Imperial PresidentThe Man Who Would Rather Be King Obama –Image: Mulinus@Twiiter

(Zero Hedge) While the stats of the Union remain unremarkable at best it would appear despite the rancor in Washington and online President Obama will ‘get his way’ whatever it takes–emphasizing his intentions at the SOTU, to ‘go it alone’ according to The Wall Street Journal and use his unilateral presidential authority, bypassing Congress when he determines that it is necessary, to an extent not seen in his previous State of the Union lectures.

Why will Members of Congress even show up to listen to another one of Obama’s lectures to them?

So much for three co-equal branches of a limited federal government.

House Speaker John Boehner Says ‘We Have The Constitution’ Then Exercise It!

Boehner Constitution

House Speaker John Boehner posts on his Facebook timeline on Wednesday:

“President Obama says he has a pen and a phone he can use to bypass Congress. Pens and phones are nice but we have the Constitution…”

So when will this Congress exercise its Constitutional duty pursuant to Article II Section 4 and put a stop to Obama?

Supreme Ct Justice Sotomayor, Deals Another Setback to ObamaCare’s Contraception Mandate

Contraception MandateObamaCare’s Contraception Mandate –Image: KIII-TV Corpus Christi

(Businessweek) The Obama Administration has been temporarily blocked by Associate Supreme Ct Justice Sonia Sotomayor in a two sentence Order, from forcing the Denver and Baltimore Chapters of the Little Sisters of the Poor to comply with ObamaCare’s Contraception Mandate, which was facing Millions of Dollars in fines for their refusal to comply with the controversial federal mandate in violation of their Constitutional Rights.

On the 29 September, I wrote here that the ‘Little Sisters of the Poor’ an international congregation of Catholic Women, was founded in 1839 by Saint Jeanne Jugan and is presently serving the poor in over 30 countries around the world but this may all come to an end in the United States if the Obama Administration which has demonstrated its hostility towards Christians gets their way.

Justice Sotomayor was nominated to the Supreme Ct by President Obama in 2009 to replace retiring Justice David Souter, Sotomayor gave the Obama Adminitration until Friday, 03 January to file a responsive pleading in the case.

The decision by Justice Sotomayor was not the only action taken by Federal Courts on the last day of 2013, there were also Orders issued by three separate Circuit Courts on Tuesday ahead of ObamaCare taking effect today.

Federal Judge: NSA Spying on Americans “Almost Orwellian” Almost Certainly Violates Constitution

NSA SpyingNSA Spying on Americans –Image: Alex Jones@Twitter

(The BLT) The Natl Security Agency’s bulk collection of telephone records likely violates the privacy rights of  individual Americans, a federal judge in Washington, DC ruled today in the matter under the caption of Klayman, et al -v- Obama, et al Case No(s) 13-0851 and 13-0881

Describing the government’s intrusive actions “almost Orwellian” USDC Judge Richard Leon found the challengers in lawsuits filed in Washington, likely to succeed on their 4th Amendment privacy claims and may go forward.

In June I wrote here that Obama who claimed to be a former Constitutional Law Professor, attempting to defend the NSA spying on Americans said (in another one of his rambling answers) during an interview on PBS, “Occasionally there are going to be check-points (such as in Nazi Germany, I digress) they may be intrusive…It is transparent, that is why we set up the (secret) FISA Court.”

Nothing Is Beyond Our Reach

(FOX News) The U.S. National Reconnaissance Office launched a new spy satellite last evening on ‘Mission NROL-39’ and the new tag line and logo are quite an eye opener.

“Nothing Is Beyond Our Reach.”

Isn’t that just a comforting thought, after all we’ve learned about the NSA spying on Americans together with the latest overreach by the TSA and Dept of Homeland Security recently announced practice changes.

CNN Piers Morgan: More Americans Signed Petition to Have Me Deported Than Enrolled in ObamaCare

(NewsBusters) Has President Obama now lost Piers Morgan?

Consider this Tweet the Liberal Lefty CNN host sent out on Wednesday saying:

“Considerably more Americans signed a petition to have me deported, than enrolled in ObamaCare. I’d start panicking Mr. President.”

For those who may have forgotten, on Christmas Eve 2012 Piers Morgan went on a rant about the bible and Christianity arguing that there needs to be “an amendment to the Bible” for Gay marriage because like the Constitution, the bible is inherently flawed.

Later in December disgraced former  Editor of The Daily Mirror Morgan continued his anti-2nd Amendment rants adding that unless its amended, he may voluntarily leave the United States for greener pastures elsewhere. Shoot he’s still here–I digress.

Last year an online petition at White House.gov was being circulated calling for Morgan’s deportation, it now has 109,334 signatures.

The combined enrollment in ObamaCare via the federal and state exchanges is 106,185

Ouch!

Obama Brings Chilling Effect to Journalism

Thursday, October 10th, 2013

Marxist Takeover of America

(Committee to Protect Journalists) President Obama came into office pledging an ‘open and transparent government’ but he’s fallen short of that promise.

Journalists and transparency activists say the Obama Administration curbs routine disclosure of information and deploys its own media to evade scrutiny by the press. Aggressive prosecution of leakers and ‘whistle-blowers’ of classified information, demonizing FOX News to investigating James Rosen including other reporters and broad electronic surveillance programs deter government sources from speaking to journalists.

Committee to Protect Journalists, has distributed a pattern of actions by the Obama Administration that have chilled the flow of information on issues of great public interest, including matters of national security.

The Obama Administration war on leaks to the press through the use of secret subpoena’s against news organizations, its assertion through prosecution that leaking classified documents to the press is espionage or aiding the enemy and their increased limitations on access to information that is in the public interest–all thwart a free and open discussion necessary to a democracy.
