fucking nuts!! If they keep trying to go further to the right--like a competition--and they win in 2012...holy shit on a stick we're screwed!
Newt Gingrich plans executive order bonanza if he wins 2012Newt Gingrich says he could sign as many as 200 executive orders on his first day as president, accomplishing everything from abolishing a circuit court to further tightening restrictions on federal funding for abortions.
“If we have the right election in 2012 and we elect the right congress and the right president that from day one, we can have executive orders — maybe as many as 150 to 200 of them — on the first day,” Gingrich told religious conservatives at the American Family Association's pastors' policy briefing in Iowa Friday.
The former House Speaker said that after the inaugural address, there's a break before the traditional lunch — an opportunity for a newly-elected president to get right to work.
“Walk into a room, have all the documents already prepared, already on the Internet, already reviewed by the American people, already written by people who were in the Bush and Reagan White Houses, so they’re all technically correct,” he told the audience. “And just sign as fast as you can.”
Gingrich called for abolishing the Ninth Circuit Court, which he sees as part of an activist judiciary, abolishing all “czars” created by the Obama administration and ensuring no American money pays for abortion (the Constitution specifically gives Congress the power to "ordain and establish" lower courts).
“This is not hyperbole,” he said. *snip*
