Kennedy and Biden are crawling slime. I remember their McCarthy-Style confirmation hearings for Robert Bork, where they shouted down perhaps the greatest legal mind this country has yet produced, blatantly and with little regard for the fact that all America was watching.
Posse Comitatus is in force so long as it is not "for the purpose of executing the laws," and this act cannot negate the Constitution which precedes it and all other law within these borders. If there were an executive order declaring this man a terrorist, a national enemy within our borders, and giving the Army expressed instructions to hunt him down like a dog and kill or capture him on sight, the Army would hardly be "executing the laws," and those concerned would merely be fulfilling their oaths to protect the United States from "all enemies, foreign and domestic "
The wordings of the current oath of enlistment and oath for commissioned officers are as follows:
"I, _____, 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." (Title 10, US Code; Act of 5 May 1960 replacing the wording first adopted in 1789, with amendment effective 5 October 1962).
Amendment IX
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
Which, as expressly enumerated in the Declaration of Independence: WE hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness...
This terrorist, having threatened this right for the general populace, threatens the constitution, thereby enabling all armed forces to do their duty to defend us against him.
You see? don't ever say something is impossible, because it isn't.. at least not for someone willing to lead.
