Obama's Dictatorial Powers

The National Defense authorization Bill is even now making its way through Congress and gives Obama the power to detain American citizens indefinitely without ANY means of adjudicating that detention on nothing but his ASSUMPTION that that person was “suspected” of being a danger to the United States. “According to the Act, such citizens face an indefinite period of imprisonment with no right of habeas corpus, no right to trial, no right to present proof of innocence, and no method of appeal. Obama made a point of offering false and cynical protestations against this indefinite detention language, claiming his administration ‘…[would] not authorize without trial the indefinite military detention of American citizens.’ ” But we know that’s a lie. ANYTHING a politician, especially one such as Obama CAN do, he WILL DO. Put that together with his recent action to take over ALL means of communication in a “declared emergency” (which he alone can declare) and you have the powers of a dictator. A similar law was PASSED by Congress last year and did you hear about it in the liberal media? Not a chance. (Western Center for Journalism)
