And thus the courts will give a preference to the minority. Oppression of the majority in the name of the minority. This is exactly the opposite of what our founders intended. Why is it simply accepted that a president can simply choose to violate the precepts of our founding.

Does this mean that now you don’t have to be a senator to get away with foregoing your tax burden. Perhaps we shouldn’t be so quick to judge. Under this new system anyone, and by anyone I mean anyone with a hint of pigment to your skin, can not pay taxes too. Of course you will have to continue paying your regular sum if you are white, with a modest bump to help cover the cost of those no longer required to pay.

UGGGHHHH. How can the president have such a horrible misunderstanding of the way government is supposed to work? He should’ve just gone to work for the Salvation Army if he wanted to be in charge of a charity.

Thank you ED, but you have praised the wrong pachyderm. This post was by my fellow blogger, The Elephant’s Child. I agree that she nailed it, but I wouldn’t want to take credit for her good work.

That’s one minor problem we’ve noticed with the new blog theme — it doesn’t make it clear who the author of each post is. Something I will work on fixing.

You’ve nailed this AE; even I understand this. However, in the context of the Obama agenda, redistributing justice along with wealth gives him the tyranical power he seeks.
