In response to Government over-reach, Obama promises more government over-reach.

Eli,

This is from Politico.

>Aware that few substantive bills can receive the bipartisan support needed to pass Congress in the current political climate, White House officials are also turning their attention to narrower policies Mr. Obama can carry out on his own

So the response to the IRS trying to restrict speech and influence elections, the DoJ's attempt to muzzle the press and the attack on a CIA installation in Benghazi, is to try to do more things outside of oversight and participation by the co-equal branch of government.

Curious.
