I am extremely concerned about our nation today. I'm actually afraid of what it may become before my daughter even has a chance to grow up. There are events in motion today that, if not stopped, will cause our Republic to crumble. The villains in the Whitehouse and their enablers in Congress have pushed this country to the brink, and no one is seriously talking about it.
We are immersed in a constitutional crisis that was a "worse case scenario" in the minds of this nations founders. During the deliberations that eventually formed our Constitution, those brilliant men discussed how best to counter the exact kind of lawlessness and injustice we see today in this administration. That mechanism was placed in the hands of the People, through constitutional authority, that they should protect themselves and the republic from the tyranny of a lawless and over-reaching Executive. Impeachment of such a tyrannical administration is not subject to political consideration, but is the People's duty by law. As the People's representatives, our Congress is bound by oath to uphold that law, and they have thus far broken that oath.
This Congress has the absolute power of the People, as dictated in the Constitution, to bring this to an end and turn us from the destructive course we're on. If they refuse their oath bound duty to defend the Constitution and rein in the abhorrent missuses of power perpetrated by this administration, then they will sign the death warrant for our Republic. If the powers that this President has claimed over the last six years are left unchecked, it will set a mighty precedent for following administrations to abuse even more power and push toward a truly imperial presidency. Just as the pardoning of Richard Nixon emboldened the current administration to lie cheat and obstruct to new levels, so too will these abuses carry forward and accelerate if left in place and unchecked.
The many High Crimes and Misdemeanors of this administration are well known. They are so well documented that even this administrations apologists and supporters acknowledge them. There is absolutely no excuse for the representatives of the People not to act. Political cowardice is the only explanation, and protecting the Constitution does not allow for cowardice. Too many brave people have died in service to this nation to allow something as shameful as political fear to stop the oath bound representatives of the people from doing their duty instead of looking after their party.
The need now of courageous statesmen is greater than ever. There have to be some left in our Congress who would bring this forward and shame the cowardly into action. Who can the people look to for courage? Will those campaigning to be the next president speak out and show leadership? I certainly hope so. What better way to display a commitment to justice and Constitutional authority than to show courage against those that seek to destroy it.
Our President and his despicable Vice-President have failed us by their lawless ambition and arrogant flouting and abuse of our laws and Constitution. Our Media, the fourth estate, has failed us by working for add dollars instead of the public good and by refusing to uphold their very serious and necessary responsibilities of questioning, investigating, and reporting everything that our government says and does. And now our Congress is failing us by not standing against these tyrannical abuses of our laws and Constitution. If the People's representatives will not act to protect them, then who will? Shame on our disgraceful President and Vice-President. Shame on the complicit and corrupt Media who have enabled their tyranny. And now shame on our Congress for their petty political squabbling and cowardice in the face of this great threat to our Nation.
