We do not normally sing the praises of Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA), however, in this instance, he is exactly correct in STRONGLY CRITICIZING Pres. Obama's deliberate decision to ignore constraints in legislation he is signing. The House overwhelmingly REBUKED Obama by a vote of 429 - 2 for Obama's statement at a bill's signing that he would not follows its constraints. At issue is an amendment added to the $106 Billion Supplemental War-Funding legislation signed by Obama last month. During the signing, Obama stated he would not follow the amendment's constraints with respect to the World Bank and International Monetary Fund. Obama stated the conditions "interfered" with his powers as President. After the overwhelming rebuke of the President by the House, Barney Frank said of the stunning vote against Obama:
"We do this not just on behalf of this institution, but ON BEHALF OF THIS DEMOCRACY. There's kind of a unilateralism, an UNDEMOCRATIC, UNREACHABLE way about these signing statements."
Wow! Barney!! Well said!! We didn't know you had it in you to b-slap the President this way, but, no one can do it better than you! We got your "6" on this one, Barney! (Whoops, that doesn't quite sound right, does it? - but you know what we mean!) Thank you, Congressman Frank for telling this President that he is NOT an IMPERIAL KING!!!
(Not surprisingly, you did NOT see this rebuke of their beloved Obama on the mainstream nightly news. If Bush has been rebuked by such an overwhelming vote against him, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE LEAD STORY for at least a 48 hr news cycle!!)
That’s saying something when one skunk says another skunk stinks.
Sawwy Bahney. It was jerks like you who put Obama up on a pedestal and proclaimed him king.
Dictator’s taking baby steps.
Oh, Barney just wants to be king.
Holy ****! I’m agreeing with Barney Frank....I think I must have eaten some bad food today....My stomach is turning.......
Who were the 2; anybody know?
If you REALLY want to get Zero’s attention try bringing up articles of impeachment. Even MSNBC could not ignore that!
Interesting how even those who once championed Zero’s every move are now starting to criticize his actions. Very interesting!

I agree. But Congress is too corrupt to even be approached with impeachment.

I had a conversation with an 0bama supporter today and exposed 0bama in such a way that she saw him as a threat to her and her grandchildren. She actually woke up and listened. The last thing she said was, “I was screwed over”.
