I would take Mr. Pence more seriously if he wasn’t a member of the GOP. I do have to say, the GOP does treat the Constitution as if they are an obsessed lover, just like one that beats its spouse or lover. They clobbered the Constitution during the Bush years and were full of excuses for doing so while saying they loved it. Doesn’t that just sound like a wife beater?

Read the Constitution… As long as you remain happily ingnorant, you will be led by a pack of fools…
Obama and Bush can’t do jack without Congress appeasement, and voter apathy.
You want an all powerful government to run roughshod over you and ignore laws meant top protect you from the tyranny of the majority, and THEN you whine and moan when somebody you hate uses that ultimate authority to their personal
whims.
Please wake up, or shut up… There is NO middle ground!

Obama observing the constitution! Don’t be so funny! Obama would not dare to admit he is not GOD! Much less obey the constitution! The man is insane!

Somebody tell Pence that it’s in the constitution that the feds control immigration and he’s doing what Pence wants with Arizona. Maybe next they can tell him he needs some new material. I’m sick of all this repeat.

Pence lives in an alternate universe where “leveling the playing field” means “anti American”. The term can easily describe the very American ideal of providing fair opportunity to all, and is the way it was obviously intended. And he’s wrong in that presidents throughout history have often shown an appropriate degree of respect, including bowing where customary, to foreign heads of state. Can’t get respect if you give none, no matter how powerful you are. And I’d like a link to the full text of Obama ever apologizing to the enemies of the United States. Never happened either. Beginning to look like Pence, in his euphoric exaggerations while lining up for 2012 revealed that he is a liar.

I want to hear discussions about how bills and actions reflect the Constitution. This is the most important issue of the day. Keep it up Pence and I’ll support you all the way.

It’s time for us to get back to real, constitutional principles, presidents for 100 years have strayed from that position.
Obama is doing it more agressivly than imaginable, because he’s a socialist who wants to destroy what made America great.
We, the people, need to take our country back and remove all of the destructive redistributive efforts. The great society has done nothing to resolve poverty, it’s made it a trap for people to get caught in, destroying their spirit, their lives and their children’s lives.
Socialism is counter productive and counter intuitive and DOES NOT WORK

What Constitution? Obama was on record years ago complaining and opining that the Constitution failed and didn’t allow for “redistributive change”, “break free from the essential constraints”, etc. This is nothing new. Obama, and his ilk, believe in a “positive” law aspect. Bush, as previous commentator, mentioned was also very bad Constitutionally…though he was more concerned with focusing power in the Executive Branch and less redistribution and internationalism. Interestingly Obama has taken the ball from Bush and INCREASED the Federal Executive power, anti-civilrights laws, executive orders, citizen spying, wars, etc. And expanded to include nationalizations, more bailouts, more unelected “czars”, albeit with more anti-American zeal or focus.

Pence, what a hypocrite you are. Typical Republican poop. Where were you when little Bush was President? That’s when your comment would have meant something. Now it’s only Republican poop. As for President Obama bowing to the Japanese Emperor. So what? Who REALLY cares? Did you criticise little Bush when he held hands and kissed the Saudi prince while President? Of course not. HYPOCRITE!
