WASHINGTON — Over the past two years, the Obama administration has published hundreds and hundreds of rules — on how wheelchairs should be stowed aboard U.S. aircraft, how foreign trade zones should be regulated, how v****g assistance should be provided for U.S. citizens overseas, and so on.

There’s a problem, however: Technically speaking, these and some 1,800 other regulations shouldn’t be in effect because they weren’t reported to Congress as required. Yet there is little that lawmakers or the courts can do about it.

The laws or rules are not legal ..wwhy can't congress or courts do anythingor is it they don't want to do anything to rein in obummer maybe they can't pull their heads out of his ass long enough to be the people their elected to be

If you read the article, it is the various departments, like defense, t***sportation, hhs, etc., that are supposed to forward these rules. So it is not Obama himself or his office that is responsible for this. But as the article said, if the law were strictly followed, it would overwhelm the congressional committees with paperwork.

If we had a congress that functioned as it should, the law could be improved. Just as congress could fix some problems with Obamacare if the Republicans were willing to make it work better instead of repeatedly trying to repeal it. I think this quote from the comment on the linked article makes a lot of sense:

"The law passed in Bush's final months, which got a unanimous v**e in both houses, to grant unaccompanied children who arrived in the US illegally from anywhere but Mexico and Canada a court hearing before deportation [envisioned as striking a blow a the child sex trafficing business] is what created the current problem with thousands of central American children who've arrived here and cannot be deported without being given a court hearing first. Law of Unintended Consequences. Ditto the Newt Gingrich sponsored bill discussed in the article above. Not working as intended and never has. A functional Congress could fix the problem in relatively short order. But we don't have a functional Congress just now. Ironic that the purported "Get the government off our backs" Gingrich led House created a "reform" law that hugely increased government paperwork [and so staff to do it]."

Well do to the " we have to pass it, to see what's in it " mentality of our congress anymore many laws are slipped into bills needed to maintain.
I would say we need to pass a bill not allowing amendments, but if its anything like the insider trading bill, they will just repeal it in 5 months also.
Don't fool yourself thinking that this congress or administration is about anyone other than themselves. On both sides of the line are some of the crookedest bastards I've ever seen.

It take Congress and the Senate to stop Obama. The Senate will not do anything, Harry is on Obama side just like Holder and Nancy. Holder run cover for Obama.
