The Rev. Jesse Jackson said Sunday he is concerned about executive orders from President Bush in his last few months in office and the effect they could have on the incoming administration.

"Bush is signing away consumer and environmental laws. I mean they're running amok, you know," Jackson said.

Some Democrats in Congress have criticized several federal regulations enacted in the waning months of the Bush administration and are discussing whether some should be repealed when President-elect Barack Obama takes office in January.

The civil rights leader and former presidential hopeful also criticized the federal bailout of the financial industry and called for the outgoing president to help the ailing automotive industry.

Oh, goody. Profundities from the Pug.

President Bush is bending over backward to accommodate the President-elect. The idea that he might do something nefarious reflects more on the Reverend Jackson than on the current President.

[al baby]

we will all find out then

The executive orders are numbered. I used to know which one it was but I’ve long since forgotten.

Mt enviornmental president wasn’t so much environmental as he was just plain mental.

Too bad for you that hee is still the President until Jan 20th, 2009! get used to it.

OK, help me understand how to think like a Leftist.

The problem here, supposedly, is a “credit crunch” which means a lack of available credit for things like car loans, house refinances etc.

So, as usual, the Left’s “solution” is for the Fed Govt to borrow and spend EVEN more money thus putting the Fed Govt directly sucking up even more credit out of the market.

In addition, the Feds are going to let the tax cuts lapse so that even MORE income is drained out of the private sector.

So is this Obamnomics in a nutshell? They must destroy the US Economy in order to save it?

The hypocrisy of the left never ceases to amaze and entertain me!

Its nothing compared to Bubba’s last days.

Just wait till it's Obama's turn.

[Calpernia]

The green the environmentals worship doesn't grow on trees.

[DemonDeac]

I’m more concerend about Obama’s first.

"critics of Executive Orders argue that these two passages do not imply Constitutional authority."

Somewhere in the U.S. Code, Congress gave the President the authority he wields, bet on it.

I hope he pardons Scooter Libby and Border Agents Rameon and Campeon. I also hopes he issues a preemptive blanket pardon to anyone who in any way advised him or cooperated with the defense dept or the CIA in relation to anything having anything to do with the WOT, Gitmo, detainee questioning etc. He also needs to pardon everyone involved in the US Attorney firings. Otherwise the rats will persecute every Bushie they can think of.

On the other hand I hope like hell they investicate the crap out of Bernanke and Paulson and anybody else who had a hand in this bailout bullsh*t!

...After Jan 20, I predict that everything about the economy will amazingly improve - no tinfoil hat necessary, just watch and see....

Yep. You're right.

[Pearls Before Swine]

Its nothing compared to Bubba’s last days.

And I wonder how it will compare to Obama's first days.

[The Wizard]

JJ is an out of date, out of touch, asshole, that should butt out..

[ChicagahAl]

“the new president deserves his vision to be implemented immediately.”

We’ll keep this in mind for 2013, when Obama leaves office.

[Livin_large]

But how do you feel about him personally? /sarc

[G Larry]

This idiot has no way of knowing WHAT “this administration” is doing!

He's just making noise because he knows that he is irrelevant.

“Dear Jesse:
At least he’s not pardoning any Puerto Rican terrorist murderers, nor letting fugitive financiers off the hook (Marc Rich, are you listening?).
So, in a word, Jesse, STFU!”

Dear Jesse:
