What instance do you need cited? They are all over the news:


War Powers Act
New York Times

Quote:


The White House, pushing hard against criticism in Congress over the deepening air war in Libya, asserted Wednesday that President Obama had the authority to continue the military campaign without Congressional approval because American involvement fell short of full-blown hostilities.




Treaty to supersede the Bill of Rights
Washington Times

Quote:


The U.N. Small Arms Treaty opens a back door for the Obama administration to force through gun control regulations. Threats to the Second Amendment are as real today as ever.




Usurping the rule of law: Confiscation of Bond value to support the UAW Pension funds

Under the rule of law a bondholder has precidence in bankrupsy procedings.

In the bankruptcy proceedings for GM and Chrysler, the bondholders were not given normal precedence in the proceedings, and in fact were reordered last in priority, in preference to the UAW Pension funds, unprecedented in US Bankruptcy laws.

Risk Managment News

Quote:


The Obama administration official said the government would not require a specific percentage of bondholders to approve the new proposal but would make a judgment call based on the level of support. About 15 percent of bondholders had agreed to the previous proposal, the official said.




Edit:
In short, the bombing of a foreign country to oust its leader isn't war, the Constitution and its Bill of Rights is a document we are willing to negotiate outside the amendment process, and the rule of law is irrelevant if not politically expedient... are these precedents we cherish in America? Where do we draw the line... if not as it is drawn in law.
