Bloomberg's Jonathan Allen: We Don't Know The Constitutionality of E.O. Until Obama Does It

JONATHAN ALLEN, BLOOMBERG: I talked to a Ted Cruz aide today, they think that there's a whole body of things in their view that President Obama has done that are in Ted Cruz's words, lawless. So I think that this is the tip of the iceberg.

CHRIS MATTHEWS, HARDBALL: Does he ask her about all the things [Obama]'s done in the past, or is it better to hit her hard with what he thinks he says he's going to do, go to the future, go to the million person, the seven million person, we don't know how many people are going to be included in this executive order?

ALLEN: We don't. And we can't judge the constitutionality of it of course until we see what it says. And I also don't think she's going to get a nomination hearing until 2015. So the president is likely to make this order and it will be in the past by the time we see her appear before the [Senate] Judiciary Committee.....

Its an even money bet that Obama will try to pull of amnesty as Presidential “Pardons.”

You know who’s a retard - Johnathan Turley.

On the question of impeachment - “Obama has committed no high crimes and misdemeanors”

He’s been hitting the bottle. Reminds me of a fish in a fish bowl - would like to think bigger but his dedication to financial success prevents him from being a bigger man.

Tool.

Hope you read this John, if that’s your real name.

Amazing how MSNBC commentators are actually speaking somewhat positively about Ted Cruz in this interview.

“We won’t know what’s in it until we pass it.”

I’m catching a familiar whiff of the stench of corruption and malfeasance here.

On my profile page I have listed all the Clinton crimes - crimes that are being repeated as we speak.

Yeah, no high crimes my @$$!

Can an ongoing crime be pardoned? For instance, the president can’t pardon a kidnapper while the victim is still tied up. Seems like it’s illegal to be here as a non-citizen even after the illegal border crossing is pardoned.

I don’t see how a pardon for a specific crime can be effectuated before a conviction for that crime.

In an interview, a couple months ago when the Democrats we floating the idea Republicans were calling for impeachment. My jaw dropped. I’m looking for the transcript.

The so-called “Republican leadership” will never walk down that road.

How can anyone be pardoned if they haven’t been convicted?
