They are complete eunuchs.
If the Democrats had the House and Senate and were dealing with a Republican President who did .0001% of what Obama has done, they would have crucified him. And the GOP Establishment wonders why we are angry?

HOUSTON, TX. – February 22, 2016: True the Vote (TTV), the nation's leading voters’ rights and election integrity organization, today offered comment on a recent lawsuit filed by a collection of progressive interest groups with assistance from the U.S. Department of Justice, intent on removing citizenship verification measures in voter registration.
Litigation was initially triggered after the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) granted the requests of Kansas, Georgia and Alabama to require local users of the National Mail Voter Registration Form to submit documentary proof of U.S. citizenship. Since the filing, DOJ attorneys originally slated to represent the EAC in court today abandoned their client party and barred the Commission from providing its own legal representation, according to filings released today.
“In advance of the 2016 election, the Obama Administration and its radicalized Department of Justice have launched a full scale effort to embolden leftist political allies and destroy election integrity,†True the Vote Founder Catherine Engelbrecht said. “Today’s message is clear: any state or federal agency that works to prevent non-U.S. citizens from registering to vote in 2016 will witness the full wrath — lawful or not -- of the Department of Justice.â€
“We are being ruled by a government that brazenly uses its own Department of Justice to support the lawsuits of progressive interest groups while simultaneously denies defendants the right to legal representation in court. If the American people do not stand against this assault on liberty, where will it end?†Engelbrecht continued.
The True the Vote founder stressed that regular American voters have a role to play in fighting back against DOJ overreach, regardless of the court case’s outcome:
“What we are witnessing is the common thug ethic on unabashed display in Washington. Common thugs use fear and intimidation as a means to control. Common thugs take what they want, never mind the collateral damage. Common thugs walk out on their responsibilities for selfish convenience. But, these common thugs can be stopped if law-abiding citizens will stand their ground. This November, True the Vote-trained election mon
More than likely, imo, they are encouraging this action!!!
You would think Obama would get tired of getting slapped down by the courts (even his own team) I guess he can say “I tried”
They are complete eunuchs.

Remember Lynch was Al Sharpton’s top pick to fill in for Holder.
This election is being called a revolution. If changes are not made, there will be a “REVOLUTION” in the future. (imo)(cfeo)
And the only person that might save us is Trump and we will be damn lucky to get enough votes to elect. Remember he wants to kick all illegal the hell out of America. The rest of the candidates will make them citizens in spite of their fancy talk.
”Mr. Speaker, that the scope and meaning of the limitations imposed by the first section, fourteenth amendment of the Constitution may be more fully understood, permit me to say that the privileges and immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added], as contradistinguished from citizens of a State, are chiefly defined in the first eight amendments to the Constitution of the United States.” - John Bingham, Appendix to the Congressional Globe
” 3. The right of suffrage was not necessarily one of the privileges or immunities of citizenship before the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, and that amendment does not add to these privileges and immunities. It simply furnishes additional guaranty for the protection of such as the citizen already had [emphases added].” - Minor v. Happersett, 1874.
So the four voting rights amendments, 15th 19th, 24th and 26th, protect only U.S. citizens.
But more importantly, note that none of the voting rights amendments prohibit the states from prohibiting people from voting if they cannot prove that they are citizens. So other than the very real possibility that state officials do not understand the scope of constitutional protections, there is nothing stopping the states from prohibiting people who cannot prove U.S. citizenship from voting imo.
They could not do it from the outside
but definitely are having success on the INSIDE!! (cfeo)
Question is?
How long will the Constitution stand as we know it.
It is under attack! Our pResident openly shows contempt for it!!
The point of “NO RETURN” is coming fast! (cfeo)
They seemed to be pleased with themselves.
Hope this time next year they have another expression!!
“and just declare King Obama a permanent dictator.”
And what makes you think they haven’t already done so, and by Executive Order and other manipulations declare it so publically.
We really need a Convention of States.
Cruzbots will rejoice this is one way to beat Trump in the general election.
No matter who OUR next President, HOPE and pray the Constitution will be supported and upheld!!
In CA. they are already voting don’t kid yourselves!!!! This state is not the way it is due to American citizens believe me!!!!
NOTHING will be out of line to ensure HIllary’s coronation.
Too late! Mooch-hell said she hated it first.
Has Trump stated that he get rid of the current unconstitutional substitute congress - the czars? If not he should.
We are in the middle of a coup.
HOPE and pray the Constitution will be supported and upheld translated is Espero y deseo se apoyo y confirmo la Constitucion
Agreed!!
How many recognize this?
