The Everlasting Phelps is a new blog to me and had a bit of a commentary on Obama’s Executive Orders – all 23 of them. I have some concerns about some of the Exec Orders (as in, is there any authorization in real law to substantiate the claim to do this, or is this simply yet another example of “Obama being Obama” (or more bluntly put “The Rule of Man via Monarchical Decrees / The Law of the Strong Man”)). Anyways, Everlasting Phelps has a quick reposte that matched my first reactions as well:
- Tell the government to follow the law.
- Tell the regulators to stop the stupid and useless regulations.
- Pay the states back for the unfunded mandates that the Feds keeps making.
- Tell the Attorney General to do his job.
- Start another unfunded mandate. (See #3.)
- Tell FDLs how to do something no one is ever going to bother to do.
- Do the same thing the NRA already does, only half as well at twice the cost.
- Do what Underwriters Laboratories already does, only half as well at twice the cost.
- Tell the Feds to do their jobs.
- Tell the DOJ to do its job.
- Tell myself to do my job.
- Spend more money.
- Tell everyone to do their goddamned jobs.
- Tell the doctors to figure out why it isn’t the feds’ fault that they aren’t doing their jobs.
- Figure out a way to push “smart guns” that don’t exist and wouldn’t be useful as guns if they did.
- Tell everyone that Obamacare doesn’t actually mean what it says.
- Tell everyone that, seriously, Obamacare doesn’t actually mean that. We had to pass it to find out what was in it, after all.
- Tell everyone that I’ve been a partisan hack for the last month every time I said the NRA was crazy to want to post more cops in schools.
- Do the same thing that every police agency in the country has already done, only half as well and at ten times the cost.
- Tell doctors what they already know.
- Tell people what the parts of Obamacare that don’t say anything say.
- Tell HHS to do their job.
- Hand the rest of the job of telling everyone to do their jobs off to someone else so it is no longer my job.
Here’s the list but with the Exec. Orders with them:
