For the flag and American womanhood!

That means you, Barry.

One week ago I left Hong Kong after it became clear that my freedom and safety were under threat for revealing the truth. My continued liberty has been owed to the efforts of friends new and old, family, and others who I have never met and probably never will. I trusted them with my life and they returned that trust with a faith in me for which I will always be thankful.

On Thursday, President Obama declared before the world that he would not permit any diplomatic “wheeling and dealing” over my case. Yet now it is being reported that after promising not to do so, the President ordered his Vice President to pressure the leaders of nations from which I have requested protection to deny my asylum petitions.

This kind of deception from a world leader is not justice, and neither is the extralegal penalty of exile. These are the old, bad tools of political aggression. Their purpose is to frighten, not me, but those who would come after me.

For decades the United States of America have been one of the strongest defenders of the human right to seek asylum. Sadly, this right, laid out and voted for by the U.S. in Article 14 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, is now being rejected by the current government of my country.

The Obama administration has now adopted the strategy of using citizenship as a weapon. Although I am convicted of nothing, it has unilaterally revoked my passport, leaving me a stateless person. Without any judicial order, the administration now seeks to stop me exercising a basic right. A right that belongs to everybody. The right to seek asylum.

In the end the Obama administration is not afraid of whistleblowers like me, Bradley Manning or Thomas Drake. We are stateless, imprisoned, or powerless. No, the Obama administration is afraid of you. It is afraid of an informed, angry public demanding the constitutional government it was promised – and it should be.

. . . because a nation founded on this document is worth saving, worth defending against an army of arrogant tyrants like Barack Obama

. . . and Portugal all just pulled down their pants, bent over and took it in the ass from Barack Obama.  My question is — did he use lubricant?  I’m guessing not . . .

If an American President, on his own authority, suspended the U. S. Constitution — as Barack Obama has pretty much done — and the Congress declined to impeach and remove him from office for this, would the U. S. military be justified in forcibly removing the government in Washington in order to preserve the Constitution? Does American “democracy” have any real meaning, any long-term viability, without the Constitution?

These are complicated questions. Like Obama and Morsy, Hitler was a democratically elected leader — but all these men assumed dictatorial powers after their elections which went beyond anything the people who elected them contemplated. Does there come a point at which a democratically elected leader nullifies his mandate through tyrannical acts?

It really doesn’t make sense anymore to refer to Barack Obama as the “President” of the United States of America. He has long since abandoned the duties and responsibilities of that office as outlined in the Constitution, instead assuming powers which that document was specifically designed to outlaw. He needs a new title — but what should it be? The Duke of Earl would work for me, conveying both the pretension and the absurdity of the role he is trying to play. As he walks through this world, nothing can stop him — because he’s the Duke of Earl. Or is that being unfair to a great and wonderfully witty rock and roll song?
