This is a constitutional crisis and deliberately so.

Write your Representatives and Representatives. I did tonight. I also copied everyone on my email address book to do the same.

This clown of a POTUS has to be stopped. NOW!

So who’s going to stop him?

Thought so.

Go pay your taxes - your government is broke.

When even Politico sees muddy water, B.O.'s sitting neck-deep in an unsavory pile. Sooner or later, the other shoe has got to drop on this subversive POS and his apparatchiks.

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

Yes they do. Yet I doubt they do anything. Reid doesn’t care about the Senate anymore in my opinion. He was bought by the Unions last election. I doubt he has another term in him. He hates this country just as much as his boss I am thinking.

Bummer’s got corporate America on his case now. This can’t be all bad though the rhetoric that will arise from the White Hut end will be rich.

“”likely be put to the test in the courts by industry groups seeking to challenge regulations issued by the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau””

It will be fun to see just what those regulations are!!!! Sure nothing specific in the article.

When the other shoe drops on Bummer, it will be a jackboot — and he’ll just lick it.

This gives an unprecedented opportunity for the Republican Party to completely discredit itself as a major political party. And some private citizens may be lured into some conspicuous legal action against Mr. Obama where they will be destroyed by the lack of any Republican Party action to assist them. The Republicans do not even seem to have any words of defiance, just nods and mumbles. I would expect them to shove some sacrificial lamb out to face the public, and give words, snarky comments, snivels, and whines of disagreement with the coup de etat of Mr. Obama, but all just wind.
And Mr. Obama also appointed three people to the NLRB at the same time using the same rational.

Since we now have a King, at least we will save money on elections or the lack thereof.

“”When even Politico sees muddy water””

I couldn’t help but think the same thing when I read the article. Maybe - JUST MAYBE - he’s gone too far this time? We can sure hope so!

I don’t see any regulations posted on their website. It looks to me as tho’ they are going to sit back and wait for people to come to them with their complaints about everything under the sun.

How about renaming it COMPLAINTS R US?

Unless BO has the copyright (wouldn’t surprise me if he hadn’t - what with the personal seal etal) it is time for the R’s to STEAL his hope and change mantra.

I am certainly praying for “Hope and Change”

Watch the Lame Stream Media start their Obama comparisons to Bush even though Bush wasn't dumb enough to violate the Constitution when the Senate was in Pro Forma Session.

Hope and change? All Bummer gave us was rope and chains. If you can’t count on the constitution here what can you count on. No promise, no gesture by Bummer or anyone else has a meaning any more. I’d prefer frank Machiavellianism to this nihilism.

And that wizened old Marxist crone who was the Kenyan's revolutionary architect - what's her name, Frances Fox Piven, or Ilsa the Jurassic She-Beast, or something? I want to see her tossed in a maximum security cell with no communication with the outside world, for however many minutes she has left on the planet before she desiccates into oblivion. You bet your ass she probably gets 24/7 security protection from a detachment of union wharf thugs, wherever she makes her nest. And ya wanna bet that their marching orders probably have an operational thread that stretches all the way to Pennsylvania Avenue, as thin as it may be?

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."
