An Open Letter to Congress

CongressMeetsOpinion:  Dear Congress – Republicans of all stripes, Democrats, including the communists, fascists, and Muslims, and you so-called Independents – Can we impeach him, now?

Has his latest instance of ignoring the laws he swore to uphold – “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States” – finally crossed the Red Line that will move you to live up to your oaths of office?

Will not informing you at least 30 days in advance of his intention to release five of the most powerful and dangerous of the Taliban prisoners held in Guantanamo, a move, by the way, that also ended the decades old American policy of never negotiating with terrorists, thus putting all American servicemen and women, not to mention civilians, at risk, will this, added to his long list of high crimes and misdemeanors finally motivate you to do your duty as our elected representatives and impeach the traitor before he does any more damage to our beloved country?

One Last Chance

JuvenileJusticeOpinion:  We used to be a nation of laws. Today, we are a nation of lies. From the “president” and his appointees and hired thugs on down, there has not been an utterance in the past five years that has not been lies, or at best, a rank distortion of the truth. The Democrat Party has followed the “president’s” lead, making wild, fantastic charges and slander the rule for their public statements. Of late, the Republican misleadership, aka the Republican Establishment, has taken to lying as grossly as the Democrats, all of whom now are attacking American citizens who still believe in government the Constitution and the Rule of Law.

This Memorial Day we would do well to remember not just the brave men and women who have served our nation so well over the past 239 years, but the principles and documents that institutionalized the reason they were willing to fight and, if need be, die. Our freedom, our liberty, as clearly delineated in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, is under attack as never before in our history, but this time the attack is from within. And this time, few are fighting back.
