Tuesday, a few minutes after noon Eastern Standard Time, the world watched as Barack Obama took the oath of office as President of the United States of America. Since such event, President Obama has formally submitted to the Senate nominations for Cabinet officers and will likely issue several executive orders in the next few days. However, due to what we all saw take place during the swearing-in ceremony, those actions by the President may well be unconstitutional. Before you continue, please note that this piece is not about President Obama not meeting the constitutional qualifications to become president under the...

You and I have been assured that January the 20th, 2009 is a day like no other. It's supposed to be a historic day. The promise of change is in the air. The individual to be sworn in to be the President of the United States is being cannonized by the media. This historic day changes everything, I am assured. Tom Hanks is just thrilled. So are many other "beautiful people". HBO has devoted many hours to the Commander in Chief Elect. The red carpet is being rolled out by major media outlets, the Democrat party, the citizens of the...

Here is a discussion about the use of "So help me God" in the Presidential Oath of Office that took place today on Fox News. A federal judge has cleared the way today for the words to be used in the Oath of Office. An atheist had sued to keep Obama from being able to use the words. The discussion on the video also talks about the use of ministers such as Rick Warren to pray at the inauguration. At least there is still one federal judge with some common sense left in his head. . . . . ....

California State University East Bay has fired a math teacher after six weeks on the job because she inserted the word "nonviolently" in her state-required Oath of Allegiance form. Marianne Kearney-Brown, a Quaker and graduate student who began teaching remedial math to undergrads Jan. 7, lost her $700-a-month part-time job after refusing to sign an 87-word Oath of Allegiance to the Constitution that the state requires of elected officials and public employees. "I don't think it was fair at all," . . .

The preamble of our Constitution says, "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." Upon assuming his office, our president raised his right hand and made the following promise to the citizens of America: "I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best...

This is time for action. Two things need to be done from what I can see. First call your representative and demand to talk to the legislative aid and make sure you have your copy of the Constitution in your hand for quick reference. Ask what they are going to do to over turn this. Yes Congress does have that power especially when the ruling is obviously contrary to the constititution. The land must be taken for public use with just compensation not private corporate use (the public benefit does not even come into play). It is enumerated in the...

This letter can be considered a “Call to Arms” for Viet Nam Veterans, their families, friends, and supporters, all veterans of our armed forces and of course, our nation’s men and women currently in uniform. It will accompany the Draft Prosecution of John F. Kerry to the aforementioned; otherwise the cover letter will not be included to those addressees considered not to fall into the above category. Let me begin by stating that I found this Draft Prosecution on the Internet and made some minor changes and corrections to it. Apparently it fell by the wayside when President Bush was...

Syndicated TV news commentator Mark Hyman with "The Point" has another scoop. It appears John Kerry may have violated the Uniformed Code of Military Justice (military law) when he defied a court order during his 1971 protests while still under the oath of office as a Naval Reservist. Hyman has all of the pertinent documents linked from his website. "I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; …so help me God." This is the solemn oath taken by everyone who joins the military. It's the same...

Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor confessed last week that she has violated her oath of office in the past. That she intends to violate her oath in the future. And that she thinks this is good for America. Does that sound highly improbable? Wouldn't the national press have covered such a thing if it happened? Read on. The Constitution states the oath of office that Presidents must take before entering on their duties. Each President must swear (or affirm) that he will "to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." By...

AMERICAN CONSTITUTIONAL RESEARCH SERVICE TYRANTS IN TALLAHASSEE…smoking ban crowd May 24th, 2003 Well, it appears Florida’s Legislature has decided to use its office of public trust to enforce the wishes of an intolerant, belligerent and factious group of voters which approved a state wide voter initiative, Amendment 6, demanding the force of government to be used to forbid smoking on privately owned property, and likewise forbid businesses owners to allow smoking within their business establishments. What is most amazing is Florida’s Legislators, as well as other state legislators, in pandering to this factious group of voters, is willing to ignore...

By JIM ABRAMS ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush should take the lead in overcoming resistance within his own party to extending an assault weapons ban due to expire next year, Democrats said Wednesday. "If the bill dies we will lay it at the president's doorstep," Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., said a day after House Majority Leader Tom DeLay told reporters that the 1994 law banning the manufacture of 19 types of common military-style assault weapons would not be renewed. Schumer said the gun bill would be an issue in the 2004 election, a development that could pose problems...

All retroactive laws are unconstitutional. Supposedly, we are protected against such heavy-handed political impositions. Our social compact with government, the United States Constitution, forbids such actions by government. That is, if We the People are willing to enforce the issue. First, we should ask our Representatives and Senators if they intend to honor their oath of office. You know, the one where they swear to uphold, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. . . . Then, ask your Member of Congress to read Article I, Section 9, paragraph 3 of the Constitution, which states: "No Bill of...

Last Thursday, House Democrats elected Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) as House Minority Leader. Pelosi won the minority leader position on a 177-29 vote. That is, only 29 House Democrats voted against her. Clearly, 177 agree with her positions. This is a very important point. Because, now we can define, specifically, what the House Democrats are and what they stand for. Money is the life-blood of politics. Like Hillary in the Senate, Pelosi capitalized on that. In so doing, Pelosi bought her position within the Democratic Party. According to Opensecrets.org(1), Pelosi set up her own PAC and quickly became a major...

Last week, Rep. Bob Barr (R-GA) was joined in a press conference by an interesting coalition of national organizations and legislators in support of a new bill. In attendance were both the National Rifle Association and American Civil Liberties Union. The ultra liberals Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) and Rep. Melvin Watt (D-NC) were there, as were folks from the Eagle Forum. Lucky for us, so was Dave Boyer, reporting for The Washington Times.(1) The event was called by Rep. Barr to introduce the Federal Agency Protection of Privacy Act, a bill Barr says was drafted to "improve the regulatory process...

Statement by the President Like many Republicans and Democrats in the Congress, I support common-sense reforms to end abuses in our campaign finance system. The reforms passed today, while flawed in some areas, still improve the current system overall, and I will sign them into law. The legislation makes some important progress on the timeliness of disclosure, individual contribution limits, and banning soft money from corporations and labor unions, but it does present some legitimate constitutional questions. I continue to believe the best reform is full and timely disclosure of campaign contributions. ###
