So Eric Holder says that in extraordinary circumstances, the president can have Americans killed on American soil. And what are these extraordinary circumstances? We’ll just leave that to the imagination. I’m guessing something involving low poll numbers.
What do you think those extraordinary circumstances are?
* McDonalds is out of Chicken McNuggets.
* Someone left the cake out in the rain.
* Al Sharpton deems something someone said to be racist.
* Obama is feeling a little down and needs a good chuckle.
My guess would be “nutjobs” who refuse to give up their “assault” rifles and high capacity magazines because it would be “too dangerous” for police to arrest them
failing to vote appropriately in a referendum election to determine if Obama should maintain power.
* An underage girl won’t have sex with Bob Menendez for money.
* Someone’s thermostat is set above 68 degrees.
* Look, a Republican.
* Someone laughs when Obama throws a baseball like a girl.
* You’re having a grass roots meeting on the grass and you’re trampling the grasses roots.
inciting a Tea Party rally, carrying a box of Lipton’s Tea in a threatening manner, ordering a Long Island Iced Tea, watching a movie with Mr T. …
* Not enough air in your tires.
Your wearing a Fox News I.D. badge.
* You’re driving down a peaceful country lane in a tank, minding your own business while stopping to smell the flowers.
*Answering the call to protest an Obama third term.
*Be seen running from Biden’s house after the report of a shotgun is heard.
* You make fun of Joe Biden…oh, damn.
Photo Shopping pictures of him.
Encouraging people to write nasty things about him, Michelle, Joey, etc. from your home in Idaho.
….It will start with the Jooooooos.
*Being disguised as a door when you are really a window.
*Optics require you to be vaporized before your Tiananmen Square style photo op is completed.
* Any scenario that Janet Reno and Bill Clinton would even remotely find threatening.
You are a stick figure drawing wearing a hat.
Ok fine. Let’s be fair!!
Then in times of extraordinary circumstances,
WE THE PEOPLE
can have a president killed on American soil.
It’s Wednesday!
For filibustering over drone strikes.
You’re holding a ten round magazine while drinking from a 32 oz soda and smoking — all in a public place!
* Gee, Mr. President, wouldn’t you just LOVE to be that judge of “extraordinary circumstances?” Of course you would! And now, your gun-runner in chief says it’s legal! Yay!
Meanwhile, Chris Matthews is having a tingling boom-boom in his pants.
*We got these drones in the air and I just can’t get that Heard It Through The Grapevine earworm out of my head.
*Voter fraud is really labor intensive nowadays.
his golf fund being suspended until the White House is open to tourists again.
…a Communist has usurped the office of the President
* Any Constitutional crisis. Oh, hey! Like this one.
Go Rand Paul!
@ #17 Son of Bob
Been nice knowing you.
Nobody stand near the frog!
* Golf game rained out.
* Cat killing birds in my yard.
Wait. Let me think about this.
Well, they’re just like ordinary circumstances, only extra so.
Aide: “Mr. President, the House has a counter-proposal on the budget.”
Obama: “Really? Why, what an extraordinary situation!”
Aide: “I don’t see th. . . oh. OH. I’ll get right on it.”
“If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on
government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be
administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first
enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it
to control itself. A dependence on the people is, no doubt, the primary control
on the government; but experience has taught mankind the necessity of auxiliary
precautions.
“…. On ordinary occasions it [executive power] might not be exerted with the requisite firmness, and on extraordinary occasions it might be perfidiously abused.”
-Publius, Federalist Papers #51.
Yep, *those* extraordinary occasions.
* You correct Obama when he talks about Colin Kaepernick’s batting average.
* You try to buy a ticket for the Intercontinental Railroad.
* You ask Obama to converse with you in Austrian.
* You ask Obama what the capitol of Israel is.
* You sink a jumper that sails over Obama’s head.
* You filibuster one of Obama’s cabinet nominees.
* You cling to a gun and/or a Bible.
In light of these new revelations, I am beginning to understand why John Roberts found Obamacare constitutional.
And I’m starting to understand the reasoning for the Obama Census takers recording the GPS coordinates of every resident in this country.
Oh sure, there may be some collateral damage in large apartment complexes and nursing homes and such, but hey, I’m pretty sure that rules of engagement won’t apply.
And what are these extraordinary circumstances?
Disagreeing with Barry
Not thinking that Michelle O is the most fantastically beautiful female in the history of the galaxy
Bitterly clinging to your guns and your Bible
Being a veteran – you know how those veterans are all potential terrorists who need to be watched
Thinking that Marxism works really great for ants, bees, and wasps, but not for humans
Being any minority who voted Republican or Libertarian
Not being a union member
Not willing to submit to allah
Thinking that the pREsident of the United States is required to follow the Constitution
Extraordinary circumstances such as: thinking ‘bad thoughts’ about Obama; noticing that he is a liar, a racist and a foreign enemy; being a poster at IMAO; failing to buy a car that runs on batteries.
Obama replied, “Look, constitutionally I ca’t rendition you, but I can extraordinarily rendition your ass all the way to Saudi Arabia if I want to!”
Insisting on a literal interpretation of your Constitutional Rights.
No, Jimmy, that is totally acceptable. http://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/Turf-Battles–132355253.html
Well, maybe we should start talking VERY seriously about this, Crabby.
Various non-military, U.S. government agencies now have 100,000’s of firearms, 1.6 billion bullets in their inventory and 2600 light armored vehicles on order. With the huge increase in the use of surveillance drones by many agencies, why would Obama and his administration want the LEGAL right to perform drone strikes against U.S. citizens within the United States?
I can only think of one reason: they expect an armed insurrection. This isn’t just Obama. These are the increasingly paranoid “powers that be” in Washington who want this. The filibuster that Rand Paul is conducting right now is by a small group of objectors.
Watch Rand Paul (et al) live right now:

Extraordinarily, the sun rose in the east today. Watch your back. Scratch that. Watch the sky.
“It worked great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in the sight of men;… and it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast so that the image of the beast should even speak, and to cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain.”
Rev. 12:13, 15
* someone makes a youtube video which is deemed insulting to the Prophet (PBUH) by the Muslim brotherhood.
