Why Should Obama Declare Martial Law
Canada Free Press ^ | 09/07/16 | Dr Robert Owens

Posted on 09/07/2016 7:16:19 PM PDT by Sean_Anthony

The Progressives have kept their eye on the ball. To them it was always a game of two steps forward then one step back.

If you turn on, tune in, browse or otherwise peruse the alternative media you will undoubtedly come across the question, “Will President Obama declare Martial Law?” or one of its many variants: “Can President Obama use martial law to stay in the White House?” “What is Obama’s plan to declare martial law?” “President Obama signs martial law order.” “President Obama will suspend 2016 election and impose martial law.” And of course there has to be an expos√© with international implications, “Obama instigating war to declare Martial Law and stay in power for a THIRD term?”

Now I love a good conspiracy theory as well as the next person however, after reading these and a gazillion other variations on the theme I have come to the conclusion, why should President Obama declare martial law when he is already ruling by decree, refusing to enforce any laws he disagrees with, nationalizing local police forces, signing treaties by-any-other-name without ratification by the Senate, legislating by fiat, and in general acting like any other tin-pot dictator in a banana republic. In other words his actions are already imposing martial law and no one is connecting the dots. This isn’t conspiracy. This is observation.

Like everything else, he’ll screw this up and declare Marshall Crenshaw.

There is no national "Presidential election", and therefore there is nothing for Obama to suspend.

The President and Vice President are chosen, this year on December 19, by electors appointed by 50 State Legislatures (plus 3 electors unwisely granted to Congress in 1960).

This is a decentralized process that has nothing to do with the government at Washington (again, with the exception of the three electors appointed by Congress).

Even Obama has to know that declaring martial law to keep himself in office would be like shooting pool with a rope.
And that’s best case.

He has his phone and he has his own. The phone will be smashed with a hammer on his departure.

Obama would not declare marital law. He has no way of knowing or controlling the outcome.

True. I didn’t expect that. But I guess she was done with the boy

Here's another observation: Poor old Wile E. Obama has one meaning and intent in mind, and God another.

acme:

the point at which someone or something is best, perfect, or most successful.

Dumb puns to the rescue. :)

I remember hearing the same crap at the end of Clinton’s 2nd term. Then the libs were certain that Bush was going to do the same thing. It’s not going to happen this time either.

His version of “Since nobody wants me, I’m going to take my ball and go home!”

The real question is: What will happen when the ComDem Party ends at the DOJ?

Will someone open the can of worms and start prosecuting the crimes of the past 8 years? If that happens, I’d love a chance to help for about 3 years.

Took me a minute, but I finally realized "own" is "pen" with the first two letters shifted left one key. :-)
