In reply to the discussion: President Obama’s Creepy Executive Order: "Putting the economy on a permanent war footing" [View all]bvar22
(39,909 posts)My big concern is that it does NOT Walk us back from The Edge.
It reaffirms and endorses The New Normal established during the Bush Administration's bogus War on Terror.
Was I wrong to expect a Democratic Administration to move us back to The Left
after the precipitous LURCH to The Authoritarian Right of the previous administration?
I clearly remember voting for "CHANGE".,
not the Status Quo.
I am especially concerned that this recent spate of clarifications appear to have been motivated by the success of the OWS protests, and the potential for even larger episodes of Civil Unrest this Summer.
It really looks like they are tying up the loose ends.
You will know them by their WORKS,
not by their excuses.
