Attn: Congress: Would you know a coup d'etat if you had to face |
|
one?
See below: Definitions of 'coup d'etat' (kū dā-tä) - 1 definition The American Heritage® Dictionary coup d'état (n.) The sudden overthrow of a government by a usually small group of persons in or previously in positions of authority. Pretty clear to me what is happening and I feel helpless do do something about it. After all, protecting us from this kind of thing is your job, isn't it?

3. Enough slapping the Congress |
|
They are not the only ones responsible for protecting us from this kind of thing, the military has just as much responsibility!
"I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."
So, until the military starts showing that "true faith and allegiance", they share the blame along with the Congress!!!!!!
