The problem in the US today is lack of an opposition party to the democrats. The entire political class and media are on one side:
"Above
all, remember that President Obama is able to abuse power only because
the RINO-led House timidly refuses to constitutionally block money for
such abuse. If RINOs are not replaced, and if a genuine opposition
party is not established, nothing can save the Constitution-or the
representative democracy and freedoms that are the heritage of this
country." (end of article)
Dec. 2013 article:
12/12/2013, "The Nuclear Option: Misplaced Conservative Outrage," American Thinker, by Lester Jackson
"Many
of today's worst problems are due not just to aggressive leftist
Democrats who will stop at nothing, but also to timid RINOs who stand
for nothing....
It
is galling that John Boehner became speaker in 2011, because Tea Party
Republicans campaigned on a promise to avert the current ObamaCare
disaster. In January 2011, Obama had not yet been re-elected, and the
House Republican mandate was at its pinnacle. All Republicans had to do
was not vote for money to implement ObamaCare. It is absolutely absurd to say that this required approval of the president or the Senate. The Constitution is crystal-clear:
if the House refuses to vote for appropriations, there is nothing
anybody else can do about it except scream to high heaven, much as
Republicans have done over the nuclear option. (Democrats do not care
who screams and how loud; RINOs quake at the very prospect.)
.
Future
historians will have ample reason to conclude that the great tragedy of
the Obama dictatorship was not the demise of the filibuster, but that,
at a critical moment, House leaders blocked fulfillment of the very
promise that made them leaders.
As
for filibustering to block judges who would legitimize further
unconstitutional abuse of power, never forget Chief Justice
Roberts. Those who revere the Constitution and were shocked by ObamaCare's intimidated savior should remember this: reliance on judges is gambling. Heed Judge Learned Hand's warning that we "rest our hopes too much upon constitutions, upon laws and upon courts. These are false hopes." .
Above
all, remember that President Obama is able to abuse power only because
the RINO-led House timidly refuses to constitutionally block money for
such abuse. If RINOs are not replaced, and if a genuine opposition
party is not established, nothing can save the Constitution -- or the
representative democracy and freedoms that are the heritage of this
country....
Today's
daunting tyranny is twofold: (a) authoritarian reign by largely leftist
oligarchic bureaucratic, judicial, and media elite minorities over what
President Nixon was once ridiculed for calling the "silent majority";
and (b) illegitimate domination by powerful over powerless minorities."...
