Will Bergdahl knows Military Justice?
Good question however the answer is “no” and here’s why:
- The Bergdahl affair was a calculated attempt by the Obama Administration to put, as they refer, “points on the board” with the hope of showing some form of Foreign Policy success and to take public focus away from the many scandals.
- Obama never considered the fall-out of his actions specifically as it relates to the security risks (clearly a Foreign Policy pendulum) and the massive blow-back from the Military (and I don’t mean the paper pushing politically-attached military) who would have Bergdahl, and perhaps the President, tarred and feathered.
Is the Clinton Dynasty Our Fate?
It could be particularly if the voters fail to view her in the appropriate light; a political curmudgeon with no single policy success in any of her official roles and the spine of a jelly fish. The concept of bi-partisanship is nothing more than a metaphor for the political survival notion of lowest possible common denominator. The psychopathic diminution of substance to something far more malleable or, as I’m oft to say; You can tell them whatever you want so long as you never have to account for what you say or do.
Imperial Presidency Licensed by Congress
It is absolutely true that the Obama Administration, more than any previous administration, has set new standards of tyrannical-excess in large part due to the activist-anarchist nature of the President and his staff. With that said there remains one significant feature that accommodates executive-abuse and that is the concept of “enabling legislation.” When most bills are passed thru Congress they are merely conceptual in nature and quite non-specific. The details of enacting the intent of the bill/act is accomplished thru language that defers action to a named bureaucracy who is enabled, by the very same bill/act, to create the organisms and regulations (as necessary) to carry out their interpretation of the bill/acts intent.
Inauguration Day 2013: The Principle of Absolutism
Yes indeed the President arrived armed with a remarkable missive and oratory skills to match. He had me, completely, at least up to the point where he contaminated the efffort with a somewhat temperamental understanding of this nation’s founding principles.
The cornerstone of my observation relies upon a proven understanding; that Principles are not transient and ever-changing. Now then, Mr. President, is it not the case that what defines a “Principle”, the essence of its nature, is that it must also be Absolute? True, given the partisan rhetoric of “our time”, I suppose it a form of poetic convenience or functionally rebellious for one (or all) to collapse upon the collective and malleable perspective that would suggest otherwise; a distortion one can clearly observe, in particular, through the Presidents use of the work “Absolutism.” For me, and perhaps you the reader, his misunderstanding reveals his ambitions by way of two key phrases both appearing in his Inauguration Address.
Economic Policy; Reversing the Trend
For nearly thirty years I’ve studies various tax, trade and regulatory actions analyzing, in part, their effects on economic cycles reporting my findings and recommendation to a Client with the hope that the effort would lend to a positive outcome. Over the years I have compiled data and anecdotal references to what I observed as cyclical-patterns; it would take nearly twelve years before I would begin to discover their value as an affirming and prognosticative tool.
