i know you righties love big govt with unlmited powers, but we lovers of the constitution prefer a separation of powers... like obama prefers, instead of bush with his imperial presidency and unlimited powers. You mean like firing the CEO of a private company, appointing unconstitutional "czars" for all kinds of crap, attempting to silence critics by sending thugs to beat then up, asking citizens to rat out people with different viewpoints... yeah, right. ------------------------------------------------------------ Senior Democrat Says Obama’s Czars Unconstitutional June 15, 2009Last week President Obama appointed yet another “czar” with massive government power, answering only to him. Even before this latest appointment, the top-ranking Democrat in the Senate wrote President Obama a letter saying that these czars are unconstitutional. President Obama’s “czar strategy” is an unprecedented power grab centralizing authority in the White House, outside congressional oversight and in violation of the Constitution. As of last week, Czar Kenneth Feinberg has the authority to set the pay scale for executives at any company receiving government money (and how many aren’t, these days?). Czar Feinberg has the power to say that someone’s pay is excessive, and to make companies cut that pay until the czar is pleased. Congress did not give Czar Feinberg this authority. For that matter, Congress has not authorized any of the czars that President Barack Obama has created. Over the past thirty years presidents have each had one or two czars for various issues, and once the number went as high as five. But now, by some counts President Obama has created sixteen czars, and there may be more on the way. Each of these has enormous government power, and answers only to the president. -------------------------------------------------------- "big govt with unlimited powers"... indeed. You're such an idiot you can't see what going on right in front of you. |
