It's not just illegal, it's unconstitutional, and in a manner directly striking at the heart of the Republic.

This is an impeachable offense: it is, indeed, essentially the same offense for which Nixon was forced to resign in 1974.
If this is allowed to stand, and Obama face no legal or political consequences for his actions, the precedent will have been set, and the decision of the people in free elections will increasingly have less and less to do with who becomes President of the United States of America. At first this will mean stolen elections; a decade or two down this road, coups, revolutions and civil wars, because free elections will no longer be a practical means of unseating an inept or evil President.
