Preserve, protect, and ignore

Posted by Basil on March 18, 2010 at 7:16 am

During his interview with Fox News’ Bret Baier, the president said “I don’t spend a lot of time worrying about what the procedural rules are in the House or the Senate.”

The president isn’t concerned about other branches of government following the Constitution?

It’s not like he’s sworn an oath to preserve, protect, or defend the Constitution or anything.

Maybe Obama thought the oath was to “preserve, protect, and ignore” the Constitution. That would explain a lot.

    Maybe that’s why he always voted ‘Present’ when he was a Senator, he didn’t understand what it the world was going on.

    “Let me be clear, the ends justify the means.”

    Once again, IMAO’s political correspondent nails it.

    The Democrat Party is going to have to disown him to survive.

    I dunno; he does provide the answer to the eternal question, “Let’s send it up the flagpole and see who salutes it.”

    Oooops, wrong dang thread. I hang my head in shame in that even Obama is prolly capable of making a blog post.

    [Hey, don't sweat it. All the posts I do sort of look and read alike: "Obama bad. Arrrrrgh." - B.]

    Oh, is that what he said? I couldn’t hear very well, since I was shouting obscenties and Liar! and Git ‘im Bret! at the television.

    “Constitution? Constitution? We don’ need no stinkin’ Constitution!!”

    When has law and rules ever stopped a criminal?

  8. Live Free Or Die says:

    Perhaps O-bah-muhh is too worried about the victims of the Earthquake in Hawaii.

    Give it a few more months and Barry will just write us a new, very different constitution, complete with a little symbol made out of an “O” at the top of it. And Keith Olbermann will cry tears of joy…and insanity.

    DUUUH WON never gave a sh*t about what happened in the Senate anyway.

  11. DeckApe says:

    I’m starting to make a list of all the laws I intend to ignore in the future.

    You know, I found it real hard to give this post the 5 it deserved. Anything with that arrogant sob’s face on it almost always get a 1 or a no vote.

    Hey, He’s just the president. It’s not like he’s teaching constitutional law at Harvard! … Mmmm… What’s that? Oh never mind.

    I’m a big fan of IMAO and start every day by reading your blog. I’m also a former poli sci prof. If your readers want to read a sober analysis of Obama’s “parliamentary procedures don’t matter,” go to:
