How can PRES get away with doubling down his bypasses of Congress and making

Are these actions impeachable?

The Executive Branch is the third leg of the government. It has a significant amount of power. It is supposed to. He hasn't done anything that other president's haven't done, and considering how useless Congress has been, I don't really blame him for suggesting we will try to do as much as he can. Someone has to. The GOP obviously has no interest in showing up to work.

  You are correct. President Obama hasn't done anything that other Presidents have done. And, just as Nixon lied and was removed from office, so should Obama be removed for lying. The current fear mongering must stop or the nation will be destroyed.

According to public records this president has executed the least amount of "executive orders" of recent presidents. Executive orders are used by every president to run and manage the branch of government they control. Guess how many executive orders Ronald Reagan signed? On average, (48) a year. George W. Bush averaged 36 a year. President Barack Obama? He's averaging 37.http://www.policymic.com/articles/80393/obama-has-issued-fewer-executive-orders-than-5-republican-presidents-before-him
I believe whenever people dislike whomever is in office they get upset with the president having this power. However it's important not to rebuke power that you may want a president to have that you like who is pushing an agenda you're in favor of.

Practically speaking the president can do anything he wants as long as he is not challenged by congress. The constitution does not explicitly give such authority to issue executive orders. But there is quite a bit of precedent in the use of Presidential executive orders as long as the President is doing so in the execution of the law. When the President issues an executive order that contradicts a law or the Constitution, that becomes a problem. Or in the case of the current President, who seems to think he can simply write the law himself and bypass the legislative branch, it is a real problem. He did this with his own healthcare legislation. And when he has given directives to agencies not to enforce specific laws such as DOMA and areas of our immigration laws, he is directly violating his oath of office. And he is not the first President to do so. Maybe just more blatant than many others in his disregard for the checks and balances. One major difference is that in most past cases of a President refusing to enforce a law, it was based on a belief that a law was unconstitutional. Whereas the President more often uses language like "fairness" rather than cite the lack of constitutionality.

Regardless of whether or not one agrees with the provisions of a piece of legislation from a policy perspective, it is still the job of the executive branch to enforce the law. Not pick and choose which laws they will enforce and simply arbitrarily change them because they want to. If you disagree with a law, then you propose legislation and move it through the legislative branch. If you can't...then too bad. That is why we have a sharing in the balance of power. Ultimately, the President in the real world can do anything he wants as long as he is not challenged by the other branches of gov't. And he may be openly critiqued by his political opponents. But they will never do anything to remove him from office, even if they have the majority control after a mid term election. The political willpower isn't there for an ugly fight. The President knows that, and he knows the majority of the media are on his side. So nothing will change.

Past Presidents and the present Chief executive have accomplished this through Executive Oder. There is no provision or statute that explicitly states that the president can issue such orders, however, the term "executive power" under Article II, section I, clause I of the constitution refers to the title of the President as the Executive. He is therefore instructed in the carrying out of his duties to " take care that the laws be faithfully executed". This is the language used that has been interpreted to allow the presidents Executive Orders to be carried out. These acts that the Congress of the United States have delegated to the President.

Executive orders have the full force of law (and the following is the key point!) When they take authority from a power granted directly to the executive by the constitution.
