Obama’s threatened Executive Order amnesty would be a meaningless piece of paper!

.

There is an important principle of law that an unconstitutional act, although masquerading as “law”, “imposes no duties, confers no rights, creates no office, bestows no power or authority on anyone, affords no protection, and justifies no acts performed under it.” ___ 16 Am Jur 2d, Sec 177 late 2d, Sec 256


What this means is, if Obama should write on a piece of paper that millions of aliens who have invaded our borders and are here illegally should meet conditions arbitrarily decided upon by Obama, shall then no longer be subjected to deportation, that piece of paper would have no more legal force and effect than used toilet paper, and would provide no privileges or immunities to illegal entrants, nor protect them from future deportation. In fact, if Obama took this approach it would give illegal entrants and their families a false hope, and they would be in for a very, very rude awakening in the future!


Of course, the above contention is based upon the assumption that our president is not vested with legislative powers. And this assumption turns out to be correct because Congress, the People’s elected Representatives from each State, are vested with the exclusive power to adopt legislation, and this includes legislating laws dealing with aliens and naturalization. On the other hand President Obama, under our Constitution, is specifically and emphatically commanded to be faithful to our Constitution and execute laws passed by Congress! The president is not vested with power to disregard the policy making decisions enacted by the People’s Representatives and supplant his own policy in its place.


So why is our establishment media continually telling us Obama will be signing an Executive Order granting amnesty to tens of millions of illegal entrants this Thanksgiving day? Is our establishment media trying to convince us that if Obama pens an Executive Order as described above it would have the force of law, and these illegal entrants would no longer be subject to deportation under existing statutory law? Is it not crystal clear that if Obama does write an Executive Order as described above he would be engaging in an act of sedition? Why is our big media trying to brainwash us into thinking President Obama has authority to ignore our Constitution and statutory laws passed by Congress which deal with illegal entrants and naturalization, and supplant his own arbitrarily created legislation? And what about our law enforcement agencies across the nation? Are they to enforce Obama’s declarations or our Constitution and laws passed by Congress?


As to the immediate action which the House and Senate should take if Obama does carry out his threat, Congress should pass a joint resolution declaring Obama’s Executive Order is unconstitutional, is an act of sedition, and it “imposes no duties, confers no rights, creates no office, bestows no power or authority on anyone, affords no protection, and justifies no acts performed under it.” By doing so, it would put our law enforcement agencies across America on notice to ignore Obama’s sedition, while likewise putting illegal entrants on notice that Obama’s unlawful act is null and void and provides no protection to them!

The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny. ___ Madison, Federalist Paper No. 47

 
.....unless everyone pretends that it comes from the deity known as "authoritah", in which case it will have meaning.
 
Of course it's true. Do you think the Republicons will hold him to account? Psssht! (honestly, I don't think you do believe they will suddenly grow a spine)
 
Why do you want government regulating and involved in the free movement of natural resources (immigrants)? Surely, you're not saying you know how micromanage an economy. That would be so Keynesian of you!

Pretty sure someone can hold an anti illegal immigration position without being a Keynesianist. :rolleyes: Some of us just are not big fans of that whole globalist one-world government thing that a borderless society would necessarily create at this point in time. Does this mean the next time you disagree on the kind of beer that goes into the pitcher everyone can call you a fascist? After all, just as much as John is here advocating for restricting the free movement across national borders, you would be forcing your will on the rest of the table who really wants to drink piss water instead of beer.

Calling John a Keynesian because he does not like open borders, is like calling you a fascist because you don't like pisswater beer. In fact, the simile is basically identical, and in both cases it is misplaced.

I have no problem with it if they all move into your house.

The Obama Administration is employing the same cowardly tactics used by the Hamas. It hides behind woman and children while flooding our country with the poverty stricken, disease carrying populations of other countries!

I would like impeachment but republicrats already took that off the table. I would prefer to see Obama arrested. That would definitely be the highlight of my year. He is guilty of so many high crimes and misdemeanours he would never see the light of day again. Even the architect of Obamacare admitted yesterday they intentionally lied to the public, relying on lack of transparency and the stupidity of the people to ram the law through. That proves Obama is not as ignorant as he appears, but rather intentionally committing acts to betray the American people.
 
You know, advocating that Obama violate the Constitution is sedition. And I don't think that it would be a bad idea for us to say so out loud.

I think I, and most people, know how to settle a disagreement about what beer to drink. I simply don't claim to know how to manage and intervene into a massive economy with a trillion moving parts and make sweeping arbitrary regulations such as restricting immigration....for the better. It's very Keynesian....beer disagreements are not quite on that level.

Dianne,

Our founding fathers agree with you about Obama being guilty high crimes and misdemeanors. And to prove the point, let us recall what Representative BURKE says during our Nations` first debate on a RULE OF NATURALIZATION, FEB. 3RD, 1790

Mr. BURKE thought it of importance to fill the country with useful men, such as farmers, mechanics, and manufacturers, and, therefore, would hold out every encouragement to them to emigrate to America. This class he would receive on liberal terms; and he was satisfied there would be room enough for them, and for their posterity, for five hundred years to come. There was another class of men, whom he did not think useful, and he did not care what impediments were thrown in their way; such as your European merchants, and factors of merchants, who come with a view of remaining so long as will enable them to acquire a fortune, and then they will leave the country, and carry off all their property with them. These people injure us more than they do us good, and, except in this last sentiment, I can compare them to nothing but leeches. They stick to us until they get their fill of our best blood, and then they fall off and leave us. I look upon the privilege of an American citizen to be an honorable one, and it ought not to be thrown away upon such people. There is another class also that I would interdict, that is, the convicts and criminals which they pour out of British jails. I wish sincerely some mode could be adopted to prevent the importation of such; but that, perhaps, is not in our power; the introduction of them ought to be considered as a high misdemeanor.

So, as it turns out, allowing the kind of foreigners who are now invading our borders should be considered as a "high misdemeanor" which happens to be an impeachable offense!

The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion
 
While everything you write is true in a normative context, that context is non-existent.

In the positive context, Obama has men with guns who maintain the chain of obedience with threats of violence and actual acts thereof. In positive fact, everything you wrote is dead-wrong. Congress, for example, holds ZERO normative authority to prohibit the cultivation, possession, sale, and use of cannabis. Yet, they have so prohibited, have established and funded men with guns to enforce their zero-authority fiat, and as a result countless millions of lives have been destroyed with prison terms, vicious acts of violence, criminal records that taint life's quality, and death itself.

The Framers had ZERO authority to impose Articles of Confederation or the Constitution upon the people of this land. Yet, they did precisely that.

As I am sure we all see, the list goes on for a good stretch of the legs. There is so much wrong with this land in terms of governance that correction appears hopeless. Many scoff at this, comparing us to the rest of the world, and while indeed things are "better" here, that does not mean those things are "right". We are in a frightful state of affairs in almost all facets of consideration. Governance is running amok in a world where people should be free, but people are too befouled of ignorance, sheer stupidity, cowardice, and all the other "sins" that damn them to lives where true freedom is impossible. The average man knows not what is "right" in terms of proper human relations and cannot, therefore, know what is right in terms of governance. He is too lazy to learn, too afeared of the work required to gain and maintain his freedom, and too wanting of someone else to do all the dirty work for him to ever make a serious attempt at free life.

The meaner has been well trained (anyone remember "Farm Aid"?) to be content with the low standard of behavior that says "to feel badly about a given cause is sufficient gesture and work". Now, all people have to do is "feel badly" about some cause or other circumstance and all is well in terms of his absolution of responsibility toward himself and his fellows. No action required; not even the opening of the wallet, though that is always encouraged and appreciated.

A world of such men holds zero hope of ever being free, for not only is freedom not attainable by them, it is not wanted in the first place.

The question to be answered is, will our law enforcement agencies across the country, Sheriffs, Police Departments, etc., submit to and follow Obama's Executive Order threatened tyranny or simply ignore it and follow existing statutory law an our Constitution which they took an oath to support and defend? And, let us not forget that we have been warned about submitting to tyranny.




”Submit to despotism for an hour and you concede the principle. John Adams said, in 1775, “Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud.” It is the only thing a people determined to be free can do. Republics have often failed, and have been succeeded by the most revolting despotisms; and always it was the voice of timidity, cowardice, or false leaders counseling submission, that led to the final downfall of freedom. It was the cowardice and treachery of the Senate of Rome that allowed the usurper to gain power, inch by inch, to overthrow the Republic. The history of the downfall of Republics is the same in all ages. The first inch that is yielded to despotism - the first blow, dealt at the Constitution that is not resisted - is the beginning of the end of the nation’s ruin.” __ THE OLD GUARD, A MONTHLY JOURNAL DEVOTED TO THE PRINCIPLES OF 1776 AND 1787.

If the America People do not rise up and defend their existing Constitution and the intentions and beliefs under which it was adopted, who is left to do so but the very people it was designed to control and regulate?

I don't see this as being much of a question. Some will defy, most will not. Why am I confident of this? Percedent. Why did sheriffs enforce NFA34? GCA68? The Hughes Amendment? Drug laws? Why did they enforce any of the statutes that violate Individual rights? The question you might want to ask yourself is, "why is this different such that I am well reasoned in asking whether the EO will be enforced?" Precedent says it will be.

And if those in defiance constitute a sufficiently small minority, the feds will knock them off one at a time. Arrest, arraign, try, convict, imprison, rinse, repeat.

With this I agree. Our forbears should perhaps have hung the Framers. Sacrilege, I know, but nonetheless true. When put to even mild scrutiny, the establishment of so-called "governments" and "states" constitutes criminal action because it imposes upon people that to which they have not given consent. That is pure FAIL no matter how one cuts it. Naturally, people rarely function in such pure terms. But even when we are "practical" (baloney BS term to blunt the truth about tyranny), the shackles that have been put on our limbs cannot be justified in any measure or manner. American tyranny began in the earliest days - Whiskey Rebellion, Marbury... yah, it is nothing new even here.
 
Yet tireless bombing of random countries year after year violates no laws at all?
 
Keep in mind that Obama’s tyranny cannot be carried out unless there are federal employees willing to do his bidding and subvert our constitutionally limited system of government.

To find out who would be in charge of carrying out Obama’s illegal amnesty in your state and the physical address of the facility CLICK HERE and scroll down to the map and click on your state. For example, if you click on Texas you will find there are six field offices:

Dallas Field Office
This office is located at: 6500 Campus Circle Drive East Irving, TX 75063.

El Paso Field Office
This office is located at: 1545 Hawkins Boulevard El Paso, TX 79925.

Harlingen Field Office
This office is located at: 1717 Zoy Street Harlingen, TX 78552.

Houston Field Office
This office is located at: 126 Northpoint Drive Houston, TX 77060.

San Antonio Field Office
This office is located at: 8940 Fourwinds Drive San Antonio, TX 78239

And if you click on the specific field office, e.g., the Dallas Field Office, you then find those who would be asked to enforce and carry out Obama's Executive Ordered amnesty. In this case that would be field office Director: Tracy Tarango, District Director: Lisa Kehl

These two would have to make a decision to obey Obama’s wishes, or obey our Constitution and statutory law.

It may be helpful to write a letter to the field officer director and district director in your state and remind them that they took an oath to be faithful to our Constitution, and not to a president who has decided to ignore our Constitution and impose his will upon the people. Obama’s tyranny cannot take place unless he has willing accomplices!

We are here today and gone tomorrow, but what is most important is what we do in between, and is what our children will inherit and remember us by.
