Why the 'O'-ministration will implode in weeks

I recognize the phenomenon, but am slightly more optimistic. Grab a couple of hundred random Americans, and there's a potential Todd Beamer in there somewhere.

I am too.

Almost all communist takeovers throughout history have involved a docile, disarmed populace that had never tasted freedom or prosperity before. The months since Obama ascended to power can be described in two words: overreach, and backlash.

I agree with the premise of the article above, we are weeks away from major upheaval, nine-twelve will be a cathartic moment for this administration, and they will either get the message and back down, or suffer dire consequences.

The czars will replace the congress and SEIU, ACORN and AmeriCorps will become Obama's army - the coup is realized.

No one has explained to me how these czars have any power or where it comes from? I really don't get it. I'd think the framers had enough sense to avoid appointed offices who could wield power over the people so how can these czars do anything legally?

Obama was elected by the media. Not only was the MSM in the tank for Obama from the very beginning, but they helped McCain look like a babbling idiot ...not that at times he needed the help. The only reason why McCain got nearly half the votes was Sarah Palin ..who really reached many of those now going to tea parties and protesting at town hall meetings. The media also helped sell Bush hate for the previous 8 years. Ironically now that the economy is really going to heck they are silent.

Fortunately people are waking up and are getting the truth from outside the MSM. They are now seeing what the MSM did not report during the campaign and us continuing to hide and they do not like what they see. An inevitable tax hike will doom Obama and the Democrats.

[SaintDismas]

Yeah, but what do you think about that slappy cutter thingy with the “graty”? It actually looks appealing to me.

A couple of women repub senators from Maine as well.

[PapaBear3625]

That’s certainly true too, but I meant something even worse: governmental interference in our freedoms, which would prevent us from getting rid of Obama “care” or any other bill or act even if we want to.

That could easily be done by packing the Supreme Court with Obama cronies. Any attempt to overturn OCare would be "unconstitutional".

[Mike Darancette]

.....and know that they cannot win that one.

It will be for the good of the people; let government protect your retirement. The RATs are only a couple votes from passing Cap and Trade and nationalized medicine so I have little faith in the logic of the people.

The government figures that the money is partially theirs now since it was tax deferred.

[NCjim]

Technicalities like legality are mere gnats to Democrats - easily ignored.

Did you see a little comedy skit McCain performed on some TV program a few weeks before the election? I *think* it was on 60 Minutes or some other news show, and it was a film made at some capitol hill function with members of both parties in attendance. Anyhow, in it he was joking around about BHO, something about "He can run later! This is MY turn!" and the audience laughed.

(Does ANYONE else remember this, or did I hallucinate it? It was some time in October 2008, I swear.)

There is a school of thought on FR re:Triangulation. Both democrats and republicans want the exact same thing (decreased US sovereignty in favor of NGOs they and their whelps can run, a powerful government with more control over people's lives,etc) and while some pretend to be against these goals, it's just a lie to get votes. Once in office, both democrats and republicans vote in favor of more centralization, more federal power, more intrusive government, less defense of US sovereignty, etc.The republicans move more slowly towards the true goals of both parties-but democratic and republican administrations both move towards those goals.

I looked at McCain on screen, thought about all I'd read here on FR that used BHO's OWN WORDS (book and leaked speeches) which proved he is an anti white, antiChristian socialist who intended to create a civilian force to do God knows what to US citizens, and I thought, "It's all a g-d-n joke to that POS. He knows we're are in danger of being enslaved, and he doesn't give a s-t because he's rich and thinks he and his ugly stubby legged pudgy daughter will be just fine. He could care less about the USA or the people."

I knew when I saw that stupid skit on TV that all our worst surmises about triangulation are true. Before, I was just 90% sure it was true-now I know: By and large,pretty much ALL the people in government (elected and appointed) are the enemy of the citizens of the USA. God help us .

[Roccus]

Q. More importantly, what will they do to retain their grip on power?

A. The 2010 census.
With WH (ACORN) control of the census and the massive re-districting and gerrymandering that will follow, many new, safe Rat seats will be established in the House for the 2012 election and beyond.

[melsec]

Yes I agree hence the second sentence in my post!

Here’s how 0bama is going to get out of the mess he’s created: According to a recent issue Aviation Week and Space Technology (I wish I could cite to an exact issue—can someone help?) the DoD has recently ordered 10 to 12 30,000 lb. “bunker buster” bombs from Boeing with 4 to be delivered asap. This tells me he is going to “bomb the asprin factory” either in N. Korea or Iran to deflect attention from the healthcare mess and attempt to improve his popularity. My person opinion with respect to this is he could end up starting world war III. Yet another parallel to the 30’s and 40’s of the last century....

self ping!

I'll never believe Obama is the brain behind the organization, so I have to ask: is he being deliberately set up by Soros-types as a fall-guy?

If the goal is to destroy the U.S. as a military and economic power, what better way than to set up an individual whose inevitable fall will result in a permanently divided, violence-torn population? If the administration falls, the Dims will forever blame the "Right" for the collapse (no matter how terrible the admin's failures might be). I don't know if that will turn into fights in the street, but I can't see it leading to a functional government and society. We'll chase our own tails into insignificance.

But as Rush has always said, he doesn’t want a society without liberals because everyone needs to be reminded of what they are and what a better way than to see them.

Back in 94 after the GOP took over congress and the USSR was dissolved Rush said "That communism was dead except for some die hard college professors on campi and we should keep them around for laughs etc "

Wonder if he still stands by that statement cause it sure doesn't seem dead to me

A good portion of the American people are completely taken over by marketing.

Do you believe marketing (David "Goebbels" Axelrod) or your own lying eyes? You can't hide double digit unemployment or no SS increases for the next two years (something Obama has nothing to do with but will be blamed for) or increased taxes when the Bush tax cuts are sunsetted.

And all it would take would be another major terrorist attack on US soil to destroy all trust and faith in our current CIC. Obama has already issued an ultimatum to Iran that by September they must come to the negotiating table or be hit by tough sanctions. What happens if he can't stop the Iranian nuclear program and Israel decides to launch a preemptive strike?

The Community Organizer in Chief has always tried to avoid making decisions for fear of offending one party or another. He wants to be loved. Unfortunately for Obama, the buck stops in the WH. This country is going to face some very tough decisions in the next few years with huge debt and the entitlement programs going bust in a decade. The status quo is not an option.

Heard the same song back in the summer of '93

Yep and that is how the Reps took over control of the House after 40 years straight of Dem control.

[uncbob]

all that needs to be done is the electricity shut off for a few days and Marshall law declared and check points set up on all major roads.

That happens the inner cities will explode in rioting

In addition there ain't enough troops at home to enforce it

Democrats target your 401(k)-- Your pre-tax annual contribution to a 401(k) will be taxed under a plan considered by House Education and Labor Committee Chairman George Miller, D-Calif., and Rep. Jim McDermott, D-Wash., chairman of the House Ways and Means Subcommittee on Income Security and Family Support.

Worse yet, instead of the familiar, tax-deferred plan which typically invests in diversified mutual funds, in turn investing in private companies, these Democrat leaders want to create a new system of mandatory worker-retirement accounts which would invest only in government debt (bonds) and yield 3 percent per year.

In other words, Miller and McDermott want to redirect trillions of dollars of workers' savings from private investments to fund the ballooning government deficit.

But, man, it felt so good voting for the cool black dude. It was, like, you know, historic.
