Executive Order Hijinks - Andy McCarthy - The Corner on National Review Online

Executive Order Hijinks - Andy McCarthy - The Corner on National Review Online
The Susan B. Anthony List observation that EOs can be rescinded at the president's whim is of course true. This particuar EO is also a nullity — presidents cannot enact laws, the Supreme Court has said they cannot impound funds that Congress allocates, and (as a friend points out) the line-item veto has been held unconstitutional, so they can't use executive orders to strike provisions in a bill. So this anti-abortion EO is blatant chicanery: if the pro-lifers purport to be satisfied by it, they are participating in a transparent fraud and selling out the pro-life cause.
Libs don't have laws, ethics, or Constitutions.

The beginning of The Lawless Society of America.
