His job is to enforce the law NOT to make law.

This must STOP! He is way out of control.

"By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America... "

And that right there, Houston, is why so many "birthers" think we have a big problem sitting in the WH

[cripplecreek]

This is the same man who appointed another one of his friends as Great Lakes Czar, given him billions of dollars and no one has heard from him since. Dick Durbin now wants Obozo to appoint a carp czar.

This is also the man who stands in the way of a lawsuit brought by Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and supported by Ohio, Indiana, and Ontario against Illinois for a temporary closure of the Chicago shipping canal to prevent the spread of the asian carp.

The man is a freaking moron and a disaster for everything he touches.

I KNEW that Pet Rock craze would lead to something like this

[CPOSharky]

For anybody who wants to work on, play on, visit, or live near, any of these bodies of water or their beachs, fagetaboutit.

This will be more strictly enforced than our borders.

[cripplecreek]

When speaking of the great lakes (or any other body of water) its best to understand that they generally mean the entire watershed. I live on the interior of Michigan and I'm supposed to get approval from the Army Corps of Engineers to put in a permenant dock at the little lake I live on.



They don't want their control to end at the shorelines, they intend their control to go all the way to the groundwater under the land. For a water state like Michigan, it would mean getting rid of pretty much every last one of us. Personally I'm not so sure many of our economic problems aren't deliberate and rooted in the idea of evacuating us.

From Sec 2,1.”(vii) exercise rights and jurisdiction and perform duties in accordance with applicable international law, including respect for and preservation of navigational rights and freedoms, which are essential for the global economy and international peace and security”
Did I miss the part about US Law and securing the interests of the US and its citizens???

[PIF]

Since the city of Milwaukee insists on dumping raw sewage from the Deep Tunnel when capacity reaches 40%;

Since the city has dumped at least 700,000,000 gallons (prior to the storms on the past few days) of combined raw sewage and run off so far this year into Lake Michigan;

It is hereby resolved to create the Office of Great Lakes Crap Tsar in order to regulate environmentally friendly dumping of raw sewage in accordance with the Law of the Sea; and to enact social justice for the common good and collective salvation of the Great Lakes regions.

[PIF]

Actually various DNRs are attempting to redefine “navigable waterways” to any body of water no matter how small, pond, rain puddle, rain run off creek, or other depressions containing water either on permanent or temporary basis...

[PIF]

Did I miss the part about US Law and securing the interests of the US and its citizens???

Yes you did... it is in the small print... under Article X, subsection (ix) of paragraph 10 in Section XXI of the Law of the Sea, wherein “US” is defied as a geographical area of the North American Continent, and “citizens” as members of various classes of political elites and Treaty Tribes.

See tag line...

[CRBDeuce]

Sneaks in ‘social justice’, LOST (Law of the Sea Treaty), subordinates US to International law, and revokes a Bush Executive order with one stroke of the pen! These commies are geniuses at destroying the economy aren’t they!

[phockthis]

[Chode]

[Chode]

the ultimate authority on my lake, Seneca Lake-NY, is the U.S. Coast Guard, because it flows into to the Erie Canal that flows into the Hudson River that flows into Atlantic Ocean

[SunkenCiv]

“Executive Order 13366 of December 17, 2004, is hereby revoked.” Thanks Cindy.

[grellis]

If you would like to be added or dropped from the Michigan ping list, please freepmail me.

100% of the state of Michigan is in the Great Lakes watershed. So much for state's rights.

[cripplecreek]

When you look at the watershed map, its pretty amazing that Illinois gets preference over the rest of the great lakes states. Great Lakes czar, Cameron Davis is another Chicago radical environmentalist.

[justiceseeker93]

Obviously "social justice" has no meaning to anyone who isn't a Marxist. What relationship does it have to the environment of the coasts and Great Lakes, anyway? Reading through this, the whole thing sounds like a bunch of bureaucratic gobbledygook.

Can anyone summarize what the revoked Bush Executive Order said? (That might be the key to understanding what the Obamatons have in mind here.)

Sigh—can’t take much more this crap—gonna retreat to take a nap. Maybe the bad dream will go away.
