(Muslim Brotherhood) Egypt President (Mohamed) Morsi Grants Himself...
An exhaustive Sunday morning Web search located as yet no response from the Barack Obama Administration to this troubling Morsi Fiat Fest. Why the hesitancy? Perhaps it’s Pot-Meet-Kettle Syndrome. Or lawyer-shark professional courtesy.
President Morsi has been busy.
Egypt’s president on Thursday issued constitutional amendments that placed him above judicial oversight….
Morsi also decreed immunity for the Islamist-dominated panel drafting a new constitution from any possible court decisions to dissolve it, a threat that had been hanging over the controversial assembly….
Sound familiar?
Obama Executive Privilege Claim ‘Like Setting Off A Nuclear Bomb’
President Barack Obama…blocked a House Republican subpoena of Justice Department deliberations over a botched gun trafficking investigation and set up a potentially explosive political confrontation just as the presidential election heats up.
House Finds Atty. Gen. Eric Holder in Contempt of Congress
The votes approved in the Republican-controlled House covered two contempt of Congress citations — one as a criminal matter referring the issue to the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington for prosecution, the other authorizing the House to hire a special attorney to bring a civil lawsuit.
Ramifications? Nah.
Eric Holder To Stay In Obama Administration Beyond First Term
The parallels between Presidents Morsi and Obama grow.
With two branches of power (Executive and Legislative) in his hands, Morsi has had repeated frictions with the third, the Judiciary, over recent months.
And our Pharaoh Obama?
Network Neutrality never passed Congress – the President just imposed it, in December 2010. Ditto the Administration’s power grab of wireless cellular phone networks.
The Administration is being sued on both of these. Having – like Morsi – usurped Legislative Branch powers, it is left to the Judiciary to restore legal order.
Tech lessons not learned, President Obama presses ever further forward:
Obama Signs Order Outlining Emergency Internet (and Communications)...
A new executive order addresses how the country deals with the Internet during natural disasters and security emergencies, but it also puts a lot of power in the government’s hands.
How’s Barack the First doing nearly everywhere else? Just as terrible.
President Obama Issues Major ‘Green Energy’ Executive Order
DREAM Act Stalled, Obama Halts Deportations for Young Illegal Immig...
Obama Signs Pro-Union Executive Orders
Obama Executive Order Expands Homeland Security Reach into Local La...
And on, and on, and on…. This is a fairly comprehensive, ongoing power grab effort by our Pharaoh Obama. We would say “How very Morsi of him” – but it was our President who set the precedent for Egypt’s new dictator.
“Morsi today usurped all state powers & appointed himself Egypt’s new pharaoh,” pro-reform leader Mohamed ElBaradei wrote on his Twitter account….
The moves…come as Morsi is riding high on lavish praise from President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton for mediating an end to eight days of fighting between Israel and Gaza’s Hamas rulers….
Again, President Obama has not been nearly so vocal about Morsi’s all-encompassing power grabs.
We can clearly understand why.

Comment by Cynthia Catsman on November 28, 2012 at 7:16pm Thanks, Kate. That was something in the article that Putin looked like Reagan compared to Obama! Would guess that the libs don't give a hoot what Pravda has to say. In a different time, Benghazi would have ruined Obama and his regime. Not now. But I do predict that history will record (if it's not revisionist) that America died in 2012. The NDAA detention provisions, the hidden EOs that strip liberty, and most importantly, Benghazi will illustrate what we were versus what we became.

Comment by Rich Knoch on November 28, 2012 at 10:43am Morsi, as they say simply, cut to the chase, upstaging obama and his Executive Order Process of omnipotence.
In one fell swoop, Morsi declared himself the Omnipotent Pharaoh. . . . . was this also a challenge to the anointed one to declare himself above our Constitution?
Comment by Donna on November 28, 2012 at 10:07am obamas father was a prince,i've said it since 2007! I don't KNOW which one,but that was said in 1961!
Comment by Lee Hoecherl on November 28, 2012 at 7:06am I have said before that the bigest problem we now have is the Muslem's. There are so many of them that if they are allowed to come to America and become citizen's, by thier number'e they will controll every election. we need to shout this from the roof tops and make America understand that Obama is leading us into this. He must not be able to get a third term, if he does, America is finished.
Comment by Debrajoe Smith-Beatty on November 28, 2012 at 4:43am O wants to do exactly as Morsi has done.

Comment by Judy Lyford on November 28, 2012 at 12:08am Every time I see or hear the name, Morsi, I think of Obama. They must be brothers.
Comment by Cynthia Catsman on November 27, 2012 at 11:47pm Wouldn't be surprised to see Christianity banned within the next four years. See the Pravda article.
