The article below was originally published in November 2012 just after Obama won reelection. The website it was published on, as far as we can tell, no longer exists as it did. There are breadcrumbs of it… but the original has apparently gone the way of the memory hole.
Considering how government tyranny has progressed, we thought it would be good to put this up again now for further consideration.
The points are even more valid today. To put it simply…
‘This Is Not a Government’ By Liberty Legal Foundation
This morning a Christian radio commentator attempt to downplay the devastation Obama will bring to America over the next four years. The commentator was explaining how our government’s checks and balances prevent any president from doing too much damage to our nation. Unfortunately this commentator was assuming that American government still functions as it was intended to function. She was apparently unaware that our government no longer follows its own laws.
It is absolutely true that the Founding Fathers gave us a system of government that should have protected our nation from the excesses of any single president. However, the checks and balances, balance of powers, and other limitations enshrined in the Constitution, have all been ignored by our current government. Those checks and balances disappeared as soon as those in power realized that they could ignore the law and no one would do anything about it. This leaves America vulnerable to any tyrant capable of winning an election.
