This Communist president has shown desire to micro-manage from the start. Remember when news broke, way back that he was going to move the Census control from, what is it, Commerce dept that owned it for so long right into the White House! I do. That was a red flag right there.

Yeah, consolidate, merge agencies....so this most peculiar president can micromanage everything, totally unlike what a president is supposed to do.
After all, the truest definition of "management" is "getting the job done through other people."

February of '09, early enough for ya?! Here's one of the newslinks to it....

Thread addressing it then here: President Seeks More Power

A necessary thing when a single political party is stomping its feet and obstructing progress even when individually polled many think the President's ideas are OK. Tells me the super PACS and the corporations have their little republicans lined up nicely.

No, it is not a necessary thing when someone as big as the President of this vast nation has an agenda to "micromanage." No, not at all. The Census people should do the census, etc. etc.

Shall I stoop to your level, and play like you? Nah, don't have to when oh, could I ever do a dandy job of it in calling you names, too.

I'll leave you like all of the libs are left to desperately employing "ad hominem" when they yet again can't gainsay the truth of the messages so they resort to name-calling and other sophomoric ploys.

I remember when Obama mentioned about "protecting" the environment and things needed to be done like oil and Keystone whatever project.... and then mentioned about opening oil drill areas and the need to cut through "red tape" which is to bypass environmental laws for high-speed rail system... he constantly contradicted himself... There are a lot of lies... some people say its just "not telling the whole truth" or could be argued with... that's what a lie is... a lie is an intent to not tell you the truth, regardless of whether it is the whole truth or not... but clearly some people have different definition on what a lie is... and that is sad..

It looks to me like somebody doesn't understand what the concepts of the separation of powers, advise and consent and checks and balances mean.

You really don't have a clue how your federal government is organized or what the three separate and distinct branches are for or what their powers and authorities are, do you?

This is codespeak for wanting dicatatorial powers. Good grief, remember he's a micromanaging Communist. CONSOLIDATE federal bureaucracy?!! Hell no, you do not consolidate what the constitution has rightly separated...remember the checks and balances?! "Separation of power" is one way to help prevent the tyranny that he's ushering in.

This dishonorable Subversive that we call "President" did this during his last campaign. He said he was going to "fundamentally transform" America.

Oh, everyone wanted to think the best of him and got so lost in the rapture of the emotions of finally electing a black man, as was so very needed. Most voters didn't stop to think about just what our fundamentals were. Hmmm...transform them?transform what?!

Our "fundamentals" are listed in our Constitution. The document is our package of Fundamentals.

He's doing it, againnn......

You know what i respect you. Thank you for always being trutful, no matter what others may think.

You made me laugh. Because really good friends of mine who are black, said to me not that long ago, that voting for Obama , was sticking it where the sun don't shine. They are not the type that will vote for him based on his color, they have more common sense then that.

The respect is mutual. I find I can't rep you and a good number of others more than once a day.


Evilnewbie, another good post from you about BO and oil.
Yep, there are even "lies of omission." I think BO has the spectrum covered. Man, it stinks. It's really sad. If only he'd rebel at his handlers, the puppet masters, sticking that narcissistic nose up high as he addresses them the next time!
