The Constitution and the Courts will decide, not the President

Normally, yes but not with Obama - he's pushing the envelope right over the edge.

Actually, as above (Dan40), I also hope that you are right - but (for example.....)

This is nothing short of Americans asking the Judiciary Branch to step in and exercise its check and balance powers to stop an out-of-control Executive Branch. Our Republic is held together by such power, and in this instance, the Supreme Court is the last bulwark against an authoritarian president nationalizing a private company and extinguishing Constitutionally protected contract and property rights to reach his goal of giving the company to his political allies.

From the article:

Thankfully, there are brave Americans who are willing to take on an dangerously left-wing White House, despite the very real prospect that whether they win or lose, they will be punished in some way for their insolence. Authoritarians are not a forgiving bunch.

It's the 'people' that are having to step in to stop Obama, not the courts - but, of course, the courts will step in now - but, one wonders if they continue to be independent.....
