Last fall, President Obama decided to cancel a hugely expensive new EPA rule designed to cut smog levels across the country. Obama said he did so out of concern about the rule’s impact on jobs. It was just one of many costly regulations the Obama administration has put on hold or delayed in the run-up to the election, as the president tried to dispel the impression that he’s anti-business. “I have continued to underscore the importance of reducing regulatory burdens and regulatory uncertainty,” Obama said when he put the brakes the smog standard, “particularly as our economy continues to recover.” But if Obama wins re-election, all these postponed rules, along with a host of other costly regulations, will likely hit the economic shores.

Emperor [DICTATOR] 0bama will take the election as a mandate and will really begin to issue “Executive Orders” without congress. Goodbye Freedom and Goodbye Constitution!
R/R need to show what the EPA has done and what will come by Exec Orders if re-elected.
It truly is as if McCain is running again and that R/R don’t really want to win and really will benefit from 0bama.

This is the stuff that gives me nightmares...the stealth regulation craze. It is a SIMPLE thing to explain to the public and I don’t know why Romney and/or the GOP don’t holler about this. EDUCATE THE ELECTORATE, Mr. Romney.
From your piece:
In the first 3 1/2 years, his administration issued 37% more “economically significant” regulations — those costing $100 million or more — than had the Bush administration in his first 3 1/2 years, according to data from the White House Office of Management and Budget.
A broader analysis by the Heritage Foundation that includes independent agencies found Obama had imposed nearly four times as many new regulations as Bush in his first three years, with a combined price tag of $46 billion a year.
And Obama has added more than 11,000 pages (or 7%) to the Federal Register — the guidebook containing all the federal rules.
The FOUR branches of gov’t;
1. Executive
2. Legislative
3. Judicial
4. Regulatory
If we get another 4 yrs of Bam, get ready for the worst depression in American history which will make the ‘30’s look like a Sunday school picnic. Added to that will be his control over the SCOTUS,our nowhere foreign policy, the poor leadership and defunding of the military could easily put us in WW3.
Romney needs to GET AGGRESSIVE NOW!!
He can’t let the media cajole him into silence.
Romney better plan on kicking @$$ in the debates.
He needs to be able to factually contradict Obama’s lies during the debates and he needs to be able to cite what he would do differently.
So where is all this money that Romney supposedly raised?
I have not seen one of his ads on TV for weeks. Only that disgusting Obama one where Clinton wags his finger at me and tells me that only Barry can save the middle class.
New series of ads out last night and this a.m.
I’ve seen one, and heard Byron York mention a couple others.
Once again the media are trying to railroad this election
They surround and pester Romney all day every day, and only report “the gaffes”
They let Obambi do whatever he wants and in fact let him review their stories before publishing them
Romney needs to stay the hell away from the left-wing media and go 24/7 on talk radio and Fox news and GBTV
They can fill his time much more effectively- without the ‘gotcha’s’ all day long
And he will reach a bigger audience than all those others combined
Who pays these reporters at stations that have no viewers?
Job #1 for Romney has to be DEFUND THE LEFT!!!!!!!!!!!
Good question - I have not seen a damn thing from Romney.
If Romney does not win it will not matter how much regulation is added. There will be no reason for it since the economy will outright die, freedom will die, the United States will die.
but...but...but....Romney isn’t perfect so people shouldn’t vote for him and instead let Hitler have more time to destroy us...yes, that’s the ticket...
