Obama should attach a signing statement to the Stimulus
And just spend whatever he wants.

What are they going to do?

Impeach him?

1. Negative. The rule of law is that which sets up apart from the GOP.

7. Because nothing says "I am moral" more than perpetrating the same evil that other have.

6. That would be funny as hell
he won't do it though, I really think he believes in the law. It would be hilarious to watch the pukes try to squirm around it.

14. Oh I know

17. Wait, are you saying Bush broke the law putting his signature on signing statements?
So why don't we arrest him, indict him, and make him follow
the rule of law?  

If it is not against the law, and it was his executive
privilege, then Obama has the same privilege.

Which is true?
