Obama ’07: AG’s Job Is to Tell WH ‘Here are the Limits of Your Power’

In 2007, then Senator Barack Obama appeared on CNN’s Larry King Live and called on U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales to resign. Obama said Gonzales was acting more like the president’s attorney than the people's attorney and viewed himself as an “enabler of the administration.”

“Well, I voted against Alberto Gonzales confirmation for precisely the reason we are seeing now. I said this on the floor of the senate, that although he seemed to be a capable attorney, he seemed to conceive his role as being the president’s attorney instead of being the people’s attorney,” Obama said. …

Part of the role of the attorney general is to say to the executive branch, “Here are the limits of your power,” “Here are the things that you can't do.” I don’t think Alberto Gonzales ever told the president that there was something he could not do. …

. . . and so Obama appoints Eric Holder, who never tells the president that there is something he could not do, and is the president’s attorney versus the people’s attorney. Sad, all this post-“election” vetting.

So the point of this story is that Obama was a liar all the way back to 2007?

And your POS AG tells you that there are, similar to your ignorance, incompetence, and innate need to lie, no limits.

The President’s attorney, you say? Hmmmm.

[dwg2]

Yeah, typical hypocritical lib. Those things never apply to libs. Liar.

[reg45]

0bama has been a liar since 1961.

[Political Junkie Too]

Good one.

Oh how Obama changed. Who would have guessed it.

Or maybe the hope and change mantra was just a lie to get elected.

My guess is that Obama “got educated” and he realized that the political machine of the Democrat party is a monster and can't be controlled.

[Theodore R.]

So, Obama voted against the confirmation of Alberto Gonzales. I wonder if Alberto Gonzales voted against Obama, however.

[Olog-hai]

Or he knew all along and just lied.

Good afternoon. I hope you both are doing well.

The satire writes it's self. Some of John's stuff comes true before the "ink" is dry...

Part of the role of the attorney general is to say to the executive branch, “Here are the limits of your power,” “Here are the things that you can't do.” I don’t think Alberto Gonzales ever told the president that there was something he could not do. …

Irony? No. Hypocrisy? No. Arrogance? No. Narcissism? No.

What we have here is a megalomaniac. Who just happens to install one of the most blood thirsty AG in history. (do I need to list them all?). Unfortunately, I'm not one of Eric Holder's "people."

This my FRiends is what tyranny looks like, and it doesn't look pretty...

and the cure may kill the patient.

I pray that I am wrong, and one day FReepers will laugh at me.

We won't get that chance.

Have a great day.

Good afternoon my FRiends.

We won't get that chance.

I pray that those five words are not prophetic.

Ya. Pretty sinister and a bit evil to make promises to voters who were desperate for change from the norm in Washington while knowing that that he had no intentions of keeping his promises.

If true, this guy is evil in the worst way.
