The Ultimate Answer to Kings presents us with a memory flogger, reminding us that while The President certainly has participated and believes in eliminating limiting our rights, he wasn’t the first to do so. The Republicans and their President also eagerly participated!
an excerpt:
Really? Name one original thing – other than OCare, which I concede – that Obama has done to take your freedom away.
No, I said original.
NDAA? Tell it to Jose Padillo.
Signing statements? He’s got a long way to go to beat Bush’s record there.
Executive orders? C’mon.
“Free Speech Zones?” Again, Bush.
Didn’t close Gitmo? Who opened it?
Drone wars? Bush.
“Economic Stimulus?” TARP.
Eric Holder? John Ashcroft.
Look at these shitheads. Obama, Romney, Santorum, Gingrich, whoever. Is there a single one of them – Okay, Ron Paul did surprise me, I admit it, but he sure won’t be the nominee – that you’d allow to watch your dogs while you’re on vacation?
And one of them is about to be declared the “leader of the free world.” Sheesh.
He’s right, of course. The only thing Obeyme has added is that he’s doing it harder & faster, and without the usual lip service about pretending to care. His only original contribution was to take off the mask and show the world the unabashed face of a Progressive/fascist (but I repeat myself).
Posted by Rev. Paul | March 30, 2012, 11:36 amI do find it disconcerting that when GWB did anything, he was called a fascist and worse. Burned in effigy. When the current President does something onerous, or continues GWB policies under his banner, mostly, there are crickets. (Except for some far-Left folks and libertarians).
And as Joel said, this new crowd of folks have no credentials about lessening government power.
SIGH
