Elections no longer serve their intended purpose, to temporarily empower others to make law on our behalf, subject to constitutional limitations. Obama plainly said last week that the outcome of the midterms meant the exact opposite of its results. He will issue diktats on behalf of those who didn’t vote! His first act was to lead a barbarian invasion across our southern border.
A last ditch defense of our republic demands two actions.
First, the virus that afflicts our governing body, Barack Obama, must be excised. If not, he will continue his scorched earth demonic march through our God given rights. Just as the first right of man is to self-defense, the first right of civil society is to defend itself from wanton destruction. That means impeachment and removal of Obama. If you don’t see it as a necessary first step, or think it too difficult, go tell your children right now that slavery is their future and you won’t do anything about it. Think slavery is too strong a term? It isn’t. It’s there in our Declaration of Independence, and it wasn’t the first time our patriot founders used the term. Look it up.
Second, we must restore the federal republic. The source of our national woe is the 17th amendment which established a popularly derived, bicameral congress. Make no mistake, the 17th launched our new life as a democratic republic, the sort of unstable government which our framers purposely rejected. The remainder of their layered defense of liberty, consisting of horizontal division of power among three branches, checks in the form of executive vetoes, congressional two thirds overrides, and limitation/regulation of Scotus, have proved insufficient to secure our freedoms.
BTTT
Bravo!!
Thank you. It is so clear to me, but pussy-footed PC behavior has infected our Congress. We have to persist in this, our next step and our only peaceful remedy.
“Impeachment and Article V are positively required.”
I agree.
There is a substitute, or two, but today, with the NSA and any other buzzard-Obama-loving p(o)ss-ant, there are those that dare not mention them. One of those is open rebellion, wiping out anyone that has any connection with the filth that has overshadowed this great nation. The other went by, a few days ago, without any mention on any of the social media, as a historical point to remember.
Absolutely agree.
There are no possible civil soultions any longer outside of the two you outlined.
Elections have been rendered not only useless, but also even possibly placing us in more jeopardy if th epowers that be don’t like the results.
We either take control back now, or be controlled.
We have allowed this too long.
Did you read the book?
100% agreement
the process is so subverted that elections no longer matter at this point .
Coup
” A side armed squad of uniformed Armed Service members walk into the Oval Office and state the following : “ Mr. President , you are under arrest for high crimes in office and treason against the United States of America . You will come with us “
It Takes a Complicit Media to Despoil a Village.
Good intentions, but naive in the current reality we now find ourselves.
You cannot stop lawless tyrants and a corrupt oligarchy via civil means.
Period.
What we can do, is deny them. Defy them. Ignore them. The current Imperial Fascist Oligarchy in D.C. has no legitimate authority over a free people.
NONE.
All they have is the end of a gun to force us into compliance.
Continue to refuse.
When they come to force their will by the end of a gun (and they will) - you will know what has to be done.
This is the only real solution to where we have allowed ourselves to be taken.
It would take conviction and prison to back up that impeachment, or else the entire effort will mean nothing.
It would also take unfunding his whims. Refusing to okay any nominations. We have gotten to this place with his bad people in charge. What is another year or so without an Attorney General?
Also, repealing his love songs like Obamacare.
He is a lame duck with less than two years to go who believes it is his divine right to rule by Executive Order. He has volleyed his first shot. Now is not the time to dither on anything.
We need to encourage our representatives, because they are in the den with the rabid weasel.
We will need to advertise exactly what Obama is doing that is wrong.
And we will need to pray to God for all of our representatives - for moral courage to work against the lawless and evil man.
I did. It was sort of 2 books, to me. One half covered the history of various governments and rebellions. That lead into my favorite part of the book, when and how it might be morally valid to fight tyranny with force (why I posted a link to this book). The second half talks about methods and tactics of warfare, both overt and covert.
