I just don’t understand how people can be so stupid. How can they not see what is going on? There has been a coup, the Constitution was burned, and we now live under a dictatorship. Don’t these people read the papers??

If these people even have to ask if he is lawless, it proves they are clueless. The question was answered long ago.

Most people are not politically aware. As long as their little “soccer mom” world is not effected, they don’t care.

People have been indoctrinated from birth with the constant mantra that the government is the be-all and end-all of their existence and until the government begins stopping them on the streets asking for their “papers”, most will not protest.

Then it will be too late.

Ain't it the truth.

I live in a small town. Our schools are funded by property taxes. Our stupid school system screwed up its bookkeeping and spent $2.5M more than it had. For us, this is a very big deal. We've been having public hearings -- the purpose of which is three-fold:

Establish school funding priorities
Find new revenue sources
Cut the budget where possible.

People have been coming to hearings and people have been very vocal, in a positive way. Here's how it's playing out:

Ideas to prioritize the kids over the administration -- School response: "Nope. We're cutting all the stuff the kids care about."
New revenue ideas: School response: "Nope, that won't work."
Ideas to trim the budget. School response: "Nope. Can't cut there -- unless it will seriously hurt the kids: then we can cut."

After the last hearing, people were exiting the auditorium, and I heard some concerned people asking each other: "Do you think the town officials are going to propose raising our tax rate?"

Oh.
Gee.
That thought never occurred to me ...

Way back I felt that 2/3 of Americans are as dumb as a box of rock when it comes to the Federal Government. I haven't changed. And at least half of those 2/3 are communists Democrats and believe in a dictatorship. America is finished.

It is far worse than just the whitehouse. Liberal courts are lawless. And here is the key left out of most discussions, the democrats in the senate protect the lawless against constitutional remedies. This is the key that allowed the marxists to steal the courts and steal the executive. And protects against their unconstitutional actions to this day.

...how can people be so stupid?

Not sure I can answer that but it is worse than we think! Drudge reports a new poll / test indicates that 26% of Americans tested didn't know the earth revolves around the sun. Bet they vote too. Bet I know who they vote for.

Jonathan Turley and Nicholas Rosenkranz with Megyn Kelly, discussion Obama's abuse of power...well, yes, but Megyn keeps disappointing by failing to ask Turley the big question: "The Constitutional solution to this problem of abuse of power, Mr. Turley, is Impeachment - were the Republicans in the House to begin hearings on the impeachment of this president next week, would you publicly and emphatically support them?" - my guess is, for all his big talk, Turley would run for the hills along with all his other "progressive" buddies as soon as the 'pubs got serious about removing this incipient dictator.....

“To be GOVERNED is to be kept in sight, inspected, spied upon, directed, law-driven, numbered, enrolled, indoctrinated, preached at, controlled, estimated, valued, censured, commanded, by creatures who have neither the right, nor the wisdom, nor the virtue to do so.

To be GOVERNED is to be at every operation, at every transaction, noted, registered, enrolled, taxed, stamped, measured, numbered, assessed, licensed, authorized, admonished, forbidden, reformed, corrected, punished.

It is, under pretext of public utility, and in the name of the general interest, to be placed under contribution, trained, ransomed, exploited, monopolized, extorted, squeezed, mystified, robbed; then, at the slightest resistance, the first word of complaint, to be repressed, fined, despised, harassed, tracked, abused, clubbed, disarmed, choked, imprisoned, judged, condemned, shot, deported, sacrificed, sold, betrayed; and, to crown all, mocked, ridiculed, outraged, dishonored.

That is government; that is its justice; that is its morality.”

P.J. Proudhon, General Idea of the Revolution in the Nineteenth Century, trans. John Beverley Robinson. London: Freedom Press, 1923, p. 294

I listened to the interview. I can guarantee there is a 100% certainty that the evil Turley would be livid at ANY impeachment against Obama.

I plan to post something at his site. Think about this. The evil Turley professes some respect for our Constitutional government -- he lies. He lies because he knows that almost every act the Marxist takes is a direct and willing violation of our beloved Constitution.

The evil Turley is a fraud because he will NEVER entertain impeachment, but will support the Marxist to the end.

For the evil Turley and ALL on the left, the love of an all powerful State always trumps the Constitution.

Mao's followers did do something right -- they "took care" of all the intellectuals.

God help us if they bring our Republic to a collapse, for if they do, I pray the Warrior class will not show any mercy towards all in the MSM and the progressive intellectual class.
