And the lesson is: Never vote for a Democrat for president again.

Where in the Constitution does it say that the government can give preferences based on race or sex. (Affirmative Action). This is another government policy that has brought about the decline of America.

What they did to those people was shameful.

This president has long thought he was immune from the Constitution.

Sovereign immunity as a principle extends to state and local officials also. It’s pretty well established, although there are federal and state laws that limit its applicability somewhat.
Presidents have a lot of power, even by original intent and even more by modern legal butchery. A high level of legal immunity is part of that power and always has been.

But how does this apply to 0bama?
He is a ‘queen’, not a king.
To: ameribbean expat
I never realized that our country was a monarchy. Good to know.

Obama is a Muslim first, an enthusiastic anti-white racist second. He’s skilled in the leftist/Marxist techniques of societal disruption, a/k/a “organizing”, which he employs in the service of these primary goals.
This behavior fits right in with that description.
It would also be unbelievable under any previous administration.
To: jjotto
Sovereign immunity as a principle...Its pretty well established, Very well established. FReepers are getting the vapors over common law.

A constitutional amendment abolishing sovereign immunity might be necessary.
That would keep the elected officials in line.
To: jjotto
Sovereign Immunity does not extend to illegal acts.
And the supreme court has already ruled that a sitting president can be sued.
