Dear Guest: You are either one who lives a very sheltered life or a troll. In either case for the record here is a response.
You are correct. Essentially Congress (Legislative Branch) makes law and controls spending. The Executive Branch carries out those laws, and the Judicial Branch (Supreme Court) interprets such laws. Its called separation of powers and was constructed to maintain balance
However Obama has turned this fine balance on its head by veto, executive order, regulations (over 80,000 pages in 2015) via federal agencies (czar appointed and not elected. He essentially has ignored Congress altogether and has taken public issue with some of the decisions made by the Supreme Court, to wit Citizens United (see below)
This dance of his has been going on for his entire tenure and it has been very damaging. Anyone who believes what Obama says are as they say in the game of politics "useful idiots", because Obama doesn't care about you, me or them. Obama is a puppet to internationalist that want to take America down a peg or two. All one has to do to know this is true is to take a broad view of the tapestry of Obama's political works
For example, in response to Citizens United a decision and its deciders he publicly ridiculed at one of his televised State of the Union addresses, he sent his bull dogs (IRS) to counter its effect by targeting conservative groups.
Unlike some on this thread the threat of a government shut down did not concern me one bit because essential service by law must be maintained and you can't fool all of the people all of the time.....Many people including some of the liberal media are finally realizing what a monster Obama the Terrible really is and the damage he has wrought on America. I make this statement with a heavy heart because as Americans are taught one supports and respects the position of the President of these United States.
However in this case I have never acknowledge Obama as being my president and I believe he has been very disrespectful of America and its people and as such he has not earned their respect.
Personal Best Regards:
