Bend over, here it comes. Mega-government agencies. This won't shrink anything but will grow power.

Every time you see an idea, it's always "seeking the Power....".
Just eliminate the duplicative Agencies, eliminate the EPA, DOE, and DHS for starters, and we'll save BILLIONS immediately, plus have the BONUS of being able to let private sector businesses expand and hire.
This B.S. about The Messiah coming up with a savings is simply cover for handing out more Union favoitism, more Dictatorship authorization, and more useless Government oversight.
But; look at the bright side: we can have Romney-the-RINO in November, to do the SAME things as The Messiah!

As far as I am concerned, Congress, at least the House, should not give Obama one thing for the rest of the year. He has already damaged the Nation almost beyond repair...

It’s not that he doesn’t have the power to abolish these useless agencies, it’s that he wants a big brother agency.
If he is serious, he can start by abolishing half his cabinet and their agencies.

This is a way to centralize government and give the executive more authority than the Constitution allows.

First up? House and Senate will no longer be needed. Dept Of Presidential Everything (D.O.P.E) will take it’s place.

USA goes Greek....
0bambi gets the message from Greece....
In Greece you need to show a current tax receipt/payment in order to have a car license plate....
Greeks are turning in their license plates to the tax collector and not paying their tax....
Those that don't have cars turn in their children,,,,
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2085163/Children-dumped-streets-Greek-parents-afford-them.html
so look to see the IRS and 0bamacare merge.
Prayers for abandoned Greek children.

That’s despicable. And Obama’s right on it. Nothing is too low for the marxist.

Exactly. It will concentrate and fortify the power of the central government.

It COULD be. With Obama...it probably will be.

If he is serious, he can start by abolishing half his cabinet himself and their agencies all of his czars.
Your post needed a little editing.

Correct.
It is TIME to DownSize DC! BUT that means “eliminating” entire departments, not making bigger less efficient and less accountable monsters.
