A Nod To The Gods

Sarah Saldana, the head of ICE, has chosen to follow Obamas policy and not law, congress asks her why. The following is an answer that should have her removed from her position.

If your employer gave you a directive to do something that was against the law, particularly federal law, would you do it? If you are the director of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and your name is Sarah Saldana, you would follow your employer’s directive and commit a crime. In a testimony before a House Budget Committee subcommittee, Rep. David Young (R-Iowa) voiced concern about reports that ICE officials were not sure whether to follow the law and enforce it as it is written, or follow a unilateral directive issued by the White House via Barack Hussein Obama that basically relaxes “deportation efforts against what they call low-priority illegal immigrants.” These days, that is code for “everyone who crosses the border” – especially when in groups of 20 or more.

 

Young stated in the hearing with Saldana, “If I had policies that were contrary to the law, I would understand if they didn’t want to follow them. I would expect them to follow the law first.“

In response to this, Saldana replied, “And that’s where you and I probably have a fundamental disagreement.”

In that brief answer, she is saying that she does not believe she should follow the law but follow an Obama “policy”, which is against the law. She should be fired.

When Young asked Saldana if “she sees Obama’s comments as a threat to ICE officials,” Saldana laughed and said, “A threat? I’m here of my own volition and will. I’m just trying to help the United States of America and our country on issues that are so divisive.”

 

“Our Country”? So she is actually stating she is acting as an agent for “OUR” country which would be Mexico. How can she say “OUR” country if you she is supposed to be an American federal employee? You can’t be both.

The United States of America and our country? Excuse me, but the United States of America is our country. Her statement makes it sound like she is negotiating some agreement between two countries – the United States of America and the country in which she aligns herself. Being this concerns illegal alien invasion across our southern border, surely she isn’t suggesting that she’s helping Mexico, as well as the United States, at the direction of Obama. At this point, one could believe that would be true; after all, it is Obama and his whimsical orders she’s following.

 

Based on the attitude of Saldana, one can practically assume that the law is basically no more, at least where the government is concerned with following Obama’s orders seem to trump the law. Congress is basically a “front.” No longer is it a checks and balances branch against the executive and judicial. The law is now what Obama says it is, according to him, and Saldana echoes that sentiment. If truth be told, Congress follows it as well or they would follow the remedy of impeachment as prescribed in the Constitution.

Agreed! Keep reading….

I’m not a big Glen Beck fan, I feel like I am listening to an elementary school teacher lecturing me on the finer points of politics, but I DO agree it’s time to shelve the Republican label.

And this from over at Ace of Spades:

Added Gratuitious Anti-GOP Slap: Other than Keystone, the first 3 months of the GOP controlling the House with it’s largest majority in history consists of:
-Funding Obama’s amnesty
-Shelving an anti-abortion measure that has wide public support and passed the House before
-Proposing to reauthorize SCHIP at a rate higher than what George W. Bush vetoed TWICE
-Negotiating a deal with Nancy Peolosi to add hundreds of billions of dollars in deficit entitlement spending.

I follow the news pretty closely. I’m pretty sure none of that was what the GOP promised.

I strongly believe if a true leader stepped up and proposed to lead a third party, any party it does not matter the name, they would actually do quite well. It wasn’t establishment Republican voters who blew up the mid-terms, it was conservatives who have had enough of the Obama bullshit, now add the GOP to that list.

Interesting and infuriating. Wouldn’t you think this is an indictment on big government? Call me old fashioned but……

The SSA’s inspector general has identified 6.5 million number-holders age 112 — or older — for whom no death date has been entered in the main electronic file, called Numident.

The audit, dated March 4, 2015, concluded that SSA lacks the controls necessary to annote death information on the records of number-holders who exceed “maximum reasonable life expectancies.”

Nice job you shit asses!

Some of the numbers assigned to long-dead people were used fraudulently to open bank accounts.

And thousands of those numbers apparently were used by illegal immigrants to apply for work: “It is incredible that the Social Security Administration in 2015 does not have the technical sophistication to ensure that people they know to be deceased are actually noted as dead,” said Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. here

Your deceased parent or grandparent, who paid social security “taxes” all of their adult lives, being paid out or used as credentials by illegals. Start building the gallows.

CNSNews.com asked Coburn why his fellow Republicans, who supposedly support limited government, have gone along with the vast expansion of federal power.

 

“The Republican Party is not the party of small government,” Coburn replied. “I’ve been in Washington for 16 years, when Republicans controlled Congress and the White House, when Democrats controlled Congress, and every combination in between. There is no difference. There’s no difference,” he emphasized. here
