Obama's executive reach

Any Obama voter hoping he would denounce Bush's use and abuse of signing statements to dictate which pieces of which legislation he intended to abide, better start regretting their ballots. This article details Obama's continuation of Bush policy to disregard anything he wants to in federal legislation.

Is this what we want? I know liberals scoffed at Bush's signing statements and called them excessive uses of executive power consistent with Bush's desire to run things the way he wanted to run things, no questions asked, no checks and balances accepted. But will they, too, denounce Obama's executive abuses?

Doubt it.
