BACK INTO THE BATTLE
In May of 2,000 I closed my law practice in Baton
Rouge, Louisiana after practicing for 27 years. I put myself on inactive status
with the Louisiana State Bar Association, meaning that as long as I was not
practicing law I would not have to pay Bar Association dues or take the yearly
Continuing Legal …
Impeachable Offenses Update
I have repeatedly been asked by a number of different people if I think that the President of the United States, Barack Obama, has committed any offenses that subject him to being impeached by the Congress of the United States. The answer is without a doubt, yes because he has repeatedly breached hi…
CONSOLIDATING POWER
I have received dozens of inquiries about the Executive Order signed by President Obama on March 16, 2012. It is titled the “National Defenses Resources Preparation” order and appears at first glance to be just the reissuing of an order signed by previous Presidents during wartime or when wa…
CONSTITUTIONAL QUESTIONS AOUT THE NDAA
The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that was recently adopted by Congress, and signed into law by Barack Obama, contains language that has raised substantial Constitutional questions by civil libertarians on both the political right and on the political left. The bulk of the lengthy …
Time to apologize
President Obama has done it again; hehas apologized on behalf of Americans when no apology by the President was
needed or warranted. The incident involved American military personnel at a
base in Afghanistan being given documents in Arabic and told to dispose of
them. Apparently, the documents included…
IN MEMORIAM: OUR CONSTITUTION
In my last article, “The State of the Constitution” I talked about how President Obama and his supporters in Congress and the federal judiciary are systematically destroying the delicate balance of powers that was set up by our founding fathers. Obama is forming the type of governm…
THE STATE OF THE CONSTITUTION
President Obama made his 2012 State of the Union address and as expected, it was primarily a campaign speech to reinforce his changes for re-election in November. He is not the first President to have done this, and will probably not be the last. However, this speech was different becaus…
CONGRATULATIONS!
Great news! The two bills mentioned in my recent blog designed to regulate the Internet have been pulled out of consideration in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. I refer specifically to HR 3261, the Stop Internet Piracy Act (SOPA) and Senate Bill S 968, the Protect Intel…
LEGISLATIVE ALERT!
I pointed out in my last blog article that President Obama has started off the year by continuing to ignore Congress and implement his socialist agenda by using Executive action. However, that does not mean that the rest of us can also ignore Congress. There are currently some important p…
AMERICA’S EMERGING DICTATORSHIP
When our founding fathers declared our independence from Great Britain in 1776 the colonists were already in the middle of a bloody and costly war to secure their freedom. Once the war was successfully concluded it was necessary to create a new nation with a form of government that would n…
IN MEMORY OF PATRICK
On December 21, 2011 my son Patrick died of complications related to a rare degenerative muscle disease that was untreatable. He was only 36 years old. Many of you who are reading this were aware of Patrick’s epic struggle with this disease and supported him with your prayers. However, fe…
Christmas, 1944
It is that time of year when I start thinking about the importance of friends and family and why I should be thankful for the country I live in. It is also the time when I think about those fellow Americans who have stepped forward in the past and the present to place their lives on the line so …
ABOUT OUR CONSTITUTION
Some people seem to be forgetting that it is “our Constitution.” It belongs to the American people. It is not the property of the President, the Congress, or even the Federal courts. It is not theirs to tinker with, rewrite, or ignore depending on their personal whims and ideologies. It …
THE DOOMSDAY SCENARIO
Members of the U.S. Military are calling it the “Doomsday Scenario” and that is a completely accurate assessment of what is about to occur on November 23rd of this year. Unless something changes in the next two weeks that day will mark the beginning of the end of the Unit…
OCCUPYING AMERICA
They bill themselves as the Occupy Wall Street movement, and they claim to be a new wave of outraged Americans. Yet, in my view there is nothing new about them. They are camping out in public places in various locations around the country smoking dope, singing protest songs, screaming obs…
IN DEFENSE OF PATRIOTS
Obviously, this blog is dedicated to defending the Constitution of the United States of America. It is something that I have been trying to do, in one way or another, since I was a junior in high school, 46 years ago. During that time I have been awed and inspired by those much more learn…
DANGEROUS GAMES
Many of you reading this blog are probably already aware of a new website launched by the Obama reelection campaign called AttackWatch.com. It is a site where people are encouraged to report any so called smears against the President. A lot of people are looking at this as a joke, and…
REFLECTIONS ON 9/11
As we approach the 10th anniversary of September 11, 2001 I look back on that day and remember the things that I saw and what I felt. I often work late, sometimes into the early hours of the morning, so I'm not an early riser and neither was my late wife Kay. However, we were awakened by …
THE ULTIMATE OFFENSE
On April 4th of this year I posted an article on this blog called Impeachable Offenses. In that article I listed 12 things that President Obama had done that I felt were violations of his oath of office. Like many Americans, I have been appalled by the apparent disregard and even disdain…
CONSTITUTIONAL LAW ALLIANCE
I believe that we have reached a critical stage in our country’s history. Despite the outcries of the American people, the landslide loss of Democrat seats in the House of Representatives last November, and the President’s plunging poll numbers, Obama and the progressives continue to dri…
