Does this rise to a level where impeachment is warranted?? ...

Hmmmmm a President who will not VETO an obviously UNCONSTITUTIONAL piece of legislation....

In principle I would answer yes.. I think it would be a wake up call to remind our President and ALL our elected officials that they have taken an OATH to support and DEFEND the Constitution.....

Would I vote to impeach?? YES !! If it is clear that the President just doesn't understand his duty, and see's nothing wrong with signing this and passing the buck to the SCOTUS...

I'd reply, david, but I'm afraid you'd turn me into a thread.

Passing and signing unconstitutional law is not illegal. A politician can not go to jail for it. It's that seperation of powers thing -- ya know the Constitution.
