Sessions: Obama Now ‘Emperor of the United States’
The Weekly Standard ^ | 11-19-14 | DANIEL HALPER

Posted on 11/20/2014 9:47:49 AM PST by INVAR

Senator Jeff Sessions calls Barack Obama an "Emperor of the United States" now that the president is going ahead with executive amnesty.

"President Obama previously said he could not issue an executive amnesty because ‘I’m the President of the United States, I’m not the emperor of the United States. My job is to execute laws that are passed.’ Well, apparently we now have an ‘Emperor of the United States,’" Sessions writes in a statement.

"President Obama’s immigration order would provide illegal immigrants with the exact benefits Congress has repeatedly rejected: Social Security numbers, photo IDs and work permits—which will allow them to now take jobs directly from struggling Americans in every occupation. Congress must not allow this unconstitutional action. That means Congress should fund the government while ensuring that no funds can be spent on this unlawful purpose.”

So, finally - someone in office publicly started what many of us have been warning is the truth. Obama has fundamentally transformed us into a Fascist Oligarchy with an Imperial Executive.

And we sit, idle and watch as the Constitution is burned to ashes in front of our face.

The GOPe response: Limp Wimper Tyrannus

Translation: We are limp wristed in the face of Blatant Tyranny.

...and for this stance, McConnell wants Sessions replaced as incoming chair of the Senate Budget Committee.

No, he is not - not legitimately. He’s only acting like it and getting way with it.

It is up to the American People to rise up and take their country back, through state nullification of his unconstitutional federal acts if necessary and/or impeach him for treason against the Constitution and the United States.

Dear Senator Sessions:

We, the people, already know this about our petty tyrant who would be king, and have for some time. The question is:

What are you and what remains of the imperial congress going to do about it?

I have a feeling that this will escalate to a pitch that will be completely out of the GPOe reach.

The only ones who will defend the American people effectively are the ones who are the true statesmen.

They will step up to the plate and we need to pray for them.

Is this a government “of the people”? Is this a government “by the people”? Is this a government “for the people”? Maybe for the people of Mexico, but it sure ain’t for The United States.

It’s customary to name the state. ALABAMA senator. Roll Tide.

No. Not an emperor. Sultan. I believe he sees himself in that role. He behaves like an Ottoman sultan though he has been more hands on of late.

I am not skilled with Photoshop but I believe he should have a jeweled turban rather than a crown.

Just wait until he announces an Executive Order making him president for life .... just like they do in his home country in Africa.

Look, and understand this - the American people WILL NOT be able to stop this tyranny via civil means. PERIOD.

We are waaaaay past that point and our population is being replaced.

Well, if everybody thought that way with King George, we wouldn’t have an America today.

The “patriots” of that day were for King George and England. those for independence were a minority, but they were determined.

As then, so now, there are ways to defeat tyranny, even if it’s on a state-by-state basis. Even if a state chooses financial independence from the illegal feds.

It’s not over until God says it’s over. After all He’s the one who broght about the miracle of America to begin with. As far as I’m concerned it’s not over. If you want to acquiesce to tyranny without a shot being fired, go ahead. That’s not for me. I think there’s a lot more like me also.

You nailed it. As each million of anti-English illiterates pour over the border it will be that much more difficult to ever hope to get them out.

The reality is our Republic will be fatally destroyed tonight by this tyrant's action.

We will quickly be out bred by these cultural destroying, anti-capitalist, anti-American, very anti-English third world illiterates.
