I have to agree with Tboy.
The 2 term limit came as a result of FDR wanting to be Pres for life - literally.

george w bush was a dictator, he set up concentration camps in Cuba and Afghanistan and ordered his CIA to round up Muslims and detain them with no trial. He also illegally invaded Iraq much like Hitler invaded Poland and passed multiple executive orders that restricted our privacy as American citizens.
see how easy that is?

As long as you're okay with calling equal the mass slaughtering of innocent Jews to the detaining of likely terrorist and terrorist obstructionalists at Club GITMO...carry on.

was created by republicans) and he led this country through world war II (which republican businessman like Prescott Bush had business dealings with the Nazi's). He also created the modern middle class with the new deal. A lot of you middle classers here in South Carolina would still be dirt poor farmers if it wasn't for the New Deal.

The problem isn't the executive orders exactly.

Problem is they are usually used for regulatory issues. This particular administration uses them to skirt the Constitution and Congress because they couldn't do what they want otherwise.
