Specifically, tyrannical and treasonous behavior as defined clearly violates our United States Constitution as described in the Circumstances below.
Circumstances
Some of the circumstances under which the people of the United States of America have now becomefearful and gravely concerned for our rights, freedoms and liberties are listed below. The current federal administration has violated their Oaths or Affirmations of office and the Constitution. Tyrannical and treasonous actions on behalf of government officials against the people have been committed as detailed below:
-Citizens of the United States were denied much needed jobs because drillings for oil in the Gulf of Mexico after the oil spill carried too many frivolous and detailed regulations created by government officials.
-Citizens of the United States were denied much needed jobs because government officials would not allow the construction of the Keystone Pipeline.

-Barack H. Obama and other government officials have ignored crises in which the intended result of tactics of demonstration and protest which either generate institutional disruption or bring unrecognized disruption to public attention. (Occupy Wall Street, etc.)
-Obstruction by the DOJ of North Carolina’s non-partisan elections laws.
-DOJ lawyers who represented GTMO detainees.
-The fact that we even have a Fast & Furious investigation that Barack H. Obama and the DOJ are deliberately trying to sideline. They ALL needed to be IMPEACHED for this one!!

-Barack H. Obama executive order signed in Dec. 2009 that allows Interpol to operate in U. S. territory with impunity and without oversight by Congress, the courts, FBI or local law enforcement.
-The State Department using $23 million in taxpayer money to help transform Kenya into a constitutionally communist nation where the freedom of speech is limited and private property rights are subservient to “social justice”. In addition, the recently adopted Kenyan constitution allows for the practice of Sharia Law in some regions, ensuring women will not be guaranteed basic human rights.
-The $26 billion bailout of the teacher’s unions that Barack H. Obama signed into law.
-Government officials protecting union interests over those of GM and Chrysler bond holders during bankruptcy proceedings, forcing investors to accept millions of dollars in losses in direct violation of bankruptcy laws, money to which they were legally entitled.
-Spending $23 million of taxpayer money through the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) to support a constitutional referendum in Kenya in spite of the Siljander Amendment, which makes it illegal for the U.S. to lobby for abortion in other countries. The Kenyan referendum was partially written by Planned Parenthood and is designed to legalize abortion in that nation.
-Barack H. Obama’s canceling of 77 properly filed oil field development contracts approved by the Bush administration by Interior Secretary Ken Salazar, preventing the extraction of up to 3 trillion gallons of oil buried under Colorado, Utah, Wyoming and North Dakota, more than enough to end our dependence on foreign oil and supply the U.S. with its energy needs for hundreds of years at current consumption rates.
-We can also talk about the Solyndra scandal and how much taxpayer dollars were given to them that they wasted and then, shortly went out of business! There are other such similar scandals in the “green” energy endeavor.
-The worst crime of all that Barack H. Obama has perpetrated against the American people is the economic tyranny his socialist policies have wreaked upon our nation. While Obama has been living the life of a king including frequent 5 star vacations, dozens of concerts at the White House and endless rounds of golf, all paid for by taxpayer money—the increased transportation and security costs alone are in the millions of dollars—he has called for the rest of us to endure economic sacrifice. The annual trillion dollar deficits and borrowing of 41 cents of every dollar of federal spending by Obama has led to unsustainable and catastrophic national debt.
-And most disappointing, Republicans in the House ARE NOT PROTECTING the people’s right to free speech!! Personally saw and heard this on Tuesday, April 24, 2012. News title: New Law Makes Protesting Near the President Illegal; Judge Napolitano Calls It an ‘Assault on Free Speech’. All but 3 representatives in the House voted for this! SHAMEFUL!! Do you even KNOW the Constitution?
Regrettably, this list could go on and on. And unfortunately you know as well as We the People what is going on in this current government administration. Why are you NOT fighting for the people?
Recommended Punishment and Penalties
The most significant attributes of the U. S. Constitution are the establishment of the rule of law, the creation of a federal system with an exemplary national government, the separation of government powers into three branches that provide checks and balances for each other, its flexibility and the formation of a republican form of government.
In addition, if the people who commit crimes are subject to penalties, there should be no difference in the penalties for government officials. Clearly, the current administration has violated their oaths of office and the Constitution, being the supreme law of the land. No One Is Above the Law! Therefore, this proposal suggests the following:
-Tyrannical and treasonous actions on behalf of any government official is a crime, and is punishable by fines and imprisonment as designated by a jury of their constituents and peers, namely the non-elected people of the United States of America of whom these officials are elected to represent.
-Likewise, government officials averting or violating their Oaths of office are considered to be tyrannical and/or treasonous behaviors.
-Any corruption committed by a government official is considered tyrannical behavior.
CONCLUSION
It is our firm belief that governmental officials should abide by the same laws as the People of the United States of America. As our representatives, governmental officials should be expected to hold the People in high regard. Appointed officials are required to take an Oath of Office as elected officials do. Responsibility and accountability to the People of the United States of America should be taken very seriously by anyone holding a government position. We the People hold our Constitution in high regard and expect no less from those serving in government positions. Our Constitution was written FOR the People. Our Founding Fathers dedicated themselves to this effort with character, honor and integrity. We expect nothing less from our governmental officials. Unfortunately, the current administration has degraded these honorable traits by circumventing the Constitution. This is OUR COUNTRY and we want the respect that was given us by our Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution.
