Obama Won’t Wait For Congress to Act on Jobs

“We’re not going to wait for Congress. So my instruction to… all the advisers who are sitting around the table is, scour this report, identify all those areas in which we can act administratively without additional congressional authorization, and just get it done,” the president said at a meeting of his Jobs and Competitiveness Council in Pittsburgh.

If Congress does not pass the bill in full, the president reiterated his plan to adopt a piecemeal approach to pass the American Jobs Act. ”If they don’t pass the whole package, we’re going to break it up into different parts,” he said.

Screw the American peasants. It's good to be a king.

Defund the entire Oboma administration, then impeach.

If EVERY republican doesn’t come out and condemn this as they begin impeachment procedures, we’ve got less time left than we thought.

I heard a congressman - from Texas I think - on Mark Levin and he had read this bill and was explaining some of the really disgusting things in it. It would effectively shut down the small independent oil drillers for one. There were other things but can’t remember them.

Obama and his communist buddies are relentless. They wouldn’t even try most of this crap if we had a decent media.

Don’t let some old piece of paper from centuries ago get in the way of some dictatorial actions.

Oh, that pesky Constitution,...Obama sees it as only an inconvenience that can be worked around. He continues to commit impeachable acts. When will the Congress tell him to stuff it?

The “Jobs Act” is only a campaign tool Obama is using in order to blame the congress for doing nothing in support of his agenda. I detest him and his minions.

Here come the executive orders to enact regulations.

It is already here! And not just Obama, although he is fully aware of how this has been used in the past! The Department of Labor FORCES companies to post specific labor laws and policies and will FINE companies who refuse to post these specific laws. Some of these are based on EXECUTION ORDERS which were issued! That is BS!

It is RIDICULOUS that these departments and agencies can just create regulations and policies which FORCE companies to alter their normal business actions!! Simply stated, if these agencies and departments are doing this, then what in the hell is Congress for...just to create more agencies?!?

It is time that we DEMAND Congress do the job which it is designed to do - not pass the buck to some other group of NON-ELECTED, NON-ACOUNTABLE bureaucrats and people with NO FIDUCIARY responsibility to do the right thing for the American people! Politicians are supposed to be held accountable by the American people via the power of the ballot box! How can we do that when, regardless of who is elected, these bureaucrats are going to do what is in THEIR best interest? It is time to start shutting down departments and agencies and having Congress do these jobs! Then, when they make stupid policies and ideas, we can get rid of these idiots!

When does he dissolve Congress and rule by decree? He needs to issue a five year plan and start infrastructure projects like ole beloved Joe Stalin, too.

His jobs bill would never work anyway, even if it were passed. There's plenty of money already in the system, but people are hording it (along with food) BECAUSE of Obomas policies. If Oboma goes, people will loosen up. The country will once again flourish.
Oboma, and not a jobs bill, is Americas problem.

... scour this report, identify all those areas in which we can act administratively without additional congressional authorization
... to fund kickbacks and patronage with more debt.

“The media will say we’re doing this “for jobs” (general laughter)...”
