Sadly, too true! The US has not had a quality leader in the WH since....?

Obama better get his ass in gear on this, or he'll be remember as the anti-1st and 2nd Amendment president. Frankly I'm tired of the man's arrogance. He seems to really believe that messiah crap. "I won the election, do as I say", gun control, Obamacare, increased taxes.......this guy is becoming a jerk who thinks we work for him. He appears to think his social justice agenda is more important than the country. So if you disagree, he'll try to shut you up. The MSM should pummel his ass, but they won't.
Mornin HD.....I would have to go with Eisenhower.
Your Numbers do not add up!Sure, but there are millions of people in the executive branch. I guarantee you every single day of every single administration there are unlawful things happening. You can't really hold a POTUS responsible for every instance. You have to draw a line somewhere. Though I am comfortable holding a President responsible for the actions of his Cabinet officials. But LEGALLY it is tough unless you can prove direct knowledge.
Exactly. The simple facts of the case are that a handful of AP reporters learned of a classified operation "in the week prior" to publishing a story, and in response the DOJ subpoenas two months of phone records for 100+ reporters. In some cases their home phones. This is not just about getting to the bottom of the leak, it's about trying to send the AP a message.This action has effectively chilled those who would contact reporters with inside information...secret or otherwise.

Treasury Bulletin numbers show the Executive Branch costs $405 million per year.
Assuming anyone working in the Executive Branch makes at least $80 K per year,
They have to have less than 5,062 people.
Ok. it could be viewed that way, but I think by the time you get more than three levels down from theThe Executive Branch includes all the Departments represented on the President's Cabinet. That includes DoD.
