Why bother having a Congress? The government could save a lot of money not having to pay for 435 Congressmen, 100 Senators, and their staffs. Obama is just going to issue executive orders as he sees fit--why bother with laws passed by Congress?
We've almost reached the advanced level of 18th century Russia under Catherine the Great. Obama is our Enlightened Despot, who gets rave reviews from the intellectuals even when the policies do no good for the people of the country, and the government views the people as a bunch of serfs.

2012 will not fix anything more than the 1994 Republican victories did.

There is no bribery mechanism or motivation if there are not two sides. One to play the good cop side and one to play the bad cop side. The executive and legislative branches have been working that old routine in it’s various forms since the early 1960’s.

I bet the NRA is proud as hell for supporting Obama’s DISCLOSE act.
The DISCLOSE Act and the NRA: Some Bad News
“Just as opposition was building in the House to the unconstitutional and burdensome DISCLOSE Act, which is intended to help Democrats in the November election by stifling the political speech of corporations and many non-profit advocacy organizations (but not unions), the NRA has apparently sold out.”

There is that part of it. The Democrats raise tons of money telling people how bad the Republicans are and how they need money to save the country from the Republicans, while the Republicans raise money to save the country from the Democrats.
There is a little more truth in the latter claim since the country needs saving from the Democrats, but the Republicans aren't very good at doing anything to stop them.

I saw this on Fox, too. Looked all over FR for this story, but can only find it on the blogging section. Someone should request this be moved to the main section.

Me too. In my more pessimistic moments, I wonder there’s been a very successful coup by our enemies.

IIRC, there are established procedures for Members of Congress to challenge EOs.
Anyone else recall this, or am I having a false memory?
To: jazusamo
Methinks it is about time for the SCOTUS to smack this tin pot down a few pegs.

Liberal rule is all this is. One party, one nation, with all living off the the government somehow.
The labor department and the government grant system protect those who do not work, but take. This government is anti-business, and will stop at nothing until we are in ruin.
