I don't usually watch John Stewart because he is only marginally less offensive than Bill Maher. However, even John Stewart understands Obama's hypocrisy on the claim of executive privilege.

I was thinking about that very word after seeing how the statement Obama made that Krauthammer seized upon was taken out of context, and immediately after the clip he showed ended, Obama had gone on to say what he *could* do legally, and included exactly what he did last week in that. So the very notion that Obama somehow contradicted himself is ludicrous at best, and deliberately deceitful at worst. I'll leave it up to you to judge how intentional this was. > > As usual, John Stewart summed up the hypocrisy of the complaints best; the bit on Obama's statement starts around 3 minutes into this clip: > > http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/tue-june-19-2012/democalypse-2012---pander -express-edition---obama-s-immigration-reform > ( -or- http://j.mp/MHXnsl ) Hi Ed, Everybody does it, so it must be OK. It is true that everybody does it. They want that cheap labor to beat the rest of us over the head about our $9 per hour wages.
