In United States v Bond, The Supreme Court Could Be Ruling On The
Safety Of All American Rights
On more than one occasion President Barack Obama or a top Administration
official has lamented that the Commander in Chief is not a king or a dictator
and is, therefore, unable to ram his progressive policies down the greater
American public's collective throat as quickly as his liberal supporters would
like. And on several occasions, the sole hurdle halting the President in his
dash toward liberal utopia-or totalitarian hell, depending on whom you ask - has
been a pesky 226-year-old document called the Constitution of the United States
of America.
But the Obama Justice Department is working to change that.
Attorneys at the Justice Department are currently working to advance a
Supreme Court argument that the Federal government should be allowed to invoke
international treaties as legal basis for policies that government officials are
unable to put into place because they conflict with the Nation's
Constitution.
