Obama: Self-declared Dictator
While the tyrannical pronouncement went largely unreported by the Obama-media, Barack Obama declared himself de-facto dictator of the United States of America on Wednesday, possibly signaling the end of the United States as we know it.
In what can only be described as a blatant, totalitarian and authoritarian abuse of power, Barack Obama, decreed that Richard Cordray would be the head of his so-called Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and he made his declaration without the advice and consent of the Senate, and, by doing so, he clearly violated Article 2, Section 2 of the United States Constitution.
But do not be deceived, the Cordray decree is not just another run of the mill Obama abuse of power.
Through this seemingly insignificant but illegal act of defiance, Barack Obama stopped sticking his toe in the water and finally took the plunge and declared Congress irrelevant, and as long as Congress accepts its newly decreed irrelevance, nothing stands in Barack Obama's way. That's how tyrannies start!
We can't allow that to happen. The disease that is the Obama administration must be stopped and IMPEACHMENT is the only cure!
There's no doubt that Obama, by any sane person's reckoning, has crossed the line. And yet, our elected officials are still all talk and no action. What gives?
After blustering and pontificating that Obama's actions were "an extraordinary and entirely unprecedented power grab" that "would have a devastating effect on the checks and balances that are enshrined in our Constitution," John Boehner cowardly rolled over and said; "I expect the courts will find the appointment to be illegitimate."
Excuse us Mr. Boehner? Wait just a minute. The Constitution is clear and your Constitutional duty is clear. And simply talking tough and punting your Constitutional duty over to liberal activist judges does not excuse you from doing your duty.
Barack Obama is not a king or a monarch. He is not our dictator and when the man or woman occupying the Oval Office violates the Constitution, the remedy is IMPEACHMENT and the jurisdiction to impeach lies with you, not the courts!
Mitch McConnell did no better. All he could muster was feckless outrage and say that Obama had "arrogantly circumvented the American people" and his decree "fundamentally endangers the Congress’s role in providing a check on the excesses of the executive branch."
Just words... nothing but words.
But make no mistake, our founding fathers are rolling over in their graves over this dictatorial and tyrannical power grab and we are once again left to ask: What must this pretender do... how many times must this tin-pot dictator abuse the Constitution before our elected officials do what must be done to preserve our Republic and push to impeach this imposter and remove him from the office that he usurped?

Is this meant as satire? Hard to be sure if its sincere or mere sarcasm.
It's not sincere in the slightest.
Dubya made 171 recess appointments, Patterson.
Obama has made 29.
Were was your howling outrage then?
And yet leading the country into an eight-year war on a lie is A-OK.
If he is now dictator could we stop the republican primary?
I'd love it if Obama were impeached....but not for the reasons cited here.
I want him impeached for the murder of U.S. citizen Anwar al-Awlaki and his teenage son, both of whom were killed in drone attacks without being charged with a crime.
Obama should not only be impeached for this, he should be imprisoned, as murder is a crime.
Of course, Republicans don't care about civil rights; they LOVE it when the government they claim to hate so much kills people.
I've shed no tears for al-Awlaki, and I don't plan to start now. I'll take a targeted attack on an actual terrorist over a reckless, wasteful, endless, illogical war any day of the week.
And if we're going to round up and lock up every President who ever had someone killed under questionable circumstances, then I hope you have a shovel and a cell big enough for 44 bodies. In the meantime I hope the purity parade doesn't help push an even worse option into the Oval office.
Too bad the morons who claim to love the sainted constitution can't be bothered to read, you know, all of it.
From Article II, Section 2:
"The President shall have power to fill up all vacancies that may happen during the recess of the Senate, by granting commissions which shall expire at the end of their next session."
Frankly, I'd like to have Obama impeached for all kinds of War crimes including the assassination of al-Awlaki, the false imprisonment of Pfc Bradley Manning, starting numerous Wars, including the one ongoing with Iran, etc.
These foolish ridiculous capulous RWFs are just shiney shiney distractions for credulous brainwashed conservatives... to keep their gnat-like attention focused on racist non-issues, whilst the 1% rob & plunder the nation.
thanks for nothing, chumps.
PS If calling all Presidents into account for illegal assassinations means impeaching every US President, then I am ALL for that, too.
The Great Liberal Socialist has declared himself a dictator?
Excellent! Can I have health care now? How about a less-economically stratified society, more environmental regulation, and an end to imperial wars? Will the Liberal Socialist Dictator be giving me those things soon?
As a good liberal, I'll admit I had some misgivings about a recess appointment when the senate wasn't entirely in recess, but it isn't exactly a high crime.
