President Obama’s state of the union pledge to “act with or without Congress” marks a milestone in presidential usurpation of Congressional authority. The concentration of power in the office of the president is yet one more negative consequence of our interventionist foreign policy. Once it became accepted practice for the president to disregard Congress in foreign affairs, it was only a matter of time before presidents would begin usurping Congressional authority in domestic matters...any member of Congress who ignores or facilitates presidential usurpation is being derelict in his Constitutional duty.
