Ron Paul: Obama Presidency On The Verge Of Being A "Dictatorship"
RCP ^ | November 9, 2011 | RCP

Posted on 11/09/2011 10:02:55 AM PST by GlockThe Vote

Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) says President Obama's continued use of the executive order "brings the modern presidency dangerously close to an elective dictatorship."

"That is arrogant," Paul said of Obama frequently using the executive order function as of late. "It is flaunting the Constitution and the whole principle of how we’re supposed to operate. The idea they can just do this and take over the legislative function and brag about it -- and Congress does nothing and the courts do nothing about it, it's very, very bad."

"He's dictatorial, is what he is," Rep. Paul said before the end of the interview.

A splendid vent on behalf of all of us, and true. This is why we need Ron Paul types around. This curmudgeon is simply a clear and present danger to Marxists like nobody else actually, and noisy in the process. My heart sings on this one.

A little late for “verge”, I would say.

Its good to have Ron Paul running for President ... he doesn't have to hold back the rhetoric when "telling it like it is." He has no need to parse his words.

Ron Paul, you're a wacko ... but I give you credit for this one!

Well, gee whiz! Let’s all run out and vote for RuPaul! /sarc

When RuPaul says something tough about Islamo-Nazi Iran, let me know.

It’s gone way past verge.

Countdown to Hussein’s dry run is at 55 minutes and counting.

With Nobama doing what he is doing - Iran will be our least concern.

"brings the modern presidency dangerously close to an elective dictatorship."

Oboma has ordained himself king, and no one is being told about it.

Jesus said Satan would fall from heaven like lightening. The ancient Hebrew (Arabic) word for lightening (flash, gleaming sword) is "Baraq", pronounced "Bar-Rawk."
Satan said he'd reach the height of the Heavens. The Hebrew word for high place, or heaven is "Baw-Maw", pronounced "Bamah."
"Waw" or "Vaw", pronounced "O" is a conjunction connecting the two.

In other words, Satan was cast down from heaven having great rage. He claimed he'd rise up to the heavens and declair himself to be God. In Hebrew, that would be ""Baraq Vaw Bam-Maw, or Bar-Rawk O Bamah.".

Just thought I'd pass that on. Check it out for yourself.

I think a nuclear powered Iran is a very large concern.

Laws can be repealed. The economy can be fixed. (Reagan did it.) Executive orders can be rescinded.

Human beings can’t be brought back to life when they’re atomized by some maniac yelling “Allah Akhbar!” while detonating a dirty nuke he brought across our porous border.

Did anyone notice that when Obama signed an executive order this morning, he called it a “bill”?

Paul is right on this one.

That bothers me almost more than what Obama is doing.

Not at all. I’m simply going to do my best to make sure it doesn’t come that.

I don’t vote for people who have Stormfront raise money for them. I don’t vote for people who are endorsed by Code Pinko. I don’t vote for people who calls OWS “victims”.

If it came down to it, I’d vote for RuRu over Chairman Obama. But I know he’s got a better chance of winning Powerball and getting hit by lightning than he does winning the Republican nomination.

King Obama is America's first dictator. And with the average intelligence of American voters he might be king for another 4 years. You want to see ignorant Americans, just take a look at the Union membership and the current street thug rioters.

Paul is right on a lot of things. Foreign policy he is out there, I agree - but on domestic issues he is spot on.

But, but... Ron Paul seems to love him some dictators!

Is his advice on how to deal with Dictator 0bama the same as his advice on how to deal with the tyrants in Iran?
