If Obama Bypasses Congress on Syria, Will He Face Consequences?
No. :-(
Not with the press on his side and the republicans afraid of their own shadows.
When a first term Democrat congressman calls a news conference to criticize a Republican president our news media covers his remarks for days. Any Republican doing the same thing will be covered only to the extent that he can be rediculed. Under our Constitution the only force capable of changing this is the electorate through the ballot and their media consumption choices. I have been looking for signs of this for decades to no avail. The only thing that will change this is when our national credit is no good and the Progressives can no longer borrow and print their way to power. Only then will the American people look away from the TV and notice the problem. Of course, the Republicans, having gone along with much of this, will have their fingerprints on it and will take the blame.
He hasn’t faced any consequences yet.
