Krauthammer: Obama Admitted To Medvedev That Second Term Will Be Hard Left
Real Clear Politics ^ | 3/27/12 | Staff

Posted on 03/27/2012 10:45:37 AM PDT by Nachum

KRAUTHAMMER: I think that the key word here in that exchange was Obama saying to the Russians, 'this is my last election.' It's not just that 'I have another election and I'll be occupied with other issues, let's talk about this. It's a complicated want in December.' 'This is my last election.' That's his way of saying with a nod and a wink, 'Look, you guys have a free hand because you run a dictatorship, your elections are rigged. Well, ours aren't rigged, but once I get passed my last election, I'm unleashed. I can do anything

He admitted that he’s planning to finish his last term in an underground bunker.

Better get him leashed double d*mn quick, or there’ll be nothing left of you. Or us, for that matter.

Harder left than his first term?

I said that if he won in 2008 he would make Jimmy Carter look like a fiscal genius. Jimmy Carter loves Barack because now that Obama has come along Carter is no longer the worse President ever.

I say no second-term for the Innocent Bystander

Weren’t these the people who said that Obama would moderate after the 2010 elections?

He is already about as hard left as one can get.

When there is nothing to hold him back he very clearly wants to destroy the country.

This is what happens when we elect a “citizen of the world” instead of an American.

What the hell has THIS term been?

Obama isn’t going to win a second term. Americans will wake up and fire his sorry, socialist ass next November.

If any of our enemies want to make a move now is the time. This guy is a disgrace. He should be impeached for this. I solemly swear to uphold the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic but I’ll be “flexible” if I can just get re-elected and you understand I have to put up a front for the voters so cut me some slack on this missile defense system thing until I am safe after the election, so help me god. And with his hand on the bible no less.

Obama , more truthful to the motherland than the American people . The American people only tolerated until they reelect him. Had to return those Russian spies to the motherland, fast, before they ratted him out.

'this is my last election...

Knowing the thug, I sense a presumption of knowledge about its outcome.

He is already about as hard left as one can get.

..foot on the pedal to the metal, and they ain't no more.

In the normal course of American politics, the second term of a President is a called a lame duck.

Well, I don't think it is rocket science that most Americans know a second “O” term will be nothing of the kind.

How much intellect did it take to foresee that “O” would be accountable to NO ONE in his first term ... and would be even less accountable that THAT if he has the luck to make a 2nd term?

Nothing could be worse for America. And with the very clear understanding that, what is bad for America is bad for the rest of the world, nothing can be worse for the allies of America.

Their transcript misses an important opening statement by Krauthammer:

Reporter: Of course, we’ve had a rather complicated relationship with Russia for the last few years....

Krauthammer: “I think the relations with Russia have been rather uncomplicated the last three years. We have been giving them everything, and we got basically nothing in return.”

I only wish/hope that that is true but unfortunately I fear it is not. The actions he could and might attempt would make Chavez, Castro and many others look like altar boys by comparison.

I’m starting to think this was a planned leak to shore up his liberal voters, many of whom might be thinking about staying home in November.

“He admitted that he’s planning to finish his last term in an underground bunker.”

You’re crazy! Haven’t you been paying attention to what’s posted here?! If the nominee is Romney, (and that’s EXTREMELY likely), then he’s no better than Obama, so many freepers won’t vote!

That’s right, they don’t mind seeing Obama re-elected because Romney would subvert our defenses for the Russians, and appoint uber liberal Supreme Court justices, among other things.

You better get with the program.
