One part of it at least.

Signing statements arent legally binding of course. He cant nullify a law, only refuse to obey it. In which case he can be punished. Good luck with that. Lets not forget his campaign against signing statements.

It continues to amaze and disappoint that nobody seems to care about these things. Another ironic gem from that article -

“Legislative efforts that significantly impede the President’s ability to exercise his supervisory and coordinating authorities or to obtain the views of the appropriate senior advisers violate the separation of powers by undermining the President’s ability to exercise his constitutional responsibilities and take care that the laws be faithfully executed,” the statement says. Typical liberalspeak where the actions are exactly opposed to the words.

"We need to create jobs so we'll kill the economy"

"We hate prejudice so we'll foster racial divides"

"I value the separation of powers, so I'll ignore it."
