The Founders Warned Us About Some One Some Time...Could Be Right About Now.

"The disorders and miseries which result gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction, more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation on the ruins of public liberty.
It serves always to distract the public councils and feeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection. It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which find a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions.
It is important, likewise, that the habits of thinking in a free country should inspire caution in those entrusted with its administration to confine themselves with in their respective constitutional spheres, avoiding in the exercise of the powers of one department to encroach upon another. The spirit of encroachment tends to consolidate the powers of all departments in one and thus to create, whatever the form of government, a real despotism.
If in the opinion of the people the distribution or modification of the constitutional powers be in any particular wrong, let it be corrected by an amendment in the way which the Constitution designates. But let there be no change by usurpation; for though this, in one instance, may be the instrument of good, it is the customary weapon by which free governments are destroyed."

CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of Congress that the use of offensive military force by a President without prior and clear authorization of an Act of Congress constitutes an impeachable high crime and misdemeanor under article II, section 4 of the Constitution.
Whereas the cornerstone of the Republic is honoring Congress's exclusive power to declare war under article I, section 8, clause 11 of the Constitution: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That it is the sense of Congress that, except in response to an actual or imminent attack against the territory of the United States, the use of offensive military force by a President without prior and clear authorization of an Act of Congress violates Congress's exclusive power to declare war under article I, section 8, clause 11 of the Constitution and therefore constitutes an impeachable high crime and misdemeanor under article II, section 4 of the Constitution.

Despite Sessions’ repeated efforts to get Panetta to acknowledge that the United States Congress is supreme to NATO and the United Nations, Panetta exalted the power of international bodies over the US Congress.

This is not surprising in ObamaWorld. He's been sidestepping Congress all along and bragging about it. This just may be the straw that broke the Congress's back. Let's hope so.

Herman Cain wrote a article at WND that said the MSM is Not reporting the Congress in a bipartisan vote, killed the Oversite Board for the Death Panel that Obama's Heath Care set up, maybe the Congress listened to Sara Palin.

Now we know why the Dems showed that MOCK HEARING PRESS CONFERENCE--with the advocate for SEX CHANGE Payed For BY Health INsurence, using the contraception argument for a stepping stone, to gain some credibility for the next step--Sex Change payed for by the TAX PAYERS.
TRICKY ENEMIES, HUH?
Control the MEDIA and can slide anything by the unsuspecting. Or KEEP anything from the Public.
