The Constitution? That old thing?
Amen!
Open Letter: Duty and Responsibility of Elected Office
My Open Letter that I am sending all my Representatives, the Speaker of the House and the Senate Elect Majority leader. Amazingly several of the email boxes are full now... But I will continue to send. You are more than welcome to use this letter or any part of it if you are so inclined.
List I Used: Representative Scott / Senate Leader Elect McConnell / Speaker Boehner / Senator Isakson / Senator Chambliss
Our Nation was Founded on the Key Principles that God is where All Our Rights come from, that we are a Nation of Laws the Top Law of which is the Structure of the Government set forth in the Constitution. In the Declaration of Independence We Stated this: We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.
The Constitution is very Clear, Congress is the Law making body and the Executive Branch is charge with the Authority to enforce those Laws. God teaches us Right (Good) and Wrong (Evil) but Mans Arrogance tries to justify a 3rd option, live in the Grey, IE doing a partial right, which is the Lie too many believe in. There is and cannot be No Grey, there is Only Right and Wrong.
Already now the Executive Branch under the Office of the President Obama has broken the Laws such as DOMA, Immigration, Obamacare (changes in the law), Release of Illegal immigrants, and now if this is not enough he is setting up to allow the nation to be Invaded by changing Immigration Law again, chaining minimum wage, Energy production
Myself, Charles Krauthammer and so many more talking heads are all agreeing with Common Sense and the Law that these violations are grounds for Impeachment. But Charles and many more make the equivalence that doing so opens up a Pandoras Box of Politics! They wish to live and make decisions in the Grey. This is the Problem that you and your fellow Representatives need to Seek God and Clearly Focus on doing the Right Thing. Uphold the Law of the Nation, for if the supreme Law of the Nation is not worth upholding then why would any subordinate law be worth following? If we are to be a Nation of Laws the Answer is Simple, or are we to fall into the annals of history as a nation who could not even enforce its most critical laws?
We have Military who perform their Duty and Responsibility by proceeding into hot zones to protect this nation and the office you hold. There are Police who every day fulfill their Duty and Responsibility rushing into the fire or danger to help ensure the Nation is protected against enemys foreign and domestic. They all swore and Oath of Office similar to the one you swore, on the Bible: I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.
It is now time for our Representatives to step up to their Duty and Responsibility and do what they were Elected to do, Uphold the Constitution and ensure the Rights of All are protected and the Laws of this Nation are Enforced.
I will look for a response from my letter but the response should not be a letter back to me, I am looking to see You Stand up and Driving the move to Impeach or your letter of Resignation because the Job before you is beyond your ability. I Pray the Lord will Enlighten you to his Will and give you the Strength to do the Right Thing.
God Bless

The constitution also requires a legislative branch that understands its role and is willing to do its duty. Most of the current Congress is neither.
The congress MUST put the Constitution and the survival of the Republic and the rights and security of the citizens above its own political or personal interests.
Amazingly enough even a lot of folks here do not understand that. It is THE remedy for a POTUS who is lawless. Period.
What I want to know is, what authority does the president have to grant an amnesty.
The subject of executive orders has been tossed around. There are provisions in our laws for the executive branch agencies, and the president himself, to take actions to execute the laws.
So, what I want to know, is there any provision in our existing laws which deal with illegal aliens, for a president to grant an amnesty?
I saw a comparison not long ago, in which whoever wrote an article about executive orders, claimed that Bush had issued more such orders than Obama has. But, without knowing the context and the legal authority given to the executive on the particular subject being dealt with, such is a meaningless comparison.
So, it will be interesting to know, what controlling legal authority is there, for a president to issue a unilateral amnesty to illegal aliens. Will Obama cite any such authority when he issues the amnesty order????
None.
Yep. Should have been done long ago. Damn the torpedos, naysayers and RINOs.
Bttt.

Risk is we are so focused on EO we miss that Obama may just pardon them. Anyway, whatever action he takes should and must be met with impeachment. Let him be the martyr, but get rid of him and undo the damage he has wrought upon the nation and the American people.
I think they should offer the Pres. opportunity, right now, to officially resign. Of course he won’t but it would be on record.
President Slo Jo Biden has a ring to it.
