The destruction of the USA is not coming nearly fast enough to suit Barack Obama. So, once again, he is threatening to use his power to issue a constant stream of Executive Orders to force his will on America because Congress just isn’t moving fast enough for him.
Obama held a Tuesday, January 14 press conference where he renewed his oft repeated threat that if Congress doesn’t bend to his will, then he will go around our elected officials and rule by fiat. Emperor Obama reigns.
It should be noted that the founders purposefully set up our system to move slowly. The founders were afraid that if change could come too quickly, all too often that change would be a knee jerk reaction to crisis and hasty changes are rarely good in the long run. But Obama does not care about our system nor does he want to wait for the people we elected to act. He wants to move on his extremist, left-wing agenda immediately.
So, he wants to use his power to make EO’s to get around our system.
But one of the things I’ll be emphasizing in this meeting is that we are not just going to be waiting for legislation in order to make sure that we’re providing Americans the kind of help that they need.
I’ve got a pen and I’ve got a phone, and I can use that pen to sign executive orders and take executive actions and administrative actions that move the ball forward in helping to make sure our kids are getting the best education possible, making sure that our businesses are getting the kind of support and help they need to grow and advance, to make sure that people are getting the skills that they need to get those jobs that our businesses are creating.
And I’ve got a phone that allows me to convene Americans from every walk of life, nonprofits, businesses, the private sector, universities, to try to bring more and more Americans together around what i think is a unifying theme; making sure that this is a country where if you work hard, you can make it.
And so one of the things that I’m going to be talking to my cabinet about is how do we use all the tools available to us, not just legislation, in order to advance a mission that I think unifies all Americans, the belief that everybody’s got to take responsibility, everybody’s got to work hard, but if you do, that you can support a family and meet the kinds of obligations that you have to your self and your family, but also to your communities and your neighbors.
No wonder they call this man the most lawless President in history.
