    Is using Executive orders something that is new? Is President Obama the first President to use executive orders to legislate?

    Obama: 100 executive orders in just less than 3 years
    George Bush: 291 executive orders in 8 years
    Bill Clinton: 364 executive orders in 8 years
    Ronald Reagan: 381 executive orders in 8 years

    I would also state that killing American citizens who are actively participating in a war against their own country does have historical precident, it was called the Civil War.

    Sorry Charlie ! But Obama is a Fraud and governs thru sneaky use of Fiat.
    Then he has the balls to accuse Republicans for what he and his Drat
    Democrats pull.Like yesterday and the Democrats of the Super Committee
    who walked away from even debating what concessions the Republicans
    gave towards taxes.The reason,Chuck Schumer has strategized that
    his Dems wanna be able to use as a campaign slogan that Republicans are
    " RIGID " in their opposition of a Jobs package and even Taxes.
    When we now have proof care of Rand Paul and his credible source
    that it's the Democrats who are " Rigid ".

    Great points one and all.

    However, I am not sure that Dr. Paul's words are quite accurate.

    While the president has done at best a mediocre job and at worst a (*)(*)(*)(*)ty job, I don't think he has done anything different than most other presidents in regards to using rules to advance his agenda.

    I think perhaps Dr. Paul was simply speaking in a manner meant to stir up his fan base.

    How many Executive Order's has Obama made.He just used another
    yesterday.Of course the Lamestream will never comment about Obama's
    sneaky use of Executive Orders.Like most notably Obama Very First
    Executive order within 24 hrs. of being sworn-in.
    Order # 13489 {Jan. 21,2009} basically banning release any documents
    regarding him.Sealing all and any records.
    That is the very height of sneaky corrupt.Unprecedented.
    Thoroughly Unamerican.Pure Dictatorial.Yet not a peep from the
    Lamestream,even today.No way to spin that very first Executive Order act.

    None

    Great point.

    I believe he is right around 100, which is a lot in dollars, but when compared to other presidents he seems to be a bit behind the curve.

    For reference, here is an index with links to every EO for the last 70 years or so.

    Obama has expanded the parameters of corruption so much more than others ever did.
    He doesn't even bother to hide it either. IMO he has utter contempt for the powers of Congress and the will of the people.

    That's the difference.

    I don't think The Obama is a "tyrant". I don't see marshal law happening. I do see a close election ahead. The Obama is using his political musle as POTUS to improve his next election chance. If he doesn't stay on top, the wolves in his own party that dream of being president will take him down.

    No argument there.thats well known to anybody who has done any serious research.Like i said before,from here on out,every president that gets into office is going to be more evil and corrupt than his predecessor unless of course by some miracle Ron Paul gets in of course.oh and thats not an opinion,thats a fact that George w Obama has contempt of the powers of congress and the will of the people.as i said before,that describes every president "with the exception of carter maybe" that has been in office since nov 22nd 1963 the last REAL president we had who served the people instead of being a willing puppet for the establishment.

    Have you seen THE OBAMA DECEPTION video by chance? you would understand all this if you have,I made a thread of that video that I plan to bring back,nobody has ever been able to debunk it.

    Acts that make him a Dictator. Surpassing the Supreme court, to decide what is and what is not Constitutional.

    Surpass Congress to basically give illegals Amnesty. by Executive Orders.

    He has chosen to assassinate people instead of allowing them to come to trial.

    He has made it clear that he will surpass congress to get his stuff done.

    Yes, PrezBO is a dictator. That's where the US presidency has been moving since Lincoln.

    The US founders knew their experiment in limited government would eventually fail. It's time to eliminate government altogether.

    We already basically are.

    It's actually quite accurate.

    Yup, just like they do here in America.

    Or get you put on his Hit List comrpised of American Citizens

    That's what I said 10 years ago about an executive branch Hit List. What makes you think Obama won't circumvent the First Amendment? Speaking out against the government will be considered "terrorism". He already disobeys most of the Constitution anyway, what's a few more amendments ignored going to do? Nobody will stop him.

    It doens't matter "how often" executive orders are used. The only thing that matters is whether they're Constitutional or not. Just about all of them are not.

    You're quite obviously naive.

    Hopelessly clueless. You don't think assassinating American Citizens without due process is a parameter that qualifies us for a dictatorship?

    Yeah, ignoring an entire branch of the government is completely democratic in principle...

    CIA, FBI, Haliburton, all the usual players.

    Kennedy wanted to exit Vietnam, Johnson was owned by Brown and Root (Haliburton). Haliburton winds up with 80% of the infrastructure contract with the US Navy, in Vietnam, after Kennedy is dead. Do the math.

    Yeah, everyone here is focusing on how Obama has been ignoring the Legislative Branch. While that is true, he is also ignoring the Judicial Branch's functions as well. Obama has made himself the lawmaker, judge, jury, and executioner. If that's not an elective dictatorship, then I don't know what is.

    He ignores both on whims, but his supporters don't care. That is scary.

    So if you follow the logic (???) of the Obama haters Reagan was an even bigger dictator than Obama. It's hilarious but totally predictable that not one of the right-wingers wetting their pants about Obama being a dictator hasn't acknowledged this fact.

    Hey Dr. Righteous man , how's the OWS thing going for ya ? [​IMG]where you got your tent pitched ?


    [​IMG] DoRight , is there ever a time that due process of the law could / should sanction the assassination of anyone ? I believe that there is / are circumstances and maniacial idiots all over the world , and sometimes a well made plan and some good shooting can solve a lot of problems ...where do ya think 'James Bond' 007' came from ???

    The bone of contention I have with you is that you seem to be blaming Obama for that , can't agree with ya on that , sorry ,,, but hey , enjoyed talking to ya ,,, [​IMG]

    Flounder will be back soon , and I look forward to hearing his opinions on this ... [​IMG]
