What’s this about creeping? He’s always been a statist.
The point Henninger’s trying to make here is that Obama is continuing to use his “bully pulpit” of the Presidency to make sweeping legal changes to America without a peep from Congress or the SCOTUS. As he appoints other communist statists, we lose more freedom to an executive branch without any reigns.
We’re a horse-drawn carriage with SCOTUS at the whip and Congress in the buggy while the reigns have been snipped and the horses smacked, careening down the road toward totalitarianism with King Obama standing at the end of the walk to stop the stampede.
