Re: 2nd Term Part VIII - The Thin Red Line

Between reaganbook, conservapedia, and all the alternative reality media...pretty soon all those texans that wanted to secede will have done so.

They have there own schools... all they need is their own courts. I'm frankly shocked there's no movement for this.

Conservatives finally have their own Facebook.

They also have yet another media outlet. Good for them. The man's been keeping them down.

Sarah Palin claims she wants to go beyond sound bites?? She may look great in a swim suit, but there's a reason she spends all her time in the kiddie pool.

Well, yeah. Obviously its easier to get a nice tan in the kiddie pool.
 
Where were these objections when Bush was President???

It has to stop sometime otherwise the next administration will be worse.

BHO is a bit blatant about it saying that he is willing to use EO's to bypass the legislative branch. Maybe others have thought it, but others did not say it.

Harry Truman railed against the "Do Nothing Congress" as part of the 1948 election. He asked the voters to change the culture but did not (outside of drafting the steel (railroad? ) workers during a strike) go outside of Congre$$ to get his way.

I can't wait until there is a Republican president in there and they do anything substantive by executive order. The howling (and hypocrisy) around here will be deafening. Just goes to show more and more people care about the end result they want to see and don't give a hoot how they get there.

Obama's overreach in trying to govern to a significant extent by executive order should be a scary thing to everyone who values our government system (which is functioning poorly due to abuse from all sides, but is better than what we see elsewhere in the world).

You realize that BHO has used executive orders less than most Presidents, don't you?

He didn't primarily pursue policy changes by unilaterally using executive orders, unlike Obama. Very simple difference. But, the next Republican president will feel free reign to do so after Obama's abuse of the process.
