The states have every right to push back.

The feds have every right to cut off money.

I would love to have the feds out of our state schools, so that we can get back to real education.

The problem now is not racism (we know who those assholes are and punish them severely if they act up) but technology and information services.

Those barriers are best removed at the school district level.

Cutting off federal funds for States not complying with a law is one thing, but not complying with an arbitrary decree from a president is another. Don't you agree?

Depends. Does the states have a legal right to those funds?

Equal protection otherwise the democrats would only send federal money to blue states.

"Great great another distraction, another item to keep them busy occupied, annoyed and looking over there. Yep we outsourced that work, Yep that regulation pays us even more, Yep income will increase for our people, Yep it works it always works."

"Not only does there seem to be widespread social fragmentation and disillusionment with democracy in the United States, but the possibility of reversing this sense of alienation appears to many of us to be already lost. Any democratic president who wants to institute the desperately needed reforms in health, welfare and the environment faces one of two options. He can stick by his reform program and suffer a loss of public confidence through orchestrated campaigns to publicly portray him as 'too liberal' and ineffectual (the Carter image) or too indecisive or sexually indiscreet (the Clinton image). Alternatively, a reforming democratic president can move further to the Right, forget his promises and become part of the propaganda campaign. Given the history of democratic propaganda in the United States, some of us doubt that another Roosevelt or New Deal is possible. The political system is now so attuned to business interests that this kind of reformer could no longer institute the substantial health, welfare, education, environmental and employment reforms the country needs."

And vice versa, except Republican Congresscritters would cut off funding to everyone except themselves under the rubric of "smaller government," so you might want to be careful what you wish for.

I agree that Obama as the executive officer of the US, in this case he has the authority to order so. I don't like it.

The momentum has grown sufficiently to overwhelm the regressives in this country in most cases nowadays.
The first black president, officially disposing of the confederacy, gay rights, addressing biased law enforcement, one step closer to single payer, rebuking of religious overreach, legal pot, significant growth in renewables, removal of non-violent drug offenders from ridiculous incarceration, and so on. Now this!?

Y'all have taken a beating in recent years.

Agreed. I think he's evil and he's doing his party no favors.

His place in history will not be favorable. You won't see another black president in your lifetime.

His place in history is and will be solid.
Is this an egregious overreach? Absolutely.
Obama plays chess. While you all jump up and down pulling your hair out, Obama just moved up the inevitable SCOTUS ruling by several years on this by putting it front and center. How?
No doubt there will be so many lawsuits filed by the states that the SCOTUS will have to address it. Maybe it will be just in time for the Clinton court to be settled.

Why should mine be poking out? Obugnles little EO doesn't affect me one bit, our children attend private schools.....this is one reason why, that and to keep them out of the clutches of left wing moon bats. The flip side is the backlash will be huge to this...in fact it's already started
