JJ, Jr’s extra-constitutional remedies

| October 14, 2011

It’s funny how when Democrats can’t get what they want, it’s always the process that’s at fault, it’s never that they haven’t made their case to the public, or that they might be wrong completely on a cerain subject, but it’s always the process that’s against them. Jesse Jackson, Junior reaches that conclusion in an interview with the Daily Caller sent to us by DaveO;

Jackson added that his $804 billion stimulus plan is the only way to solve the unemployment crisis. “I support the jobs plan. I support the president’s re-election. I support Barack Obama,” he said. “But at this hour, we need a plan that meets the size and scope of the problem to put the American people to work.”

“We’ve got to go further. I support what [Obama] does. Clearly, Republicans are not going to be for it but if the administration can handle administratively what can be done, we should pursue it. And if there are extra-constitutional opportunities that allow the president administratively to put the people to work, he should pursue every single one of them,” Jackson suggested.

He calls for “exra-consttutional” remedies, but what he really means is “unconstitutional”actions by the president. Since the Congress controls the purse strings of government (poorly), Jackson recommends that Obama just seize the Treasury and spend as he wishes without the consent of the People (which is what Congress is supposed to be).

Jaxkspn claims Congress is in rebellion and he suggests they shoudl be dissolved as a result. Rebellion against who? They were elected to stop reckless spending by this administration, and thy’re only doing that which got them elected. Maybe Democrats should order Republican voters shot so the process will finally work in their favor.

Nebermind that Congress is a co-equal branch of government…

Dems can never understand. They come back with the same old saw, “We just didn’t do a good enough job of getting our message out there.”. People heard just fine, they just don’t like it.

Rebellion? Is that code for not spending? Or, not doing what dems want?
This asshat needs to be impeached, “Extra-constitutional” sounds like a high crime or misdemeanor to me.

Damn Constitution. Damn Founding Fathers. Damn rule of law. How the heck can Obama get anything done before he gets booted!

Just like the idea floated by the sitting governor of North Carolina about suspending elections so they can get to work putting people back to work and saving the economy. Yeah, they only cite the Constituion when it works in their favor

it kind of makes you wonder. I mean first its jobs. What after that? For all the charges that Republicans are Imperialistic, its amazing how much Dems want a Monarchy.

JAR JAR: In response to the direct threat to the Republic
mesa propose that the Senate give immediately emergency
powers to the Supreme Chancellor.

So, Jesse Jackoff, Jr. is Jar Jar? Wow.

That’s a bold (yet surprisingly apt) comparison, Flagwaver.

It’s scary when you actually watch the Star Wars Prequels and compare it to what Obama is doing. Including spreading the peacekeepers out across the planet while he consolidates more and more power.
