Obama has only been in office for 6 months.

That's exactly what Obama has put in his signing statements.

It is the Executive branch's duty to protect the Constitution of the United
States. It's Congress' duty to pass laws that are in accordance with the
Constitution.

Obama is unwilling to abide by the amendments Congress likes to attach to
essential bills.

Read about it, moron.

There is nothing wrong with signing statements. If Bush had indeed signed
that many, I highly doubt they were all as bad as you moonbats think they
were.
