This is a president who knows that he does not need to make anyone "happy," that there in fact is no political base that must be appeased or pleased - where else will the base go? The president of the United States is now quite literally a dictate-er: he orders what he wishes and implements what he chooses.
There is no check or balance any longer, not even the Congress's power to control the federal purse. There is no federal purse to control. There are only years-long series of continuing resolutions and special appropriations, all funded with trillions of dollars of borrowed fiat money that no creditor anywhere in the world expects will be repaid. President Obama has a government credit card with no debt limit. The power to spend is the power to control, and that is what he is doing.

Unfortunately, I think those who are supposed to be representing us actually think of us only as disposable votes - especially with the rest of the world being accepted into the country 'because they're afraid of the cartels'.
We don’t have a Congress any longer. Just a group of people who are sucking on the Government teat.
Obama owns them.
It’s really gotten scary.
Owns them or has enough dirt on them to destroy them completely. We must clean house one way or another.
It’s the Wild West and 0bama’s a Rodeo Clown.
He has an Attorney General who will let him do anything he damn well pleases. The AG in turn has the media behind him and they will let him do anything he wants.
Even if the Republicans had any courage, the media would shut down any story and they do not have the votes in the Senate to do anything except what Obama wants done.
Obozo is what you get when millions of no-information, angry feral adolescents are allowed to vote: An unqualified, unvetted malignant narcissist and sociopath. This is precisely why the democRATS are pushing to enfranchise millions more of these creatures who know less about American ideals and founding principles than legal immigrants who must study for their citizenship test. (if you doubt that statement, see the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rytc4qsiig8)
If they succeed, America — the idea — is over!
And worse — far, far worse — lurks just ahead!!
Think Hitler on steroids!!!
If we are to survive we must clean house.
Because he doesn’t have to answer for his crimes.
Sorry but I’m not seeing any evidence that anyone cares about the laws unless they agree with them and I mean everyone.
Obama has been on the wrong side of the Law his whole life
Well, Obama’s a clown, but not a rodeo clown... they are the SEALs of the rodeo circus, protecting the riders from the bulls.
Obama doesn’t even earn the title of clown.
This country has become a giant con by those taking from those still trying to produce.
The producers who are going along with the con are those who think they can get a piece of the action.
There are a few true idiots who produce and actually think it’s for the greater good.
The realists are the ones at the top, the con engineers who are the big winners, and the ones at the bottom, the recipients who vote themselves free stuff - like the guy on food stamps who has no intention of working because life is better to him by living off his fellow citizens.
The basic conflict is between those who want Liberty and those who want Totalitarianism.
For over a century various names have been applied by the advocates of Totalitarianism to their groups such as “Progressive,” “Socialist,” and “Communist.”
All such names are based on the King-Slave Style of governance.
The last King-Slave System practiced in America was the Plantation System which ended in a horrific Civil War, and consequences that we are still recovering from today.
Currently, the King-Slave Model has been sold to America as a “Safety Net,” and eagerly embraced by the “47 % “ who pay no personal homage to their King.
The remaining 53 % are being led by Republicans who are afraid of EFFECTIVELY opposing the King.
Hence, we have a watershed position in time rapidly approaching where we, the 53 % who pay our personal Federal Income Taxes, must choose between changing the Leaders of the Republican Party, or continue to financially support these same cowardly “leaders.”
Partial Government control is Socialism.
There is partial Liberty with Socialism.
Total Government control is Communism.
There is no Liberty with Communism.
Conservatives are dedicated to conserving Liberty.
The Federal politicians who support whole or partial Government control are either Socialists or Communists.
Conservatives should not donate money or time to these Socialists or Communists.
Will you LEAD, follow, or get out of the way?
Our sorry Democrats and RINOs in Congress have chosen to follow as America continues to not oppose “The Man” in “The Big House” at 1600 Plantation Avenue, in the District of Corruption.
What say all of you?
The last King Slave relationship was the Robber Barons and the poor workers who “owed their soul to the company store”. the Carnegies, Rockefellers, etc.
I believe the term “Robber Baron” was invented by Marxists who didn’t like successful businessmen. Carnegie, Rockefeller, Frick, etc built this country. The created wealth. The political class — the Progressives — achieved nothing good, but managed to sully the reputation of industrialists by calling them “Robber Barons”.
We now have a One Party government but the media is doing a fine job of keeping that fact hidden from the general population. I hate to think what is going to happen when the word gets out.
Every bit as bad as you think. My theory is that they are trying to bring back slavery by getting everyone on the government dole. Then, they will reduce us to pet status through Obama Care by being able to "benevolently" put us down when we "are too old and hurting to want to live". Last stage is to make us livestock that exist only for the benefit of the government and can be slaughtered at their slightest whim.
Which begs the question, why should conservatives continue to participate in the scam, the charade of constitutional government? Why pretend we can influence those who actually make the law?
The republic is dissolving right in front of us, in plain sight. It is time to regain our sovereignty; call an Article V amendment convention as per Mark Levin.
