In reaction to the New York Times story on Obama further expanding the Bush-Cheney power grabs, two pro-war, any war sites have chimed in FAVORING Obama’s actions.
American Power admits, “Personally, I have no problems with the the model of strong executive power (unitary executive theory).”
Charles Johnson at Little Green Footballs praises Obama in a post entitled, Obama Using Executive Power to Get Around Obstructionist GOP.
Despite their childish bickering, both big-government, pro-interventionist pundits are still singing the same tune.

Any gangster will tell you that it is a hell-of-a-lot easier to bribe/influence one man, vs 300 in Congress. I guess it’s relative to how “Out of control” the executive orders are? JFK found out that imposing them on the Federal Reserve and requiring Israel to declare their Nukes to the UN will get you assasinated!………..But, here is the sick history:
