Barack Obama: Dictator in Chief?
Obama's 'abuse of power' threatens to shut down Senate
CALLING GIL DAVIS, ATTORNEY AT LAW
Public Advocate President Eugene Delgaudio says "The
President's own words in plain English spoken in speech after
speech in recent days seem plainly directed at Senators and
Congress that they have been disbanded and matter nothing to
him.
He knows they are not in recess and simply out of town.
But he unilaterallly declares them in "recess" and appoints people
to public office without their voting or review of them. These are
important regulatory and executive powers outside the
Constitution."
Human Events says
Key Republican Senators are bracing for legislative battles
and Constitutional challenges to President Barack Obama's
unprecedented end-run around Congress to install several
controversial political appointees.
Obama announced the decision Wednesday to make the so-called
recess appointments -- even though the Senate is not in recess --
putting Richard Cordray in charge of a contentious new consumer
protection agency and also naming three appointments to the
National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) - Sharon Block, Richard
Griffin and Terence F. Flynn.
"Business as we know it in the Senate is over for this
administration in terms of accomplishing anything legislatively or
finding any cooperation from this side of the aisle," said Sen.
John Barrasso (R. -Wyo.). "He has poisoned the well."
"Apparently, advise and consent called for in the Constitution
doesn't apply to this Chicago-style politician. He's more
interested in rewarding his friends than living under the law
Americans need to abide by," Barrasso said.
Congress is not in "recess", "Republicans have kept the
Congress in a pro forma session, gaveling in for a few minutes of
official business every three days." says Human Events.
Public Advocate asks: Where are the leadership of both houses
on this? Where are the Presidential candidates on this topic?
Articles of impeachment drawn up and voted upon by Congress
seem the only legal remedy as some commentators say going to court
would result in a court decision that "Congress must respond with
impeachment" (sic).
Then and only then could or would a court get involved to
address the illegality.
But then that's just commentary. Where is the response from
real solid legal authorities like the genuine lawyer who was able
to simply and elegantly show that no President is above the
law.
That man took then-President Bill Clinton to court over a
sexual assault of an innocent woman. And the Supreme Court voted 9
to Zero that "no president is above the law" and, indeed, Bill
Clinton had to face the court trial and was brought to justice in
that case.
The man who headed the team that brought a President to justice is
Gil Davis.
Where is attorney Gil Davis when you need him?
