How Will the White House Respond

For John, BLUF:  What does the White House not understand?  And Congress.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Do we believe Brietbart?

Do we believe this headline?—"Report:  Exec Amnesty 'No Matter How Big a Shellacking' for Dems."

Reporter Ian Hanchett claims that ABC News Chief White House Correspondent Jon Karl has

… reported that according to WH officials “the president will move forward with an executive order on immigration reform “no matter how big a shellacking Democrats get tonight” during ABC’s Election coverage on Tuesday.

I think the only reason this would even be contemplated is that the Congress has abandoned their time honored traditions of independence and their place in the Constitution.  I am not talking about Impeachment and Conviction.♠  I am talking about the power of the purse.

♠  First off, there is Rep Paul Ryan's comment "Have you met Joe Biden."  Then there is the fact that President Obama is perceived as our first Black President and throwing him out of office would be a big lacuna in our historical arc.  Even the stupid can't be that stupid.  Are there issues that could justify Impeachment?  I am sure, but they would be so extreme that near would everyone call for it.  As I say to my Wife, we will know it is time when Senator Harry Reid calls on the Speaker of the House and tells him it is time.
