More Obama Regime Power Grabbing

Meanwhile, on Capitol Hill, congress reacts in typical fashion to the Regime's growing dictatorial impulses...

We are now where The Founders were when they faced despotism.

Can't people see that this man would take as much power upon himself as he could get away with? I know there are some Leftists who want him to go full-on dictator, but surely there must be Democrats who see what is happening and are alarmed by it.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

- Thomas Jefferson

"Administratively"  No cumbersome congress to slow things up.

Imagine the wailing and gnashing of teeth from the media if George W. Bush had tried half of what this piece of scat has done "administratively".

Yah, just imagine.  But, Bush was accused of exactly the same things and worse; pure projection on the part of the left, but nevertheless .......

It does make me wonder, though, if they actually thought he was the big, bad boogie-man, wouldn't they have been frightened?  As in, "Let us assume for the moment everything you say about me is true. That just makes your problem bigger, doesn't it?"

Same routine with the Christians v muslims issue.  One can always tell what the left fears by to whom it panders and who it attacks.

Using the Leftist metric of outrage and corresponding chart for appropriate response...the Dear Leader would be worm food by now...
