Playing At President

The Atlantic/National Journal reports that Obama has decided to exert some authority over the Executive Branch:

Obama Rolls Out a Jobs Plan That Doesn't Need Congress

By Fawn Johnson

President Obama is either fed up with Congress or he's testing his own administration's mettle. Or both.

On Wednesday, Obama took a now-familiar path in adopting a program--this time a jobs and infrastructure effort--that can happen entirely within his domain. Obama directed several federal agencies to identify "high-impact, job-creating infrastructure projects" that can be expedited now, without congressional approval.

One week before he will make a major address to Congress on jobs, Obama is making sure they know he plans to move forward without them.

Operating independently of Congress was somewhat less urgent back when Nancy and Harry ruled the roost.  Still, for Obama to wait thirty months before deciding to focus the Executive Branch on jobs, jobs jobs is an admisson of dereliction.

Ce fut un poste très agréable. Dans l’idée que je souhaite mettre en écrit, comme cette fois-ci ailleurs E prenant et des efforts réels pour faire un très bon article, mais ce que je peux dire que j’ai beaucoup tergiverser et certainement pas à obtenir une chose faite.

of sympathy for Obama today, feeling that the tragedy of electing a callow incompetent to the office of president was not entirely his fault, but the fault of large numbers of enabling ignorami. Then I remembered Obama's constant lying and vindictive attacks on President Bush, and the moment faded.
