Great Leader Obama can erase the work requirement in our welfare benefits law and stop deportation of illegals so they can stay to vote (illegally) with a stroke of his mighty presidential pen.
Why can’t he similarly pen a note suspending the mandate to turn needed food corn into a third rate additive to gasoline and thus moderate the price rise of corn due to the drought?
Maybe closer to the election he will do it as we voters have such brief memories and need to be jacked up real close to the election for the act to influence us.
Apparently the EPA sets the ethanol requirement administratively so Obama could order the EPA to suspend or reduce it.

Which brings to mind the story of Stalin(?) plucking a chick and then showing people how happily it then cuddled in his palm for warmth...
( I think I’ve mixed that story up LOL! But do remember the point of it.)
