Do you think Obama could issue an executive order limiting Congress's constitutional authority?

If not, why can Congress do the equivalent, pass a statute, limiting the President's?

As I said in the other thread, because the constitution specifically gives congress the power to 'define' constitutional powers. It does not give the President this power.
