We saw Bush Inc. get out all the tools in our country's toolbox, even those that are illegal, questionable and downright dirty.
Some of these of course, don't fall under E.O. but under personal opinion....
By E.O.- I'm willing to see Obama dust off some of those tools and by E.O., declare that gays and lesbians are equal citizens in this country and that they should have the same opportunities to serve in the military, openly and without prejudice. Period. No waiting period, no dragging it on for years in Congress. This is a civil rights issue.
By E.O.- Rectify the injustices and law-breaking during Bush Inc. Bring those law-breakers to justice in our courts of law. We can't move forward in good faith until we examine and rectify the past.
By E.O- We have some of the finest laws and courts in the world, in our cities and states. They have rarely failed to protect those who are innocent and more often prosecute those who are guilty. New York should not bow to the public voice concerned less with justice, than traffic. These "terrorists" will get justice and in the right place.
By E.O- Expand Medicare and include everyone in that. Period.
By E.O.-Declare those corporations operating inside this country and hiding profits offshore, not paying any taxes, illegally operating.
By E.O.- Get a spine and quit throwing out dry bones with tiny pieces of meat on them to every disparate group in this country. It just makes you look like Gumby.

EO means the next guy can EO it back.
I prefer the plaster and lathe of the process to the vinyl spackle of an EO. Takes longer, but it lasts.

Kings we like are no better than kings we don't. Enough with the fetish for sovereignty. Let's grow up and actually embrace the end of monarchy, all these years hence.

4. Temporary fixes that the next Republican can "un-fix" are not the answer. nt |

They really are different.
