So our peerless leader has decided that being just like everyone else is OK now.
W. did it 170 times, Slick Willy did it over 140 times; recess appointments. Recess appointments are a cowardly way to get appointees to certain positions in government through, without congressional approval. George W and Willy did it mostly with low importance positions, though. Chairman Oba-Mao has done it in a much more blatant (big surprise), and underhanded way, ignoring at least two huge elephants in the room.
First and foremost; doesn't appointing TWO UNION LAWYERS to the National Labor Relations Board sound alot like conflict of interest? Nothing like making absolutely sure unions get the upper hand in every aspect of negotiation, election, and organization. The problem here is that unions no longer serve a valid purpose. The one and only goal of forming and maintaining a union nowdays, is to get more for less; more money and benefits, for less work. Unfortunately, stupid union people don't get that if the companies they work for keep giving and giving and giving, there will soon be no company to work for... GET IT MORONS? Maybe if we still had child labor problems and sweat shops & slave labor were still running amok, we could use the unions; but they have become nothing more than greed machines.
Second, the Chairman made many promises about doing things differently. Change You Can Believe In, wasn't it? Yet, back-alley deals, old British Parliamentary tricks, and "Congress is away so I can play" are the only ways all of this socialism can get forced down our throats. Doesn't sound like ANYTHING I believe in. Mr. Oba-Mao can pretend that the Republicans are blocking his nominees out of spite, or grandstanding, or whatever; but the fact is that none of his nominees so far has been palatable to the American public... Sorta like his health care plan. So maybe these nominees are being blocked because they are bad choices... Sorta like his health care plan. Less partisan politics? Nope, he and Comrade Pelosi - even with a super majority - had to resort to thumbing their noses at the Repubs and some of their own to get Commie-Care through. The article I linked to above is about the fourth I've seen recently that has mentioned the Chairman "Scolding the GOP". Doesn't sound very nonpartisan, does it?
There are three houses of our government for a reason; so that no one of those can become too powerful. Yet somehow, the Chairman has UNILATERALLY passed health care reform we didn't want, put in place appointees we didn't want, passed a meaningless jobs bill (bet ya missed that one), and bailed out a bunch of companies we didn't want to bail out. Oh, don't let me forget taking over GM & Chrysler, and GIVING them to the union (UAW)... Illegally, by the way - as was the passage of the health care bill (10th Amendment, anyone?)
It's so funny that Oba-Mao got elected partly because many morons believed the "George W is trampling all over your rights" line that was sold by the Dems and media. Now, you are losing them at an alarming rate. Individuality is being systematically extinguished. The free market, and therefore innovation and entreprenurialism, are being wiped out with each stroke of the Chairman's 42 pens; of course, regardless of the Constitution, whether there are enough votes for it, or if anyone even wants it.
Look back through history people.Lenin, Castro, Tito, and the Ayatollahs all came to power promising "Power to the People", and "Take from the rich, to give to the poor". They all started out taking small bites out of their peoples' freedoms; "We have to take this from you for the good of all..." Sound familiar? They all ended up as Police-States, where only the elite and "Good Party Members" had anything resembling a decent life. Oh, and other than the Ayatollahs (who have oil), they have all ended up FLAT BROKE.
Look where Socialism has taken other countries, if you want to see where we are headed... It ain't pretty.
Peace, Love, and The Siberian Express
