded that there was a nearly 25% chance of Ebola reaching the U.S. in September 2014, Obama

"First and foremost, I want the American people to know that our experts, here at the CDC and across our government, agree that the
chances of an Ebola outbreak here in the United States are extremely low."
859) Said you can give, but can't get, Ebola on a bus

voter"
In October 2013, Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber said:
"This bill was written in a tortured way to make sure CBO did not score the mandate as taxes. If CBO scored the mandate as taxes,
the bill dies. Okay, so it's written to do that. In terms of risk rated subsidies, if you had a law which said that healthy people
are going to pay in - you made explicit healthy people pay in and sick people get money, it would not have passed... Lack of
transparency is a huge political advantage. And basically, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically
that was really really critical for the thing to pass....Look, I wish Mark was right that we could make it all transparent, but I'd
rather have this law than not."

have approval from Congress.
896) In Obama's own words, he has declared himself to be "emperor of the United States"
