Dustin.So now I'll...still call it Denali?
skiforce1Right win nut jobs are losing their minds yet again.
Kooky_LukeyI don't think the right "win" nut jobs are losing their minds about the name being restored. I think most normal people have no problem with the name being changed and even if they do it literally has no effect on their lives. So they should not care.
But I think people are just upset that Obama yet again has used his executive action to do something he wanted. I hate all the "Obama rabble rabble rabble" stuff, but I think it is getting a little ridiculous with his executive action stuff. Congress is there for a reason and you can't say he hasn't over stepped his bounds at least a little bit.

S.J.WYou do realise Obama has had fewer executive orders than any other president over the last 100 years?
JAHpowWell that is completely false. He does have fewer than most but not the least. He currently has 70 fewer executive orders than G.W. Bush. (But only three behind Bush's yearly average)

S.J.W"well that is completetly false. He does have fewer than most but not the least" Yes, over the past 100 years Obama has the least.
JAHpowYou went from saying Obama has had fewer executive orders than any other president in the last 100 years
to
fewer per year
Get your statements straight. Your first post, which I was responding to, is still completely false.
Stop changing your arguments to try to reverse what you've said.
Turd.Fergusondon't worry, bush did the same shit. Obama does it because he knows if he sends it to congress (right wing controlled), they'll stonewall it for no fucking reason, other than to stonewall it. and if he really overstepped his boundaries, the legislative can overturn his executive action. they just chose not to.
S.J.WDamn, I never knew the number of executive orders you made per year was different than the total number of executive orders you made during your time in office...
.Hugo.Why the hell did he name it after gmc's luxury models?

Kooky_LukeyWhen did I ever say Bush did this or Bush did that or say I was a supporter of Bush? Obama also still has a year and a half left to catch up to W Bush too and is only 50 some off. Also, thanks for the lesson School House Rock.
You still said than any other President in the last 100 years which just isn't true.
theBearJewTo be fair, in this situation specifically, I was under the impression that the Ohio congressmen constantly filibustered this issue over and over for the last 25 years or so, thus preventing congress from doing anything on it. So Obama was like, "No worries America, fuck Ohio, I got this"
I don't care as much about this, I mean McKinley never even went to Alaska. He seems like he had nothing to do with this other than it being named after him as a PR stunt when he was running for election, so why not change it back to its original name.
HOWEVER, by that logic, all the MLK Blvds should be renamed.
