CORRUPT POLITICIANS HAVE TRAMPLED OUR CONSTITUTION
AND STOLEN OUR GOVERNMENT AND LIBERTY

Is it time to pull
down the statue of the king?

Peter Schweizer, in his superb book “Throw Them All
Out,” wrote:
“In short, the
Permanent Political Class has clearly figured out
how to extract wealth from the rest of us based
solely on their position and proximity to power. If
you have a seat at the table, you are in for the
feast. If you don’t have a seat at the table, you
are probably on the menu.”
For example,
fabulously wealthy Senator John Kerry (D-MA)
purchased shares of Citigroup (up to $550,000) and
Bank of America ($350,000) right before the
government bailed out the banking industry.
Coincidence or is it insider trading, the legal
graft Congress reserves for itself?
Clarice Feldman
clearly and succinctly
described how an entrenched oligarchy exploits
the American people to increase their own power and
wealth:
1. The media and
the Democrats are joined at the hip and have created
a “hereditary celebrity class.”
One of the
fastest ways to celebrity is to be the child of a
politician or a well connected political operative
e.g. Meghan McCain, Mika Brzezinski, or Chelsea
Clinton.
2. The political
class views the taxpayers as cash cows to be milked
for their own benefit and the benefit of their
friends, children and contributors.
The Department of
Energy blew even more money, a $1.4 billion loan
guarantee, on a Robert Kennedy Jr. project Bright
Source than it did on the already well-known
Solyndra fiasco.
3. The Supreme
Court action on the three ObamaCare Cases on which
it granted certiori might well encapsulate the
principle that we citizens are, in fact cash cows
there for the federal government to milk.
Susan Seven-Sky
v. Holder, the D.C. Circuit Court opinion earlier
this month
upholding the individual mandate in ObamaCare,
took the path of brutal candor. If any limits on
congressional power exist, they are invisible to the
naked eye. Nowhere in any of the cases on ObamaCare
does there seem to be a serious argument that the
individual mandate is an intolerable intrusion on
economic liberty.
There is also
something fishy going on in the state of
The Obama’s
trampling of the Constitution, endorsed by Congress,
appears to reach all the way down to the New
Hampshire Secretary of State’s office and the Ballot
Law Commission.
In October 2007,
Obama was not required to affirm that he met the
Constitutional requirements outlined in Article II,
Section I, Clause 5 of the Constitution and, at
least now, New Hampshire RSA 655:47,
Declaration of Candidacy, stating:
“I,
_______________, swear under penalties of perjury
that I am qualified to be a candidate for president
of the United States pursuant to article II, section
1, clause 4 (sic, should be Clause 5) of the United
States Constitution, which states, “No person except
a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United
States, at the time of the adoption of this
Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of
President; neither shall any person be eligible to
that office who shall not have attained to the age
of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a
resident within the United States.”
The Declaration
of Candidacy, New Hampshire RSA 655:47, signed by
Obama in October 2007
makes no mention of the Constitutional
requirements for the Presidency.
Did
At a hearing of
the New Hampshire Ballot Law Commission on November
18, 2011 challenging Obama’s eligibility, his social
security fraud and forgery, the commission dismissed
the complaint.
If all members of
the commission voting on November 18, 2011 are
Democrats, like New Hampshire Secretary of State
William Gardner, then it appears to be a
violation of
All of the above
follows a familiar pattern; endemic political
corruption sanctioned by a compliant mainstream
media designed to maintain the status quo, that is,
treating ordinary Americans as cash cows to be
milked by politicians for their own benefit and the
benefit of their friends, children and contributors.
To preserve their
lavish lifestyles, politicians continue to ignore
and dispense misinformation about the greatest fraud
ever perpetrated on the American people.
Obama is,
according to the
U.S. Constitution, an illegal President, who has
committed
felonies both before and after occupying the
Oval Office.
I have received
hundreds of emails from readers, all of whom have
written one or more letters to their members of
Congress, only to be arrogantly ignored or
ridiculed.
It seems no
longer possible to seek the redress of grievances by
petitioning Congress or expect its members to uphold
the Constitution and champion equal treatment under
the law.
The US Congress
is dominated by incompetence, ambition and avarice.
It has made itself a tyrant and has become a danger
to the survival of the republic.
The Declaration
of Independence states:
“Governments are
instituted among Men, deriving their just powers
from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any
Form of Government becomes destructive of these
ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to
abolish it…”
Ordinary
Americans are feeling disenfranchised and helpless
by politicians practicing elective despotism.
By its actions,
the corrupt permanent political class is leaving the
American people no other option than outright
rebellion to take back our government.
