CNN Reports that Obama is Considering Writing His Own Health Care Bill

CNN has reported that Obama is considering writing his own health care bill. As of now, this is not something set in stone, but it is definitely being pondered. "The President has been reviewing all of the various legislative proposals, but no decision has been made about whether formal legislation will be presented," said Deputy Communications Director Dan Pfeiffer.

The Constitution of the United States spells out the three branches of government. They are the legislative, executive, and judicial. Put quite simply, the legislative branch writes the laws, the executive branch enforces the laws, and the judicial branch interprets the laws. The President is in the executive branch of government. He is supposed to enforce the laws. The legislative branch is Congress, they write the laws. The judicial branch is, of course, the court system. The reason for the three branches is to create a system of checks and balances, so one branch cannot run away with absolute power.

Obama is once again trying to circumvent the limitations of his office to interfere and create a situation that benefits his ideals. He doesn't care what the country wants or who's toes he's stepping on. I hope Congress objects to him taking over, if he does decided to do this, and I hope they object loudly.
