“Obama also has promised to limit President Bush’s practice of using “signing statements” to amend legislation”
What a relief. I was worried about Bush doing something after he left office.
Until the first terrorist attack and his poll numbers hit single digits...
Isn’t this SOP for incoming presidents no matter which party they come from?
What idiots. A signing statement cannot amend a law. It is merely the president's statement as to his interpretation of the law. A court is perfectly free to consider this interpretation or just ignore it. The statement is essentially meaningless from a legal standpoint.
RE: military policy “don’t ask, don’t tell”
Now ok to parade drag queens at bases in combat zones and local areas of Iraq and Afghnistan.
signed, obambi.
Sounds like Mr. Obamacorn doesn’t approve of “harsh interrogation” of Islamic terrorists. Don’t tell me he isn’t a muzzie.
Are Presidential Executive Orders that easily revoked? I thought the coal that Bubba sequestered in Utah was an irrevocable Exec Order....
Every president has used signing statements.
Not that the facts matter.
As for Gitmo. Let him stand with the terrorists.
Patriot Americans will not stand with him.
I’m all for the Obamunist reducing his executive power
to the full extent possible. He can even cede is Commander & Chief authority to Bob Gates, and just show up for
photo events and bill signings.
This is the type stuff they do in Kenya.
In Indonesia, the Junta executes the opposition whenever they finish the coup.
Very similar to what Democrats did during the KKK’s lynching era which ended around 1950, where they lynched as many white opponents of Democrats as they did blacks.
We are about to be led by a government that believes that terrorists have Constitutional rights but unborn children do not. I pray that Americans will pay attention to the consequences and that an opposition party emerges to contest the results of the last election. Judging by recent emanations from official Republican circles, such a party does not presently exist.
Close Gitmo
Ban offshore oil drilling
Ban new onshore drilling
Ban oil shale harvesting
Ban conversion of coal to oil
Ban new coal power plants
Ban new nuclear power plants
Ban dry cask storage at nukes
Require all new power plants to be solar or wind
P. BO's first hour on the job.
The entire f'en RAT party is an violation of the Constitution.
Which states are lining up to take the Gitmo detainees? Wait till the detainees start to scream about mistreatment when their new situations are nowhere as nice as they were in Gitmo. And if the authorities give in to the detainees then the main line cons will riot.
See Isiah 24:1-12
We get the government we deserve.
May God have mercy on us.
Yep, here comes the Democrats’ witch hunt. The Democrats aren’t worth the effort to defend them.
And FOCA..........I want to cry.
The return of klintonian rule.
