Obama and the Constitution

Fraud..

That's why I am encouraging everyone to vote for Obama.

After he wins in 2012

He is going to hold Israel's Zionist feet to the fire and force them to change.

And he will have 4 nice long years to do it. :clap2:



Obama's second term is going to be great for America.

Israel..................not so much :eusa_angel:

Sunni man didnt REALLY say those things did he? If he did,I know he was just being sarcastic.He knows Obama is zionest puppet.He has to know that.
 
I don't mean to derail the thread but Bush was on par with Obama on accomplishments and Mitt is just as bad off... Let’s be honest, Mitt ran his state into the ground with one of the biggest grabs of power in HC that any state has ever done, then he made the rest of the country pay for it at about 500 million a year so he didn’t have to raise taxes in his state.

As far as I know Mitts record in business is not all that stellar either, he in fact did nothing that most random people picked up of the street couldn't do.

Mitt never served in the armed forces and as far as I can tell he never held a job that didn't pay him millions for less than 15 hours a week of "work."

My point is not to defend Obama because Obama is in fact a stupid human being with almost no understanding of the constitution, but almost everything that proves Obama has a stunning lack of understanding of the constitution Mitt supported or even did as Governor… Presidents today seem to be the anti American, like both sides have pushed so far from our rule of law that to debate who is worse has lost all meaning.

Who cares if Mitt made a bunch of money, he has ZERO plans to cut with the budget he offered up, in fact his budget would slightly add to the deficit spending Obama is currently doing if I remember correctly.


deflection

let's talk about OBAMA and his ignorance of the Constitution.
 

Only thing you left out there is you need to put Bushs head right next to Obamas in the middle between him and Stalin and that would be an accurate picture there.:lol: People easily forget that till Obama came along,how terrible the econony really was back then and how Bush wrecked the country so badly as well only because Obama has made things much worse than he did.

Its only because Obama has made things much worse than he did expanding what Bush got started, that people easily forget that four years ago Bush had the most appalling presidency in the history of the united states.I still remember everywhere I went hearing people say-"Obama sure has quite a mess to clean up.Bush has left him such a mess he is going to have to have at least a second term to clean it up."Only problem is he did not clean it up.

Bush has not been and is not an anti-capitalist. All those sorry mofos in the poster were or they are now!

You have your head up your ass anyway with your "9-11 inside job" bullshit!
 
If left wingers would just be honest about the way they view the Constitution, the political argument would be a lot simpler but stealthy left wingers can't be honest about their agenda. For the last hundred years the radical left viewed the Constitution as a quaint old document that had little relevance in modern society. FDR's hand picked left leaning Supreme Court had little respect for the Constitution and today at least one left wing Justice told an emerging country not to model their own constitution on the greatest document ever written, the US Constitution.

"Rich with out of context quotes..."

As you inadvertently point out by the extended version of the Obama quote....I was totally within context.

Had you more than a passing understanding of the Constitution, the Framer's intentions, and the Obama 'perversions' of same, you would have understood that.


If you had considered the meanings of both, the argument that you attempt to advance would fail before it started, instead of starting before it failed.


Since instructing you seems to have become an avocation for me, let me continue:

1. The aim of the Constitution is to restrict the powers of government to enslave.

2. The aim of Progressives is to insist that government take from some citizens so as to purchase the loyalty of others, i.e., 'spread the wealth.'


You remain a compendium of fatuity….


I give you permission to copy my post so as to give the impression that you have actually learned something.
"THAT IS TO SAY" you know the quote was taken out of context, in fact the exact opposite context you used, but you can't stop yourself from being a pompous ass. :lol:

Must I continue to instruct you???


Watch casefully, if woefully, as I eviscerate your precis....

1. From the OP..
“In a Sept. 6, 2001, interview with Chicago Public Radio station WBEZ-FM, Mr. Obama noted that the Supreme Court under Chief Justice Earl Warren "never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth and sort of more basic issues of political and economic justice in this society," and "to that extent as radical as I think people tried to characterize the Warren Court, it wasn't that radical." He also noted that the Court "didn't break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution, at least as it has been interpreted." That is to say, he noted that the U.S. Constitution as written is only a guarantee of negative liberties from government -- and not an entitlement to a right to welfare or economic justice.”
Obama's 'Redistribution' Constitution - WSJ.com


Now, a short quiz:

2. Is the OP a critique of Obama...
Yes or no?

3. In the item above, is Obama chastising the Warren Court as not going far enough...
Yes or no?

3. Does Obama believe that the US Constitution places restriction on government, i.e., limit it to 'negative liberties,'...
Yes or no?

4. By extension, is Obama in favor of 'positive liberties,' i.e., naming what government must give citizens...
Yes or no?

5. Is not the above encapsulated in the phrases 'spread the wealth,' and 'social justice'...
Yes or no?

6. Since government does not earn money, but only has what it gets from citizens, doesn't this suggest where Obama intends to get the money, i.e., confiscatory taxation...
Yes or no?

Now....you may continue to perform as the poster child for political ignorance, but try to do in an honest fashion: since the correct answer to each of the above is a resounding "YES," clearly my quote is in context.


Now...
a. admit you were wrong.

b. beg my forgiveness

c. print out your posts and have them for lunch.

Chop chop.
The more wrong you are, the more pompous you get!

1. No

2. No

3. No

4. No

5. No

6. No

Only someone who doesn't think for themselves can read the full quote and answer yes to your questions.

Obama clearly said that the Warren court was not radical which only the most dishonest person would change that to say he wanted the Warren court to "go farther," especially after he made the point that it was wrong for the civil rights movement to depend on the court!!! That is precisely why you dishonestly left out the true context of the full quote.

OBAMA: I think the tragedies of the civil rights movement was, because the civil rights movements became so court-focused, I think that there was a tendency to lose track of the political and community organizing, and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalitions of power through which you bring about redistributive change. And, in some ways, we still suffer from that.

In Defense of the Elastic Clause of the Constitution

February 27, 2014 by J. Christian Adams

American-Constitution-450x336.jpg


If college students listened to Mark Levin or Rush Limbaugh, they would receive a better American history education than they are getting from their professors. I recently spoke at Emory University, where one student defended all of President Obama’s unconstitutional actions by invoking the Elastic Clause of the Constitution.

...

But he wasn’t speaking of something quite so stiff and formal. He wasn’t referring to something that required broad assent. He was referring the Elastic Clause that allows the president to swiftly respond to needs as they arise – sort of like Mussolini and Mugabe did.

He was serious. He really believed the Elastic Clause was real. But the constitutional literacy of a different student was even worse. With a straight face, she defended the exercise of executive power and the issuance of executive orders as constitutional because of the inaction of Congress.

“It’s part of the Constitution that if the Congress doesn’t act, then the president can issue executive orders to fix something,” was her argument.

Even more frightening, the person saying this is an officer of the campus Democrats. A little totalitarian in training.

...

I explained to the students that a written Constitution, free from the phony Elastic Clause and power for a president to issue edicts, is what keeps them free. It is what lets them have fun and have a good life. Structural constraints on the power of government allow people to experience joy, worship God, build dreams and fulfill potential. Our Constitution does not have an Elastic Clause for a very good reason. It was established to be inelastic absent the consent of three quarters of states. It was established to lay down fundamental ironclad restraints on the power of government, especially the executive branch.

Some are trying to redefine freedom away from this ideal and toward freedom from want.

That it is becoming fashionable to reject our particularly American version of freedom deserves an overpowering response.


Citing the Elastic Clause could indeed justify a wide range of administration actions, except for one problem – it doesn’t exist.
 
1. Although Obama claims to be a constitutional scholar, he has never published a single scholarly article or book, although he was a lecturer at the University of Chicago. He subscribes to the Progressive liberal view that the Constitution “ is not a static but rather a living document, and must be read in the context of an ever changing world.” Got a problem with the Constitution? - USATODAY.com


2. He did not teach, and seems to have no knowledge of the structural aspects of the Constitution, such as the separation of powers, or of the nature of executive power.

Well, now....that was a clever post!


As you are clearly "nobody,".....you obviously care a great deal, that's why
you subscribed to the thread.


I don't know if you are "rich," but time and again you serve as the butt of so many posts....you are certainly "thick."



Write soon!




And remember: you and that avi- you'll never live down your reputations.
 
Abe Lincoln was a progressive also, if he were to survive and was not assassinated, one of his first major initiatives he had readied was a plan to ban alcohol like they did in 1920.
