I did not vote for President B.H. Obama (big shocker, eh?), but I realize that he is a very smart and likable man, so I have tried very hard to be open-minded and give the man a chance. The problem is, he won't let me,
As if the spend-ulous plan that he, Pelosi & Reid are going to saddle our children with paying for wasn't bad enough (and trust me, it is bad enough), at least they are attempting to wreck what's left of the economy within the rules of the Constitution. Now apparently, their not even going to let that paltry document slow them down.
Today, the Obama administration quietly moved the census bureau from the Commerce Department to the White House, placing the once-a-decade enumeration of We The People directly under his political operatives.
"So what?" you may ask. The census is once of the most important and far reaching functions of government. No mere counting of heads, the census decides how many representatives each states get in the House of Representatives, and how funding and entitlements are apportioned.
This is no mere political maneuver, this is a power grab. As the Executive Branch's control over the economic sector grows daily, now the White House seeks to corner the political market as well. Where are all of those who decried President Bush's "abuses of power". Not even the evil Bush II had the unmitigated gall to take over the census. We are moving closer to a one-party system, with no room for dissent or even debate.

Now, here's an example of chutzpah: The Republicans didn't get their act together enough to challenge Obama for not being constitutionally qualified to be President as an Article 2 "natural born citizen" so Obama's White House steals the census from the Commerce Department against the specific instructions of the constitution itself -- "actual enumeration" under Article 1.
Well put, great point. I think after it became obvious that the voters didn't care about Rev. Wright or Bill Ayers, the Repubs didn't have the stones to go after Obama on the birth certificate issue. Plus, John McCain was born in the Panama Canal Zone, and I can just see the Dems using that to return fire.
The only thing less surprising to me than Obama having a surplus of chutzpah (my new favorite word) is the Repubs of the last few years not having their act together. ;-)
