See my breaking news story from earlier....Hussein will now be portrayed as "Reagan". And the clowns in the media will play along.

Congress can just send him a bill cutting the budget by 50%.

He doesn’t need any “powers”.

As someone who has increased the size and scope of Govt. more than any President since FDR, that’s laughable.

Hidden will be the power to MAKE GOV't BIGGER.

Obama has increased the size of gov't from 20% GDP to 25% GDP.

WHAT else would you expect a MUSLIM TRAITOR playing President to do?

The majority of Americans still won't even consider the fact we have a MUSLIM RADICAL playing POTUS.

So, what are you doing later? ;-) Just kidding.

But so is Obama - he has no intention of downsizing anything, other than free enterprise. We do not need one large Federal department doing what two smaller departments shouldn't be doing in the first place.

He could start by allowing Arizona to arrest illegal aliens.

I suspect the illegal head of the illegitimate Consumer Financial Protection Commissariat, Richard Cordray, will begin his destructive swath through the economy.

This CFPB sounds like a make work, nothing bureaucracy designed to employ rat friends and relatives. Stand by. Hussein took a measured risk to get his pet Stalinist appointed.

Hussein has less than a year to complete his destructive plans.

My take on this agenda

obama wants to “consolidate” smaller agencies under a larger one, headed by one of his czars or radical cronies

the bigger their agencies, the bigger their budget

and the more power they wield to issue ridiculous crippling directives against the people and outside the checks and balances of Congress and the courts

Anyone with a brain knows obama is no “small government” guy — LOL!

A one-party dictatorship run by the executive office is not necessarily a “smaller, more efficient” government

Will he begin this great “streamline” by firing anyone who is ACTUALLY doing any type of *oversight* work?

OR....maybe he’ll put the Defense Department directly under the Department of Injustice and Homeland Security?

Leftists always claim to be “shrinking government” when they cut defense and military personel.

A dictatorship with only an executive branch is far leaner and more efficient than one burdened by those pesky legislative and judicial branches.

Get with the program, or get re-educated in this new world order.
