25. If congress had the balls and the true love of country
they would take him to court on his "signing statements" and they would be outlawed as unconstitutional and as violative of the separation of powers doctrine. They would also impeach him for his abuses in office relative to the signing statements and his violations of the legislation he attaches them to.

If they pass legislation outlawing signing statements then he would sign a signing statement finding it wrong and justifying why he will not follow it.

Congress has no balls and they don't give a damn about our nation. It is obvious from the inaction.

If they are holding out for the dem pres to fix it or for the dem pres to use the signing statements to benefit their needs, they are even more fucked up than GWB, imho.

To me, they are all traitors.
