Isnt it funny what you can find out on Friday evening about what our executive branch does?
For instance, Agence France-Presse reported last night that Barack Obama bypassed Congress to send $192 million to the Palestinian Authority, claiming that national security required the US to put money into Mahmoud Abbas pocket:
President Barack Obama has signed a waiver to remove curbs on funding to the Palestinian Authority, declaring the aid to be important to the security interests of the United States. A $192 million aid package was frozen by the US Congress after the Palestinians moved to gain statehood at the United Nations last September.Congress deliberately froze those funds, and not just because of the statehood demand through UNESCO. Hamas, a terrorist organization, reconciled with Fatah and has rejoined the PA, which means were putting almost $200 million into the hands of a terrorist organization.But in a memo sent to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, published by the White House, the president said it was appropriate to release funds to the authority, which administers the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
In signing the waiver, Obama instructed Clinton to inform Congress of the move, on the grounds that waiving such prohibition is important to the national security interests of the United States.
The language of the Palestinian Accountability Act could not be clearer: [N]o funds available to any United States Government department or agency
may be obligated or expended with respect to providing funds to the Palestinian Authority. Obama literally waived that statutory language off yesterday afternoon.

He’s a Muzzie. Everything else is for show.
Liberal American Jews will eat this up. They believe in “social justice” for pseudo-theocratic moslems but hate the living guts of American Fundamentalist Protestants.
What Obama’s Muslim brotherhood wants, it gets.
bwahahahahahahah, yeah, right.
some of that money is sent back to the commie election fund. Now can we see the khalidi tape.
I sincerely hope that one day he ends up in prison for fraud and loses his "Pres_ _ential" (I'll give him an ID when he give the American public one) pension and Secret Service protection.
. . . and our spineless Republicans in Congress will do . . . nothing.
What hypocrites demon rats are. The Boland amendment barred funds to Nicaraguan rebels and when Reagan tried to LEGALLy circumvent it, the liberals went ballistic. Specially prosecutor assigned... Hussein ILLEGALLY funds pali-thugs and the press yawns!
...On the morning of Obamas first day in office of January 21, 2009, one of the first, if not the first phone call he made as American leader was to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.
Less than five months later, on June 4, 2009, Obama kicked off his American apology tour in a speech at Cairo University in Egypt, co-hosted by Al-Azhar University. Obama honored a promise made during his presidential campaign to give a major address to Muslims from a Muslim capital during his first few months as president.
To date, Obama has not yet stepped foot in Israel, our only democratic ally in the Middle East.
Which Congress will move for impeachment? The Executive Branch has known for a long time that there aren’t any consequences. We’ve had an Imperial Presidency for nearly a century.
Obama gives $1.5 billion to Muslim Brotherhood (thread April 9)
This week, the Obama administration quietly released $1.5 billion in foreign aid to the new Egyptian government, now dominated by a Brotherhood-led coalition in parliament soon to be joined by an Ikhwan (i.e., Brotherhood) luminary as president.
It is not easy to find the announcement. With the legacy media having joined the Obama reelection campaign, we must turn for such news to outlets like the Kuwait News Agency. There, we learn that, having dug our nation into a $16 trillion debt hole, President Obama has nevertheless decided to borrow more money from unfriendly powers like China so he can give it to an outfit that views the United States as an enemy to be destroyed.
No balls Boner? No way.
Get used to the Dictator assisting his alliance of collectivists and terrorists when he gets his “Flexibility” that he bragged about to his friend Vladimir.
Zeig Heil! Obama Il Duce!
No surprise that a liberal fascist would give a 192 million dollar arms purchase capability to Hamas, a theocratic fascist organization. Hell, if they were IN America, they would be incorporated as a non profit corporation sureptitiously operating a Obama PAC receiving millions in kick back.Or are they? Thugs all.
Where is the oversite for the use of our tax dollars? I wonder if such executive spending is a reason not to pay income tax?/Sarc.
We are no longer a nation of laws but a nation subject to the whimsey of a “king” on any given morning.I can hardly wait for a few adverse decisions from SCOTUS....the Constitution is dead.

I can’t believe it. My mouth just dropped open.
I’m so tired of these Friday night give-aways, I can’t take it.
the boy has GOT to go...
IMPEACH!
Obama says, bend over Boehner.

No - see post #10. It’s only Dems - the liberal media and loud-mouthed leftists crucify any Republican (sorry), even when he tries doing things the right way.
Thanks opentalk.
Add it to the articles of impeachment.
It is important for our national security interests to get this man out of the White House on Jan. 20, 2013.
Next it will be Mitt sends money to Utah.
He’s a Mormon. Everything else is for show.
Obama(care) learnt from Romney(care) - Romney Learns from Obama.
Obama: I started the destruction
Romney: But it’s ‘my turn’ to finish it.
Romney. Romney. Has anyone seen Myth? Bueller.
“Obama bypasses Congress and names himself Dictator in Chief and sends even more taxpayer money to his various and sundry friends?”
Our tax dollars are going to LaRaza and Kenya as well, so this no shocking discovery.
The New Black Pampers skated on the 2008 voter intimidation case and the George Zimmerman bounty crimes.
See my tagline.
We have to blast their phone lines - response vm is full, try your call later all lines are busy (off the hook) and email account response- ‘thank you for your interest, we are looking into it’.
If nothing else, it interferes with the flow.
“What’s next?”
Some possibilities:
1). Amnesty for undocumented immigrants through the pardon power. The only question is will this happen before or after the election?
2). Reparations. Likely will happen in the second term. Once he announces will Congress dare not fund at the risk of riots in every major city?
3). Unilateral nuclear disarmament. He one day orders the military to destroy all nuclear weapons. Short of impeachment, what will stop him?
4). Presidential order forgiving all government student loans. Likely to happen weeks before the election to energize the youth vote as well as the votes of parents. What’s to stop hiim?
5). Bailouts of bankrupt liberal states — California, Illinois, Michigan, Massachussets. Use left over TARP funds to start the process with one state. Once the precedent is set will Congress deny bailouts to other states?
6). Nationalization of the oil and pharmaceutical industries. He can likely do pharmaceuticals through Obamacare if it is upheld. Once successfully accomplished with pharma he goes after oil through decree.
7). Government mandated unionization of private sector companies with DOL and NLRB coordinating with unions to organize target firms.
8). Regulation of talk radio and Internet speech during second term.
9). EPA shutdown of all coal fired electrical plants.
10). Mandate national service. Combine Americorps, Job Corps, and other service organizations to form a national service organization he controls. It may be done under the guise of job creation. This monster bureaucracy will be a giant community organizing agency and political police force.
11). Declaring a national emergency and suspending the writ of habeus corpus. Order Congress to recess. Call a new constitutional convention to write a modern governing document.
This is a great election year issue. We need to use it.
Remember all those campaign contributions from Gaza?
...Another question involves the unprecedented contributions made to Obamas 2008 presidential campaign.
The amount is somewhere between $650 to $750 million, depending on the source, and a lot of that money reportedly originated from outside of this country. Is this what the founders intended? What strings came with such contributions?
not his money but ...from his Muslim outreach to Egypt, Libya moves, there are no boundaries. He seems to be accelerating the handouts to ME, still many months before the election

Tell that to those who now say they won’t vote for President. I agree with you, and while I am not at all happy with Mittens, if we don’t do everything we can to get this illegal, America-hàting Islamist who is hell-bent on destroying the U.S. and Israel out, we’re done. This WH occupier is like no other and he MUST BE STOPPED.
This is one more example of why just having Republican control of House and Senate won’t be enough to deter THIS President.
I will tell you a little secret.
Remember the 'cash for clunkers' program?
Do you know where all the 'scrapped' metal went?
Apparently, China didn't want MONEY, they needed STEEL. So...
BUMP
The press (MSM) doesn't care about truth - right/wrong - or being consistent. The MSM cares about 'their team' winning. They're biased, one-sided, and bigoted - yet they wonder why citizens are dropping subscriptions, turning off the news - and in general not trusting them... Amazing.
He has made it quite clear he will circumvent Congress and the courts. He dares anyone to stop him and they won’t. It’s up to us to stop him with our votes in November.
So based on your post, you clearly recognize the lawlessness of this man and yet you somehow still believe we can remove him office with “votes” in Nov.? Ha ha ha that’s hilarious!!

“Weve had an Imperial Presidency for nearly a century.”
179 years at least. Since President Jackson.
Very clever little play on letters
