Are Obama's executive orders "ignoring the Constitution"?

Reader comment on: Jonathan Turley on Obama's Lawlessness

Submitted by Tibor R. Machan (United States), Feb 28, 2014 19:01

Doesn't the US Constitution make possible for presidents to issue executive orders? Sure, Obama may be making dubious use of them but is he being unlawful in doing so? I think he may technically be within the law. The Constitution provides for emergency operations and dishonest politicians can misuse these galore.
