Meese: Obama Administration 'as Close to a Monarchy as Since Days Of George III'
Cybercast News Service ^ | 2/15/12 | Patrick Burke

Former Attorney General Ed Meese says the Obama administration’s “disdain for Congress” and its efforts to consolidate power within the executive branch through the use of “czars” makes it “as close to a monarchy as since the days of George III.” “In what was purported to be the most transparent and the most law abiding administration in history, as the president said when he was inaugurated, has now sunk into the least transparent and the most disdainful of the Constitution as we’ve ever seen,” Meese said during a panel discussion Tuesday sponsored by the American Action Network

Yes, we have a dictator, and not the benevolent kind. He is a tyrant who has no regard for the sanctity of personal liberties.

We're also going to try to replace some of our older servers and failing equipment this year so we're going to add a little extra to our FReepathon goals. John is estimating ten to fifteen thousand to do this and I'd like to get it all in place and working before the election cycle is fully heated up, so we'll try to bring in a little more now if we can and the rest next quarter.

This would never have been allowed to happen were Obama white and a Republican.

His race and Political party have protected him from being
exposed for the enemy of this country that he is.

The true racism of blacks comes out more every day. The Media has been covering for it for a while now, and it is getting worse.

Try bringing up this hatred of America and of whites and you get accused of racism, the exact thing that they are guilty of and yet for them it is ok.

I needn’t even mention Holder and his agenda in turning loose the Black Panthers. Everything Obama does is a direct attack on the America he grew up hating.

Good for Meese. I hope more will finally begin to speak out in such bold terms. I’m shocked by the lack of outrage from those GOP sissies in Congress.

If we had a House of Reps that was covetous of its constitutional powers and was concerned with our liberties, Obama would have had $0 to spend on petty assistant tyrants these past three years.

Ed, there's a reason so many folks independently suggested the concept of a “Tea Party”.
It is clearly a safe euphemism for what we all were really thinking.

“disdain for Congress”

We knew Obama had disdain for the Constitution and our nation in the 2008 campaign. Contempt for congress is to be expected.

The problem is the GOP refuses to use their Constitutional power, and seems to care more about their press clippings than the future of our society. This ain't bean bag.

And the average voter says, “who’s Ed Meese?”

Yup, and as we did with King George III, we need to “disassociate” ourselves from King Barack the Foul.
