Obama: Bush used signing statements to "accumulate more power"

  Obama 2008: (video available here)
"That's not part of his power, but this is part of the whole theory of George Bush that he can make laws as he goes along. I disagree with that. I taught the Constitution for 10 years. I believe in the Constitution and I will obey the Constitution of the United States. We're not going to use signing statements as a way of doing an end-run around Congress," then-Senator Obama said as a presidential candidate in 2008.
  Now according to rewritten DHS policy: We no longer care if you are an illegal immigrant anymore.
  How about we promote "diversity" through executive order.
  Before you can get a federal contract, let's find it out who receives your political donations.
  More assploding hypocrisy here.
