No matter who is president this should be congressional job
Then why are they not doing it, I see no move by either the House or Senate in that direction?
Besides, what the Congress grants, as in these powers, they can also take away, so once again, I ask why it is a bad idea, since it would obviously help the Nation?
PRESIDENT SEEKS MORE POWER- this is how Righties choose to spin this story? You should be praising him for cutting and streamlining the hated Fed gov't.
Just another desperation post, got to keep attacking him and the economy or else he wins in a landside. Good luck with this, you'll need it.
I started this thread and that is what he wants, I am no where near being a rightie. Am I for it, yes, the Nation is more important than politcal infighting, because we already see why that has gotten us.

The Congress does not want him to be able to shrink the government, because then they won't be able to accuse him of expanding it.

$3 billion, 1/400th of obama's request of a debt increase of $1.2 trillion.

OK my bad. Then doing something = more power... true I guess.
Obama wants the type of reorganizational authority last held by a president when Ronald Reagan was in office. Obama's version would be a so-called consolidation authority allowing him to propose only mergers that promise to save money and shrink government. The deal would help Obama considerably by entitling him to an up-or-down vote from Congress in 90 days.
I think this is a good thing, pity he waited until NOW to try and do this. Election much?
President Obama is trying something new in politics, working during an election year. Most of the time government more or less shuts down until after the election has taken place.
