Is this the new normal? Obama’s politics of oppression and lawlessness

As pundits and politicians dissect the carnage of ObamaCare, a serious question demands an honest answer: At what point did the president know his plan to nationalize one-sixth of the national economy was not ready for the October 1 launch?
If, as he pleads with every controversy swirling around his administration, he did not know, his incompetency demands his removal from office.
But it is inconceivable that Barack Obama would not know the status of his signature legislation, his very legacy.
He knew, and he had a duty to his country to delay the launch, as so many had called him to do.
But this is a man who does not understand civility. He did the opposite.
He allowed a partial shutdown of the federal government in order to harm the credibility of his Republican critics.
Worse, his administration deliberately harmed American citizens in what can only be described as a rampant abuse of power.

I realize that FOX is biased but this is really going to the extreme.
and you know of another news channel that is not biased ?
This is the same crap, almost word for word, that idiots were saying about Bush 8-10 years ago.
I can’t believe it’s even posted here.
We have come to a point in our history at which it is essential that the Barack Obama myth and fantasy be effectively challenged and utterly destroyed, well in advance of the end of his second term as president. To do otherwise is to allow his impossibly effective campaign to destroy our civic, religious, military, and diplomatic culture (remember, he pledged to ‘fundamentally transform’ America) to become established chapter and verse of a new and demonstrably dangerous nationwide political movement.
If we act before the ink is dry on the fearful new tome Obama is writing, we may be able to erase or obliterate its corrosive message, and prevent it from being transmitted, unexamined and unrefuted, to our children, and to our children’s children. Wait too long, though, and we may never be able to “re-moralize” our country once he leaves office.
Think about it. We are accustomed to speaking about our former presidents in respectful, reverential terms. Obama knows this, and will exploit this dynamic for the rest of his life as he continues to pursue his now-obvious path of demoralizing true patriots and destroying our civil society. To the extent we act as expected and work to preserve our tradition of lionizing former presidents (who would have thought that Bill Clinton, he of rapacious sexual proclivities, could take such full advantage of this otherwise commendable habit!), we, as a country, effectively endorse the political activities, outlooks, and philosophies of our ex-presidents. At the very least, we have –at least to date– placed it outside the sphere of acceptable discourse for a nationally-recognized ‘thought leader’ or politician to professionally lambaste an ex-president, and (if applicable) reveal the true nature of his sociopathic personality, however thoroughly he may deserve such treatment based on norms or standards we apply to ordinary U.S. citizens.
Don’t you see? The time to act is when Obama remains in office. Obama must be forced to defend his every questionable action and inaction while he still occupies the office of POTUS. We must hold up a mirror to him, and force him to admit his past transgressions, as well as his true intentions for the future of this country. If we are lucky, we may see the day when he resigns, his political support entirely eliminated. But if he fails to resign, which seems likely, we must impeach him and remove him from office.
We have a great deal of hard work to do to restore the constitutional republic that is our political heritage. We are bound to protect our society against the current onslaught of attacks that is clearly intended to foment unnecessary self-doubt, sap our strength as a people, and stimulate and accelerate the kind of moral and cultural decay that history shows eventually reduces a proud nation-state to utter rubble. Let that work begin now, while the eyes of the nation, and of the world, are fixed on Obama and his administration.
