THE NARRATIVE AND POLITICAL CORRECTNESS


Threats to freedom of speech, writing and action, though often trivial in isolation, are cumulative in their effect and, unless checked, lead to a general disrespect for the rights of the citizen. -George Orwell

  1. There exists the very real and frightening possibility that Obama, with his willingness to subvert laws without Congressional, American public and, of course, media consequence (see ObamaCare), will make the calculation that he doesn't have to follow the 22nd Amendment (Presidential term limits) either. Obama: "I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT."

    A little background on this scenario from Freedom Outpost (December 8, 2013) http://freedomoutpost.com/2013/12/obama-planning-third-term-president-congress-able-stop/

    "A third term for President Obama? Impossible you say. Unconstitutional you say...So how can President Obama seek a third term?...even after his re-election, President Obama was still attempting to solidify his 47% dependency base -- as has now been further evidenced by his support of current populist issues such as the striking McDonald's workers, his calling for a increase in the minimum wage, extension of the unemployment entitlements due to expire at the end of this month, plus amnesty for illegal aliens. You can add to this his continued political campaigning while serious problems such as the destruction of the private health care insurance industry, nuclear proliferation by Iran and North Korea, pending debt limit debate, record unemployment, etc., go unattended...Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, (R-VA) "President Obama has blatantly disregarded the Constitution's mandate to faithfully execute the laws. He has changed key provisions in Obamacare without congressional approval, failed to enforce our immigration and drug laws, and ignored his constitutional duties for the sake of politics."...Congressman Trey Gowdy (R-SC) raised the point that if President Obama can violate other laws of his choosing, can he also violate election laws? And if so, is there anything Congress can do about it?...Yes, as we have seen, this president can and does violate enacted legislation with impunity. Is there anything Congress can do about it? No. Is Congressional impeachment a possibility? No, not under the present control of the Senate. So, if Congress is helpless, what remedy remains?...the only remedy available rests in power of the ballot box...So is a third term for President Obama a distinct possibility? You betcha!"
