I've never blamed BO for using EOs, I know that's how modern era presidents get shit done. I think they have been abused by all modern presidents.

And BO uses them about has much as most the others, I.e., he doesn't hesitate to use the power. And combined with his not ever, in 7 years,pushing congress on dealing with the issue, combined with the fact I voted for him both times, I feel I have the right to criticize his lack of action to address this problem.
