Milbank off of his meds again!
The guy who is running his own illegal naturalization program with half a billion of other people’s money is upset that a few guys wrote a letter?
Hilarious.
Gosh, Dana, you’re right, they’re out of control, nearly as much as a Secretary of State who says she’ll decide what emails she lets people see and they can just shut up and be damn grateful, or perhaps as much as a President who decides what part of laws passed by Congress he’s going to allow to be enforced, or media celebrities who decide what narrative the country is going to be presented such as yourself. Congress is a long, long way behind that sort of arrogant, dictatorial insolence.
Congress has a pen and a phone too. They need to be issuing a few letters that Obama can go f himself, and tell federal employees that if they do anything that Obama says in his illegal “executive orders,” they will at some point find themselves subject to prosecution or discipline.
Kneel before Obama or be branded a traitor. What about Pelosi negotiating directly with Assad? Lock that traitor b*tch up!
Milbank is an idiot and his back must ache from carrying all that water for Obama.
They are one part of a coequal branch and within their authority to remind anyone that any agreement is non-binding
“Sabotage Bam’s nuke deal”... HOPEFULLY!!!
Dana Milbank is one of the most useless people on the planet.
Meanwhile Milbank the idiot ignores the fact that Iran is the biggest sponsor of Islamic terrorism in the world, has vowed to wipe Israel off the map, and is completely unpredictable. Sure, why not give these maniacs full nuclear capabilities, huh Dana? Idiot liberals.
I wish this was a news report instead of some liberal’s rantings.
Sabotaging an horrendous deal which would allow evil men to procure nightmare weapons of biblical destruction by pointing out the nuances of the United States Constitution to men of extremely limited intellectual capacity is heroic, at the very least. At least in this man’s opinion.
I just read the excerpt, funny stuff.
Typical Liberal Moronics blather. Keep in mind that, according to them, the Supreme Court consists of Five "Conservatives," and four "Moderates."
Their "Newspeak" is always juvenile and totally ineffectual.
Not to mention, a fool.
Last time I checked the US Constitution, CONGRESS is the bad ass of the block, and has MORE Power and Authority than the other two branches combined.
Then, however, even the young men (Jefferson was only 33 when he wrote the Declaration of Independence) had studied the history of nations and recognized tyranny and abuse of power when they saw it.
Of greater importance, though, they could articulate the ideas essential to liberty clearly and convincingly so that "the people" could participate in the battle against those who sought to rule over them.
The Founders' ideas and principles which underlie our Constitution have been effectively censored from the public mind, but at this critical juncture where the nation's very survival is at stake, and where liberty is at risk, it is fitting that we remind ourselves of some of their cautions:
"The liberties of our Country, the freedom of our civil constitution are worth defending at all hazards: And it is our duty to defend them against all attacks. We have receiv'd them as a fair Inheritance from our worthy Ancestors: They purchas'd them for us with toil and danger and expence of treasure and blood; and transmitted them to us with care and diligence. It will bring an everlasting mark of infamy on the present generation, enlightened as it is, if we should suffer them to be wrested from us by violence without a struggle; or be cheated out of them by the artifices of false and designing men. Of the latter we are in most danger at present: Let us therefore be aware of it. Let us contemplate our forefathers and posterity; and resolve to maintain the rights bequeath'd to us from the former, for the sake of the latter. - Instead of sitting down satisfied with the efforts we have already made, which is the wish of our enemies, the necessity of the times, more than ever, calls for our utmost circumspection, deliberation, fortitude, and perseverance. Let us remember that "if we suffer tamely a lawless attack upon our liberty, we encourage it, and involve others in our doom." It is a very serious consideration, which should deeply impress our minds, that millions yet unborn may be the miserable sharers of the event." Samuel Adams - Essay in the Boston Gazette, October 14, 1771"When designs are form'd to raze the very foundation of a free government, those few who are to erect their grandeur and fortunes upon the general ruin, will employ every art to sooth the devoted people into a state of indolence, inattention and security, which is forever the fore-runner of slavery." - Article signed "Candidus," in Boston Gazette, December 9, 1771
"If the public are bound to yield obedience to laws to which they cannot give their approbation, they are slaves to those who make such laws and enforce them." Samuel Adams- As Candidus in the Boston Gazette, January 20, 1772
"The right to freedom being the gift of God Almighty, it is not in the power of man to alienate this gift and voluntarily become a slave... These may be best understood by reading and carefully studying the institutes of the great Law Giver and Head of the Christian Church, which are to be found clearly written and promulgated in the New Testament." Samuel Adams - Rights of the Colonists, November 20, 1772
"It is the greatest absurdity to suppose it in the power of one, or any number of men, at the entering into society, to renounce their essential natural rights, or the means of preserving those rights; when the grand end of civil government, from the very nature of its institution, is for the support, protection, and defence of those very rights; the principal of which, as is before observed, are Life, Liberty, and Property. If men, through fear, fraud, or mistake, should in terms renounce or give up any essential natural right, the eternal law of reason and the grand end of society would absolutely vacate such renunciation. The right to freedom being the gift of God Almighty, it is not in the power of man to alienate this gift and voluntarily become a slave." - The Rights of the Colonists, November 20, 1772
"Is it now high time for the people of this country to explicitly declare whether they will be free men or slaves. It is an important question which ought to be decided. It concerns more than anything in this life. The salvation of our souls is interested in this event. For wherever tyranny is established, immorality of every kind comes in like a torrent, it is in the interest of tyrants to reduce the people to ignorance and vice. - Samuel Adams
And:
The utopian schemes of leveling and a community of goods, are as visionary and impractical as those which vest all property in the crown. These ideas are arbitrary, despotic, and, in our government unconstitutional. - Samuel Adams
If they succeed, I’m in.
