Obama reveals himself

Thu., April 19, 2012

We are constantly being warned about the danger of an identity crisis – someone stealing someone else’s identity. We have just been given an example of the ultimate grand theft of identity theft.

President Barack Obama now has taken the identity of an emperor. He is in charge of the executive branch and is constantly telling the legislative branch (Congress) what to do and now he is threatening the judicial branch (Supreme Court) to reach a decision that he wants.

This is particularly perplexing since the president taught constitutional law.
