So Obama didn’t want the voters to have a say about his policies. We shouldn’t be surprised considering his past statements about democracy.

With the increasing power of the Executive Branch, I think that a single Two Year Term would be quite enough.
Wait, make that a One Year Term including the six Month Vacation.

A free press that chooses to be subservient is pointless and impotent. However a free press that decides to be the advocate of the Administrative Branch of government is most powerful and far from impotent and thus becomes a partner in the tyranny of government.

“More and more, I favor a six year Presidency and no consecutive second term.”
Term limits and a media/government ban.

The law is whatever Obama says it is.
The media's job in a free republic is to ensure whatever Obama says is believed and unchallenged.

It's called political strategy. We should learn what its all about since we don't have any. The regime plays us 24/7.They never close.We never learn.
What if right now while their numbers have tanked to their lowest point ever they still have us under control and we don't get it?
What if it's almost a year before the 2014 elections and they have it figured out to bring up amnesty several months before the election? Boner has already said he will take it up. What if the timing is such that amnesty takes out all the oxygen in the air just about election time? What if this one move keeps us from getting the Senate back by just a few votes?
Any chance that happening,or every chance?

Yesterday it was the NY Times attacking Obamacare premiums for professionals in NY State. This week Chris Matthews attacked the totally incompetent White House (Obama) management of the Obamacare rollout. Note the salient parts of this post,yesterday,This week
I would be a lot more impressed to see fat Chrissy and the slimes doing such noble deeds of random journalism only weeks before an election instead of almost a year.
This wreaks of plausible denyablity for next Sept and Oct. when they bash our side for every tiny little evil deed we are doing.We can't trust the driveby media ever.

Evidently whoever wrote this story had a slow day at the office and had to do something to kill time. while the bulk of the story is factual and they did hold off until after the election, this effort was an exercise in futility. They did not have to do this. Why? Because every idiot, parasite, self hating White, and traitor that intended to vote for Obama would have done so anyway. Even the much worshiped so called “independent moderates” who are nothing more than Obama worshipers who do not have the courage to publicly state it. Whether they announced their intentions six months before the election or six months after the election, it would have had no effect on the outcome of the election. It would not cost Obama one vote.

Thanks Seizethecarp.
...delayed enacting a series of rules on the environment, worker safety and health care to prevent them from becoming points of contention before the 2012 election, according to documents and interviews...

Many of us have maintained all along that ValJar and the DNC stole the 2012 election. Want proof, you need go no further.

ping to pre-election policy coverup/lying by Barry.
Key definition of Obamacare expanded unaffordable essential coverage was withheld from analysts and voter (of course).
This is not news but the fact that WaPo is pounding Barry on the front page IS news, IMO.
