Why the Obama Administration Will Implode In Weeks
FOX NEWS ^ | 09.01.09 | Kevin McCullough

Posted on 09/01/2009 7:31:36 PM PDT by jodiluvshoes

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.

Nothing more vicious than a cornered 'rat.

That Swine Flu epidemic may be so bad that we'll need martial law imposed across the country. Just sayin'.

Then you should have called HI for a copy of the bc and we wouldn't have had to go through all this. I'm not holding my breath, but CNN has called an end to the honeymoon so maybe I'll just cross my fingers.

They won’t go down easy that’s for sure. I doubt the true believers will allow him to be voted out of office or leave office after 8 years without violence.

Obama's administration won't implode until he hits 40% approval, currently Ras has him at 46 Zog at 42. At that point he becomes a drag on any politician associated with him. Members of congress wishing to remain members of congress will have to go out of their way to show that they are not Obama and Pelosi's "Stooges". If he can stay above 40% only the red districts they picked up in 2006 are in jeopardy and there is little chance of loosing the senate. If he hits 40% over all, with the strongly disapprove likely greater than the overall approve, he is in danger of giving away normally blue districts and safe Senate seats. If he thinks he has trouble with the blue dogs now, wait until then. See what happened to Bush when his numbers plummeted before the 2006 election with the "Gang of 14".

There are ideologically pure socialists in congress who will stick with Obama no matter what the polls. But with the exception of Reid they are all in normally safe or completely safe districts. So reps like Pelosi, Waxman, Conyers and Frank can afford to be lunatics. The one and two termer reps who's districts went for Bush in 2004 are going to have to start worrying about their jobs or getting their resumes up to date.

Really? When did they say this? Maybe they are tired of being told what they can and can't say. Maybe they have kids and stopped to think what this country will be like when Obama is done. Or maybe they are looking for a few viewer. I hope your right.

8 Years? You can’t possibly think he could be reelected
in 2012, unless he has his Marxist state established and there is NO election.

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 . . .

He just outlined the Democrat plan (along with a widespread afroturfing push-back effort).

And expect the State Run Media to come on like a freight train as soon as Congress is back in session.

With my tinfoil hat on, I will say that I truly believe Obama's goal is the destruction of the country. Declaring martial law at some point might not "achieve anything" and might be a mistake and might totally fail -- but it would shake our foundations and cause a massive shockwave to hit this country. Lots of damage, pure and simple.

Just because he hates us. No goal. Just because.

Speaking of astroturfers, look at this little gem I found while reading the SEIU Michigan bylaws.

We must organize unorganized Healthcare workers, extending to them the gains of unionism while securing control over the Healthcare industry.

SEIU bylaws pdf

Be sure to read and distribute at will. Lots of interesting little factoids in there.

Considering the voter-registration fraud and the actual voter-fraud (by public “Servants”/”Officials”) in the recent Presidential election, what makes you think there won’t be an “election”?

I seem to remember a Russian saying something along the lines of “It does not matter who votes, it matters who _counts_ the votes.”

Right now, it is a good thing there aren’t terms limits on Congress. Their reelection problems are the only thing that will keep them in check.

Really! I take solace to still be able to sleep at night knowing that we still have most of the military on our side.

The usurper-in-chief may not uphold and defend the constitution, but our men and women in uniform will.

He could if the Republicans run Bob Dole III (McCain being Bob Dole II).

Most especially the ‘retired’ ones, they won’t be as pressured by peers and/or commanders to “just follow orders.”

Interesting viewpoint. I would only take issue with #4, obama's integrity being tarnished. I don't think obama has any integrity to tarnish. obama has shown himself to be a liar that regularly reverses himself on statements and promises. He ran on a bi-partisan, lets all work together plank...then adopted an "I won" attitude and showed his socialist and fascist colors. He seems determined to ram his agenda and vision for America down our throats, whether we want it or not (and most Americans do not).

I didn't think Americans would elect a muslim so soon after 9/11, especially one with a name that was so close to Osama.

Less than you might expect. Remember he personally has few hard core supporters. The movement has supporters and if Obamas high negatives are seen as being detrimental to the movement, under the bus he goes. Ask Che and Trotsky what happens to charismatic spokesmen who get in the way of the movement.

... this is why Atlas Shrugged, isn’t it?
The ‘non-producers’ are in position to demand payment to authorize who may ‘produce’, regardless of actual production output or quality.

This teacher is the PERFECT example of what our Congress does, in my opinion. They say, give us money [payment/taxes] and you’ll get this [a grade boost/government services] and I’ll do that [donate to charity/invest it in social security for your future] with it; in reality, though, they just pocket the money.

It would be a miracle.

The odd confidence just amazes me.

Are these the same ‘confident’, oh-so-pragmatic people that called me an alarmist and extremist almost three years ago when I put forth that 0bama was a hard-left idealog, and a very real threat to freedom?

Retarded confidence is certainly not needed right now. It’s dangerous denial wrapped in mutant optimism.

It is much more likely that we will have an ‘event’ to create utter chaos and provide reason for the first ‘clamp-down’ in American history.

This is far from over, America. The commies are just warming up.

You think he’s on ‘vacation’. Let me tell you, they are feverishly plotting their next course of action, their next assault on you.

Something big is coming.

Firmly beleive just as diverteach posted, the Mil will not assist nobama in America’s destruction.

If nobama is really stupid enough to light the fuse, which I doubt, he and his crowd will be consumed before America is damaged beyond recovery. His voters, for the most part will STFU and not risk life and limb to defend him, although the militant and extreme leftist blacks may to their worthwhile desimation (a long needed clensing that will help most blacks get out of the trap they find themselves in).

Are you kidding? The left in this country will fall over themselves to get to Dhimmitude. Yale will ban and rip apart books for them, their Chaplain will “understand” honor killings. Public schools will get Muslim Prayer rooms while Christians who use the word Jesus on a note will get kicked out of school. Its already happening.

You might be very surprised how many will do ass they are told. That is what they are trained to do from day one.

I don't think we will have any real elections in 2012. ACORN will count the votes. Black Panthers and SEIU will be joined with the Civilian Security Force to monitor the voting in the booths.

There will be no opposition TV ads, no opposition radio, films, books or websites (CitizensUnited vs FEC)(Internet Emergency)(FCC diversity). None.

Of course the unions, moveon et al will still be able to run ads because of some exemption or something.

Illegal voting will be rampant and unchecked.

I fully expect a late October "Reichstag fire". The Left always pulls hoax crimes like that. DNC in Denver was just a teaching moment to them.

If Obama gets what he wants, I doubt we will see anything resembling a real election.

And in 2013 one of the top issues is to add 4 seats to the Supreme Court to "modernize it". You can bet on that. There will be no turning back.
