OBAMA’S LAST MINUTE DASH TO CEMENT HIS PATHETIC PRESIDENCY WITH LEFTY REGULATIONS …
ScaredMonkeys: We were waiting for Obama’s last minute parting gifts as he heads out the door and here they come. The NY Times reports that Barack Obama has issued a rule that bars states from denying federal money to Planned Parenthood. What else would one expect from this failed president but a plethora of gifts, rules and regulations that will have to be undone by president-elect Donald Trump. Note to Barack Obama, to borrow his own words, “elections have consequences” … and you lost. This is what a community agitator does. They can’t get anything accomplished when they are in office, so on the way out they door they pass last minute BS that makes it difficult on the incoming administration. I take it back, Barack Obama is the worst president this country has ever seen. Good riddance. MORE
When it comes to Executive Orders, what can be done can be undone.
January 21st will tell a tale. I expect Donald Trump to be every bit as great a President as Ronald Reagan was. Obunghole will soon be the dead skunk in the middle of the road. His legacy will be the fiddlings of a petty little narcissist. Where will they house his Red Crayons?
“…Barack Obama is the worst president this country has ever seen. Good riddance…”
Nuff said.
A President needs a strong foundation to build a legacy – this means working with the other two branches to enact laws that are difficult to reverse.
Obama’s ideas were so unpopular he could not work with Congress to follow this process established by our forefathers. So he went the easy, lazy and disingenuous route with executive orders.
Hence, he has no solid foundation for his legacy and therefore, no legacy once the grown ups return to government.
There are Federal laws concerning illegal aliens too, we see how effectively those are followed.
Phifft.
I’d like to see Barry in prison. But I think they should squeeze him to turn states evidence. Maybe some waterboarding for good measure.
BFH – IOTW should start a pool for how many Executive Orders President Trump signs on his first day.
My guesstimate is 30.
He “issued a rule”, did he?
Well I counter with an edict, that all who see this asswipe on the street are allowed, nay encouraged, to throw a brick at his styrofoam head.
And we all know that an edict, that enjoys broad popular support, beats a criminal rule every time.
Dickness, bone deep. That goes for all his dick EOs. More busy work for the new POTUS.
Everybody should ask themselves — as if Hillary was right, all along – “If you’re a cog in the Nazi camp apparatus, and you already know the Allies are just over those hills, do you A) ‘Shove as many deplorables into the ovens, while you still can?’ or B) ‘Slow walk as slow as you possibly can, until you can surrender, and claim to have only been following orders?'”
I’ll wager all the EO’s are in digital files. So, easy. Assign a couple of staff programmers to read them all into new, boiler-plated, cancellation EO files. Pass new files to assigned review person to discard the ones President Trump wants to keep. Print all remaining. Assemble into a large stack and set on President Trump’s desk for signing. Break out the champagne.
