    By Alan Keyes - For more from Alan Keyes visit Alan Keyes is Loyal to Liberty. Once a high-level Reagan-era diplomat, Alan Keyes is a long-time leader in the conservative movement, well-known as a staunch pro-life champion and an eloquent advocate of the Constitutional Republic, including respect for the moral basis of liberty and self-government. He staunchly resists the destruction of the American people's sovereignty by fighting to secure our borders, abolish the federal income tax, end the insurrectionary practices of the federal Judiciary, and build a banking and financial system that halts elite looting of America's wealth and income. He formally severed his Republican Party affiliation in April of 2008 and has since then worked with America's Independent Party to build an effective vehicle for citizen-led grass-roots political action.





    Throughout his political career, Obama has consistently declared his view that the Constitution's purposeful restraint of government power is obsolete. Since the outset of his occupation of the White House, he and his faction have signaled their intent to circumvent, undermine or simply set aside the authority of the U.S. Constitution. Both here and in postings on my blog I have repeatedly had occasion to remark upon the design for despotism that has been evident in their actions.




    Now "eight Republican senators … are warning that the Obama administration is drafting a plan to 'unilaterally' issue blanket amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants as it struggles to win support in Congress for an overhaul of immigration laws." This represents the decisive step beyond derelict law enforcement. Not content merely to ignore the laws the legislature has properly and constitutionally made, Obama signals the intention to undertake unilateral executive action that alters the clear terms and intention of the established laws, entirely without the constitutionally determined consent of the people. This will be a blatant and presumptuous usurpation of legislative power. This is not just dereliction, it is lawless tyranny. It is outright dictatorship.




    Constitutionally exercised, the executive power represents the force of law. Once divorced, however, from constitutional provisions for ascertaining the consent of the people, it asserts instead the law of force, the unjust rule that might makes right. In effect, just laws fall silent, and all that speaks are the government's instruments of force and intimidation, imposing rules that have no more warrant of lawfulness than the command of a terrorist over those he holds, by threat of violence, hostage to his will. The forces under the authority of the presidency become in that case a weapon, loaded and cocked, held to the head of the American people.



    The ultimate expose on the radical nature of our 44th president: "The Manchurian President: Barack Obama's Ties to Communists, Socialists and other Anti-American Extremists"


    Cicero famously observed "Inter arma enim silent leges," "under arms the laws fall silent." For some time now, executive dereliction has effectively silenced what U.S. immigration laws have to say about the status and treatment of those who take up residence in the United States in violation of their provisions.



    If the Obama faction implements the reported plan to impose amnesty by executive fiat, the illegal immigrants' violation of the laws will in effect be defended and maintained by the executive forces of the U.S. government. Those forces will be arrayed against state law-enforcement agencies, such as those in Arizona, that continue to respect the provisions of established law. Hence, just as Cicero's dictum would lead us to expect, Obama's move to silence the immigration laws through dictatorial abuse of executive power will produce an incipient state of armed conflict between forces acting in conformity with constitutionally established law and U.S. government forces intending unlawfully to impose unilateral executive rule, which is to say, unconstitutional dictatorship.




    Though purblind politicos will pretend not to see them, this offensive move has ominous implications for the survival of peace, justice and liberty in the United States, especially if it is successfully carried out. Thereafter, the basis for U.S. government action will no longer be what the laws say, but rather which laws are silent; or which parts of which laws the executive will allow to be heard. The basis for civil peace will no longer be respect for the laws, but submission to unlawful dictatorship.



    If today the dictator mutes the immigration laws to allow illegal immigrants to violate them with impunity, then tomorrow what will keep him from muting the laws against murder, extortion, theft or arson so that they may be violated with impunity by people acting as his vindictive agents of repression? By warrant of his executive fiat, will they be allowed to assassinate, intimidate, despoil or destroy the opponents of the lawless tyranny he seeks to impose in place of law?


    Under the cloak of compassion for hapless illegals, the Obama faction seeks to establish the practical basis for ruthlessly imposing its will upon us all. Once that has been achieved, the threat of silencing some existing laws will be used to intimidate hapless legislators into making whatever new laws are dictated to them by the whims and purposes of America's new iteration of the age-old regime of tyranny.


    (Column continues below)

    This is an incredibly well articulated write-up by Mr. Keyes, which explains in plain old English the problems facing America if Obama gets his amnesty.
    It's clear that the reported consideration of this dictatorial maneuver is already intended as such a threat. Given that fact, the Obama faction's reported plan for fiat amnesty for illegals signals the commencement of the last stage in their consolidation of socialist dictatorship. While they still have the opportunity to do so, the people who oppose this surrender of American sovereignty and liberty must raise a hue and cry like none the nation has seen before. By all reasonable and peaceful means they must communicate and confirm their determination to remove from the seats of legislative power every vestige of the party that thus sponsors the rise of an American dictator.




    And when their resolve to do so produces indications of an electoral tidal wave certain to sweep the Obama faction from control of the U.S. Congress in the elections this November, they will have to pray – pray to the God who made and still may keep us free; pray that the likely failure of their schemes of usurpation does not lead the desperate tyrants of the Obama faction to implement their reported plan to silence the laws in order in some way to silence the sovereign voice of the people, as we tell them to surrender the constitutional power they have disgracefully schemed to overthrow.



    Obama's on the verge of outright dictatorship



    I hope the amnesty supporters read this... All those intelligent "liberalterians"...

    This is nothing short of crap we only read about.

    Prepare to live it America. The Gostappo is coming.

    Obama has always said he has a Progressive view...Progressives believe the Constitution is outdated an of no value anymore an we need to move on an away from it. He also believes in Socialism, Marxism.....so of course he wants to be a dictator. But I'm afraid there still way toooo many living in this country that have been brainwashed to believe in the liberal progressive movement...

    Illegal immigrants were a problem before Jan 20, 2009. There doesn't seem to be any mention of the 1986 amnesty. Both parties have ignored the problem since, leaving us where we are today. McCain's statements during his presidential run concerning illegals doing the jobs Americans don't want to do appear to show his willful compliance in continuing to ignore the problem.

    The statements listed do not say if Reagan, Bush, Sr, Clinton, Bush, Jr., or McCain were proposing dictatorships.

    The statements seem to be assigning blame to one individual, or possibly one party when there appears to be a lot of balme to go around.

    Being a cop in border town more perilous as drug cartels issue threats


    Nogales, Arizona (CNN) -- Mario Morales keeps his Commando assault rifle propped up on the seat of his patrol vehicle. The car snakes along a dirt road about a half-mile from the Mexican border.

    He's always kept the rifle within arm's reach. But in recent weeks, staying armed at all times has taken on a new urgency: Mexican cartels have issued death threats against the police on the Nogales force.

    His car rolls to a stop. Morales steps out and points to a nearby hillside where a rusty fence cuts through the desert landscape, separating the United States from Mexico.

    "I would not doubt it right now -- we're being watched," Morales says.

    We seen this in the last regime with Colin Powell, "Again" Our US Presidents do not run this country, they are "told" what to do or else!
    Allowing a black man in the whitehouse in a country that has a longggggg history of racism is a message in itself, it would seem that there are still many Americans that have not received that massage, Maybe if a rubik's cube ran for President in the next election, perhaps then the American people would understand.

    As ****ty a move as it was, it was done through Congress... And yes, all the politicians you mention, would love nothing more than to have the votes of illegal aliens granted unlawful citizenship...
