Richard Nixon's "enemies list" appalled the country for the simple reason that presidents hold a unique trust. Unlike senators or congressmen, presidents alone represent all Americans. Their powers—to jail, to fine, to bankrupt—are also so vast as to require restraint. Any president who targets a private citizen for his politics is de facto engaged in government intimidation and threats. This is why presidents since Nixon have carefully avoided the practice.
Save Mr. Obama, who acknowledges no rules.

Obama doesn’t see himself as a “President” in the strict American sense. He considers himself to be more like a King or Dictator, but those pesky racists keep blocking his “reforms”.
Does that give you a hint?
Paula Jones and her former husband were audited by the IRS. They filed a simple 1040A tax return with about $35,000 income from wages and salaries. If you ask anybody in the tax business they will tell you that those types of tax returns have an extremely low rate of audit. Nixon never did anything to anybody on his enemies list and nobody on Nixon’s staff gave any enemies list to the IRS.
i have a list...and there is only one name on it!
That about sums up his whole political career and life.
The leftist, anarchist, nation wreckers really need to pay dearly, if they get us into a bloody civil war.
.....If [obama] isn’t going to act like a president, he bolsters the argument that he doesn’t deserve to be one.....
That says it all!!!!
The shooting of Trayvon Martin is a local police matter—period! It is most certainly nothing that a President should or would ever get involved with. The same goes for the mistaken arrest of Skip Gates in Cambridge MA a few years ago.
Nevertheless, obama got involved up to his eyeballs in both of these local matters, which the Constitution reserves to states and localities (Tenth Amendment). He does not act like a President at all. He’s still just a community organizer—and a fifth rate one at that.
Now the overrated, overgrown community organizer obama dares to target citizens who are exercising their Constitutional right to support the candidate of their choice. Is there no way to impeach this monstrous violator of both States’ and individuals’ rights, and remove him from office ASAP?
“i have a list...and there is only one name on it!”
That kind of narrows it down. There are millions of names on my list. I might need some help. :-)
Allocation of very scarce medical interventions such as organs and vaccines is a persistent ethical challenge. We evaluate eight simple allocation principles that can be classified into four categories: treating people equally, favouring the worst-off , maximising total benefits, and promoting and rewarding social usefulness.
"We will make a list of our clients, and how much money each of them has given us to invest. We will keep this list in a safe place. If we have time, we will make a copy of the list, in case something happens to the first list."
"Don't leave the client's money lying around. Keep it in a safe place. For example: where we keep the list."
The ‘presidemt’ IS a list.

And his wife said he stinks.
You are probably on his list now!
Thanks for the source on Dr. Ezekiel’s infamous article from Lancet. I had it earlier, but couldn’t find it later. The one diagram it contains is the whole message and since, due to my age, my usefulness to society as they measure it is essentially zero, then my personal outlook is at best, dire.
All I can say is this is an unbelievable argument and to have it come from the Department of Ethics is ironic beyond belief.
