Debunked Edwards TV ad still running constantly in New Hampshire

"When I'm president I'm going to say to members of Congress and members of my administration, including my cabinet: I'm glad that you have health care coverage and your family has health care coverage," Edwards says. "But if you don't pass universal health care by July of 2009 – in six months – I'm going to use my power as president to take your health care away from you."
Cue the wild applause.
The problem with this statement is that the president can't just "take away" health care from Congress.
“Health care for Congress and the administration is passed by statute. The president can’t repeal a law on his own,” said Don Ritchie, associate historian of the Senate Historical Office.
“Congress has the power of the purse and passes legislation. It’s the president who’s dependent on Congress to get legislation passed," he said.
In the meantime, we find Edwards' lordly pronouncement in his TV ad to border on the absurd. As a former member of the U.S. senate, he should know better. For that reason, we give him the rare Pants on Fire ruling.
