To ignore this would be foolish. Because of Ovomit's voracious appetite to have everything his way, or he will write an executive order to get it, bodes ill for all who call themselves Americans.

    This has been in their heads for years. When Pelosi was speaker, they were quite brave and arrogant. In 2010, Sen. Tom Harkin (D), Iowa headed a Senate committee to discuss seizing private 401K funds. Their goal was to more "fairly" distribute pension money to everyone. I am quite sure none of Pelosi's funds would have been touched.
    These leeches do not realize that some people responsibly put back money for their future, while others spend every dime they make, and then expect someone else to help them with their futures - and government in Obamaland, thinks that is a dandy idea. If we do not get rid of the moochers in D.C., that is exactly what is going to happen.

    It seems that the purpose of special prosecutors since 1990 has been to invent crimes when Democrats are in office, and to be conspicuously absent when Republicans are in office

    It seems that the purpose of special prosecutors is to put both sides on notice that they need to do better than just run the smoothest talking sociopath they can find. What we actually need is for either side ( as I don't care ) to actually get their guy road hauled through the mud until their name is so sullied that it is used as a curse. If you are thinking Nixon, no.. I am thinking Quisling.. If the folks in Washington see how bad it can be then perhaps the sociopaths will be scared off for a bit, and we can get some folks with unshakable ethics. Also two things to keep in mind while the current one is working up plans to make his horse the speaker of the house. We humans like to create gods so that we can then kill them. We Americans love to elevate a celebrity just high enough for the crowed to have a good chance of all hitting them with their rock. Hopefully when this is done the politics folks will be forced to remember that they are employees, not celebrities.

    Sorry, I read [Obama] "grabbing powers faster than a looter in a grocery store," and I swore I could hear the distant tweeting of dog whistles.

    You know NOTHING about me. How dare you say I'm a racist?!? Btw, I brought up the fact that is was GW Bush who created homeland security and enabled the gov to do exactly what it's doing. Leave your bullshit somewhere else.

    Executive Order 13074--Amendment to Executive Order 12656

    By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, and in order to reflect the appropriate allocation of funding responsibilities for Noncombatant Evacuation Operations, it is hereby ordered that Executive Order 12656 is amended by adding a new section 501(16) to read as follows: ``Subject to the direction of the President, and pursuant to procedures to be developed jointly by the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of State, be responsible for the deployment and use of military forces for the protection of United States citizens and nationals and, in connection therewith, designated other persons or categories of persons, in support of their evacuation from threatened areas overseas.''

    Did anyone get the license plate of that Mack truck that ran us over yesterday? By executive order, the Secretary of the Treasury may now seize the property of

    The Secretary may make his determination in secret and after the fact. Click here to read this new little gem out of the Bush Administration.

    What's it say, you ask? The White House will decide if you are in any way "undermining efforts" in Iraq, or related to Iraq or pretty much anything else, the Treasury Department is authorized to seize your money, property, stocks, etc

    It's understood that Obama's actions with Putin don't satisfy many.

    What should Obama be doing?

    Yeah, because nothing would make the Republic stronger than a consistent history of trumped-up prosecutions when one party gets the presidency. May as well ask for Caesar now, because the Potomac is looking an awful lot like the Rubicon lately.

    The lawlessness of the thing in the White House is head spinning. He is initiating a major power grab with this latest stunt. If this doesn't get more recognition for what it actually is, we are doomed.

    How typical and despicable, to take what has happened in a foreign country as an excuse to remove or diminish more of a citizen's rights.

    How could this possibly affect Putin?

    In no way whatsoever. That's why Putin is laughing at the US, saying, "So what?"
    Putin is former KGB. He's put in place operations that are so far out of O's abilities to comprehend, and have already made the so-called sanctions look like a fly swatter next to Putin's missile launchers.

    Lets see how all of this works for him after November. Once republicans have the Senate it will be special prosecutor time. It will only take this order being misused once to get more people lit up about things. While lots of folks might be ok with calling theft a tax. They will not be ok with just calling it theft.
