Sen. Obama warned about Patriot Act abuses. President Obama proved him right.

23. You act like we unelected have the power to change or veto laws

It's up to US. Remember Obama's slogan "Yes we can"?

Forgive me if I am wrong but our elected representatives have our power by proxy, you think I can veto unconstitutional laws and it is my job? What is his job anyway? look pretty for the camera?

You claim he has no power as President of the United States but as a carpenter somehow I do.

Very well then! On what document shall I use my veto pen? Since his job is mine according to you and I have all the power I though we granted him when we elected him, why do I not get paid a few hundred thousand a year for life rather than him?

Since you say all he can do is sit in a chair and shrug helplessly I think we should disolve the position entirely as an obvious waste of money on what is nothing more than a powerless modeling job. Or get a Queen instead, as far as powerless symbolic leaders go at least royalty is posh and full of gossip.
