42. He's already being sued for violating the Constitution re: Libya by Reps
Edited on Tue Nov-01-11 05:20 AM by No Elephants
from both the left and the right.

He does seem to be selective about what he will defer to Congress on, even if he seems to have Constitutional power to act, and what he will proceed on without Congress, even if the Constitution vouchsafes something to Congress.

Please see also, Replies 43 and 44.

Odd use of "cancel" and "blatantly," btw.

Violating a law or the Constitution does not "cancel" the law violated or the Constitution. And ignoring either suffices. One need not "blatantly ignore.
