When is a Treaty not a Treaty? When the Emperor Says So.

“L’ÉTAT, C’EST MOI”

(Jul. 28, 2015) — What more, pray tell, will it take to convince Americans that not only have they twice elected an ineligible usurper to the presidency, but they have twice elected a traitor?

Art. 3, Sec. 3, Cl. 1 of the Constitution provides: “Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.”  A blind Martian, let alone the Congress, could see that the Iran nuclear “deal” forged by the regime – and like “Islamic terrorism,” we dare not call it by its true name, a “treaty,” lest it require approval by the Senate under the same Constitution – is precisely the species of “aid and comfort” and “adhering to their enemies” which the Founders feared and sought to define.

The Iranians are not chanting “Love to America” in the streets of Teheran.  And yet the “deal” is being marketed and touted by the regime at 1600 as the best thing since pop-top beer cans.  If this is not “adhering to an enemy,” coupled with “aid and comfort” to the same, what is?

We now learn from Kerry’s own mouth that the “deal” includes assurances that the United States will protect Iran’s rogue nuclear programs from outside attacks; that the money freed up to Iran through the lifting of economic and financial sanctions might, in fact, be used to kill Americans; and, of course, that if the “deal” is not ratified and approved by Congress – even with a veto-override – the regime may simply disregard the rejection and unilaterally proceed under the approval already bestowed upon it by that paragon of principle, the United Nations.

The only thing transparent about this atrocity is the gossamer-thin charade being offered up by the Emperor and his bicycle-challenged flack John Kerry as “hard-nosed” negotiations which were spearheaded in Switzerland over brie and lavosh to “forge” the “deal” now presented to the Congress for approval.  Or else.  So sayeth the Emperor: “[I] will veto any legislation that prevents the successful implementation of this deal.”   What a tyrannical jerk.

What the Emperor is really saying – and in the process, plagiarizing Louis XIV of France – is this: “L’état, c’est moi.  I am the state.  I am the king, and you will not oppose me.  I am the absolute monarch and in total control.  Resist me at your peril.”

Really?  In the United States of America, we tolerate a bozo like this to have access to the launch codes?  Is this not the same sort of tyranny that launched this nation to independence in 1776?

Memo to the electorate: wake up, man up and do the right thing by demanding that this goof be removed from office.  The time for “suggesting” or “requesting” impeachment of this dangerous charlatan is long gone.  The preservation of the United States of America is being undermined by the precise type of creature the Founders intended to forbid altogether from the office of the presidency, so he must be removed.  Then, the rebuilding of America – much to the chagrin of illegal alien felons, welfare cheats and home-grown terrorists – needs to begin.

Not in 2017.  Now.
