"Checks and Balances? We don't need no stinking checks and balances!"

2/21/2012 1:37 PM ET (RTTNews) - The Obama Administration on Tuesday rolled out a three-part plan to spur rural economies, using methods meant to bypass legislative action - part of an effort to push economic stimulus without sparking another face-off with Congress.
Under the initiative, the government would prioritize the purchase of bio-based products, promote rural job growth and develop a rural health care workforce. This will be accomplished through executive orders which do not require congressional approval.
Specifically, Tuesday's initiatives direct the federal government to accelerate its bio-based purchasing process over the next two years, and to focus on products such as paints, solvents, soaps, detergents and lubricants. The number of products that are designated as bio-based would also expand by 50 percent.
Meanwhile, jobs in rural areas will be promoted by a nation-wide program valued at $15 million, with efforts coordinated among several federal agencies. The program streamlines the process for obtaining technical assistance and grant or loan programs.
The health care initiative would increase and better coordinate resources for technical and community colleges, which will aim to train and equip civilians in rural areas as health care information technicians at local hospitals.

Must be nice to be king, eh?
Bio-Based equals the next Solyndra scam. We pay to front their companies, they give contributions to the Marxist-in-Chief, they go bankrupt.
"Checks and Balances? We don't need no stinking checks and balances!"
He needs to stay the hell away from this rural country.
It’s not ‘stimulus’! Haven’t we established that now, after three years of this nonsense?
King of kickbacks!

1. Liquidate the kulaks.
2. Collective agriculture.
3. ???
4. SOCIALISM!
It amazes me how many Americans do not realize that we have a communists King running America.
I’m no longer even convinced this is to stimulate votes, at least not directly. Flyover country is very cool towards Obama. This is just another way of steering tax monies into Obama’s campaign war chest, where he will then go and spend on propaganda in places where he expects to have a chance of getting votes (i.e. inner cities).
Where is the money coming from for this? That source needs to be removed as it is obviously not constitutional.
When will it become clear to America that this arrogant prick has no clue how to govern in a collaborative fashion? Will they not understand he is at heart a fascist?
How long before Obama starts mimicking Larry the Cable Guy? As this indicates, the new motto of the Obamanation seems to be “git er done”.
Blink and you will miss it.
