Has Obama made any Bush style signing statements yet?

[uscitizen]

Just curious, I had not read anything on this from the liberal media yet.

 

[evince]

I think he has already stated he would not use them like Bush did?

 

[uscitizen]

I hope this is true, but it would be justice to do it to some republican backed parts of bills he signs.

My face would be awash with tears of joy.
Payback is a bitch.

 

[SmarterthanYou]

he's had what, two bills come across his desk? and we think this is a big deal how?

 

[evince]

I think you misunderstand the thread dude?

 

[uscitizen]

Obviously the thtread is a bit too deep for some members Desh.

 

[SmarterthanYou]

well, yes. some of us don't swim in 3 feet of shit to look for stuff to talk about.

 

[FUCK THE POLICE]

During the campaign,

McCain said he wouldn't use them,

Obama said he would use them "sparingly".

signing statements are fine if you dont try to insist they are law.

Correct, there is the rub. Sort of a constitutional roadblock.


It always amazed me how proclaimed Libertarians could have ever supported Bush. His history of disregard for the law and rules is long.

It would be funny if he zinged the repubs with one though. Knowing it is just a statement by the president and has nothing to do with the execution of the law.

It would be entertaining to hear the Dixies of the world try to explain "But this is different".

 

[SmarterthanYou]

which libertarians supported Bush?
