Comments on: UPDATE IV: What’s One More Extra-Constitutional Power Grab? (‘Meanwhile, At The Border . . .’) https://barelyablog.com/updated-whats-one-more-extra-constitutional-power-grab/ by ilana mercer Wed, 02 Apr 2025 19:29:09 +0000 hourly 1 By: My RON PAUL i https://barelyablog.com/updated-whats-one-more-extra-constitutional-power-grab/comment-page-1/#comment-23199 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 05:22:56 +0000 http://barelyablog.com/?p=52674#comment-23199 Another step into the land of the absurd: states are “allowed” to charge higher tuition to a citizen of NEW Mexico than a trespasser from old Mexico!, the Supreme Court declares that states are obligated to give benefits to trespassers, the “Justice Department” forbids states from enforcing Congressional rules, the “Supreme Court” allows multiple citizenships whereby people can vote and serve in Armed forces etc. of multiple countries … and now King Messiah Obama is going to nullify law entirely. Sadly, Congress is a doormat that allows its own authority to be rebuked.

Last week, the Washington Post had a piece of journalistic self-adulation by Woodward and Bernstein on how they “saved the republic” by helping to dump Nixon. No sir, you just created a sideshow spectacle while the “republic” was self-destructing. Nixon got “caught” with a third rate burglary while Congress REFUSED to impeach him over misappropriating money to conduct a SECRET WAR and having Cabinet officers lie to Congress under oath about it (eventual cost – 2 million lives!). But beyond burglaries and blow jobs, Congress will not bother to stop Courts, bureaucrats, and Presidents from usurping power.

Constitution – did we once have a Constitution??

He is gaining more support because the help given to immigrants is greater than the help given to native-born dutch families who are struggling. This is resented by many and hopefully Geert Wilders will come in in the next election in September with a greater majority. He is in constant danger because of his anti-Islam stance, and in many of our minds he is our Dutch hero, prepared to endanger himself for a truly historical Dutch population with all the traditions and charms of Netherlanders.

[How nice to hear from readers in The Netherlanders; thanks.]

After the European & US debt bombs go off, the illegals will be leaving. One way or another. The demican-republicrat pols who protected them will also be dealt with.

El Presidente’s latest torture session with the American people truly has us crying out for deliverance, and most folks believe- and rightly so that Mitt Romney is no Moses. So prepare next perhaps for Obama Care or at least a watered down version of it, and if that doesn’t suit you, the man Rush Limbaugh & Sean Hannity called a conservative in 2008 will be happily obliged to continue the vasectomy of the constitution and freedom. But don’t look at this latest pogrom of the American construction worker as something new, it already happened once upon a time way back in nineteen-hundred eighty six.

Has John Boehner lost the ability to speak? No doubt he doesn’t want to offend the Hispanics.

Of course he can flout the Constitution. Democrats don’t care. Republicans wish they could do it too. The public is clueless. The average shnook doesn’t know the difference in the
Constitution and the Declaration of Independance or the Magna Charta.

Romans have accepted the barbarians on the Empire´s territory under the hospitalitas (hospitality) system and in few decades the Roman government has lost the Western provinces. Are we watching an historical repetition? Unfortunately I think so.
