Liberal Icon Urges Impeachment: Obama 'The Most Destructive, Dangerous President We've Ever Had'
Independent Journal Review ^ | January 21, 2014 | Mike Miller

Posted on 01/26/2014 9:59:50 AM PST by lbryce

A well-respected constitutional expert is blasting President Obama’s unprecedented abuse of powers, and has decribed him as worse than Richard Nixon. He even goes so far as to call him the most un-American president in the history of the nation.

The words of an arch-conservative? Hardly. The warnings of a liberal icon.

Nat Hentoff, historian, novelist and syndicated columnist, is not a fan of Barack Obama. In fact, Hentoff says it’s time to consider impeachment — citing Obama’s tendency to resort to executive orders or actions whenever his proposals are rejected by the Republican-controlled House of Representatives.

“Apparently he doesn’t give one damn about the separation of power. Never before in our history has a president done these things.”

The executive power abuse issue most recently made the headlines last week when Obama said: “I’ve got a pen … and I can use that pen to sign executive orders and take executive actions.”

You’d expect such a pronouncement to come from a Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck or other “conservative” talk show hosts but they too are quietly increasing their portfolios.

I am billing you for the cost of a new keyboard destroyed by hot coffee having travelled up and out my nostrils, the component having been damaged beyond repair as a result.

"Time for a Conservative party.

Time for Obama to be impeached."

Time for Obama to be tried for Treason, with the maximum sentenced imposed.

It’s quite bizarre, inexplicable.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Its not bizarre or inexplicable.

America has been duped into electing a fascist, undercover of the imagery of “The First Black President,” which appealed to all bleeding hearts in the nation. It was what one may call the curse of, ‘ Two uninformed elections.’

Historians who know the ingrediants of various political movements recognize what Obama was very early, especially those who could apply the Winston Churchill analysis of fascism.

Obama falls into the fascist category, and was clearly known to be this way from his activity. But to say so and prove it was and continues to be “racist.” The facts on Obama were and still are ignored. America, because of its lapse into uniformed ignorance, suffers tremendously.

It is far past time we rid ourselves of Obama and his entire movement ( including Obama’s Joseph Geobbels style continuous campaign , designed to establish an alternate reality of untruth.).

As to what Obama is, we knew from the get go , or had every opportunity to know, many historians said so:

A good read:

Obama the Quintessential Fascist:

Now the battle for the GOP is being waged, by those who do not want to awaken America like Boehner, and by those who do, like Ted Cruz. I am for Ted cruz’s approach, and let the chips fall where they may.

“I’m open to proactive suggestions.”

Why hasn’t this political ad been made yet?

In one scene OweBowMao says he has a pen and a phone blah blah blah

In the next scene ( which actually happened recently ) an Asian guy is demanding that Glorious Leader ( at one of his campaign stops ) issue a decree legalizing all illegals. OweBowMao responds by saying that his hands are tied. It’s not that easy. Congress won’t let him. There’s something called the Constitution binding him blah blah blah . . .

As usual OweBowMao always has it both ways.

The reason that ad and why republicans are so feckless, is out of fear.

Fear, the they will be deemed heartless and evil.

The political narrative has been reduced to the lowest common denominator.

The denominator of the “Self”. Even though they exploit the group mindset, they have captured the attention of virtually every individual and have successfully placed them in a group that needs their protection.

I think that Hentoff used to be very liberal but turned into something of a neo-con as he got older. I’m not sure liberals would think he is a liberal icon nowadays.

Hentoff used to write for The Village Voice which was about as left as it gets. He is, and always has been a First Amendment absolutist. I think he got his walking papers from VV during the reign of Clinton, when he called Clinton a disgrace, and thought he should resign. Nothing about 9/11 changed his mind. He recognizes that Islamofacists are a threat.

We are living in a world that embraces uncertainty.

Excellent summary of the consequences of post-modernity.

Maybe we need to take lessons on self governance from the Egyptians or Ukrainians.

Not sure "snit" is the correct word, unless sustained opposition for 5 years counts as a snit:

Shortly after President Obama took office, Hentoff declared himself as an opponent of the administration’s swift power-grab. As reported by the Huffington Post:

"Obama has little, if any, principles except to aggrandize and make himself more and more important. You see that in his foreign policy. Obama lacks a backbone — both a constitutional backbone and a personal backbone. This is a man who is causing us and will cause us a great deal of harm constitutionally and personally. This is the first administration that has scared me." (Hentoff, 2009)

Hentoff has been opposing the Left on abortion for 30 years. Is that a snit, too?

Soros Took Over our White House – Jarrett Demoted & Plouffe Gone

By: littletboca (Diary) | January 25th, 2014

Basically there’s been quite a shake – up in the White House and the Democrats and George Soros are doing the shaking. They’ve been the brunt of all Obama’s political blunders and have grown weary of their Commander in Chief’s screw ups for the past five years.

Senate and House Democrats are venting their frustrations over the ACA and worried that if it keeps self -destructing the November 2014 Elections are going to be a nightmare for Democrats.
For starters, here are a few disgruntled Democrats who aren’t happy with their Commander in Chief. Mary Landrieu (D – La), Joe Manchin (D-W.Va), Mark Pryor (D – Ark) and Senator Sherrord Brown (D – Ohio.) Only 31 percent of Democrats strongly approved of Obama in a recent Reuters poll.

Obama the community organizer has Democrats breathing down his back saying basically – you ain’t getting the job done “pres” and we have an election coming up in 2012. Obama, the community organizer decided to reopen his internal political operations office and gave a warm “fuzzy” to the Dems by putting David M. Simas, his current assistant in charge of the operations office.

So Obama just assigned another “junk yard” dog (David Simas) to run his new operations office, but that didn’t seem to appease the restless Dems. Obama is frantic and desperate –“desperate men do desperate things.

Stage left in comes George Soros and guess who he brought with him? Old George brought John Podesta his personal hatchet man. John Podesta is without a doubt one of the most vicious evil political progressives in our Nation. In fact George Soros, David Simas and John Podesta are now the “go to” men who will be running our Country now.

Yep.

There is a very good reason why they are CAREER POLITICIANS.

The majority of the sitting members of Congress didn’t have two nickles to rub together when they got there and are now multimillionaires. With the Congressional salary that they draw on an annual basis, how on earth did that happen?

Wonder how long before charges are brought against Hentoff for violating some regulation or other. He done pulled on Superman’s cape...and pulled the mask of the old lone ranger..as the old Jim Croce song put it.
