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.

“Here’s what they were waiting for-a black guy who sounds like a white guy”

Yup...that's really the central reason this guy was elected.

I suspect you are absolutely correct. This guy had an incredible chance to become great. He's blown it all for communist ideology and glory among the decayed Left. What a waste! I obviously don't support him and never have. But, I can see an opportunity for him to mend his ways and get to the end of his term with his legacy intact. Apparently, he isn't smart enough to understand that his legacy is all that matters and that the communist thing isn't going over very well with America. Clinton figured this out early on and moved quickly to the center. He was re-elected as a result (I didn't support him either)...

America thought it was getting a “blackish” president with fresh new ideas and charisma that would improve America’s image in the world. What they got was a crazy communist radical with the mind of a dictator.

He left out the other pending disaster for the Dems “Comprehensive Immigration Reform”. It will make the health care debate look tame in comparison.

But from his POV he hasn’t blown anything. He has moved the agenda forward by leaps compared to what the Clintons accomplished in 8 years. As for how well it’s going over; he was elected. He and all of his Marxist fellow travelers expect setbacks. Then they regroup and keep pushing it. This has been going on for over 100 years now.

I fully agree. we are witnessing the culmination of over 100 years of communist hopes and dreams. they are frantically advancing their cause in a world that no longer gives a rip about communism. Its a joke, really. They'll pass all this stuff and people will just shrug and go about making money and living well. If the economy sucks, they will blame Obama and throw him out. If Obama reacts by supprexxing our rights, the states will crush the federal government and reform it into a weak minion of the powerful states. Obama can't win and the communists will never achieve their socialist dreams because they run counter to human nature. If the USSR couldn't suppress the world or even itself, Obama has no chance of success. He will just ruin lives and fortunes. But, in the end, the people will win. Just like China, Iran and Russia. In the end, technology will destroy them and their evil communist bullsh*t.

Stay safe...

His POV is the tell tale sign. These affirmative action programs create people who look good (ever see an ugly one?) but do not have the intellectual tools to match the image. Obama is not reading the tea leaves correctly. He is blindly following Marxist doctrine in a frantic attempt to cram this crap down our throats. Everyone he knows in his limited circle of radicals supports this junk. Nobody else in the economy does (except the whores at GE and other corporations who stand to profit from this clown show). The backlash will be GOP control of Congress next year and his early retirement in January 2013.

The bigger problem is that the intellectual input (and drafting) is coming from Congress and Leftist think tanks. Obama hasn't a clue as to how to draft legislation. Nobody in his administration has drafted anything. He's the front man for Pelosi and Reid and that bunch of communists who are advancing their Leftist agenda.

that's why I'm suggesting to Mr. Obama that he can save his legacy by turning sharply to the right, firing the communists and hunkering down for the remainder of his term. Why should he sacrifice himself to the god of communism unless he is totally nuts?

An American surprised that Obama turned out to be a fascist is like a woman being surprised that she got beat up and raped after going to Mike Tyson’s hotel room.

What...you didn’t see the “signs”...?

Because he's totally committed to the cause. (would be one explanation) He is already guaranteed to be fabulously rich and famous if he never does another thing post-WH. If the cause can be significantly furthered (it has already) then he can polish his shinola and come back for a second term any ole time. Or just help in whatever way because if they get their way he will definitely be one of the elites. A hero of the revolution even.

HCR virtually ensures that the Marxist philosophy of collective rights will subsume the concept of individual rights. Anything else they want to do will just be a matter of time if that gets through.

Barry is already trying to manufacture a crisis via his dictator speech regarding the flu today. What a desperate attempt to sway attention from his failings.

" Fee Fi Fo Fum, the great right wing white man conspiracy is at fault says Hillary "

Also in 2003 Hillary said : " I am sick and tried of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration ( President Bush's administration ) somehow you're not patriotic ... We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with this administration ( President Bush's administration ) ....

Of course ? that is ? as long as it's a Republican administration...
I wonder what Janet Napolitiano has to say about Hillary Clinton's 2003 statement ? is Janet ( Secretary of Home Land Security ) going to label Hillary Clinton a domestic terrorist too ? ( according to her ( Janet Napolitiano ) self philosophy.

Janet Napolitioano ? does it ? or does it not make Hillary Clinton a suspect too by her own words ? ?
Here are her own words in sound in case you want to hear it:

Hillary Clinton 2003 ... " I am sick and tired comment

Yes, we get it, Hypocrisy rules the day in this current administration,,,,, free speech for me, and not for thee.

Well, just one sample from today: a diary on Daily Kos claiming that Republicans want the president to be killed.

http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2009/9/2/775455/-Trying-to-get-the-President-KILLED-Dan-Savage-NAILS-it-all,-from-the-Birchers-to-the-Birthers

Some of the comments are really out there, like:

Not just the President they want killed. It's you. It's me. It's every liberal, progressive and Democrat out there. And it's not just of a handful of "loons" on the fringe. It's the entire Republican party. Because every time they remain silent, every time they fail to speak out against these "loons" in their own party, the ones they actively reach out to for votes, they are remaining complacent and thus silently condoning their actions. Now personally, I am not afraid of these people. I am not trying to scare anyone. But let's face facts. With the language they use, as well as their actions, they would rather we not be around any more. It's that complacency that's dangerous, not necessarily the actual violent acts, but the threats of violence.

Or:

Oh, and let me say this to the wingnuts As an African American, and as a citizen of the United States, if anything happened to President Obama or his family, if you thought the Watts riots were bad, if you thought the Rodney King riots were bad, I can tell you, it would be ten times worse. I'm sure other races would join my brothas and sistas, but it will be an all out African American revolution, in which even our grandmothers and grandfathers who fought, bled, and even some died, will be packing heat for the occasion. So if they think they have to fear the "Black President", I can tell them, rest assured, he's the least of your threats. But an army full of angry black folks, that waited 200 years to have something that looks like us in the White House, now thats something to be afraid of. So, just a fair warning to the wingnuts. Try us if you want.

That's the tip of that particular iceberg.

People burning and looting their own neighborhoods? knock yourself out, brotha!

But an army full of angry black folks, that waited 200 years to have something that looks like us in the White House, now thats something to be afraid of.

12%?

Unless they open the prison gates, we'll be facing an army of morbidly obese women, each with several unruly toddlers in tow.

Not afraid of that, sorry.

Well, it’s another part of their delusion. If you look at their comments on the thread (if you can stop laughing long enough) they have somehow come to the conclusion that we supporters of RKBA are all “paranoid cowards” and whatnot, and that we’ll flee at the very sight of teh mighty liberals. Among other things they fancy themselves as psychologists.

Like I said, they’re losin’ it.
