I think you're going off the deep end cross.
Show me where I asserted that Obama voters are for holocaust?
The 3 branches of governments checks and balanced are all still intact last time I checked, in fact, they are working too well.
Hitler removed opposition(by removing other parties and destroying the Constitution). He would not have been able to do the damage he did with an 8 year term limit and fair elections every 4 years.
I stand by my assertion that Syria(et al) is proof that bullying the population is a bad move any time in the near future..
"If the government decides what you do is important to national security, or if your company supplies something that's essential to the government for national security (or pretty much any other reason they want) they can lawfully compel you to provide those goods or services at their discretion." -As I said, making the law is one thing, using it is another. Police can commandeer my vehicle, but they aren't stupid enough to do it for a donut run.
My point was simple, and it seems you're trying to create an argument. These executive orders are not a good thing, but no president(including Obama) will use them, because it would be political suicide.
Where was all this vitriol from you when someone was actually using executive power to kill thousands of Americans and 100's of thousands of Iraqis wrongfully???

What rights do we even have at this point. He can take away your business, farms, energy/natural resources, jail you for any reason for any length of time, enact the draft at his disgression, and force you to pay for a government run medical program. There is not much else up for grabs at this point. The Patriot Act was the start to this whole shitstorm. So, I blame Bush in that regard.
Like I said, our right to elect someone who will use their power accordingly is still intact, and that trumps anything that some yahoo who might consider using power irrationally can do. An Americans right to vote is a sleeping giant, and politicians know this. No one is dumb enough to bite the hand that feeds them. As long as my right to vote and term limits remain in effect, I will have no fear.
