.....Count me out.....
You expressed well the problem. You have clearly become part of the problem. You are hidebound to rules that are killing out society and hold to those rules while you are slowly being killed
Obama took power by changing rules. He must be deposed in like manner. Once the problem is solved, perhaps there can be return to a rule of law rather than a rule of lawyers.
Robert Bolt’s words put in the mouth of Thomas More in A Man for All Seasons when More’s son-in-law, William Roper the Younger, accused More of being willing to give the Devil the benefit of the law, that is, not arresting More’s informant-servant until the servant had clearly committed an illegal act.
Roper wanted More to act preemptively, outside the law, to stop a man dangerous to More’s own life. More said, until he’s done something illegal, I cannot arrest him. When Roper said to More, you would protect the Devil by giving him the benefit of the law, More said, (paraphrasing from memory): “The laws of England are like trees, the country is planted thick with them. And if you’ve cut down all the trees to get after the Devil, what are you going to do when the Devil turns on you and you have cut down all the laws that you now would need in order to protect you.”
Granted, there’s a hell of a lot of violation of our laws going on by our elected officials.
But the solution cannot be violating the law in order to get after the lawbreakers. The founders provided political solutions—elections. You can bluster about elections being fraudulent etc. I know all about ACORN and voter fraud. But the solution there has to be political activism to expose and legitimately penalize by law ACORN and other electoral defrauders, to restore the credibility of elections. The solution cannot be to act extra-legally.
As the founders said, the time can come, in the course of human events to break political bonds and overthrow the current regime and establish a new one.
But before people say that, they better be damn sure that that’s the pass we have come to because it is a call to revolution, to overthrowing of the existing rule of law.
To claim that one is upholding the law by acting outside the law is foolish.
Even if Obama is the Devil himself, efforts to remove him must proceed legally or otherwise, you will have removed a fraudulent leader by being a fraudulent leader yourself.
And appeals to posse comitatus are not sufficient to cloak these calls to action in legality—unless you want to grant to the Kos Kids the same legality to engage in extra-legal posse comitatus action whenever they feel like it.
Trust me, you don’t want to go there.
