Sadly, there is a long history of Presidents on both sides of the aisle doing exactly the same thing. Under Bush, many of us were complaining very loudly that he was aggregating power to the Executive Branch at a faster pace than any President in history. His warrantless wire tapping, domestic spying, and FISA laws and regulations were examples. Obama is doing the same thing. He's using his own discretion to determine what laws to execute.

My own view is that the Executive Branch should execute all laws on the books, until Congress passes new laws abrograting previous ones or the Judicial Branch decides existing laws are unconstitutional.

In many ways, our generation is witness to the fastest erosion of our Constitutional Freedoms and the fastest destruction of the foundation of free markets and capitalism in history. It's all very sad and very avoidable.
