In an interview with KOAA-TV, a local news channel from Colorado Springs, Colorado, President Obama says if Congress is not willing to pass legislation he wants, he will do it himself in order to win another term. Read the transcript below.
Rob Quirk, KOAA-TV: "And one year from today we will know if this a one-term or two-term president. So, I asked the president what will it take from now until then to not only win Colorado again, but reelection as well."

Oh really? Who died and made him king? He’s such a piece of garbage. The republicans should be calling a joint press conference denouncing this.

Congress looking for who to blame? Look in the mirror you stupid efn *rseholes. 35 or 40 appointed Czars and you said nothing. You whimpered at the thought of the media not loving you if you said something.

I’m sure I can’t be the only one who has thought this but in a weird way ibama may have done more for conservatism than anyone in the history of America.
If we would get a small government President he can now say,”we really do not want to end the Dept of Ed or Dept of Enviro but we do not have a choice. We do not want to institute tough workfare laws but the last Admin left us no choice.”
Haha
Nice thought anyhow.

Republican cowardice enables this marxist punk. He could have been stopped long ago if not for GOP timidity.

If this aint overreaching already what is? That's above my paygrade.
However, it's not above the paygrade of the "Chief Joints of Staff," as Rita X called them.

He’s threatened on at least one occaision to rule by Executive Order. Looks like that threat is becoming a promise.
And The Media will prostitute themselves before him for it.

I think they got in a really good batch of “Chief Joints of Staff” from the Coast guard and now they’re busy looking for the Doritos stash.
