It take all kind of humans to make me mad.

I was eating my dinner in a truck stop tonight. I over heard 3 men talking about Pres. Obama. I was mystified what I was hearing. They were saying that Pres. Obama should never be able to issue an executive order with out approval from congress. I could not hold back and said it is in the constitution. i.e. Bush used the same process to pass laws and the same as all the presidents before them. One of them laughed and said that it was wrong because he is not their president. I said REALLY? I asked them where did they hear all this garbage? One said he heard Rush said this on his radio show and the other 2 said they heard it on Fox news. I told them to quit listen to idiots like them and they might get smarter. As I left to pay my bill, this other person came up to me said they had been talking trash before I came into the restaurant. He told me that they were upset that the President was going to take our guns. I am amazed they drive a truck, it takes some knowledge to drive a truck, but a lot more knowledge to understand the constitution. They have none of the latter.
