Allow me to educate you. What you describe as TRUE tyranny is the end state. You are foolishly arguing that because we have not arrived at the end state where people are thrown into concentration camps as Roosevelt did then we are not living under tyrannical rule.Like I said you have no idea what TRUE tyranny really is.
It does not take long to get there with "watchdogs" like you snoozing away.
America is not under a tyranny no matter how bad your hyperbole is.
[h=3]Definition of tyranny[/h]Tyranny is usually thought of as cruel and oppressive, and it often is, but the original definition of the term was rule by persons who lack legitimacy, whether they be malign or benevolent. Historically, benign tyrannies have tended to be insecure, and to try to maintain their power by becoming increasingly oppressive. Therefore, rule that initially seems benign is inherently dangerous, and the only security is to maintain legitimacy — an unbroken accountability to the people through the framework of a written constitution that provides for election of key officials and the division of powers among branches and officials in a way that avoids concentration of powers in the hands of a few persons who might then abuse those powers.
You are simply wrong.
See above. The Islamofascist says he has a pen and phone and he will act if the legislature doesn't. He is a tyrant and no one is stopping him. Least of all you leftist "watchdogs" who are just as tyrannical in your thoughts as the fascist is. The only difference between you and him is that he is in a position, unhindered by the pathetic establishment Republicans while you are just some guy on a web site.My proof is the fact you are allowed to make such ridiculous statements online unlike other countries such as Iran, NK, and China. Your proof is....well...nothing.
I agree about the ignorance. I disagree about who is displaying it. I do not believe you care to be educated.Carry on with your "chicken little" comments. They are amusing to see that much ignorance in a post.
Which facts, exactly?The fact is you hate what the president is doing, I get that and agree. But to call it tyranny is simple bad hyperbole and my FACTS prove you wrong.

Try it. But I doubt you will like it.
