Why the Obama Administration Will Implode In Weeks
Fox News ^ | 09/01/2009 | Kevin McCullough

Posted on 09/01/2009 2:36:24 PM PDT by Responsibility2nd

I was the first pundit to predict that Barack Obama would become president. Here's what I think we can expect from this administration in the next six to eight weeks.

Never has an administration had more political firepower at their disposal yet been set to so totally fail in the next six to eight weeks. It is nearly a foregone conclusion. It is nearly unavoidable. And it defies all logic given the sizable majority the administration has in both houses of Congress.

Since I was the first pundit to predict Obama's presidency (back in December 2006) it behooves me to tell you the course I believe the next few weeks will take. Just think, it was only a few months ago that the left looked unstoppable in bringing about their plan to radicalize, nationalize, and federalize America.

1. Health Care's Long and Painful Death

Barring the existing possibility that the Democrats cram a reform bill down the throats of actively protesting Americans through an ultra-partisan process that would shut out conservatives and Republicans from even being allowed to contribute to the discussion, health care reform is dead.

I can’t bring myself to go those sites, unless if it’s to post the spoiler ending of a movie like the 6th Sense, or the end of the Harry Potter series.

Maybe you can give us the highlights you come across?

I remember Zero’s days chiding black America to not succumb to blaming white man and racism for everything... how days have changed now, from BDS to CYA behind excuses about white jealous men.

The Failed Obama Administration ©!

Here's what you do Barack... fire all of your communists and black radical communists and stuff your administration with Clinton and Bush appointees. Ditch the "un-American" Czars and restore the cabinet system. Then, appoint a conservative to the next Supreme Court vacancy.

You will save your reputation and legacy. Ignore this advice and go down in history as the biggest joke to ever occupy the White House...It's your choice, Mr. president. Your legacy is at stake. Leadership is required...

I hope he’s right. Looks like things are going the direction he predicts after the August debacle for Zero. Poor guy didn’t even get a decent vacation. :-))

I, too hope he is right, but I doubt he is.

Agreed. I'm not sure he should be bragging about that one!

0bama was a artificial media creation to begin with much like Paris Hilton.

The problem with that is, people eventually get tired of you, then the media that built you up, tears you down. And the next thing you know your shaving her head on TV or releasing sex tapes to get attention again.

A neighbor of mine is a Democrat and State representative. He told me the other day that Democrat politicians have been grumbling amongst themselves that while they have been facing hostile crowds Obama is enjoying his vacation and is insulated from angry protesters

Obama is smart enough to stay away from the voters. He's be chewed up like dog food at one of those things!

Why the Obama Administration Will Implode In Weeks...why it is a forgone conclusion.

Oh spare me. I don't see anything in the article describing how president urkle's administration will "implode." Here are my bullet points:

-Liberals don't give a damn what he does.

-The "poor" don't care who he taxes, or care how much.

-The "poor" don't even comprehend what the deficit is or means.

-Illegals don't care about cap & trade.

-The "uninsured" have all the healthcare they need, so they don't care what Bama does.

Squeezing the middle class might make a ripple, but most believe the lying media and they're too busy watching American Idol. Sorry to be so cynical.

Looks like an ex-girlfriend of mine when I saw her years later. Good thing she didn’t see me.

Since they were talking about it in 2004, it is hard to imagine that someone didn’t predict it before the dems won in 2006.

If I can remember that far back, in those days regarding domestic policy it was pretty hard to see any difference between Republicans and Democrats.

Bush wanted to drive the nation into bankruptcy. Obama wants to show Bush to be a piker. That's the only difference. Probably today Bush would argue that he could have outspent Obama if he only had the time.

And it defies all logic given the sizable majority the administration has in both houses of Congress.

This is where the train of thought gets derailed.

The reason Obama is imploding is because both houses of Congress are in Democrat hands. He was emboldened to show his true colors, which are disastrous for the country. If he were only remotely held in check by a vigorous GOP, he might have some sympathetic support from the crowd of GOP haters; but he has no one to blame, thus the failures go right to him.

It's completely logical!

Is it my imagination or are there less Obama bumper stickers these days?
I am living in liberal Portland,Oregon so that would be an indicator of lagging support amongst democrats.
I can just imagine this conversation:
What are you doing this weekend?
Oh I am trying to sell my car and I have to get that sticker off my car without damaging the paint.

The danged fool dims actually thought they were winning elections because the American people believed they had the right ideas. Actually the American people were danged fools who thought every single thing that has gone wrong since the end of the last ice age was George Bush’s fault just because the danged fools in the media told them so. The majority of the people were too danged foolish and lazy to sort out the truth from all the lies they were being peddled by danged fools on the alphabet news channels. Now we are all paying for their danged foolishness, goshdarn it!

We must not sit back and eat the popcorn. We must work to get Conservatives in the House and Senate. We must not rest—we must keep up the pressure—don’t give them a moments rest to re-group and re plan. We must pull the teeth of the Communist/Leftist power in Congress. We must keep the media off ballance with the facts. We must work to keep MSNBC honest. We must support Sarah Palin—because it makes them crazy. Keep the laughter coming in the form of jokes and parodies anything to make Obama a laughing stock (not hard to do really). We must be ready to defend the Constitution in a minutes notices 21st Century Minutemen. We are not armed with muskets but computers and the Truth.
