As I look back on this past week, I have to summarize it in one word: crisis.
Domestically we face a constitutional crisis with a president who doesn’t believe he must adhere to our fundamental system of governance. If you have some time, take a read through or refresh yourself on the “Spirit of the Laws” by Charles-Louis de Secondat, Baron de La Brède et de Montesquieu in 1748.
In that simple treatise, Montesquieu presented the idea of the separation of powers, checks and balances, and coequal branches of government. These ideas were adopted by our Founding Fathers, more specifically, James Madison, as he wrote the Constitution of the United States and the Federalist Papers – which I believe President Obama, the self-proclaimed constitutional scholar, has never read.
Montesquieu said, “When the legislative and executive powers are united in the same person or in the same body of magistrates, there can be no liberty. The same monarch or senate would enact tyrannical laws and execute them in a tyrannical manner.”

King Barry studied our Constitution for the purpose of defeating it.
” The same monarch or senate would enact tyrannical laws and execute them in a tyrannical manner.”
But......it’s “for the children....”!
“the greatest Pavlovian experiment the world has ever known. America would reward the most abhorrent of behavior ....”
I realize this is just tangential to the point of the article; but, the author isn’t describing a “Pavlovian experiment”. A “Skinnerian experiment”, perhaps — but not Pavlovian. Operant, not classical conditioning.
This stinky “turd on a stick” is not going to be POTUS forever. When the tide changes, and it will, lest not ever forget these communist rat bassturds by specific name and party, and what they’ve done to our country.
Also, remember them personally if they and theirs live in your neighborhood. Shun these degenerate insects.
I’m just waiting for the time when 0bama nullifies elections and proclaims himself president for life.
I don’t think Obama has studied much of anything. And I believe Obama is a puppet. I believe those in congress are puppets as well. No one will stop Obama because they have no desire to stop him.
The elites let Soetoro get elected because they wanted to show how egalitarian we are.
We coulda had Alan West if we needed to do that.
And if he were to declare term limits (Presidential) to be null and void and permanent rule .. then what?
No One has challenged him on anything to date!
"That the pretended power of suspending laws, or the execution of laws, without consent of Parliament is illegal."
"That the pretended power of dispensing with the laws, or the execution of the laws by regal authority, as it hath been assumed and exercised of late, is illegal."
