    Hmm...really?

    http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/executiveorders.asp

    Bush- 291
    Obama- 147

    Bush signed almost twice the amount of executive orders. Like I said, you did nothing then, I expect you to do nothing now. Or is it just that you liked Bush's executive orders?

    And if you really want to get into who a tyrant was- look at Reagan's numbers.

    The thing that concerns me is in true Obama fashion it would be used to set off one of his false flags so he could say. "Told you so. Look how much you need us" How many would die for this narcissistic tantrum.

    :nana:Yep and Bush worked with Congress...not try to overtake it like Ubama. The number of EO is not the matter...its what they are for that is.

    Wow- talk about delusional. Executive orders pretty much means you bypassed congress. You might wanna take a look at some of what Bush did. But you won't, because then you'd have to actually put forth some effort. "Effort" is clearly a concept foreign to you.

    No it doesnt. Frequently they are an exercise of executive authority, specifically granted to the President by Congress. Problem with many of Obamas executive orders is that they directly contradict the laws enacted by Congress.

    Here we go again... The President is gonna shut down the government. Dude it didn't work last time.

    Not to worry, the Dec vote to fund the gov is a month away. The President can wait till after that vote.

    I already answered you. In case you hadn't heard Obama and the democrats just had their asses handed to them AGAIN. All Obama will do by doing his EO Amnesty is make sure Hillary or any Democrat isn't President in 2016.

    It's the reason the Democrats just got their asses handed to them AGAIN!

    OF COURSE, WHAT WAS I THINKING?!

    Everyone knows that everything that is wrong and bad is completely Obama's fault, and everything that is good and right is because of republicans.

    wow.

    The Plan:

    Create massive uncertainty with threats and actual government shutdowns to knock down consumer confidence, which is crucial to robust economic growth:

    [​IMG]

    Eliminate hundreds of thousands of jobs and enforce austerity to keep wages, spending and demand down:

    Obama
    Federal Spending increase, 2009-2014: -0.53%
    Total government employment, 2009-2014: -540,000

    Reagan
    Federal Spending increase, 1981-1986: +46.0%.
    Total government employment, 1981-1986: +879,000

    Bush
    Federal Spending increase, 2001-2006: +42.5%
    Total government employment, 2001-2006: +840,000

    source data
    Expenditures: http://cbo.gov/sites/default/files/cbofiles/attachments/45249-2014-04-HistoricalBudgetData.xlsx
    Employment: http://www.bls.gov/webapps/legacy/cesbtab1.htm

    And then blaaaaaame Obaaaama for the struggling economy and count of the sheeple being too stupid to know what's going on.

    [​IMG]

    The Republican plan. And it's worked like a charm, which is why Republicans picked up seats in an off year election.[/QUOTE]
