"Good Time" Charlie Rangel should go back in time to circa 1776 to see what America thinks about kings issuing "executive orders" for everything. Is this the type of moron we want leading our republic? Actually, he exemplifies the liberal ideal of obtrusive, strict government as opposed to the conservative ideals of freedom, liberty and democracy. Another government around 80 years ago wanted their leader to issue Executive Orders for everything, too. Do you remember how that turned out? Rangel Wants Presidential Executive Orders for ‘Everything’ Congressman Charlie Rangel has a solution for bypassing gridlock in Washington D.C.: executive orders for “everything.” In an interview last night with NY1, the congressman praised Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s decision to push through the so-called “nuclear option” to end filibusters on most presidential nominees. But he lamented the fact the work-around could not be used for legislation, suggesting the president turn to the executive orders–like the kind used to end the deportation many people who’d entered the country illegally as children. “You know, the DREAM Act for the kids that came over here and didn’t know their home town, the president did that by executive order. What I did is I’ve taken out the language that he used and I’m gonna see why we can’t use executive orders for everything. What’s he gonna do? Make the Republicans angry? They’re gonna get annoyed? They’re not gonna cooperate?” http://politicker.com/2013/11/rangel-wants-presidential-executive-orders-for-everything/
He's an embarrassment to the Democratic party...but doesn't care as long as he can stay attached to the Government teet.
