Default I thought that the President....

railed against his predecessor and his signing statements.....in March he signed a memo to all executive members of the administration to ignore the previous signing memos and during the campaign he specifically said he wouldnt do it.....you can watch him say it here.,,,

Now he really took Bush to task on this....

I believe the below is AT LEAST the second signing statement this President has issued and they all have to do with his POWER to do things....for example, this is from the June 24 signing statement...

"However, provisions of this bill within sections 1110 to 1112 of title XI, and sections 1403 and 1404 of title XIV, would interfere with my constitutional authority to conduct foreign relations by directing the Executive to take certain positions in negotiations or discussions with international organizations and foreign governments, or by requiring consultation with the Congress prior to such negotiations or discussions. I will not treat these provisions as limiting my ability to engage in foreign diplomacy or negotiations."

Now, I am not questioning the validity of what he says, but HOW can he absolutely rail on a sitting President and if you watched the video that is what he did and then simply just do the same things ?

This has become such a constant and chronic trend with this administration !
