Obama Positioned to Quickly Reverse Bush Actions Stem Cell, Climate Rules
The Washington Post ^ | Sunday, November 9, 2008 | By Ceci Connolly and R. Jeffrey Smith

Posted on 11/08/2008 11:58:24 PM PST by tallyhoe

Transition advisers to President-elect Barack Obama have compiled a list of about 200 Bush administration actions and executive orders that could be swiftly undone to reverse White House policies on climate change, stem cell research, reproductive rights and other issues, according to congressional Democrats, campaign aides and experts working with the transition team. A team of four dozen advisers, working for months in virtual solitude, set out to identify regulatory and policy changes Obama could implement soon after his inauguration. The team is now consulting with liberal advocacy groups, Capitol Hill staffers and potential agency chiefs to prioritize those they regard as the most onerous or ideologically offensive, said a top transition official who was not permitted to speak on the record about the inner workings of the transition.

Stock up on gas now. Right now gas is just under $2 a gallon and I'm about to buy into a fuel bank at this price. I know gas will skyrocket as soon as Obama reinstates the ban and OPEC cuts production in a couple months at their meeting.

He should do this, for heck's sake. It's the culmination of his open-book life's work, and it's what he campaigned saying he was going to do, in consequence of which he won a big victory.

If we conservatives can get one good thing from Obama, maybe it will be his inspiring Americans to trust that politicians can campaign as they believe and govern as they campaign, and thereafter take the judgment of the people as to whether or not they were successful -- something on which Republicans have fallen down upon profoundly.

Now we just have to find candidates who can offer not only that compact of philosophical integrity, but a strong reason to believe that they have the intellectual depth and flexibility necessary to make to apply their philosophy to inherently unpredictable challenges.

This man is far worse than Carter or Clinton ever were. He alone will be to blame for the judgment God will pour out on this country.

I take that back, the fools and idiots who voted him into office are to blame as well.

The ultra lib dems on DU have been and still are calling for President George Bush to be handcuffed and put in jail. So far, all obamination has done is trash a former First Lady and organize a committee. Wait, and be just.

Could Obama’s submission to the world court, united nations, and eventually EU, give him an opportunity to serve in any political positions in the NEW WORLD ORDER? I don’t know enough about international politics, but if the economy gets bad enough world-wide, could the europeans ask him to take some position with them?

I love our great country, and I don't want anyone to suffer.

But it's inevitable. Socialism is a horrendously expensive way to make everyone poor. We are already heavily indebted, and the Kenyan Clown is going to spend money like water. Taxes are going to rise a lot, and the new administration will likely cause at least Carter-level inflation.

The Socialism will in itself be terrible but coupled with the individual loss of freedoms will make it ten times worse.

The Kenyan Clown has also found time to create a diplomatic incident with our ally Poland:

Obama, Polish president at odds on call

CHICAGO | President-elect Barack Obama's private conversation with Poland's president created an international disagreement Saturday, with President Lech Kaczynski saying Mr. Obama promised to continue a missile-defense system and the transition office saying the Democrat made no such commitment.

### Is this World Court action the one that will make our sodiers subject to international prosecution? ###

YES.
The 'World court' and 'ICC' (international criminal court) are all parts of the same thing (like two ends of a donkey). Its typically just referred to as 'the Hague'. Its all run by the U.N. (so we pay for it)

This is where the moonbats want Bush hauled off too and Slobo was tried (that worked out well. ten years wasted then he dies in prison, still an 'innocent' man.)

Google 'World Court' and read the Wiki link. Pay attention at the bottom of the page, where the 13 'judges' come from, that's a real laugher

“I am afraid Doug Kmiec and the many other “prolife Christians” that supported Obama publicly, and with their vote, will have to answer to their Creator for the many more babies’ deaths that will result from Obama’s election and policies.”

Agreed. Blood will be on their hands. They will be accessories to murder of multitudes.

From what I saw on F this morning, he intends to use the standard communist tactic of doing as much as he possibly can on one day, right after the inaug. I say standard because it’s like the other tactic of rounding up as many dissidents as possible in one night and taking them out and shooting them before any opposition can be organized.

Yes it will. 56 million of us said NO to Obama and his policies. He will try to get partial birth abortion reinstated too. We have to take that to a state level, like we just saw happening in the elections with gay rights and marriage. The only way to combat this is to get it to the people to vote on locally. Expressing distaste for this in your own state will help to stop this nationally. There is no reason for the extension of stem cell research as they have shown adult stem cells work just like the stem cells from the placenta. That is the real referendeum, letting hospitals donate the placenta and umbilical cord if the mother agrees. You certainly dont need a dead baby for that.

water boarding is okay for people like us, just not the enemy.

To Democrats, we ARE the enemy. We are evil, because we actively resist their agenda. Liberals don't believe in evil, unless they discover that you're a conservative - then you're the personification of evil.

He will not bring judgement to this country, He will allow us to destroy ourselves.
