why can't you get enough people to vote for your big biz water-carrying candidates JimCrowie1958Maybe its because you people are stuck in the 1950's EXCEPT for your failed economic theories like trickle down.
As President Obama's critics grow increasingly concerned about his use of executive power, they're also examining their options.
In the House, more than 100 Republican members have signed on to the Stop This Overreaching President (STOP) Resolution. In it, Rep. Tom Rice, R-SC, lays out the ways in which he believes the president has violated his Article 2, Section 3 constitutional duty to "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed."
Rice points to the president's unilateral modifications to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), welfare-to-work requirements and immigration laws.
If a majority of House members support the STOP resolution, it would authorize a civil lawsuit against Obama. In the past, members have had a tough time launching lawsuits against a sitting president.
Former Democratic congressman Dennis Kucinich of Ohio tried to sue both President George W. Bush and Obama. Both times, a federal judge turned away his lawsuits.
Georgetown University law professor Nicholas Rosenkranz has doubts that the current effort will be successful, but grasps the motivation. "I quite understand their frustration," he says, adding, "The president has taken a lot of actions that seem a bit more like writing law or rewriting law - rather than taking care that it be faithfully executed."
Rosenkranz says another tool could be more effective for Congress: the power of the purse. He notes that it gives members a great deal of leverage when they're united.
It's a tactic Sen.Mike Lee, R-Utah, is publicly floating. "James Madison talked about this and said when the president abuses his power, the best thing Congress can do is withhold funding for the president, so the president can't continue to hurt the American people," he said.
There is yet another option which few are willing to publicly discuss. "A check on executive lawlessness is impeachment," Rosenkranz said in a House hearing last December. Kucinich says the maneuver should be reserved for only "the most extraordinary circumstances," but admits "it's in the Constitution as a check against the abuse of power."
There is something called hyperbole; you should read up on it. Sunni was obviously engaging in hyperbole. Putin is to the left of Obama with respect to individual rights and personal freedoms, meaning he wants tighter restrictions which is a leftard thing.
Which President has been better than Obama when it comes to personal freedom?
- He has expanded gun rights.
- He has increased freedom by uncoupling your insurance from your job.
- His Justice Department is not prosecuting marijuana offenses.
That's 3 off the top of my head. Who has been better?
Abraham Lincoln.
Dennis Kucinich is a good man, though a lefty, he is an honest patriot lefty. Which is why the Demofascists ran him out of office, lol, just like the GOP is trying to run TPM folks out too.

Thank you very much!
If you have to go all the way back to 1860 to find a better president on personal freedoms, then President Barack Obama stands out as a beacon of liberty.

You're a fucking idiot.
He wasn't run out of office, except by Republicans, who gerrymandered his district in 2010, combining his with the neighboring district, which also had a popular Democratic Representative. She ended up winning their race.
Why are you such a goddamned liar?

Lol, funny.
Dems controlled the Ohio House of Representatives in 2010, and lost it after the elections that year, but the house that redistricted Kucinich had a majority Demofascists, lying jackass.

I misspoke on the year. The 2010 election was the Republican take-over of the House, and they gerrymandered Kucinich's district when they came into office in 2011. Which is why he lost in 2012 (not 2010) in the way I correctly described:The 111th Congress House of Representatives was Democrat controlled, and they favored his Democratic opponent who won.

JimBowie1958 is in a slow mental health downward spiral too, you can see it in his posting behavior over time. A disabled bored bitter man who's got nothing to do but shake his fist at the world and post delusional rantings (usually punctuated with "lol" or "rofl") on these forums.Hes insane, he doesnt know hes lying, an aspect of his mental illness.

Why are you linking to state representatives? Has nothing to do with what we are talking about. You're a moron.

But you're too much of a coward and dishonest piece of shit to admit you are wrong because you have no honor or integrity.

JimBowie's emotional and mental abilities have been disintegrating for some time now. He is a metaphor for the far reactionary right.
America is unraveling at a stunning speed and to a staggering degree. This decline is breathtaking, and the prognosis is dim.
For starters, Obama now rules by decree. Reportedly for the 27th time, he has changed the rules of Obamacare singlehandedly, with neither congressional approval nor even ceremonial resolutions to limit his actions. Obama needs no such frivolities.
“That’s the good thing about being president,” Obama joked on February 10. “I can do whatever I want.” In an especially bitter irony, Obama uttered these despicable words while guiding French president François Hollande through Monticello, the home of Thomas Jefferson — a key architect of America’s foundation of limited government.
That very day, Obama decreed that the Obamacare mandate for employers with 50 to 99 workers would be postponed until 2016 (beyond an earlier extension to 2015), well past the November 2014 midterm elections. This eases the pressure on Democrats, whose campaigns would suffer if voters saw their company health plans canceled due to Obamacare’s unnecessary, expensive, mandatory benefits — e.g. maternity coverage for men.
So, by fiat, Obama has postponed the employer mandate. When Senator Ted Cruz (R., Texas) effectively tried to do this through legislation last fall, Democrats virtually lassoed and branded him.
Also by decree last week, Obama decided unilaterally to soften political-asylum rules. Refugees and other immigrants who provide terrorists “limited material support” now can come to America. So what if someone merely clothed and fed Mohamed Atta or Khalid Sheikh Mohammed? After all, garments and meals don’t blow up. Welcome to America, Mustafa!
Meanwhile, the Justice Department is working hard to revoke the asylum of and deport the Romeikes. This evangelical-Christian family was granted refuge in America to escape prosecution for homeschooling their children, which German law forbids.
So, Obama believes, those who are only somewhat helpful to deadly, anti-U.S. terrorists may become Americans, while religiously oppressed homeschoolers who face prison should get the hell out.
The transparent electoral motive that fuels so many of Obama’s executive orders seems unprecedented. The tone is also brand new. Obama’s predecessors have signed executive orders and, more or less, left it at that. But Obama pounds his chest as he does so. As he told Congress at last month’s State of the Union address: “America does not stand still — and neither will I. So wherever and whenever I can take steps without legislation to expand opportunity for more American families, that’s what I’m going to do.”
While appalled Republicans sat on their hands, Democrats stood up and shouted like equatorial, rubber-stamp parliamentarians: “Hooray! We are irrelevant!”
Chilling.
JimBowie represents an older group of Americans that can't stand the Republic of their youth, for better or for worse, as all human institutions do, change with the pressure of time.
Thus, he expounds with
Go fuck yourself, ass hole, again.
roflmao, you are delusional
and you are not a metaphor at all but a real live jack-boot licking traitor to the Republic, you whiney little bitch
The above is only his sniveling inability to accept what is and that he cannot change it.
If you think that the US is not unraveling take a look at the number of states that want to split in two or more.
