The Death Of The Old Republic

Thursday night, in a not unexpected, but still unprecedented and unbelievable move, the Petulant Pretender, the Boy Who Would Be King essentially granted amnesty to approximately 5,000,000 criminal trespassers. Yes, you read that correctly - FIVE MILLION. In effect, and a fit of pique over losing what is shaping up to be the most important election of our lifetimes (perhaps ever), he's unilaterally rewarding people whose very 1st act in this country was committing a felony (that's a crime, libbies).

Thursday night, we witnessed what could very well be the death knell, the final nail in the coffin, of the United States as a nation, and as a Republic. What King DingleBarry has done with this one decree is say that the most recent elections held no meaning for him, that his policies, which he pointed out were on the ballot, were not soundly repudiated.

Thursday night, we ceased having a president. A self-styled king now rules in his stead. This king, which we were never meant to have, has decided that because he couldn't get some type of immigration reform through Congress (not even when he had control of the entirety of Congress), he has the absolute authority to change whole swaths of immigration law, onn his own. If you really stop to think about it, given the multitude of changes he's made to 0bamadontcare - again, on his own - this latest and most blatant foray into lawlessness isn't all that surprising.

Thursday night, a banana republic was created where a representative republic once existed. No longer citizens governed by the rule of law, we are now subjects of the Clown Prince, ruled by his whims and fancies. King DingleBarry has decreed that he will do as he damn well pleases, regardless of the will of the people. And make no mistake about it - November 4th was all about the people making their will known.

Now that it's been announced, the question now becomes - what can be done to stop it? It can't really be defunded, as the true effect isn't an action so much as an enforced inaction. Some states have already launched lawsuits, and some members of Congress have intimated they will do the same. I pray the courts take it up and rule against the Prince of Pique,and not just in the Republicans or conservatives favor, but in favor of the Constitution, and the Separation of Powers enumerated therein.

Thursday night, we witnessed something unparalleled in the history of America - the complete abrogation, even abandonment, of the presidential Oath of Office. The oath to "support and defend" the Constitution and "faithfully execute the laws" is one that should never be taken lightly, whether a lowly civil servant, a member of the military, a member of Congress, or the President of the United States. I know some will say that it's nothing new, that Congress and presidents past have broken their oaths before - to which I say never to this degree.

This cannot and WILL not stand. I, for one, will never bow before this, or any other king. There will be a reckoning for this Pretender to the throne, this Petulant Powermonger. I sincerely hope and pray that it's during my lifetime, as I don't want my children and grandchildren to have to clean up any more of our mess than is absolutely necessary. ~ Hunter
