In reply to the discussion: New Executive Order Seizes Control over Civilian Activities [View all]bvar22
(39,909 posts)In the last 10 years, starting with the Patriot Act,
our government (Republicans AND Democrats) have declared Perpetual Global WAR on a concept (Terror),
and the White House has assumed Perpetual War Time Powers & Privileges,
or at least until the time that the word "terror" has been defeated.
The Constitution, as we once knew it, no longer applies.
No one needs to directly attack the US, and nothing else needs to happen for any president to enact any provisions of this EO,
openly, or in secret, without the approval of Congress or anyone else.
The Executive Branch has declared itself Supreme, Infallible, Omnipotent, and accountable to No One.
Our pathetic Congress (Democrats & Republicans) has gone along meekly, completely abrogating its Constitutionally assigned duty as a Co-Equal branch of government providing a check & balance on the Executive Branch.
Welcome to the New American Century of perpetual WAR and a supreme Unitary Executive.
This has come as no shock to those of us familiar with the Project for a New American Century (PNAC),
and its role in subverting the Democratic Party leadership through the DLC.
We are seeing the successful culmination of a 20 Year Plan.
But its ALL GOOD,
because Big Brother LOVES you,
and only wants what is best for YOU!
Just Go Along Quietly.
We have always been at WAR with EastAsia TERROR!
Cheers!
Cherish your memories,
because "they" are taking everything else.
