Congress voted for the Dream Act?? Where have you been. It didn't pass and no the president swore to uphold ALL laws. It is not his choice to pick and choose which laws he likes. It is his DUTY to enforce ALL laws.
Where on earth did you come up with garbage like that. No wonder our country is in such trouble with that kind of thinking. Presidents swear to uphold all laws on record; dictators do what they please.
No, the Dream Act wasn't passed, but the president is within his right to choose which laws we enforce. This is something any president can do and isn't something that can be impeached over.
I didn't vote for Bush either but some of you need to let it rest and realize who you are dealing with NOW. This man is much more controlling and destructive than Bush ever was.
Now who was it that signed NAFTA. That is the real destroyer in the room.
And I'll bet the darlings of the conservative party, the corporations, just LOVED NAFTA! Wow, no more having to pay a decent wage! No more unions! No more having to obey environmental laws (make the stuff in China!!!!!)!
Profits balloon!
But does that help the US economy?
No.
It put people out of work.
Corporations hoard money.
Go take your precious corporations to task.
Aren't they the JOB CREATORS?
There are many aspects to the history of the Weimar Republic that people in America simply don't know about. Hitler as dictator was the end of a complex set of events that began in 1918. The parallels to our history since 2008 are interesting.
Obama isn't the dictator who comes out of our collapse. That leader has not yet emerged. He's unlikely to be a leftist, though leftists make him possible.

I agree. The parallels to current events is interesting. The stage is being set.
There’s no reliable way to prevent bad or incompetent people from gaining power. A political system with a separation of powers and checks & balances – like the U.S. Constitution – does make it more difficult for one branch of government to dominate the others.
Not in Germany. The Weimar Republic actually had more stringent laws about citizen gun ownership than the Nazi Party ever imposed. The Nazis banned ownership for targeted groups, but relaxed restrictions and requirements for virtually everyone else.
