When Clintons Attack

I have to take back what I said about Bill Clinton the other day. When he referred to the Obama presidency as an "awful legacy", he wasn't senile. He was just channeling the Clinton campaign's meme which separates them from the Obama administration.

I say this because now we have Chelsea Clinton attacking Obamacare. From the Weekly Standard:

A video shows Chelsea Clinton blasting the "crushing costs" of President Barack Obama's signature legislation. In the video, Chelsea Clinton tells a crowd that her mother, Hillary Clinton, is open to using executive action to reduce "crushing costs" of Obamacare. 
"...cap on out of pocket expenses. This was part of my mom's original plan back in '93 and '94, as well as premium costs. We can either do that directly or through tax credits. And, kind of figuring out whether she could do that through executive action, or she would need to do that through tax credits working with Congress. She thinks either of those will help solve the challenge of kind of the crushing costs that still exist for too many people, who even are part of the Affordable Care Act and buying insurance..."
Note how Chelsea says her mother would use executive action to fix this problem? Haven't we had enough "rule by executive fiat"? I find it worrisome that Obama has made this acceptable to the point nobody flinches when it is suggested.

Folks, while you were sleeping, the politicians in Washington moved us ever closer to a dictatorship. But what they don't know is the joke is on them. As soon as the dictator is in office, all of his/her opposition will be in front of firing squads. Be careful what you wish for...
