Obama to Colbert after Big Game: Presidential Illegal Activity Okay

By Douglas V. Gibbs

After the Big Game of Professional Football, a live broadcast of Late Night with Steven Colbert has some fun at the beginning of the program, tossing the football around with soldiers in Afghanistan, an astronaut at the International Space Station, and President Barack Obama.  Barry makes a statement about calling the winners of each Big Game, and then says he calls the losers when he had bet on them.

Colbert says, "Uh, betting is illegal."

Obama replies, "I'm the President of the United States, and I pardon myself."

I understand it is a joke, but think about it; Obama basically said he can do whatever he wants, even if it is illegal, because he is President of the United States.

Remember, the liberal left socialist commie bastards think the President is supposed to have the power to rule (when a Democrat is in office) as he wants, and that he is the most powerful person in America.  What amazes me is that when a Republican is in office, suddenly they become Constitutional Originalists with staunch concerns about the President expanding the powers of the Office of the President.

Not only do we have a President (Obama) that is guilty of an abuse of power, but he flaunts it in front of the face of the voting public, and expects us to laugh about it.
