Midknight Review -- new and revised: Obama: the GOP's best friend and here is why that is so.

Editor's notes: Obama thinks he is scoring points for the Dems by doing what he is doing, acting on his own as he continues to work against everything and anything the Democrat Party is trying to set up in this election season. Take it to the bank: as long as Obama is acting as a dictator (and he plans to act this way until Jan 19, 2017 - his last day in office), the Democrat Party cannot run against him or set-up its own agenda . . . . and we thought Bill Clinton was ego centered.

Obama is proving to be the worst disaster for the Democrat Party in history. In terms of power, his party as gone from the strongest in history with the 2008 election, to its weakest since 1928 (after the 2014 midterm GOP landslide). And, if he keeps acting as if he is serving the people rather than his imagined "legacy," he just might take "Marxist progressivism" back two or three decades, and that could be the case in spite of a GOP that has fumbled away the 2010 and 2014 midterm elections.

The latest bit of nonsense is his executive order to give union workers doing business with Central Planning, 7 days off per year with pay. Wow - another "something' he can talk about that does absolutely nothing for the larger working class. In making his announcement, he left off talking about the cost of this nonsense. Here is how the DOL justifies the cost . . . . . and the explanation could not be a higher pile of chunky-style barnyard:

The Labor Department said any costs would be offset by savings that contractors would see as a result of lower attrition rates and increased worker loyalty, but produced nothing to back that up.

As I have implied, he is doing nothing but getting in the way. And during this election cycle, I say, "More power to him." He gives the GOP more and more ammo while keeping the Democrat election machine completely off its mark.

Stars and Stripes:

Showing solidarity with workers on Labor Day, President Barack Obama will sign an executive order Monday requiring paid sick leave for employees of federal contractors, including 300,000 who currently receive none.

The White House wouldn’t specify the cost to federal contractors to implement the executive order, which Obama was to address at a major union rally and breakfast in Boston. The Labor Department said any costs would be offset by savings that contractors would see as a result of lower attrition rates and increased worker loyalty, but produced nothing to back that up.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
