Obama Makes Use of Signing Statements

I haven't read the article -- that he's used the sinful signing statement is enough to rub your faces in it; but, if it's about that promise Geitner made to some of the Congressman about ignoring provisions of the law it's a damn-sight better than -- well -- the President just deciding to ignore the law, eh?

some people must not have much to do during the day.

Like President Obama.

Hey, he also abandoned his "Earmark Reform" campaign pledge today, too.

Nice going President Teleprompter.

I'm still waiting on the conclusion of your Blagojevich/"Obama" scandal that you was so sure of Yonivore. Are you still waiting for updates on that or you gave up on that crying game?

Is it over yet? Besides, I think Obama got into office and proceeded to things up worse than anyone ever imagined.

Blago is kind of minor now, don't'cha think?

Like I said before, I like polls that actually show their questions and trends:

3/5/09 Fox News Opinion Poll

And of course, yoni never read anything written before on the subject over a year ago.

To wit:

Responding to a questionnaire late last year by the Boston Globe, Sens. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) and Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) made clear their view that Bush has gone too far in issuing signing statements -- but that there are cir stances in which such statements are necessary.

"The problem with this administration is that it has attached signing statements to legislation in an effort to change the meaning of the legislation, to avoid enforcing certain provisions of the legislation that the President does not like, and to raise implausible or dubious cons utional objections to the legislation," Obama answered. But, he added: "No one doubts that it is appropriate to use signing statements to protect a president's cons utional prerogatives."

Wow, even the approval rating of the congress is getting close to respectable.

Yes it is, but I expect that to drop. Democrat support at 66% and only 20% among republicans.

Why did you ignore the independent numbers?

Because you are ignorant.

As is being proven every day in Washington, Republicans are not needed. Maybe they should try to make themselves relevant again.

You do know that the big issue with Bush's signing statements were that he said, in essence, that would follow the parts of the law that he felt he had to, and ignore those he didn't?

Of course you don't! lol

No, he used them in the same context as has Obama; so long as the law doesn't intrude on Article II powers, it'll be enforced by the administration. Where they conflict, Congress can suck an egg.

I think the question is where"s this HOPE AND CHANGE you all been talking about.

No the question is "Do you idiots know what you're talking about?"

Yoni sure didn't.
