Is this
"giveaway" constitutional?by Mac
Tue Oct 14, 2008 12:06Allowing
for
Article 10 of
Bunreacht na hEireann
(Constitution of the Republic of Ireland), is the legislation
connected with this giveaway constitutional?
For
example, Article 10.1 reads:
"All natural
resources, including the air and all forms of potential
energy, within the jurisdiction of the Parliament and
Government established by this Constitution and all royalties
and franchises within that jurisdiction belong to the
State subject to all estates and interests therein for the
time being lawfully vested in any person or
body."Has Shell To Sea (or anybody else) looked
into the constitutional aspects of the present legal
arrangements being used to implement the "giveaway"?
If
not, it might be a great mistake to simply assume that the
legislation in question "must" be constitutional (just because
it exists)?
Unconstitutional "law" -- and there's
plenty of it about these days -- is illegal law; and, as such,
it's use is not "valid" for any purpose other than corruption
(and all of the many forms of serious crime closely associated
with political, legal, and corporate
corruption).

"Stop throwing the
Constitution (basic law of the land) in my face," Bush
screamed back.
"It's just
a goddamned piece of paper!""Mr. President,"
one aide in the meeting said. "There is a valid case that the
provisions in this law undermine the Constitution."
"I
don't give a goddamn," Bush retorted. "I'm the President and
the Commander-in-Chief. Do it my way."
