Article V or Civil War II. The SCOTUS is controlled by blackmail, and enough of congress is under blackmail or paid off. The fix is in. The military will do nothing but follow orders. Stormy weather ahead.

Thanks, Travis, for that citation to your excellent post which I regret having missed on its first appearance but this time it is going into my archives.

I recommend it to all FReepers who have not seen it. It is a thorough recounting of many of Obama's depredations and any thoughtful reader will have to come to grips with the inescapable question, where is Obama and his gang going with this?

Now that the government is funded to next September (I could only count my self as terminally naïve if I believed that anything will happen to Obamacare in February), Boehner and McConnell have in effect given Obama carte blanche to run wild with unconstitutional and ultimately tyrannical executive orders.

That is why I said in an earlier post that our constitutional government is in mortal peril. We are in mortal peril of the kind of tyranny that emerged after the Reichstag fire to which you refer.

Article V or Civil War II

Yep. This is the crossroads.
