Sadly, no we did not just do that...

If we had there’d be no Boehner, Reid, McConnell or Pelosi protecting the regime.

I think the bigger trouble with America is spiritual. God has been shut too often out of the governor mansion of its heart. So God seems to be at the point that okay, without Me you will get tyranny, how do you like it?

A sane Congress would have impeached Barack Obama years ago let alone now. The camel who began nosing into the tent is now not only all inside, he is energetically boogieing and stepping all over the occupants as he does so.

“Am I confused or was this repealed by the Gruber amendment?”

Let me clear it up for you. Our President is a Constitutional Scholar from Harvard Law School. People like us should not attempt to read the Constitution as it is too nuanced.

““I plan to go through the IRS like the Russians in Berlin.”” Seventy thousand casualties?

Or at least 70K pink slips. If we have a Repub congress, ram through legislation that the President can fire anybody in the executive branch, at will.

“Every last one of them should be out of work when the agency is abolished.”

I agree. If they don’t know how corrupt the IRS is they are
too stupid to be employed there and if they know how corrupt
it is and are still there then that’s even more of a reason
to can them.

“Seventy thousand casualties?” Not enough. Not using your
definition of casualty of course.

Why is it that public sector employees are so special that
they can’t face the threat of unemployment like everyone else.
May be that’s the problem. The Obama sure as hell has nothing
to worry about and that is definitely the problem with him.

There needs to be at least an attempt at a last hurrah. FR, which was known for freeps in person several years ago, has gone quiet in that regard. I’ve been around here long enough to have some sense of history and it has turned in a sad direction.

If the Catholics and Protestants of FR can come to a detente for the sake of agreeing that Jesus will be our only King, we might be able to get divine leverage in this country again. But it would be a mistake to ask God to oust Obama and then leave everything else be. God is not content until everybody who possibly could hear that He is Savior, has heard a credible message to that effect.

If there is no effective opposition, even worse, if the opposition is full of collaborators, it really doesn't matter what the Constitution says. Even if the courts weigh in, Obama has an endless basket of quick outrages and the Courts are slow. Every day, Obama is moving ahead in what looks like a Cloward Piven strategy to completely overload the system and collapse the US.

It’s a game for short term gain and long term loss.

It’s a recipe for the biggest, most useless, most truculent, most incompetent (hey there is a silver lining in the cloud) government this earth has seen yet.

If it does not collapse the Feds first, death by obesity.

There is a fallback government. It is the states. Even the most profligate state is in rosy shape compared with our rickety Feds.

We have been in 1776 for the last six years. Our founding fathers would have been shooting by now.

A drop in the bucket, if we really want to clean this mess up.
I think we are now so far down that road to a Socialist Thugocracy, that patriot blood is the only thing that will save this nation.

How about this for a rallying cry: FACTOR OUT THE FEDS

There will be patriot suffering. Whether it is (and how much) literal blood per se, only God knows. At the least there will be lots of hounding and insults borne. Patriots will have to stand on God and it will have to be in the most pure agape love that can be channeled through imperfect vessels from the Lord. It is for the defense of everybody, even those who never deserved it, not just for us.

“.......we are talking here about taxation with no representation...We are so screwed.”

Here’s how it is going to be interpreted and implemented. When this begins, you most likely won’t be subject to the tax, you won’t be able to bring suit because you have no standing. For you, it is a political question. The judge will tell you to contact your elected representatives. For the (big evil) corporations upon whom the presidential tax is imposed, a suit will be brought. The court will find that the executive power exists to implement Congressional intent that was written in an ambiguous language. Once this happens, this disease will spread to individuals...it will show up on cell phone bills, fuel purchases, etc etc and be upheld.

Don’t bother thinking if some Republican became President and wanted to implement executive order “tax cuts”. First, he will be painted into the corner by the leftist media that such actions are unconstitutional. Courts will be ready to issue injunctions. Of course the Repub will point out that he has the power based on Obama’s executive tax precedence. Then Mr Repub will swerve into a talk about tradition, respecting the Constitution, respecting precedence, wanting to work with Congress, blah blah blah. Obama’s taxes remain in place until the next leftist can get in office to further implement new executive taxes.

Only God can stop him. And since America is under judgment, that won’t happen.

Good point. But consider States don’t have their own currency. Things will get messy.
