Obama’s Willful Violation of the Constitution
Yesterday, we, at The National Patriot, asked YOU, our readers and the American people to take action. We asked this in the wake of Obama’s “recess” appointments.
These appointments took place while the Senate remained in Pro Forma session.
Obama’s actions are in contempt of Congress.
Obama’s actions are a willful violation of the United States Constitution.
Obama’s actions are a direct violation of his oath of office.
We thought it would be interesting to see what some Congressional members are saying about Obama’s actions in regard to the “recess” appointments.
“Once again we’re seeing presidential overreach. This is not what our founding fathers had in mind for this great nation.”
Congressman Allen West
__________
“The president put his own political future and the radical views of his far-left base ahead of constitutional government. The president will have to answer to the American people for this power grab.”
Sen. Orin Hatch
__________
“I think the president wanted to pick a really big fight, and he has surely chosen one. This is a direct affront to the American people and the constitutional system of government that we have.”
Sen. Mike Lee

LAWSUIT FILED AGAINST OBAMA – TNP CALL TO ACTION
BREAKING NEWS!!!
This morning, The National Patriot has learned of a fresh new lawsuit filed against Obama!!
The ACLJ (American Center for Law and Justice) is filing a lawsuit against Obama regarding the 4 “Recess” appointments made earlier this week.
Yesterday, in my article “Emperor Obama Has Decreed…Let It Be So!!!” I stated that Obama seemed to have made himself an Emperor rather than President. In that article, I outlined how the Constitution had been ignored by these appointments.
Apparently, the ACLJ is in complete agreement.
Today, on their website, the ACLJ quotes Obama’s Deputy Solicitor General, Neal Katyal in 2010 as stating, “The — the recess appointment power can work in — in a recess. I think our office has opined the recess has to be longer than 3 days. And — and so, it is potentially available to avert the future crisis that — that could — that could take place with respect to the board.”
Therein, as I wrote yesterday, is the exact problem.
The Senate is NOT in recess.
The Senate IS in a Pro Forma session.
In a Pro Forma session, a Senator must appear on the floor of the Senate, even if only for seconds, once every three days.
This is precisely what has occurred since the REST of the Senate went home just days before Christmas.
For Obama to make ANY recess appointments during a Pro Forma session of the Senate IS a direct violation of the United States Constitution.
PERIOD!
In violation of the Constitution are the appointments of Richard Cordray as the Director of the new (as of last July) Consumer Protection Bureau and 3 appointments, Deputy Labor Secretary Sharon Block, union lawyer Richard Griffin and NLRB counsel Terence Flynn, to the National Labor Relations Board.
What has occurred, because of these 4 appointments, is a Constitutional Crisis.
While some may believe this to be rather strong language, it is far from it. In fact, it is a simple reflection of reality.
The President of the United States has willfully violated the Constitution of the United States and his sworn vow to uphold it.
Upon inauguration, a president vows the following:
“I, (insert name) do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”
The National Patriot submits, that should Obama be allowed to “get away” with this willful disregard of the Constitution and his sworn vow to defend the Constitution, any president henceforth could do so also.
In proceeding with these appointments, done while the senate was still in session, Obama has not only defied the United States Constitution but he is also in contempt of congress.
If this is NOT a Constitutional Crisis, I for one would certainly like to know what WOULD constitute such.
If you think calling this a Constitutional Crisis is strong, what I am about to say will shock you.
There can be only ONE response to a President who WILLFULLY violates the Constitution.
IMPEACHMENT.
Therefore, The National Patriot calls upon you, our readers to act.
1) Share this article everywhere you can.
2) Send a link to this article to YOUR congressmen and women AND to your senators…REGARDLESS of their party affiliation.
3) DEMAND articles of impeachment be brought forth against Obama.
A list of “All Govt. Contacts” can be found at the top of our blogroll on our home page or by clicking here.
In our opinion, any Congressperson or Senator who does NOT take a stand FOR impeachment is also in violation of THEIR oath of office as doing nothing DOES nothing to defend the Constitution of the United States of America.
This, friends and Patriots, is a SEMINAL moment in our nation’s history.
This President, Obama, cannot be allowed to willfully violate our constitution without recourse. Simply nullifying these UNCONSTITUTIONAL appointments is not enough.
This MUST be dealt with in the strongest manner possible and as quickly as possible lest a dangerous precedent be set for all future Presidents and Members of Congress.

Well, well, well…HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
While I’m not big on resolutions I WILL make you this vow…Throughout this most important year I will NOT let up ONE LITTLE BIT on the liberal/socialist crowd.
We have a LOT of work to do but that DOESN’T mean we can’t take time out for a laugh or two…at the liberal’s expense.
That said…
It’s Friday and guess what?
I’m fuming.
This year we start with a guy who I am reasonably sure is plenty happy his first name is not Barry.
Congressman John Dingle (D(imwit) MI) had THIS brilliant comment last week: “Romney is the only fellow in the United States who appears to think that the Volt is an idea whose time has not come. Clearly it has not come to him. The Volt is selling like hotcakes.”
If by “Hotcakes” Dingle means THEY KEEP BURSTING INTO FLAMES…he might be onto something. As it is…he may well just be ON something.
Oblamesomeoneelse poured something like 49.5 BILLION dollars of OUR money into what is now GOVERNMENT MOTORS and proclaimed that 1 million electric cars would soon be cruising American roads.
If you break it down, every Chevy Volt SOLD so far has cost the American taxpayer…$240,000.00!!!!!
There have been about 7,500 SOLD and after Dingle’s rather STUPID statement…CHEVY ANNOUNCED THEY ARE RECALLING 8,000 VOLTS BECAUSE THEY ARE ROLLING BARBEQUES!!!!!
What the Iowa Results REALLY Mean
Imagine how different the next few debates are going to look to Rick Santorum. He’s going to be at or near center stage and he’ll actually be asked questions.
On the other hand, imagine how much the same the next few debates are going to look to Jon Huntsman who just found out that when voters in Iowa aren’t picking corn, they’re arranging the podium order for the next few debates!
The OTHER Rick…Perry…will have the best seat in the house for the next few debates…The best seat in his OWN house as he heads back to Texas to reassess his campaign. Nobody goes home to “reassess” and then comes back to be a player in the race.
Want to know why?
Because those who donate money are now reassessing THEIR strategy and right now, they’re looking toward investing in center stage Rick over living room Rick.
Michele Bachmann has a problem.
Game On… New Hampshire is Next!!
Last night and for that matter, into early this morning, Iowa had their say and as horse races go, this one was a corker.
The GOP field broke into 2 distinct tiers and the results weren’t all that surprising considering the up and down ride over the last couple of weeks.
Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann finished last unless of course, you count Huntsman who not only didn’t compete in Iowa but dismissed Iowa’s contribution to the process less than a week ago.
In the actual vote count from the Iowa Caucus, the win went to Mitt Romney by less than 14 votes with Rick Santorum coming in second and Ron Paul 3rd.
Newt Gingrich, who a mere 2 weeks ago was running away with it finished 4th.
Now, given the numbers, who had the best night?
Ron Paul’s Connection to Doom
Much of what we have seen regarding various GOP candidates and what I refer to as smelly shoes in their closets, is old news. It’s 
stuff that happened a decade or two ago. Sometimes longer ago than that.
This isn’t old news.
This is FRESH stink and it’s a stink Ron Paul and his Ronulan Paulbot lemmings are going to have a tough time explaining away.
On July 6th, 2010, Ron Paul co-wrote an article with Barney Frank for the Huffington Post regarding the slashing of a trillion dollars from national defense spending. At a time when our national defense is being weakened by a president who supports our enemies and turns his back on our allies, Ron Paul joins forces with Barney Frank to slash defense spending?
Yep but that’s just the tip of the proverbial iceberg.
Together, FrankenPaul, issued the “Sustainable Defense Task Force.”
This “Think tank” of progressive liberal non thinkers was “Tasked” with rendering our defense capabilities null and void for the most part but disguised as a “cost cutting” fiscal task force.
Disguising his true intentions is a Ron Paul trademark.
Taking This Country Back…Only the Begining
Today is January 1st, 2012.
The beginning of a new year is here. A new calendar has been hung and resolutions made.
At The National Patriot, we are ready. Ready NOT to make resolutions but to remain resolute.
No longer can we say, “2012 is coming” because it is here. Now, we look toward November, which indeed is coming but we also know there is much to be done between now and that important month and an election which will begin to reverse the advances in socialism and the misguided ideology of liberals.
The White House is one thing – but, in your individual states, there are races which MUST be closely watched and supported.
It is not enough to just retake the White House, conservatives must also hold the House and regain the Senate.

Well, this is it, my last opportunity of 2011 to let it out.
One would think, or at least hope, that between Christmas and New Years, liberals could GIVE IT A REST but…NOOOOOOOO……
Oh well, that’s okay because guess what all you liberal/socialists???
I AIN’T TAKING A DAY OFF EITHER!!!
Get ready…It’s Friday and…
I’m fuming.
Over in Maryland, a small community has for YEARS, been flying an American flag in their roundabout…one of those circular traffic disasters emulating the British system.
They drive on the wrong side of the road over there which is why roundabouts don’t work so well over here.
That’s my story and I’m sticking with it.
Anyway…
Is THIS the Writing on the Socialist Wall??
Who didn’t see THIS coming?
There is now some talk about Obama dumping Biden from the 2012 ticket and replacing him with Hillary.
First off, Obama is in trouble and he knows it. His base is fleeing. He needs to add someone who socialists want. Hillary fills the ticket. She ran hard against Obama in ’08 and there seem to be a lot of liberals who would rather have HER in the White House than HIM.
The weirdest part of the scuttlebutt at this point is that Biden and Hillary would swap jobs.
Can you even IMAGINE Joe Biden as Secretary of State? Seriously, at this point, the guy can shoot off his mouth with all sorts of inane and crazy blather – and other than making for some entertaining sound bites, it’s harmless. But as Secretary of State…he would be sticking our national foot in HIS mouth on the WORLD stage and I suspect, that within days of taking the job, Biden would manage to INSULT at least HALF of our allies.
Let’s get back to the VP Hillary thing.
