Where there are no checks and balances, the way is open for dictatorship. Obama owns the Executive and Legislative Branches. Has he bought the Judicial Branch, too, or are they asleep? SCOTUS needs a lesson from Honduras. When their president wanted another term in violation of their constitution, their SC warned him to desist. When he printed ballots for a referendum on it, the SC ordered the military to arrest and exile him. The leftists: Obama, Chavez, Clinton, Castro and the OAS went nuts, calling it an illegal coup when it was actually a restoration of the rule of law. SCOTUS looked the other way when Obama refused to hand over eligibility documents to Justice Souter. Did he resign to keep from being suicided? When Obama stole the Census, the SCOTUS slept. Ditto nationalizing industries, gave preference to unions and broke contracts, dropped criminal charges for election violations against Black Panthers,etc. etc. He still has 3 and a half years to grant amnesty to illegals, make reparation payments for slavery, and ratify the ICC which allows UN troops to disarm citizens. Does the silence of SCOTUS imply consent? Will he declare martial law before/during the 2010 elections keep power? Many thought Nixon would use the military to preserve his power. Does anyone doubt that Marxist Obama would do that? Sleep on you old folks in black robes, and abandon your reason for existence while your country crumbles around you.
Wait... What?
