After Jobs Bill defeated in Senate, Obama begins implementing it by edict anyway
Apparently President Obama isn't too worried about what those stuffy old dead white guys who wrote and ratified the Constitution thought. The concept of Congress having to approve laws before they go into effect is _so_ 1789. They voted down his Jobs Plan, but he's not going to let that stop him from making it law anyway. He'll just put it in place himself, a piece at a time.
Obama is a liberal. He knows what's best for the country, so he's just going to make it that way. And if the elected Congress objected, well, what do they really matter, anyway? In Obama's opinion, this is far too important to let them have a say in its passage... if their opinion doesn't match his.
