Lawlessness in the White House

February 5, 2014 By Debbie Young

President Obama simply ignores laws he doesn’t like, even ones he has signed. Here as Paul Ryan explains to George Stephanopoulos, “We have an increasingly lawless presidency where he (Obama) is actually doing the job of Congress, writing new policies and new laws without going through Congress. Presidents don’t write laws, Congress does.” Mr. Ryan goes on to comment on the pope, capitalism and crony capitalism, and how the pope is not setting the debate on tackling poverty, but rather inviting the debate.

Mr. Ryan explained that the main obstacle to a bipartisan reform is that too many Republicans believe Mr. Obama will simply ignore laws he doesn’t like—even one the President signs. “We have an increasingly lawless presidency where he is actually doing the job of Congress, writing new policies and new laws without going through Congress. Presidents don’t write laws, Congress does. And when he does things like he did in health care, delaying mandates that the law said was supposed to occur when they were supposed to occur, that’s not his job,” Mr. Ryan said. “Here’s the issue that all Republicans agree on: We don’t trust the President to enforce the law.”
