We don't need no stinking badges!

Is a Classic Movie Line

But now we seem to have an Administration that lives by a modification of it

Congress?

We Don't Need No Stinking Congress.

Recently Congress decided it had no interest in some Legislation called the Dream Act.  The attempt to ride it through was made after the last Election, it got through the House but did not make the 60 Vote bar in the Senate.

 So

The Adminstration decided to implement it by itself.

Obama Administration to Review All Deportation Cases, Apply DREAM Act-Style Criteria

Which is a lot like the Fate of

Cap and Trade

But again a Congressionla rejection was no problem for an Administration that could just tell the EPA to do it anyway.

EPA Cap-and-trade Regulations Would Circumvent Congress

They ran into the same problem when the FCC decided to regulate the Internet.

A Federal Judge inconvieniently ruled that CONGRESS must pass Legislation authorizing a Federal Agency to regulate something,

Not a problem, This Adminstration just told the FCC to do it anyway.

FCC Moves to Regulate Internet--Even Though the Law Calls for Internet to be 'Unfettered by Federal or State Regulation'

Then of course there was Libya.

Wasn't it nice of President Obama to ask the permission of NATO and the UN, but wouldn't it have been nicer if he had bothered to discuss it with Congress?

I mean there are such picky things like the Constitution and the War Powers Act that should be considered.

Or not as is the case with the present Administration.

A Primer on the Libya/War Powers Resolution Compliance Debate

All these things can be clearly understood if we stop and think about the background of the President in office now,

In Dugan Romanos work on Intercultural Relatiohships the claim is made that everyone acts out of their own Cultural Matix.

President Obama's Cultural Matrix as far as Politics is concerned, derives from Cook County.

Some time ago a young man named Barry, a product of an exclusive Prep School in Hawaii, arrived at the People's Republic of Chicago and became

Barrak Husein Obama, the disciple of Bill Ayers and Saul Alynsky.

In that environment the Daley Machine has had full One Party control for generations.

Yes Conservatives and Republicans are Seen and Not---

Well maybe not even seen,  The Machine has been able to pretty much do as it wills,

Thus we have a Presidency that treats the United States like it was Cook County

Government by Executive Order Fiat.

Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't that one of the origninal complaints against George the Third??

 For suspending our own legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
