Its not "Congress do your job" with Obama, its

"Congress pass whatever I send to you with no debate". Why not just use your executive powers to declare yourself dictator.

The president has the power to veto 100% of the bills congress sends to his desk for signature if he wants. Congress has the power to ignore 100% of the bills the president submits to them - its called separation of powers and its there for a reason. They both need each other to function.

Obama would be very happy if he could just eliminate Congress all together and just rule by edict. Of course he has our best interests in mind ...
