"Wm Trevor,you know little of the US Constitution."

That's quite true, Arjay… and if it's a competition about who knows how little of the US Constitution you'd win.

But since it's about an executive order regarding the assignment of national security and emergency preparedness communications functions – not a bill – it's a different question entirely.

Plus, of course, I've read it and you obviously haven't otherwise, near the end, you would have noticed in Section 7:

"(d) Nothing in this order shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:
(i) the authority granted by law to an agency, or the head thereof; or
(ii) the functions of the Director of the OMB relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.
(e) This order shall be implemented consistent with applicable law and subject to the availability of appropriations."

And that's before we consider your claim that, "Now Obama takes control of all communications" despite the fact that the executive order doesn't and that he hasn't.

Congratulations, by the way, on "Obama has sined into law…" Amusing and creative.

Just as an aside America really is on the way to becoming a single party state, Obama will most likely win the election but even if Romney does succeed he'll be the last Republican president of the U.S...ever.
It's down to the racial makeup of their society, the Democrats get basically all the non White votes and about 30% of the White working class vote, the Republicans have nothing to offer non Whites and with Whites becoming the minority in a few years even with a 100% White vote they still couldn't carry an election.

Been a bad week in the middle east and lands of SOME Muslims.
A woman shot dead because her husband SAID she was an adulterers.
Men, if you insist on calling them that, openly saying women should always OBEY their men.
Elected governments get told they must not actually rule/govern?
Arjay your selective blindness is at least, amusing.

Imagine if Julia Gillard passed bill that gave control of all media to her and the Labor Party.There would a national outcry. Gillard and Labor are trying to gag the media on the lies of Global Warming the the C02 tax.

Notice that none of this has been reported in the Western Corp Media.You will only find it in the alternative media or Russia Today.

This demonstrates how suppressed our media is.It should be the biggest story on every front page.You lot who think you live in democracy are fools.

Arjay, I read that link you gave and all it does is enable the
executive branch to do what the ACMA always has been able to do here
at times of emergency.

Nothing new there at all.
Every government has ultimate control of the spectrum.

Even I once had control for a few days of a small slice of that
spectrum under powers delegated by ACMA and NSW Emergency Management.
So much so that someone who defied an instruction from me could have
been arrested if I had so requested the senior police officer.

So you see there is nothing all that new or unique in Obama's order.
The FCC has always had that power, it has just been reorganised and updated.
