No SandRat,
Obammy is acting like the presidency is much larger than 1/3rd equal to the congress and judiciary.
Course with the leadership of the congress and senate you can actually see congressional power shrinking.
Boehner is a joke weenie.
And though Sandra Day says it is wrong to criticize the judiciary, I personally think many of the bastards should be hung from the closest tree.

I don’t think the presdendcy is 1/3rd, while its 1 of 3 federal branches the founders made it clear that by playing it 2nd above the judicial and BELOW the congressional branch they were making a statement in the hierarchy of its authority.

But i do think the presidency like the leglsator and the judicial branch and even the States to the extent their involved can refuses to carry out certain functions they find to be unlawful.

Id rather have government depended upon agreement among the 3 than government depended upon any one of the 3.

Never forget the object “checks and balances” is to protect the individual from government not to insure the government never fails to run/act.
