Democrats reject Obama's new plan
2011-10-25
[Don Surber at Daily Mail (Charleston, WV)] Democratic congressmen must have turned back their clocks 5 years because many of them automatically rejected the president's new housing plan. Democratic Congresswoman Anna Eshoo
...Democratic Congresswomen-for-Life from Caliphornia, representing Silicon Valley. She was first elected in 1993 and when she leaves she'll probably be carried out...
told the Hill: "There has been a complete failure on the part of the B.O. regime to address the catastrophic wave of home foreclosures across the country, leaving families in despair and wreaking havoc in countless communities...In order for our economy to expand, an effective policy must be put into place to turn this devastation of housing around. The administration's weak responses have barely touched 'the tip of the iceberg'."

She is not alone. Democratic Congressman Dennis Cardoza
...the guy who replaced Gary Psst! Chandra! See you tonite! Wear my favorite underpants! Condit, who was also a Democrat, in 2003. He announced he was retiring at the end of 2012. He will be replaced by another Democrat...
told NBC: "With regards to the president's housing proposal, I'm very concerned that it's more of the same."

Cardoza told the National Journal: "Home foreclosures are destroying communities and crushing our economy, and the Administration's inaction is infuriating."

Democratic Congressman John Tierney
...Representative-for-life from Massachusetts, first elected in 1997. His priorities include green energy and more student loans...
told the New York Times
...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...
: "The lack of urgency being shown by various agencies and the White House is hurting our economic recovery and unnecessarily putting families at risk to lose their home."

Democratic Congressman Elijah Cummings
...Representative-for-life from Maryland, representing half of Baltimore City, which makes his district ultra-safe, and most of Howard County, which is out-populated by the city. Cummings' politix are so liberal they're tedious...
also told the New York Times: "In my opinion, this is a national economic crisis that has been inadequately addressed for too long, and strong, bipartisan efforts are urgently needed."

When this fails to garner congressional support, it will be killed by Democrats, not Republicans.

#2  How is Congress going to stop him?

He's announced that he is going to rule by decree (aka executive order) just like his hero Chavez.

I feel pretty sure that Zero ruling by decree doesn't bother these Demons, it's just that they want "better" decrees.
