If you were President of the USA what would you do?

Damnit get serious ... by executive order I would outlaw spandex to the obese. Of course that might damage the People of Walmart website but it needs to be done.

I'm trying to keep separate what is an executive responsibility and power from what is a legislative power. That's why I didn't touch tax policy in general, that is a congressional responsibility but I can create a circumstance to spare the active military from paying by expanding the war on terror war zone to world wide which Fort Hood should have taught us that it is.

I would push for Congress to inact rules that prevent any former staff, elected official, or appointed official to act as a lobbyist for a period of ten years after their employment ends. That is something they have to do though. As president I can act for the White House.

National security, executive regulation, and treaties are the theater of the White House.

I just got one question.
Mexico as the 53 state after Cuba; what happened to the 51st state?

Puerto Rico, Senor2Doggie!

Quit. It's a lousy job. Especially if you don't have a filabuster proof majority in the Senate. Why waste four years of your life?

[JD Barleycorn]

Because you might make a good difference.

If I was President...I think I would focus on encouraging business growth here in America, all businesses, big or small. Making incentives for them to expand and hire more people. That way these business can hire more people and the people can have more jobs. But that is just my humble suggestion, I doubt anyone would vote for me anyway : (

I'd legalize raw milk and Gibson guitars. I play a 35 year old Gibson "Ripper" bass. Beautiful instrument, but if anyone asks, it's made out of plastic.

Fat fucking chance in today's environment. You'd have a better shot at akinga difference standing on a street corner with a sign that says, "The World is Going to End". Nothing short of a catestrophically economic dislocation will break the polarization in DC. I'd rather be dog catcher than President.

[CuteOldGuy]

I'd rather you were dog catcher, too. We agree on something else, TTH!

Gibson makes a fantastic axe.
I have a "lawsuit" Gibson (Alvarez) dove
Edition acoustic. Also play mostly fender.
Love my telecaster. The strat is a gimmie.
But my fav "git fiddle" is probably my Dominguez Javier
Classical. They don't make em like that anymore.
I'm fact... Diminguez Javier doesn't make anything anymore.

I feel ya about the restrictions on new guitars use on
Exotics.. But I feel it's a small price to pay to protect some trees.
Maybe now I'll have to decide if an ovation is in line to be next on the wall
Or maybe a guild.

Keep slapping those thumbs. I loooove a walking bass line.

[CuteOldGuy]

Yeah. Right. It's all about the trees. Sure.

You realize no charges have been filed yet, don't you? I think it's just harassment of a political opponent.

I guess if you're not going to arrest illegals and drug lords, you have to send law enforcement out on someone. Why not guitar makers and farmers?

Many voted for Dick Cheney twice, I'm sure TheAntichrist would have no problem getting their votes!

Exactly...our form of government seems outdated IMHO.

[CuteOldGuy]

Something along the line of Operation Northwoods, perhaps?
