If President Obama is eroding the balance of power between the branches of government, the real culprit is the almost insane obstructionism that we have seen from Republicans in Congress since the beginning of his administration. 

Again, not liking the rules of the game doesn't mean you get to throw the Monopoly board on the floor and declare yourself monarch of Atlantic City and everyone is required to pay rent to you by divine right.

1) Name one way either of these agreements, negotiated within the scope of previously ratified treaties, violates the separation of powers or American law.

2) re: your metaphor, isn't that PRECISELY what McConnell and company did when they lost the election in 08 (and again in 12)?
