this isn’t a bull fight. Obama admin is waterboarding us to get its way.
Obama, for all his intellectual weaknesses, has one particularly visionary strength. He knows that the institutions that make up our republic, and the public support necessary to make them solid, have atrophied to the point that they can be easily toppled.
They've been decaying for a while, but the time has become ripe. His remarkable ease at circumventing the law is because there is no widespread faith in the concept of law anymore. People want security, they want results, they want to feel proud, they want a sense of moral superiority, they want money. We're less a nation of laws, and more of a mob, then we've ever been.
Obama is ruling exactly as one would rule a mob. Note how he acts like the law isn't even there. It's because he realizes that for all intents and purposes, it isn't. The only law is what the average American is cool with. There is an awful intelligence behind his actions, and relying on the old institutions to protect us may be disappointing.
Regarding the Chrysler sale (and GM restructuring as well), I think there will be additional cases brought to court by bondholders. One of them WILL be taken by SCOTUS and the rule of bankruptcy law upheld.
In the SCOTUS denial of the Indiana case, their rejection of the case was worded in a way that seemed to leave the door open in future situations should the merits of that case be more apparent. Or maybe the timing of the suit was off.
It will take time and patience, but I truly believe that the rule of bankruptcy law will prevail. The right vehicle just needs to be found to force the reassertion of law. The executive branch has clearly overstepped its bounds into the judicial and must be pulled back.
The Roberts court completed the usurpation of We The People so that now we are the serfs of a federal oligarchy run by the affirmative action figure’s ‘czars’. The lesser czar answers to only the affirmative action figure liar-in-chief, the head Marxist at the top of the federal pyramid, the numero uno czar of czars. We no longer live in a Constitutional Republic, albeit we will be allowed to cast votes in elections for which the outcome is already loaded into the finish. The billions appropriated from the tax coffers for ACORN and its subsidiary criminal enterprises has assured that the federal oligarchs will have the means to bury the past and institute the change leftists have dreamt of and lusted for since Woodrow Wilson.
thanks, bfl
Time for a shadow government.
Thanks for the ping. Very enlightening and astute discussion(s) on this thread.
Larry we just have to keep ringing the fire bell and explaining why this is important. WE CAN’T go down without fighting. We owe it to our kids and grandchildren. Good job!
Thanks neverdem.
