Departing White House deputy chief of staff Nancy-Ann DeParle said in an interview out Thursday that President Barack Obama will be “flexing his authority” more in his second term.

“I think you’ll see more of his flexing his authority to use executive action, to take executive action in areas so he can do everything he can,” she told Reuters.

Why do we need a Congress?

So they can be blamed for everything blaming Bush can't go on forever. Notice how Obama blames the Congress for everything and so does the stupid a holes in the media.

Sorta says they know they will not have much opposition to it. McCain, is he going to take Obama on. Really, would he. The speaker has neutralized himself by caving in (going along with the democrats’ wants and polling), too often. The republicans need a come to Jesus moment to where they put the country first; not whether the media will ever write nice stories about them. The public will give them a better legacy through history, if they would just do the right thing. I would want my fellow citizens to respect me rather than to seek a desire of media (who are mostly corrupt/inept) approval.

“flexing his authority?” Since when did we have a President taking “Executive Action?” What other President’s have used “Executive Action?” (It’s NOT an Executive Order....it just sounds similar and fools the stoopid low info voters.)
