How can anyone who knows anything at all about the Constitution have made such a blatantly ignorant statement? My mind is boggling!

while acting as CiC.

That is neocon spin, and nothing more.

Why do freeepers hate the Constitution? Why do they hate America?

"Section 1.Before he enter on the execution of his office, he shall take the following oath or affirmation:--"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."


Section 3. .......he shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed, and shall commission all the officers of the United States.


Section 4. The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."
