King Hussein, his Pampered Poodle at the State Department, and his Spokeswhore threw out the words "Rule of Law" against China and Russia. With the kneepad press providing the soprano voice in their four-part harmony, the barbershop quartet known as The Paper Tigers scowled furiously at Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping, and droned on about the failure of the other superpowers to follow "the Rule of Law".
The Russians and Chinese laughed in their faces.
To the other nations, King Hussein's administration is toothless, feckless, and faltering. To us, American Citizens who respect the Constitution and the rule of law, we add "hypocritical". King Hussein has ignored or violated the Constitution, Federal law and regulations, and American cultural traditions for the past four-and-a-half years. Expecting Edward Snowden to respect the law, or other sovereign nations to respect treaty or tradition, is hypocritical and hubristic.
The fact that the Administration is invoking "the rule of law" to try to catch a man who exposed the Administration's violation of the US Constitution is doubly hypocritical.
Look out on the White House fence, King Hussein. One of your chickens has come home to roost.
