Not Snark:

Obama's Lawless Presidency Close To Totalitarianism

The chief executive who swore to faithfully execute the nation's laws picks those he'll ignore and makes up others through regulation and executive order. He sees no need for a Congress or Constitution.

[. . . ]Then came ObamaCare, which would prove to be a monumental assault on the First and 10th Amendments to the Constitution.

Obama needed the Congress for that particular brand of totalitarianism I think.

These people are certifiable. They are the Republican Party.

    fascist is a lot more accurate than Kenyan socialist...but not for the reasons IBD states....the merger of government and corporate power definition.

    And that whole "Kill List" ... (none / 0) (#5)

    thing.

    He certainly isn't a Socialist of any stripe.  Nor much of Democrat.  Big or small "d".  He's just another puppet doing the bidding of the band of criminal capitalists that call the shots in this country.

    And he is being well compensated for this.  He will get his re-election and a very lucrative retirement.

    Faust would be proud.

    does not include matters such as  "kill lists," quirky holdings such as the constitution requires due process but not judicial process, creative twists on collateral damage so as not to include military age males, or inventive definitions for war in that the Libya campaign did not involve hostilities.  No, these matters do not draw fire; totalitarianism is matters such as providing health care they do not like and offering contraceptives to those who want them.   Let's all just hold hands and walk through the looking glass together--curiouser and curiouser, madder than a hatter.

    double for the Dems.

    The Republicans still hang onto some of their philosophies.

    The Democratic Party has sold almost all of them to the highest. And sold 'em cheap.

    Republican philosophies and Dem sell-outs (5.00 / 2) (#11)
    by Lora on Tue Jun 19, 2012 at 02:34:41 PM EST
    The Repubs use their so-called philosophies in the service of only two things:  accumulation of wealth and accumulation of power, for themselves and for their buddies.

    To be fair, yeah the Dems have sold out, it's true.

    Endless war.

    Don't let the po' folks vote.

    Don't let the po' folks get health care.

    Second Amendment sacred, Eighth, not so much.

    Send jobs overseas.

    Let billionaires pay lower tax rates than working folks.

    And be Christian, except for the part of the Bible where Jesus says people who don't help the poor and sick will go to Hell.

    41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

     42 For I was an hungered, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:

     43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

     44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungered, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?

     45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

     46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

    Obama's abject presidency is not the issue. Crazies control much of the debate in the country and control substantial political power outside the US.

    We are not winning.

    Is he just a fascist, or is he a Kenyan fascist?

    Perspiring minds want to know.

    Or a Hawaiian Fascist? (none / 0) (#14)

    I haven't seen him offer anyone a nice Hawaiian punch, though.

    And if he's a fascist, where the rhetoric, the one big lie or the 10 small lies?

    He reminds me of Woodrow Wilson in oh so many ways, not Francisco Franco.

    Wilson was authoritarian as can be. Look at his treatment of IWW members, anarchists, socialists, even pacifists.

    I'm not holding Wilson up as a great and noble domestic president.

    The Investor's Daily, they're in no position to be accusing anyone else of being a totalitarian tool. what, The People's Daily is still taken? i guess Pravda would have been too obvious, huh?

    I know one law about Obama which tells that The Obama administration is marked by a relentless disregard and respect for the authority of Congress, the courts and the Constitution.
