What I'm puzzling over is this. Under what authority did Presidents George W. Bush and Obama invest $50 billion of public money in a private company? Under what authority has Obama forced the firing of GM's CEO, mandated the terms of bankruptcy and announced principles for "the government's management of ownership interests in private firms?" Note that the president's principles apply to firms, plural. Apparently, my government is looking ahead to other investments on my behalf.The Congress is taking their marching orders from Mr. Obama. It will not let their oath to support the Constitution deter them from offering tributes to the king. Nor will Obama let his oath to the same Constitution damper his enthusiasm for disregarding its restrictions on presidential authority.
