I also think Obama is a conservative in how he views the separation of powers. He wants Congress to do it’s fucking job. The legislature is supposed to legislate. The president, any president, has enough to do running his branch of the government. I think the president should be clear on what he absolutely will not sign into law, but beyond that it’s up to the 535 knuckleheads in Congress to write our laws. I personally, am sick of Congress and it’s inability to function because they are always waiting for the president to fall on his sword first and acting like they can’t move forward without his say so. There are two leaders in Congress, the majority and the minority. Let them led for once.
