If Obama is reelected, he will legalize the 30MM illegals already here. This will be done by fiat. The Republicans in Congress will contine to do nothing. Chain migration will bring in another 30-50MM within five years, basically Open Borders will become a reality. Most of the new arrivals will pay no income tax and will swear Obeisance to Obama. The tipping point will be reached.
Next up in the cross hairs will be the two term limitation. Might take a few years but you can count on the new arrivals to scream for "Four More Years" and pious, disingenuous calls from the Left to "Let the People Decide." Once that little detail is dispensed with you will have a President for Life. I might add we are but one vote away from a 5-4 Leftist Majority in the Supreme Court. Once that is accomplished, a little "Court Packing" will ensure a Progressive Slant for all time. You think the Republican will object? I think not. I believe they are rapidly becoming irrelevant if not extinct. The military will will continue to be systematically castrated. The emphasis for promotion will be Fealty to Diverstiy.
What you will then have is a de facto Coup D'Etat. No need for a messy revolution in the streets. The revolution and takeover will have been accomplished neatly and legally. You can count on the New Supremes to back it up every step of the way!
I sense a weariness on the part of the Electorate and the Ruling Elites regarding Democracy. Tom Frieden openly admires the Chinese Politboro for its ability to just "get things done". No messy elections to deal with. No need for persuasion. Just do it! Opposition can be .... dealt with.
In the most consequential election of our lifetime, an election where EVERYTHING is on the line, the issue du jour is...contraception? You must be joking. (Sorry, Dear. Pay for your own birth control!) You would think the Republicans would have put someone up who would fight for our traditions, our history, what makes us unique in all the World. Instead, the primary criteria is someone whom the Republican Elites believe might have a chance to be elected. Maybe? Possibly? Hopefully? No storming the Bastille here. The great themes of our history are submerged. At this juncture, you would think we would be having a crusade. Instead, we have a vapid campaign to elect a student body president. The Republicans are delusion if they belileve they shall inherit the Earth with such a pusillanimous approach.
Perhaps, even at this late date, a hero will arrive deus ex machina. Perhaps. Until that happens, I think Obama will roll up Romney like a carpet and our democracy will vanish not with a bang but a whimper. What a sad and pathetic denouement for the greatest country that ever was.
Additionally, Sandra Fluke, a law student at an elite university, doesn't realize, by forcing insurers to pay for all the sex she is having, it actually makes prices go UP for everyone else, including less advantaged and poor people. But of course, in liberals minds, we'll just draw from the never-ending pot of gold that is government. News for liberals: there is no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Get with reality.
if Obama gets to implement everything on his wish list, in five years time there won’t be enough cash left in the Federal Treasury to pay for Sandra Fluke’s contraception, let alone anything else.
As depressing as it is, that is one excellent post.
Well put. I think it's important to recognize that the values of the administration may very well be the values of the majority in this country--including the political class of both parties. The people who do not share the most important of those values are in for a very difficult time.
OY VEY!
Yup.
Mitt: Not Going To Say Outrageous Things About the President
The First Amendment, as pertaining to relationships beween religion and the state, has been re-interpreted (i.e., turned on its head) at the instigation of the Anti-Christianity Litigants’ Union (ACLU), and other like-minded activists, to ban all expressions of Christian beliefs or practices from the “public square” and whatever might be considered “goverment” or public spaces and/or functions. Jefferson, on the other hand, intended “separation of church and state” as an assurance to the Danbury Baptist Association that the government of the new nation then a-bornig would not interfere with their practice of their religion as they saw fit. The notion that the general public or the State should be shielded from any influences or expressions of the religions of the people would have been appalling to him.
“an election where EVERYTHING is on the line, the issue du jour is...contraception?”
Good post , but this is by design. Acclimating us to Obamacare, mandating free services for all. Food control is next.
Whites, Asians, Hispanics, males, females, blacks, gays, straights and bisexuals are to be represented on the bench in the proportion that they are found in the population.
So if dogs make 26 percent of the US population does that mean there should be dogs on the bench?
What happened to merit?
Your post really made me stop and think. Your argumentation is solid and your predictions seem sound enough based on what we know about the progressives and their philosophy.
Sadly, I can only see one way out of the current madness, assuming that Obama retains power, and that is destruction from an outside force. It makes me wince even to think about it. An EMP attack, outright warfare from Islam, a severe solar flare... any of those might just be enough to wreck the central government sufficient enough for the people to reform themselves locally and reconstruct the institutions that protect liberty. Of course, this would be horrible beyond words, just as the full realization of the left to take over the United States would be horrible beyond words - probably far worse than the 25 million deaths gleefully predicted by Bill Ayers that would be needed for his ilk to take over.
God help us.
What is happening to America reminds me of a statement by Willim Penn. “Men must be governed by God or they will be ruled by tyrants.”
