An interesting weekend concerning respect for the president (lower case intentional) of the United States of America. The debate centers on respect of Obama versus respect for the office of the Presidency. Pouring water over an Obama mask at the Raleigh Tea Party was considered to be an act of disrespect for the office of the President by some people or an act of disrespect for the man. Arguments could be made for both sides but let's consider another viewpoint concerning respect.
If the current president shows an overt disrepect for the Constitution, Congress and the American people, does he deserve our respect? And what recourse is available to the people?
As pointed out by Hans in his Arrogance in Office article concerning the president's assertion that he will not abide by Congressional legislation concerning his shadow government:
If the president does not veto the legislation yet clearly states that he will not abide by it, where is the “rule of law” ?I will stand up against tyranny under the first amendment and take it one step further. Anyone who restricts their actions for fear of offending the "office of the presidency", I will refer you to the following statement from Sam Adams:
Several RINO friends criticized me for statements I made back in February: WWFMD ? I think my attitude has been vindicated.
Given this sterling example of “leadership”, what reason do I have to feel compelled to obey any aspect of the law with which I disagree ?
"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!”I will not bow down to a man who:
1. Allows the attorney general of the United States to make racist comments and ignores instead of enforces the laws of our country. Arizona immigration and the New Black Panther voter intimidation cases.I will let readers add more examples in the comments. I say it is time to "Eat the Reich" instead of "Eat the Rich".
2. Ignores the Constitution of the United States. The above example that he will not abide by Congressional legislation. Bypassing Congressional approval of the war in Libya.
3. Divides the country by attacking both the Tea Party and the Republican party in public and private.
4. Villifies the "rich" and "corporations" as being unpatriotic for not paying more taxes as half of the population pays no taxes in exchange for voting for tyranny.
