#59 Blackadder – As to the resemblances to the Bush presidency, the most obvious of which are ridiculous use of signing statements, assigning justices while congress is recessed to avoid their (constitutional) input, millions of deleted emails, use of RNC emails for official White House business, firing lawyers who didn’t follow party lines, falsifying budget requests by not including war costs and kicking off emergency supplementals as soon as the budgets were approved, wire-tapping U.S. citizens without warrants, selling out the Brits during an intelligence operation prior to the ’06 election to curry votes here at home, and a general complete lack of transparency which will undoubtedly reveal more “dictator-like” behavior over time.
And I’m sure if challenged, other folks can add their own list without too much trouble.
