Judge Napolitano: “Obama Is Dangerously Close To Totalitarianism”

http://youtu.be/bgrjbFofM-s

By Steve Watson | Infowars

Constitutional expert Judge Andrew Napolitano says he fears that the president is skirting “dangerously close to totalitarianism” with his recent questioning of the authority of the Supreme Court to conduct a review of ObamaCare.

Appearing on Neil Cavuto’s “Your World” show Wednesday, the Judge warned that Obama was systematically flouting the system of checks and balances established by the founding fathers.

“A few months ago he was saying the Congress doesn’t count. The Congress doesn’t mean anything. I am going to rule by decree and by administrative regulation.” Napolitano said.

“Now he’s basically saying the Supreme Court doesn’t count. It doesn’t matter what they think. They can’t review our legislation. That would leave just him as the only branch of government standing.”

“I think he has some problems with understanding the Constitution or accepting limitations on his power.” the Judge added.

During a speech at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, with Vice President Joe Biden in February, Obama said “Whenever Congress refuses to act, Joe and I, we’re going to act,” adding “In the months to come, wherever we have an opportunity, we’re going to take steps on our own to keep this economy moving.”

Let's just all pray these mass arrests are the real deal and when they do happen, the Revolution is prepared to jump in and do some heavy lifting. America is going to need some sanity, compassion and reservation of judgement in positions of DELEGATED authority when the time comes.

The time is coming soon for the Revolution too. Are we prepared to raise the bar of leadership or will we be just become that which we seek to replace?

"...as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil"

JUST STOLE THAT SIG

THANKS

:)

The Judge is only 1/4 correct

It is not "Obama" that is dangerously close to totalitarianism, it is the Two Party System that has hijacked this nation (and much of the World) that IS totalitarianism.

The Rule of Law has been replaced with Majority Rule. The D's and R's control the Majority Rule we live under.

Napolitano2016 !!! I love how fast on his feet the Judge is...

Not only is he libertarian, not only is he principled and articulate, he is fast on his feet with whom ever he is talking too.... got a love that.

Judge Andy for VEEP

Ron Paul needs a veep that can work in the trenches and there will be too many trenches the first couple of years of the Paul Admin.
Judge Andy can protect President Pauls back.

Great graphics!

Goes well with RP's "What if..." speech

Thanks and yes it would, but

Thanks and yes it would, but it's already been done once before: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sYbOL1lyyg

I don't like the music at all, but the visuals are great. I don't think anything I could do would have anything to add to that.

I'm working on a better version of this Judge speech, the legendary Mario Savio machine speech (almost done) and from there I want to do Bill Hicks' Just A Ride monologue to end it all on a positive note.

What I fear...

is Obama will try or even succeed in suspending this years election. Possibly with a war in Iran escalated into conflict with China and Russia. Then institute a draft. Ship everyone drafted overseas to fight, and bring in NATO forces to silence his political foes.

dampened my holiday cheer ...

... but it is very realistic so we do have to look at it.

we need to envision peace and enough people speaking up abut the false claims that are being used to drive us to attack IRAN.

when a planned action gets enough exposure on internet TPTB will postpone it so they dont stand there naked in the worlds view
not to say they give up any plan
but they will put it off

consider this

hil erie is made veep for the bamaO re relection
just before the Nov election he has a wellstone style accident
hil erie is defacto nominee and wins the office

now I gotta go out in the sun and get my cheer back.

Hayek has a full chapter dedicated to the very purposeful bastardization of language to help despotism in 'The Fatal Conceit: The Errors of Socialism'.

Definitely worth the read.

Thank you

For this tip. Looking forward to having a look at it.

I try to avoid gushing over

I usually try to avoid gushing over people, but Judge Napolitano is one of the most brilliant thinkers of our time. I saw him on Jon Stewart once and he just very politely and without shouting knocked down everything Stewart was giving him, but still made the comedian laugh and enjoy his time.

You are right!

The Judge is a prodigy. He is going to be an important voice of freedom and light in the deep darkness that is descending upon this nation.

I love the Judge.

Mad mancrush on him like I do Dr. Paul LOL.

Time to INVESTIGATE the investigators of 9/11. PROSECUTE the prosecutors. EXPOSE the cover-up.

Bush vs. Obama, No Difference!

Bush: Obama:
Iraq Pakistan
Afganistan Libya
Medicare Part D Obamacare
Patriot Act NDAA
GITMO opened Kept GITMO open
Ignored habeas corpus Bradly Manning still in jail
Abu Ghraib CIA Prisons
Rendition Assassinations
Claimed "state secrets" Ignores FOAI
Doubled national debt Doubled national debt
Disregarded constitution Disregards constitution
Corrupt Justice dept. Corrupt Justice Dept.
CIA Father CIA Mother

Now, given these glaring similarities, how can you oppose Bush and like Obama? You must either endorse both men, or oppose both men, for they are the same.

Only Ron Paul offers any choice in 2012.

Excellent (but sordid) comparison

I am saving this comparison for my records because it is so spot on.

Thank you.

It just frustrates him when those busybodies in the Suckreme COrt get in his way.

I think that Obama IS there, not just close.

Now, I will be very careful about what happens next.
"Truth is treason in the Empire of lies."

Even your statement

Even your statement is an understatement.

America stands and applauds at the collapse of this once proud and strong nation. Liberty, Freedom, and anybody who supports the Constitution and our Republic are now sworn enemies of this nation and its dictator.

Well, we won't have a president that

changes his underware too often if Romney gets in.

Next he's going to be saying

that if someone else beats him in November, it doesn't count.
