Why Americans Dislike Obama — Scott Ott writing on PJMedia.Com explains why most of us are feeling very uncomfortable regarding President Obama. He notes that this discomfort occurs:
- When he makes recess appointments (to the National Labor Relations
Board and to the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau) while the
Senate is not in recess; - When he does through bureaucratic regulation what he cannot accomplish legally through persuasion of the people’s legislature;
- When he stands before the Congress, the nation, and the Supreme
Court, as he did during a State of the Union address, and publicly
rebukes the Court for a decision he didn’t like; - When he initiates overseas military adventures (i.e., Libya) without congressional approval;
- When he campaigns around the country saying “we can’t wait” for
Congress to act, and instructs his cabinet to do everything they can
without Congress, because he wants to spend more borrowed money on more
social experiments, despite the demonstrated failure of his previous
experiments. - When he erects “a Multitude of new Offices, and [sends] hither
Swarms of Officers to harass our People, and eat out their Substance.”
