Bllomberg calling for POTUS to sidestep democracy?

Bloomberg said Obama could use executive powers to enforce existing gun laws, as well as throw his weight behind legislation like Feinstein's.
"It's time for the president, I think, to stand up and lead and tell this country what we should do – not go to Congress and say, `What do you guys want to do?'" Bloomberg said."

So, does Bloomberg think the POTUS is his personal puppet? Scary talk in this article...

What an idiot. How do people like this get elected in the first place, much less keep the office? Shouldn't a politician at the very least be required to have a basic understanding of our *intended* system of government?

All I can say is thank the good Lord I don't live anywhere near where that butthole keeps getting re-elected.

I'm glad the douche understands the concept of a dictatorship. Now if he'd only realize that the US isn't one.

Don't politicians take an oath to uphold the laws of the land?

Mr. Ahole Bloomberg apparently had his fingers crossed while taking the oath of office.

Makes sense as neither of them actually believe in a democracy or freedom.

Bloomberg is a tyrant. Pure and simple.

He doesn't give two shits for the life of anyone ... adults, children, ANYONE but himself.

He also knows that at some point he's going to have to put his boot on the neck of the people and he doesn't want them to be able to shoot back at the army of armed thugs he commands (and certainly not at him personally). THAT is why he wants to disarm the people.

His hatred for liberty and the common man is so complete I doubt he'll ever see the light.
