Germany has nothing to do with it. Do you have any idea what the job of the President is, or the authority he is granted upon appointment to office? You obviously don’t.
Even George Washington lead the Army himself on American soil to crush the Whiskey rebellion, a tax revolt lead by American citizens after the revolution in 1794, after the Constitution was ratified.
The President has that Executive Authority under the Constitution. You need to read a few more history books.
Um…Yes. The President does have executive authority to arrest someone if they have broken the law. That’s what Executive authority is for. That is the power he has been given upon entering office. What do you think the Dept of Justice falls under? The Executive Branch. ie, under the President.
The fact that you have resorted to cursing and calling me names, proves you are obviously still a child, and know nothing about Constitutional Law.
Please stay in school.
Good heavens, what have they been teaching you kids in school?
Obviously nothing worthwhile.
You really need to go to school and actually study history without listening to some moronic liberal hippie for a teacher you must have. And yes, Congress can abuse its power too. That’s why they have 2 year terms. If the other members of Congress will not censure and remove corrupt representatives, then the President actually has authority to have them arrested if they have broken the law. If their actions are simply politically abhorant, then the people can elect someone else.
You obviously have never studied Constitutional law. That’s IS THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THE CONSTITUTION. It is to establish the structure and LIMIT the power of the Federal Government. That is what the founding fathers wrote it for. Otherwise the Federal Government can easily overeach its powers over the people, and make them slaves, or usurp the rightsof the people, like The British did. That’s why is was written, to prevent that.
That is the whole purpose of Congress. The Congress shall have authority to impeach federal Judges. That is who is supposed to keep the Judicial branch in check. Congress is the elected representatives of the people. That is their purpose. Same goes for impeaching the President.
And the Constitution is written to establish the structure of the FEDERAL Government, and to limit its power. The power to impeach Judges and the President in fact lies with the Congress.
US Constitution Article 3 section 1.
Specifically states that judges shall serve in times of good behavior. It has been stated in the federalist papers and precedent that violation of “good behavior” not only includes a felony, but improper use of power to manipulate the stated intent of enacted laws by Congress. If Judges purposely interpret enacted laws to promote personal agenda veering from original intention, they may be impeached by Congress, and removed from office.
Gary Johnson does, except sadly he doesn’t have much chance of becoming president this year.
Ron Paul 2012.
No one running for president gives any regard for the constitution except Ron Paul, the country has no other hope of restoring our freedoms
This is what this country needs. Our lawyers and Judges are out of control. Some of them should be called in front of Congress on national TV, and explain to the country why they make some of the decisions they do. The moment they need to explain themselves, you’d be amazed at how all of a sudden, these moronic Anti-American decisions stop.
Then would he have arrested the activist judges on the Supreme Court who gave the 2000 election to Bush?!
Fuck you Gangreenrich. You are a fucking retard.
Or rather, thank not stupid voters.
Maybe someone can explain why a judge should be immune from having to publicly explain the reasoning behind a decision to the Congress? We accept congressional oversight of executive branch decisions, why not judicial?
Are these two young men simply incapable of understanding the English language?
Newt did not advocate arresting judges whose views he disagree with. He advocated calling judges before Congress to explain their rulings if they contradict accepted understanding of the Constitution. The discussion of the Marshals and the Capitol Police came up in a discussion of how to enforce a subpoena to a judge. All he is saying is that the judge would be treated no differently than anyone else who refused.
As an atheist, my blood boils when politicians pander for the god vote, BUT… I must admit, if Romney gets the nomination, I’m SO looking forward to Obama smacking him in the face with his big black Jesus. I simply cannot wait for the Mormon issue to come up. They’re saving that card. That’s Obama’s ace. If he gets the nod, the first time Romney is asked in public if Jesus Christ is the one true lord and savior and can’t answer it, he’s DONE. Magic stones and special underwear? I love it!
C’mon, this is a Gingrich stunt. He hopes to exploit the resentment against judges some Iowans feel because of their state supreme court’s ruling in favor of marriage equality for gays. He thinks an anti-judge stance will squeeze some votes out of angry yokels. Maybe. But the evidence indicates that Newtie is dropping like a big fat rock in the polls. Soon Newt will be slithering back under the rock he came from.
Truly Scary !
Noot is to the left of me, so I won’t ever consider voting for him, but the constitution only requires a supreme court. The citizens should demand the end of the other federal courts and judges.
Nuke the South!
Thank GOD he’s starting to lose in Iowa !
gingrich is part of/being supported by a christian dominunisim group(check recent midweekpolictics video) how is that not christian… just curious
Ron Paul? Do you know how crazy right wing he is? Paulbot 101
Why stop with the judges, why don’t we arrest politicians that we don’t agree with. OR even better lets do away with the whole system and let the repub party take over complete rule.
