Will obama “rule by divine right of kings” as confirmed by David Axelrod, if the Republicans take the majority in congress on 2 Nov '10?
All indications are, if Obama cannot get his legislative agenda enacted by Congress, he will impose it by decree. The evidences, this will happen, comes from L.A. Times in a piece by Peter Nicholas and Christi Parsons under the hum-drum headline, "Obama Reshapes Administration for a Fresh Strategy." The story makes clear the "fresh strategy" borders on government by executive fiat. It begins..........
"As President Obama remakes his senior staff, he is also shaping a new approach for the second half of his term: to advance his agenda through executive actions he can take on his own, rather than pushing plans through an increasingly hostile Congress."
Will obama execute his plans using his own branch of government....by the means of executive orders, more use of his bullying tactics, more deployment of his ample regulatory powers and the wide-ranging rule making authority of his Cabinet members?
Should it not concern all of us that the aims of obama is to use executive powers to circumvent Congress, and the Constitution?
January 2011, will start providing us the answers to these question. My answer is that obama will continue to “rule by divine right of kings”!
