Obama and his Sycophants want a Dictatorship

Asked Friday (3/1/2013) by CNN Chief White House Correspondent Jessica Yellin why President Obama can't simply refuse to let congressional leaders leave a room until they reach a deficit-reduction agreement, the president said he can't "force Congress to do the right thing...Jessica, I am not a dictator, I'm the president," he said

Michelle Obama reminded Oprah that Barack was not a 'Dictator' when her and Barack was interviewed by Oprah.

In ancient Rome during times of great exigency or imminent danger, it was customary for the Romans to appoint what they termed a 'Dictator' for a period of six Months. This 'Dictator' was a supreme executive who was given absolute and unlimited powers to save the state from the threat.

The powers of a Roman 'Dictator' were infinite, but only for six months and under very well defined conditions - not at all like what we call a dictator today.

This is the second time that I can recall that Obama has stated that he is NOT a dictator, which means a 'Dictatorship' is something that is on his mind or is being talked about in his presence.

What Obama and sycophants would like to see is a 'Roman Type Dictatorship' for the period remaining in his Presidency.

Not only has Barack Obama said at least twice that he is NOT a Dictator, he also said at least once that he is NOT Emperor of the United States.

February 14, 2013 (Google Hangout)
"This is something I’ve struggled with throughout my presidency," said Obama. "The problem is that I’m the president of the United States, I’m not the emperor of the United States. My job is to execute laws that are passed."
Barack Obama

We must remember that Obama is a lawyer, which makes him a 'Wordsmith' (One who uses words skillfully.).

Emperor = The sovereign or supreme ruler of an empire: a title of dignity conventionally superior to that of king.

Notice how Obama states that a "Problem" he has "Struggled" with throughout his Presidency - is that he is ONLY the President and NOT the Emperor of the United States.

Cal Thomas Quote:

"President Obama is no longer president in the constitutional sense. He appears to have elevated himself to the role of emperor, deciding unilaterally what should be the law and what should not, bypassing Congress and placing himself in the role of Julius Caesar.

First it was the revelation that he has a "hit list" from which he alone decides who lives and who dies by drone strikes in Pakistan and Yemen.

With last Friday's announcement that he intends to effectively grant amnesty to a category of illegal aliens, according to criteria he has set -- their age, a spotless criminal record, a minimum level of education, and/or military service -- the president has technically, possibly deliberately and it can be argued illegally, violated his oath of office in which he swore to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States" so help him God. Whose help does the president seek when he acts as if he is God?

The Constitution empowers Congress, not the president, to make laws, but President Obama has bypassed that body to become a Congress of one and a law unto himself."

President Obama, like many leftist constitutional law professors, seems to have studied the Constitution for the same reasons a professional burglar studies locks and safes.

Stephanie Hessler Quote:

"A look at President Obama’s first term shows his repeated disregard for the Constitution that he has sworn to preserve, protect, and defend. Since taking office, Obama has betrayed contempt for our constitutional system of separation of powers. Our framers established three distinct branches of government so that each would serve as a check on the others, and so that none could trample on individual liberty. Obama has continually circumvented Congress’s constitutional role and he has denigrated the job of the judiciary. These repeated infractions seem to stem from a fundamental disregard for the rule of law and the text of the Constitution."

Michele Bachmann Quote (June 2012):

"In order to become President, Barack Obama had to swear to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution. But three years later, I am disgusted with the disregard that the President continues to show to our Constitution. Has he forgotten about the separation of executive, judicial and legislative branches found in our founding document? Our founders gave us a system of checks and balances so that one person could never seize more power than was provided in the Constitution.

President Obama’s actions demonstrate that he thinks he’s above the law. When he doesn’t get his way, he creates new policies to his liking.

Under Obamacare, an even playing field doesn’t exist for businesses. And President Obama must have recognized that, because he ordered his Health and Human Services Secretary to provide waivers from the healthcare overhaul. Unions, universities and restaurants in Nancy Pelosi’s district received waivers so that they didn’t have to comply with the law.

Then we have the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). Passed in 1996, DOMA is a federal law that defines marriage as being between one man and one woman. But earlier this spring, the administration said it will no longer defend the constitutionally of DOMA. So even though this law is on the books – passed by Congress and signed into law by President Clinton – President Obama just thinks we should ignore it.

Last week Obama threw the Constitution out the window again. Even through Congress disagreed, the President was happy to circumvent the Constitution in order to protect younger illegal immigrants from deportation and hand them work permits. He stands resolute in this position despite the fact that, a year prior, the President said this about immigration: “Some people want me to bypass Congress and change the laws on my own.” He continued, “That’s not how our system works. That’s not how our democracy functions. That’s not how our Constitution is written.”

Today, President Obama invoked executive privilege so Attorney General Eric Holder wouldn’t have to turn over documents on Fast and Furious. That is not what executive privilege was intended for!

Where will the madness end? When will the President stop blatantly disregarding the Constitution?

Sadly, I don’t think this President cares that he is ignoring the laws of our land. Nor, does he plan to curb his agenda. In fact, I expect things to only grow worse under this President. Thanks to an open mic in March, President Obama was caught telling Russian President Dmitry Medvedev that he will have “more flexibility” in his second term.

The future of our country depends on making sure that the executive head of our nation knows he is subject to our laws and that he is under the Constitution.

Mr. President, I urge you, stop your autocratic reign; drop everything you are doing and read the Constitution. You will be well-served to remember the document that you swore to preserve, protect and defend."

Andrew Klavan - Michele Bachmann Makes a Gaffe

Michelle Bachmann is running for president and she's supported by the Tea Party. You know, the "angry" ... "emotional" ... "ugly" middle Americans with "low-sloping foreheads" who believe in constitutional government, lower spending and the rule of law. Let's join our MSM pals and freak out when Bachmann says something so we can let everyone know about it and she won't be elected in 2012. Is this fun or what?

Michele Bachmann - Restoring Constitutional Government

I am a constitutional conservative. So what does that mean? I've earned a couple of law degrees, but defining "constitutional conservatism" shouldn't require a legal scholar.

Let me start by pointing out that the conservative movement, as Ronald Reagan believed, is a three-legged stool. One leg consists of peace-through-strength conservatives, another of fiscal and economic conservatives, and the third of social conservatives - the values voters.

Constitutional conservatism includes all three of those legs. My candidacy is based on the unity of the conservative movement - because each leg of the stool is vital.

I believe our founders knew what they were doing when they designed a limited government with specific, enumerated powers. I'm also convinced that many of our problems result from the federal government's insatiable - and unconstitutional - grab for power and money.

On issues ranging from light bulbs to bailouts to the Dodd-Frank banking legislation, Washington has been on a destructive spree of bureaucratic empire-building. It's time for that to stop.

Moreover, I believe in the unjustly neglected Tenth Amendment: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

Instead of piling more costly mandates on the states and intrusive laws on the people, our federal government should respect all of the resources and responsibilities that properly belong to the states, to local governments, to private industry and, most of all, to the people.

James Madison cautioned that for a "government to control the governed" it must be obliged "to control itself." A government that fails to exercise self-control and respect its own boundaries is a threat to the rights and liberties of its citizens.

Among those rights is the right to life. I believe we must restore and respect the dignity of life for all, the born and unborn. As we read in the Declaration of Independence, we are endowed by our Creator with rights, starting with the right to life.

Another essential right is embodied in the Second Amendment: the right of law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms. Whether for self-defense, hunting or recreation, this right must be protected.

And of course, we must repeal Obamacare. We must pull it up by its roots for many good reasons, including the fact that the so-called personal mandate is unconstitutional.

In addition to individual rights, the Constitution establishes vital checks and balances among the branches of government. As Montesquieu argued, the separation of governmental powers stands as a roadblock to tyranny. We've seen President Obama stretch that separation with his unjustified military action in Libya.

As commander in chief, I'll make sure that America will lead from the front, not "lead from behind." If we do go to war, we will fight with the resources we need to succeed. I will listen to my generals and admirals, not my pollsters. I will safeguard American sovereignty and I will protect our borders.

But from the beginning, I will think always of - and abide always by - the United States Constitution.

Finally, let's consider perhaps the most pressing current issue of all: the proposed increase in the national debt ceiling. I will vote against any increase in the debt ceiling because there needs to be a fundamental restructuring in how Washington spends taxpayer dollars.

Unfortunately, the Obama administration didn't seem eager recently to quash the notion that the congressional power of the purse, as enumerated in Article One of the Constitution, is merely a detail that can be pettifogged away by sharp lawyers. On this issue, I stand with the clear thinking of former federal judge Michael McConnell, who wrote recently:

"Section Four of the Fourteenth Amendment does not create a back-door method for the Administration to borrow more money without congressional authorization."

It's that philosophy - a strict construction of the Constitution - that I will look for in judicial appointees and that I will bring back to the executive branch.

In the meantime, I will continue to oppose any increase in the debt limit; I will oppose the budgetary shenanigans aimed at persuading Americans that phony spending cuts are somehow real. Constitutional conservatives, and all conservatives, should draw a firm line here.

It is time to put an end to government power grabs. It is time to restore constitutional government.

Rep. Michele Bachmann represents the Sixth District of Minnesota and is a candidate for President of the United States.

Jeannie DeAngelis - Questioning Michele Bachmann's Foster Parent Claims

Originally posted at American Thinker

---

In order to understand liberalism, all one needs to do is take note of what the left applauds versus what they attack. Case in point: Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann -- wife, mother to five biological children, and foster mother to 23 teenagers -- has now become the focal point of left-wing attacks as they prepare to diminish her stature by attacking her family.

Michele gave a stellar performance at the Republican debate. It was in that forum that she announced her decision to "seek the office of the presidency of the United States of America." The only woman on the platform, Michele voiced strong convictions, attacked government regulation, called the Dodd-Frank Wall Street reform bill "over-the-top," and promised if elected to repeal ObamaCare. Michele praised the Tea Party and described it as a "wide swath of America coming together...to take the country back."

Yet, despite articulating strong opinions on varied subjects, Michele's gutsy and possibly prophetic proclamation that Barack Obama is a "one-term" president wasn't nearly as courageous as a pro-life statement she made with unabashed personal conviction and commitment to truth.

What could be worse for pro-choice America than a woman with a brood of children, smiling and firmly proclaiming without obfuscation, wavering, or uncertainty the following belief: "I am 100 percent pro-life. I've given birth to five babies, and I've taken 23 foster children into my home. I believe in the dignity of life from conception until natural death. I believe in the sanctity of human life."

Michele Bachmann bore five biological children and didn't stop there -- she and husband Marcus welcomed into their home the at-risk offspring of other mothers who also chose to grant their babies the gift of life. Not only that, but the Minnesota congresswoman also shared her commitment to the "dignity of life from conception until natural death," which is a view that -- especially on the cusp of ObamaCare, the costs of which are sure to run over budget -- is not only ill-timed, but most assuredly unappreciated.

Moreover, Bachmann openly proclaimed as "sacred" and "holy" something which, after almost 40 years of unrelenting indoctrination, many Americans have now come to accept as a clump of cells -- another statement sure to be considered unconscionable in pro-choice circles.

Michele placed a target squarely on her own back when she dared to tie the right to life to the Declaration of Independence, demoted government from bestowing "inalienable" rights, mentioned the Creator, and emphatically declared "only God can give [life] and only God" should take it away.

In conclusion, Mrs. Bachmann even managed to inject sanity into the conversation when she noted that 2% of rape/incest abortions "get all the attention" while 98% of convenience-based abortion is "where the real battle" lies in the fight against the unfettered slaughter of the unborn.

As it turned out, the Republican debate provided a public forum for a conservative woman to school enlightened society on what many believe to be the reproductive attitudes of a troglodyte. If Mrs. Bachmann continues to voice such extreme opinions, she will fast become as distasteful to liberals as Sarah Palin, the pro-life mother of a Down syndrome son, whose presence and principles -- especially when toting around what the world deems less-than-perfect offspring -- have made her an object of unrelenting mockery.

For years, Palin has struggled against cruel rumors that Trig, her special needs baby, isn't her and husband Todd's son, but rather daughter Bristol's.

Taking a page from the Demean the Maternal Claims of Pro-Life Women playbook, Michele Bachmann's motherliness is also now being called into question by those who wish to undermine her foster parenting claim, saying, "She makes it sound like she got them at birth and raised them to adulthood, but that's not true."

Following the debate at the Republican Leadership Conference, a CBS News reporter broached the foster parent subject with Michele in what appeared to be an effort to coax the Minnesota congresswoman, who claims she "raised" 23 foster children, into admitting she hosted most of the kids for a limited amount of time.

Those who accept "the right to privacy" as the right to destroy innocent life suddenly have become sticklers on the proper definition of the word "raised."

Although Michele Bachmann has never once implied that she cared for 23 children simultaneously, with grace and poise the congresswoman responded to the inquiry in the following way:

Well in the situation we were in we took children as teenagers. Their family was facing a challenge and they weren't gonna be able to be at home with their parents and we took them in as teenagers and our job was to see that they graduated from high school and were successfully launched into the world.

Challenged further for precise time frames, Michele, who said she considered having each and every child in her home a "privilege," calmly expanded her clarification:

It really varied depending on the children and we've never got into specifics about the children because we always wanted to observe their privacy and that of their families, as I'm sure you can appreciate.

It seems that when pro-life women promote motherhood, those who defend abortion as a "privacy" issue feel more than justified in prying into their personal lives if doing so provides a solid platform upon which to falsely portray a female conservative Christian politician as a fraud.

It's almost certain that Michele Bachmann's parenting experience wouldn't be a topic of discussion if instead of "raising" unwanted children, she shared the opinion that women "facing challenges" would be better off exercising their right to choose in an abortion clinic.

And so, the debate over whether Michele Bachmann raised or did not raise foster children proves once again that liberalism exposes its dark underbelly not so much by what it applauds as by what and whom it attempts to tear down.
