Barack Obama, elected on promises of bringing government together, stopping the bickering and helping each side of the aisle work with the other to bring harmony, apparently can’t work with his own cabinet. According to his friends at the Washington Post…
“News this week of the first departure of a Cabinet secretary from the Obama administration comes amid a wide-ranging effort under the new chief of staff, William M. Daley, to repair badly frayed relations between the White House and the Cabinet.”
In another quote, Daley said he’s heard Cabinet members’ complaints. “You hear the same thing: ‘I don’t think we’re used well. I don’t think we’re consulted enough,’ ”
So it keeps stacking up. He’s a go-it-alone president, do his own thing dictator president. One who decides without the help of the Supreme Court what’s constitutional and what’s not, as in deciding not to enforce the defense of marriage act. And we’re talking about a law passed by Congress and signed by Democrat Bill Clinton.
The would-be-dictator president rolls on until the steam roller hits a wall, then backs off – briefly – until he figures a way around it.
No wonder Patriots have always realized that government is the problem. And not only the problem, but in many ways the worst enemy the American people have.
As Thomas Paine put it, “Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil” –The Rights of Man (1792)
