Casper Star Tribune: Obama says he will review all of Bush's executive orders
Barack Obama told a cheering crowd at a town hall meeting in Casper on Friday that he would restore respect for law in the White House by reviewing every executive order issued by President Bush and discarding any deemed unconstitutional.
I think he's out ahead of Hillary on this one. Not that she would want to, ya know, keep the unitary executive or any of that.
My family is in Laramie seeing Obama speak. They're taking pictures and I'll diary them tomorrow after we caucus. We caucus in the morning.
In his speech, Obama praised the libertarian spirit of Westerners, Republicans and Democrats alike, and condemned the Bush administration's use of warrantless wiretaps and willingness to hold prisoners without charges.
"There's nothing Republican about that. Everyone should be outraged by that," he said. His answer drew a standing ovation from a mostly Democratic audience at the Casper Recreation Center.
