That set the guidelines that are in place today - Executive Orders can't undo enacted legislation, or violate the Constitution.Thanks for explaining that. Nationalizing an industry by executive order! I didn't realize Truman was such a socialist.

That EO will last about as long as it take to complete the up or down vote.
Tell us another one, Barry.

"I didn't realize Truman was such a socialist. " It's a little more complicated than that. It happened during the height of the Korean War. There were price control issues (due to the rising cost of steel because of war-time demands), and labor disputes that Truman felt would jeopardize the war effort.
There were other options available to him, but for personal and political reasons, he decided to go down the nationalization route. The Supremes slapped him back.

Pro-abortion members won't like this unless Obama assures them he will later rescind it.
Yeah. Wink wink. Nudge nudge. And IIRC there's no implementation for four years, just taxation; Hussein can wait till after the 2012 election to rescind the EO and Joe Sixpak can be re-elected twice before TSHTF. Or whatever. The camel's nose is under the tent, and 2 1/2 years is a long time.

Executive orders can be rescinded as easily as they were enacted ............ the shell game continues!

Stroke of the pen, law of the land. I don’t think this is constitutional...but then again I’m not a lawyer. Fordwared on to TN Eagle Forum...it will get back to Eagle Forum you can be sure of that.
