When Is An Oath Of Office Not An Oath?
September 22, 2009 · Guest Post · Print This Article
One of our subscribers has some serious (and well founded) concerns with the lack of a vetting process regarding President Obama’s “Czar” appointments.
She has written a sample letter to send to members of Congress in the hope of seeing some accountability.
After the recent Van Jones debacle, we urge all of our leaders to contact their Senators and ask them the following:
Dear…
When you were sworn into office you took an oath to”protect and defend the Constitution of the United States”.
My question to you is; did you believe it when you said it or was it just more of the pomp and ceremony that accompanies
such an event?
Our Constitution is being assaulted daily with the intent to systematically destroy it and make it non-relevant.
Those calling themselves “progressives”, as if that covers up their statist intent, are using numerous strategies to attain their end.
The most dangerous of those strategies is the proliferation of special advisors appointed by the president.
These czars undergo no scrutiny by the senate and their true powers are undefined.
I am not writing to make accusations about the political and social beliefs of these people.
This strategy allows the president to gain significant power.
The balance of power between the executive, legislative and judicial branches is critical to maintaining our republic as the founding fathers had intended.
Article 2, Section 2 of the Constitution states in part:
The President shall have power and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls.
WHERE IS OUR SENATE?
WHY ARE YOU ALLOWING THIS TRAVESTY TO CONTINUE?
