Random, rambling thoughts reading this thread which I ordiniarly would not respond to:
- Oh joy.. more parroting of extreme right wing radio fear mongering.
- Some people really heap all the countries ills and demonize Obama so much, they genuinly believe he's the antichrist or something. It's amazing what people will talk themselves into believing. If Obama was a white guy, most of this malarky wouldn't be happening. Racism is deep seeded in our country. People like to pretend it isn't, but it really is.
- Last sitting president, a Republican said, "Stop throwing the Constitution in my face. It's just a goddamned piece of paper! ". Just saying.....
- I honestly don't believe this, or any US president would deliberatly act against the interests of the country. Each one does what they feel is right for the well being of the United Sates, regardless if we agree with how they go about it or not.
- Congress can't pass squat as far as the current situation goes. They're all worried about relection, party politics, and special interests. By the time they passed anything, the country would have crumbled into dust all around them. Id rather not wait that long. If the president can, in the best interests of the country, get around that deadlock, good so much the better. Because at least then someone is doing something, anything!. My understanding of the current times leads me to beleive doing something/anything is far more bennficial then doing nothing at all.
- After all the signing statements Bush did, Executive action at this point, gets a "meh" outta me given congressional deadlock.
