I know that sounds wonderful to the anti government crowd you're now trying to lead, but we need a functioning government. Blocking all Obama's appointees is not good government. Blocking legislation to reform bad things is not good government. <br /><br /><br /> I can't argue your point about expansion of presidenttial powers becase it troubles me also. But a Congress that is impotent beuse 41 senators decide to vote no and block any intiative started by Democrats troubles just as much if not more.Joe "Truth 101" Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08875151516978133598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-37409887303558910452010-02-14T14:00:32.744-05:002010-02-14T14:00:32.744-05:00I think it only fair to acknowledge the use of pre...<i>I think it only fair to acknowledge the use of presidential executive orders has been a practice of prior administrations, both democratic and republican.</i><br /><br />Oh, come on, sir, the most excessive use of Executive Orders was George W.

Executive order, expanding presidential powers, it all feeds well into the statist minded power brokers in both parties.<br /><br />Is is dangerous and you know it. That is of course unless you don't view the continued expansion of a branch of government that is already well beyond it's Constitutional mandate.<br /><br />Let me ask you, when is enough... enough?Les Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01120280762698472496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-77439645850839776342010-02-13T17:53:31.465-05:002010-02-13T17:53:31.465-05:00The republicans will try to block everything of su...The republicans will try to block everything of substance thinking it will help them this November.
