Letter to the Editor
America as a sovereign Nation?
Since the election of Barack Obama I have maintained that he has no regard for our Constitution or our position in world events as a sovereign Nation.
Recently our Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, when speaking before the Senate Armed Services Committee made the following declaration.
He said that the President should not consult the Congress but look to the globalist power of NATO and the United Nations for direction when deciding to openly engage in foreign war.
When asked by Senator Jeff Sessions of Alabama about what legal authority the Administration of Barack Obama has to intervene in Syria as it did it Libya, the Secretary responded. He made clear that the Administration answers not to the American people, the Congress or the Constitution, but to NATO and the U.N.
Panetta stunned Senator Sessions by saying “that the U.S. would seek a legal basis and international permission for military action in Syria” (especially if the action was the work of a coalition). The Obama administration would commit our sons and daughters to a hostile act without the approval of Congress; a clear violation of the War Powers Act.
We have a dictator who sits in the Oval Office; he has used our Constitution for a door mat since he has taken office. He has surrounded himself with socialist/Marxists in cabinet posts, answerable only to him. For our Republic to survive Obama must be removed from office. The future of our grandchildren is at stake and for this there is no compromise.
