But how do you get anything done with Obama still able to wield a veto pen? You can pass bill after bill that he’ll veto. What does he care? He’s pretty much done, and too arrogant to agree to anything he doesn’t like.
So is the answer “Pass tons of bills that Obama will veto, with no progress on any major issues for the next 2 years while Obama issues executive order after executive order”?
Carefully and cleverly. For example, first pass bills that you know you can get some Democrat support for -- Keystone Pipeline comes to mind. Then, let Obama veto it and then override him. Two benefits: we get the pipeline approved and we also embarrass the Bamster.
