Smells like BS to me. Regulations and executive orders can be solidified by putting identical language in a bill and getting it through Congress (one of Bammy's EOs regarding government fleet use of alternative fuels subsequently became law under the US Code). If that isn't done, then the rules and regs are not protected against a subsequent chief executive who wants them changed or gone.

Obama will definitely try to pack the State Department and DOJ with his minions (mostly blacks with GED-level educations) who will resist further change and try to "wait out" a hostile president.
