Joe Biden and Barack Obama have an assault rifle with a 30 round magazine pointed at the temples of Congress, the Senate, and America.
They have decided that, to achieve the same gun control that only twenty years ago required the consent of both the House of Representatives and the Senate, all they need to do is issue some Imperial Decrees.
This Emperor Obama has decided to simply NOT CONSULT and NOT INVOLVE both of the Houses of government, the House of Congress and the Senate, and unilaterally impose rules that only 20 years ago required consent of both of them.
They state that Executive Orders can now take the place of the normal legislative process. They state that there is no need for a Bill to make its way from from the House, to the Senate, to the President's Desk.
There are two things happening here: 1) The imposition of draconian gun control that only TWENTY YEARS AGO required a Bill, and 2) The complete removal of the House of Congress and the Senate from this -- and subseqently, ALL -- decision making processes.
This completely upend the American process of legislating. If they succeed, all the educational books outlining the American process of legislating need to be discarded, since from that point forward, Congress and the Senate become completely excluded from the process. At that point, all that is needed is a Imperial Decree in the form of an Executive Order.
If Obama succeeds on this very treacherous new path, he will have effectively overthrown the government, and Congress and the Senate might as well simply adjourn forever. They will no longer truly have any point to existing afterwards.
This cannot stand. There can be only one solution. THIS MAN MUST BE IMPEACHED AND CONVICTED AND REMOVED FROM OFFICE. Even the *liberals* in the Senate understand POWER, and they should understand that -- should this brazen effort to upend the Constitution succeed -- their importance and their position of power will be completely liquidated. This is America at its exact moment of being overthrown. If they do not vote to convict, after the House impeaches, they will have no power any more.
THIS IS THE IMPEACHMENT MOMENT.
Merely a free choice to include you since the reference to them was an advice from you.
First of all, the Senate is part of Congress. You must mean the House of Representatives.
Second the Senate has it's collective head so far up Obama's posterior, the flash from a nuke wouldn't penetrate to their eyeballs. No way they are going to impeach him. He could hand the keys to the missiles in the silos and subs to the Russians and Chinese, and they'd be passing a resolution urging that he be given another Nobel Peace prize.
The House will probably pass FienSwine's bill when that comes to them, with The Speaker and sufficient RINOS voting Aye to pass it. They wouldn't want to be spoken of unkindly in the media by the Hollywierdos.
Well, maybe. It takes both houses, and a super majority in each to override the inevitable veto.
The Senate wouldn't even get 50% on passage, if Harry let them vote on the thing in the first place.
It doesn't but, as with criminals and gun control laws, he is already not following the Constitution.
What's one more transgression to him? Less than nothing.
