How has Obama not been indicted or impeached by now?

King-Kai · 2012-03-19 03:54:57

I'm going to be honest and say that I have a positive bias toward Obama since he's a Democrat and not a crazed Republican. However, after considering a few actions which his administration has taken, I've come to wonder why he hasn't been indicted or impeached by now. His administration has violated the Constitution numerous times, in the most heinous manner on each occasion. For example, the Fifth Amendment states the following:Fifth Amendment: No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.United States ConstitutionTake specific note of the portion that is in bold font (i.e. 'nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law'). When President Obama's administration sanctioned theassassinationof Anwar Al-Awlaki, it violated this Constitutional clause. Awlaki, a U.S. Citizen, was assinated without due process; he was never indicted or tried for any of the supposed crimes he was assinated for. Hence, he was deprived of life without due process of law, which is an egregious violation of the Constitution. How has the Obama Administration been allowed to do this? Can't the Supreme Court step in? How about the Attorney General? Oh, wait, he was nominated by the President himself. Talk about conflict of interest. :roll:Cenk Uygur talks about the assasination here.Another example of Obama's violation of the Constitution was his sanctioning of U.S. Military involvement in Libya. He never got Congressional approval.So, considering these examples, how has he not been indicted? WTF is happening to the U.S.? Doesn't anyone have any respect for the Constitution?

The constitution does not protect enemy combatants, regardless of whether he was previously a US citizen or not.

Ron Paul 2012. Another 4 years of Obama or someone like Romney is truly frightening. Every American should want their liberties restored.

And you think your saviour Ronny will restore them? You know i actually hope one day ron Paul is elected so you kool aid drinkers can see he is just like every other politician and in some ways worse.

I don't like kool aid. ;) He's by no means a "saviour", but at least he stays true to what he says. Name one time he changed his views just so he can attract special interest voters. That's right, you can't. He's been saying the same thing about our economy and foreign policy since Reagan, and it all came true. He's the only one right now who makes sense when he speaks, and its a shame people like yourself cant see that.
