There he goes again. Anything and everything Obama does is a strategic move to increase his power over the people through the executive branch.....

CASE IN POINT Ohaha signed an Executive Order establishing a Council of Governors to strengthen the partnership between the Federal and State Governments to "protect" our Nation against all types of hazards. The Council will review matters involving state National Guards; homeland defense; civil support; synchronization and integration of State and Federal military activities; and other matters of mutual interest pertaining to National Guard, homeland defense, and civil support activities. (emphasis added)

FOR YOUR REFERENCE The phrase "to gain executive branch authority" was first heard 70 years ago, or so.....part of a package called "The Enabling Acts"......although it was written in German. The Enabling Acts granted "the executive" the authority to write new laws and change old laws without oversight.

Barry's EO and his Council of Governors is so illegal it's almost funny. It has all the authority of printed toilet paper, so I hope he one on hand after a night of eating Mexican food.

And forget his Birth Certificate.
I demand to know who took his college and law school tests because this MORON sure didn't.

I cannot add to your statement in bold face. This administration is super dangerous. Let us hope there is an outcry on the Hill as to what they are trying to pull off.
Whether or not they would back off is probably not in the cards.
