Wow. You’re right, that says it all.
Last time I read Article 2, Section 2 of the US Constitution, the President doesn't have the power over that. He can talk all he wants, but it doesn't make it legislatively so. It is Congress's job. The job description of the President of the United States is as follows:
He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law: but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments. The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States; he may require the Opinion, in writing, of the principal Officer in each of the executive Departments, upon any subject relating to the Duties of their respective Offices, and he shall have Power to Grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offenses against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.
Thanks Jeff.

True, and with all the "I'm voting for Romney (PERIOD)" going on I have yet to hear 1 single reason why, as a conservative, I should vote for him other than "he's not 0bama".
This wonderful nation cannot stand another Obama term.
Romney is not my choice, but with a conservative house and a senate with enough conservatives, we can “Romney Proof” Washington.
Go ahead and run and hide and leave the heavy work to those who love this country.
Politics is a team sport.
My son did not make the school team, but I take him to the games and cheer on the team anyway.
I have always said that Obama is so evil that I will vote for anyone the RNC puts forward.
The writer of this article may have had a bad experience with his state GOP party, but here in Wisconsin we conservatives like and have influence in our state GOP party.
The GOP nationally is more than than the RNC and some RINO candidates, it also is a lot of state and county parties and individuals who respect American conservative political and family values. A lot of us did not have Romney as our first choice, but will go for him in November as Obama must be stopped. We will then hold Romney’s and our elected GOP reprs. feet to the fire to shift and hold them to the right course to save our country for our selves and our kids.
Well said!
Say no more.
Jeff, I just noticed the author's facebook page. He isn't a Conservative Republican, but a moderate Libertairan Gary Johnson supporter.
Sneaky devil trying to pimp Obama...
100000%....
“Anybody But Obama”— The Most Dangerous Three Words in America Today
sitting by and watching ayatollah obama get re-elected is 2X as dangerous...
It’s clear the author of this piece has an agenda. Congress will repeal Obamacare theough reconciliation same way it was passed. Romney will sign it if he wants any chance at re-election.
Romney referred to sodomites who want to adopt children as “people who love each other.” Absolutely sickening and proof that he has no moral compass.

Got a source for that ???
Some RomneyBots want some proof their darlin’ boy would actually say something so Barry....
Check out the link at 93, agenda noted. Gary Johnson guy.. Not a Conservative Republican who is frustrated like he claims to be in the article.
Good dig! Very revealing of the agenda hiding behind this article.
