“The easy way out is to try to yell and pretend like I can do something by violating our laws. If in fact I could solve all these problems without passing laws in Congress, I would do so.” -President Obama to immigration hecklers
President Obama was responding to hecklers who asked him to use his executive power to stop all deportations, but I would say that this quote would be an appropriate response to many of the president’s critics on the Left concerning a wide range of issues.
Yelling and pretending doesn’t produce results, particularly when the person you’re yelling at is on your side.
