Problems With Authority - WSJ.com

Mr. Obama and his appointees are disregarding some laws that have been passed by Congress.
Our Constitution protects us from that, and it shouldn't require a lawsuit to fix it...
This Wall Street Journal article highlights something serious:
"In a major rebuke on Tuesday, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals issued an unusual writ of mandamus, which is a direct judicial order compelling the government to fulfill a legal obligation. This 'extraordinary remedy' is nominally about nuclear waste, writes Judge Brett Kavanaugh for the 2-1 majority, yet the case 'raises significant questions about the scope of the Executive's authority to disregard federal statutes.'"
