For a guy who's not a fan of certain foreign leaders,
Barack Obama sure does place a tremendous amount of trust in the good will of
other nations. For legacy-building purposes, for example, the administration
trusts that Iran will police its own nuclear ambitions—or, as John Kerry might
put it, we've entered into a nonbinding agreement that is also not based on
trust. The same goes for the Chinese government, whom we will soon have to
trust so the president can get his legacy-building global-warming deal.
As it's been reported, Obama is working hard to nail down
what he hopes will be one of his "signature achievements": a
wide-ranging global agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. If all things
go according to plan, the agreement will be signed in December. And as with
most of the president's triumphs since 2010, this one will be nonbinding and
unenforceable, accomplished with unprecedented executive fiat. If he keeps this
up, Obama's single most notable achievement will be circumventing checks and balances
with more regularity than any president in history…...So now Obama just uses the Environmental Protective Agency as his personal legislative branch.......It's too bad that the GOP has done so little to stop him. We live in a political environment where progressive goals are treated as moral endeavors and Constitutional constraints are treated as procedural inconveniences that can be bypassed for the good of the nation—nay, the world.....To Read More……
