A government of one


A government of one


Republicans: Obama violating Constitution, but we are not going to do anything about it



The title above is a sarcastic play on words of a recent Fox News article titled “Republicans: Obama violating Constitution, but little can be done about it”.
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/02/16/republicans-obama-is-violating-constitution-but-little-can-do/ Though I mean it statistically,  it seems to be the truth. The original title is based on a comment made by Senator Mike Lee, a Republican from the state of Utah, during an interview on “Fox News Sunday”. During that interview Senator Lee said:



“Look, if that kind of broad regulatory mandate buried within the internal revenue code can authorize the president to do what he is purporting to do here, then there’s almost no limit to his authority. We have a government of one. We have a super executive and super legislator vested in the president of the United States. As, of course, not what we have as any high school civics student can tell you.

"The president knows this is wrong, and it’s not defensible. He is violating the Constitution. He is exercising power that doesn’t belong to him. It belongs to the American people.”


Here is an accusation leveled by Senator Lee that President Obama is violating the Constitution of the United States.  I would like to remind Senator Lee and his fellow senators, especially those of the Republican breed, of this little ditty sung while they had a hand placed atop of a Bible:



I 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.

This is not a campaign speech promise, nor a sound bite that can be modified or ignored at will. This is the Oath of Office all United States Senators take before assuming their elected office in the United States Senate.http://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/briefing/Oath_Office.htm

  It seems that Senator Lee and the rest of his colleagues in the United States Senate have forgotten that if the President of the United States, or anyone for that matter,  is violating the Constitution, it is their sworn duty to protect it “without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion”.

That clause means, Senator Lee, that the fact that “It’s difficult to identify the kind of plaintiff that would suffer the kind of injury, in fact, that’s particularized to the plaintiff” is not a “mental reservation” you are to be considering yourself with. If it goes against the Constitution, the American people suffer the injury that the laws that govern the land can be ignored by their government.  That is a greased pig on a slippery slope that, by your own admission, has happened in the past under previous presidents and continues with one currently in office.

This scenario is exactly what is wrong with our government today.  It is run by politicians who execute their oaths of office only when the political ramifications are conveniently in their favor.  Imagine if our humble men and women in the military chose to uphold their sworn duties only when they felt it convenient and within their best interests.

Americans should give thanks every day that at least someone connected to our government remembers their sworn oaths to defend the Constitution and take it seriously.

Each of us must learn to work not just for oneself, ones own family or ones nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace,“Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed.
