Obama sets new record for regulations, 527 pages in just one day

President Obama has just set a new record for rules and regulations, his administration spitting out 527 pages worth in just one day, as he races to put his fingerprint on virtually every corner of American life and business.
According to the Competitive Enterprise Institute, the administration has just shattered the old record for pages of regulations and rules published by the in-house journal, the Federal Register.
At 81,640 total pages for 2016, it ranks first and 235 pages more than all of those published in 2010, the previous record.

Might as well make it a million. Next month, it’s all going to be poof-cloud.

WHAT???? How about 1-21-2009.That may ultimately happen, but you have to see what was the regulations were before the Liberal Messiah took office. Maybe they aren't good either. So start with voiding all post-election regulatory changes and then review the rest.

It may all come down to how dedicated an enemy islamist soebarkah is.

This has the possibility of being the most dangerous 63 days in my 70+ year lifetime - including the bombing of Japan with nukes, the Berlin wall AND THE ENTIRE COLD WAR PERIOD. Back then the USSR had 40,000 and the USA topping out a 30,000+ nuke warheads pointed at each other BUT both states subscribing to MAD.
Is it possible the Islamic sympathizer Obie could try to bring forth the 12th Iman Muhammad al-Mahdi?
Obama has all the his alphabet agencies staffed with his LEFTIES which makes it all but impossible for Trump to fire these

“Regulations” are just unconstitutional “laws” without a legislature.

If I knew Ø could be convicted, save the regs and have Ø use them as toilet paper in the slammer.

All of his Executive Orders can be undone with one single EO.
I do hope that does happen.

Obastard is just trying to bury us in paperwork hoping we’ll miss a few pages when PRESIDENT TRUMP starts to ZERO it all out.
PRESIDENT TRUMP (damn, I love saying that) will just put a team on researching all of the USURPERS EO’s and policy changes since 2008 and cancel them as they come to light.
Or better still just write one EO canceling everything that has not been voted on and approved by congress.

I am so sorry Obama has exposed his narcissism to the public so obviously. In my opinion he has become mentally ill as his public support he never had is now laughing at him and his vain attempts to glorify his misbegotten days in the White House are culminating in “regulations”. I mean there is only so much golf one can play, right?
I suppose he has minions helping him out to figure out the most mayhem he can let loose in the 26 working days he has left.... I wonder if the xerox machine is burning up? He could be regulating the terms of office for Trump to 2 hours or less. He could be mandating all of us rabblerousers out to Outer Mongolia.
Maybe we should take a peek?

Exactly. We should really check those new regs just put in...all 500+ of them. Most likely some of it is setting Christian church underground and the minarets on every corner of every street in the USA. How irritating can he get? Probably pretty irritating.
