Then 0bama rules with impunity.

He certainly does for now. These FR posters I mentioned are adament in their confidence that things will all change for the better this November when Republicans retake the Senate.

They may be correct about that, if it indeed happens, but I have lived longer than some of them and know from experience that having a Republican Senate will change only the leadership and not much else.
