Kreole wants to live in a fascist state where the president is not merely the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces (a la the Constitution) but the Commander-in-Chief of the nation, the Leader (“Fuhrer” in German). He thinks Obama is lacking in leadership (“Fuhrung”). The Congress, according to the Constitution, and certainly in the minds of the founders, is the voice of the people, and the entire American revolution was fought to prevent anyone other than the elected representatives of the people from deciding how the people’s money is to be collected or spent. Remember “No Taxation without Representation”? Personally, I think the country would be better off today if Obama had been in charge since he took office, rather than the grandstanding ideologues we have chosen to represent us in congress. But make no mistake, the people of America are in charge, liberals and conservatives alike. And unless we grow up, stop listening to demagogues, and realize we are always going to have a country and a government that is a mixture of liberal and conservative, and that the other side is not the enemy, but just as much part of what makes us US as we are, we are going to continue to elect people who will keep America in decline.
