If this liar is reelected America is finished!
America is finished now. It would take generations to recover from the economic dilemma we are in now. When the market crashes and the flow of free money to the freeloaders stop all hell will break loose.
s you people are.
A fact I heard on the radio today was that in the last 140 years, only 1 DEMOCRAT President has ran for reelection and lost; and that was Jimmy Carter.
/Ugh!
The ethical and personal worldview of the demographically average American resident has changed profoundly from my upbringing (50's, 60's,), a thing virtually impossible to describe to a more recent generation. A change that has even accelerated in recent years.
For instance, when the local LEO nabbed you for being somewhat inebriated on a Saturday night he would take you home, rather than .... For instance, JFK, himself a Democrat, implored the citizen to think of his country in deference to what he can exploit from it. What politician (including Republicans) will even mention, or practice, that today, Schumer, Boxer?
During GWB's administration we said over and over (here on FR) he was the last hope to articulate the association of freedom, human dignity, and citizen responsibility. But for some reason he was deficient. I think it was Gorbachev who stated because America has lost its authoritarian enemy it will lose its identification of what itself is about.
Riding back home today I was trying to clarify this tragic apostasy in my home nation, and the concept of "honor" came up. It has been frequently invoked in platitudes, but never really struck me as to its significance; until the LEFT, Clinton, Pelosi, Obama, the avaricious Jewish-Leftist cabal behind him, Soros, Emmanuel, Sunstein, Harvard, the Brookings Institution, NYT, ABC, CBS etc. clearly highlighted its meaning, i.e. the self-honesty, courage, and integrity which permit an individual, you or I, to truly respect others, be forthright with them, and commit to the rule of treating others as one would have them treat you - the opposite of course of hypocrisy.
My Protestant upbringing still allows me to identify in other world views, the Semitic religions, Islam and Judaism, Communist authoritarianism (the abandonment of personal property), and even to some degree Roman Catholicism (e.g.the Pope, although personally have found RC returning as much to Christian fundamentals as some Protestant organizations) the transfer of personal responsibility to top-down authoritarian mandate, rather than the self analysis and initiative which Christ, a kind of Rebel to the Pharisees, taught (and interestingly Gautama Buddha.)
No matter how one cuts it, politics, now even in America, is the extortion of the individual. How obvious has that become? And we have few remnants of courage to refute it.

Nikita Boehner: You. What’s your suggestion?
Sweating RINO: [visibly nervous] More money, staff and perqs to all the other RINOs who have retreated & regrouped, and their chiefs of staff, too, and shoot the Party dissenters.
Stammering RINO: [Boehner moves down the line to another man] M-m-m-make some examples. D-d-d-d-d-d-deport the families of the Tea Party d-d-d-deserters -
Nikita Boehner: [turning away] Yes, that’s all been done.
Commissar Tumblindiceky: [from the back of the room, sqeaking] Give them hope!
[Boehner turns around and strides down the line]
tdsky: Here, the men’s only choice is between Democrats’ bullets and ours. But there’s another way. The way of courage. The way of love of our country. We must publish the newspapers again. We must tell magnificent stories, stories that extol sacrifice, bravery. We must make them believe in the victory. We must give them hope, pride, a desire to fight. Yes... we need to make examples. But examples to *follow*. What we need...
[he glances quickly at Boehner]
tdsky: ... are heroes.
Nikita Boehner: [Boehner looks around, then leans in closer to td] Do you know any heroes around here?
Yes, comrade. I know one. Her name is Sarah Palinsky.
This gloom and doom stuff is for the birds. This guy has quit before even starting. The Tea Party is laying low, I know, I’m one of them. I have stood in the rain with signs when I thought my presence would matter. As it turns out, It didn’t matter. The huge rallies in D.C. didn’t make a lick of difference to the Administration or it’s agenda. What DID make a difference was at the polls. I believe the Tea Party will not waste it’s time on things that don’t change anything it will wait for those that do. I’m not quitting, I’m just biding my time ( Tea Partiers don’t get paid for protesting like unions do ) for something that will change things like elections do. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. That is why the tea Party is not putting on massive rallies right now. But after 9/12 we know there are lots of us out there. They and I will use our resources for something that will produce the best outcome. Hoping for us to go away or telling us how weak and insignificant we are will not make it so.
I can guarantee you this, those anonymous Aides to politicians in the Dark City actually do see threads such as this one.
Word is getting out. They’ll all have to grow a pair if they want to continue to put food on their tables.
Election fraud...IMHO..its THE ONLY way Dems get elected in most districts in a country that is predominantly right leaning. Its how Red states wind up with Blue Federal representation.
If this article is correct...its massive...and may even involve th ejudiciary.
.this business of election fraud is anything but trivial. Its not 400, 4000, or even 40 THOUSAND votes...try 400,0000.....
http://dailycaller.com/2011/01/12/acorn-leader-avoids-prison-for-voter-fraud-conspiracy/
Its the fraud.And its bipartisan -to the extent the oligarchs think it works for them. And if We the People havent dealt with it by then...a whole bunch of us Freepers will be sitting around the day after elections wondering just what happene
The writer's assertion is also contradicted by various polls which show Obama to be vulnerable against almost ANY GOP candidate.
It may very well be that the electorate will remain as stupid as it was in 2008. Hey, if it happens, it happens, and we're that much closer to civil war in this country.
But hysterical, panicked fear-mongering such as this serves no constructive purpose that I can see.
If Mr. Longstreet sees it this way, then is it not incumbent upon him to announce his candidacy -- rather than bitch and moan?
Oh no. Obama's gonna win. Guess I might as well stay home.
You can take this defeatist pessimist article and shove it.
What a depressing, defeatist article.
One of those reasons is that we could do it again.
On one side are the patriots who certainly would fight and die for Constitution and country.
On the other side, the side currently in power and in charge of the media, appears to be more than willing to give them reason. It was, after all, obama's good buddy and ghost writer Ayers whose plan involved killing 25 million Americans.
Why is this a bad thing?
