"I haven't lost that point at all, in fact I raised it right at the beginning of the conversation -"

Then why try to come up with a president having the right to ignore laws they don't agree with? Because allowing the executive that kind of power negates the whole concept of checks and balances. Either Congress has the right to restrain the executive, or they don't. If they don't, they why do they exist? Because allowing the executive to negate the legislative on a whim means that the legislative branch is just wasting oxygen. Hmm, now admittedly an argument can made for that regardless, but we are talking about on paper.
