Budget:In written signing statement,Obama to ignore provision to eliminate ‘czars’ in his Admin.

Posted on 04/15/2011 3:36:05 PM PDT by sunmars

Pres Obama said that anti-”czar” provision violates the separation of powers and will be deemed “not to abrogate” presidential prerogatives.

Link when it comes, just flashed up.

The arrogance is stunning. The Dems jumped all over this anytime Bush did a signing statement.

Obama also

Pres Obama says he signed the budget bill despite “strong objection:” to provisions barring his transfer of detainees from Guantanamo.

Despite those objections, Pres Obama says he signed the bill to avoid a lapse in funding for the Govt, including the military.

anyone keeping the book of flip flops.

During his presidential campaign, then-Senator Obama was quite critical of the Bush administration’s uses of signing statements telling the Boston Globe in 2007 that the “problem” with the Bush administration “is that it has attached signing statements to legislation in an effort to change the meaning of the legislation, to avoid enforcing certain provisions of the legislation that the President does not like, and to raise implausible or dubious constitutional objections to the legislation.”

Then-Sen. Obama said he would “not use signing statements to nullify or undermine congressional instructions as enacted into law.”

Immediately sue the shiite out of him. This needs to be defined. We can’t have an unelected shadow govt running behind the scenes.

They need to defund and sue. Now.

We’ve had an unelected shadow government for a long time. They’ve just become powerful enough to show themselves.

Our government needs an undiluted muriatic acid enema.

Yes, I recognize what you say is true. It's just that the time is ripe to do something. That's my point. I agree with you completely.

The Kenyan Punk being the arrogant little A**hole that he is will simply ignore any law or regulation that he doesn’t agree with. That also probably applies to the entire DemocRAT party!

Obama is lawless. There is no other way to describe it. He thinks being POTUS means being able to do whatever you want. He couldn't care less about the constraints of the Constitution or the laws of the Congress.

The pubbies need to sue him mercilessly to prove to him that isn't true and try to reign him in.

Hussein said he would not issue signing statements when the campaign was going on. Another lie.
