Audacity. The Oval Office occupier now wants to consolidate numerous government agencies, claiming it will eliminate duplicity and reduce the work force. That, after engineering expansion of many and creating new ones for processing his myriad bailout and boondoggle programs, along with appointing dozens of czars to assist Cabinet posts and hiring a six-figure dog-sitter.
He said the nation needs a different kind of government, implying what we’ve had since dumping a king is the wrong type. It may be huge and not 100 percent perfect, but it is way better than what those so-called “socislamist” buddies whom he accommodated from day one by constantly sidestepping the Constitution and laws, have and live under.
What is next? Removing the American flag from the Oval Office to prevent it from clashing with Middle Eastern golden drapery and decor replicating a caliphate’s chamber?
Psychic Vickie Monroe predicts re-election. I pray to God (and don’t care who is offended by my use of his name) that she is wrong. Taxpayers don’t need any more of his $4 million Hawaiian vacations, gobbledygook statistical press releases, nor jetting to Disney World Mondays and sing-alongs in New York theater Thursdays.
I’m not a psychic, but I can see his plan clearly: usurping all government power to himself and forcing an ideology on this nation that the majority do not want, unless enough members of Congress stand tall and impeach him before November to uphold the Constitution, as the oath specifies.
