Is America sliding toward autocratic rule? This is the essential question of Barack Obama's presidency. Mr. Obama vowed to "fundamentally transform" the United States. Despite his incompetence and economic failure, the president is making good on his central promise: the destruction of our constitutional republic. He is trying - piece by painful piece - to reverse the legacy of the Founding Fathers. Conservatives have underestimated him at their peril. For Mr. Obama is not simply an inept, liberal president in the mold of Jimmy Carter. He is an ideological revolutionary who seeks to sweep away traditional America.

There is no doubt that the RATS are behind the trashing of our constitution. The assault on the 2nd amendment,the first amendemnt re. speech and religion. Obama has consistently appointed czars to manage large portions of the government all in violation of the onstitution. Recently, Supreme Court Justice Ginsberg goes before Egypt ian media and tells them that the new Egyptian government should follow the South African constitution and not the US constitution. Just last week the NY Times had a major article describing the US constitution as outdated and irelevent. Give Obama another four years and don’t be surprised to see a major push to do away with the two term for presidents. Its getting late and with a corrupt MSM, before we know it our freedom will become a thing of the past.
I agree with you, in part. If Romney is nominated, I will vote for him, but I don’t have to like it. It will be like having a dental appointment.
The crux of the problem is that there were more than enough stupid, envious, socialistic, racist, brain dead people to elect Obama to office and they are still out there voting and breeding.
One way or another, Obama will someday be gone from the White House.
But the kind of people who put him in office will not be going away.
As I’ve said, I’ll vote for Romeny if he’s nominated, but it will be like taking caster oil. I cannot even think of 4 more years with that marxist grifter in our whitehouse and his dictator wife.
Obama is an ideologue, but he is not the one in charge. He didn’t magically go from community organizer to President practically overnight. What the Obama reelection will mean to those in power is that they no longer need to fear the armed serfs. Obama’s second term will be the official end of the great era of the American yeoman and the return of the historical status quo, aka tyranny.
Of course it does.
It is only one of many factors contributing to Obama's 2008 election victory and his persistent high popularity in spite of his dismal performance, but it is a factor.
In the 2008 election 96% of black voters voted for Obama. Various polls show that his suport among blacks is still above 90%. Obama could admit on national TV that he is a muslim and really does want to destroy America and institute Sharia law and blacks would still support him.
Feb 1, 2012:"The most recent ABC News-Washington Post poll found Obama’s approval rating among blacks stands at 91 percent, higher than any other surveyed demographic category. He won 96 percent of the black vote in 2008."

“As I’ve said, I’ll vote for Romeny if he’s nominated, but it will be like taking caster oil. “
Agreed.
However, it seems for every 2 of us, who will vote anyone but Obama, there is a freeper who will stay home. Staying home is as good as a vote for Obama.
I’m in your boat. I’ll enjoy voting for Romney like a root canal if I have to, but I sure will instead of contributing to another Obama term.
Wasn’t talking about the 2008 election. I agree with you wholeheartedly that white guilt put him in office.
I was relating the current 50% approval rating to government reliance any more than racism. People have seen that they can vote themselves from the treasury, and they’re going to continue to do so.
Taxpayers are screwed.
I hope no freeper will stay home. As terrible a choice as it would be if we were stuck between Romney and Obama, it is especially in that situation that we need every patriot America at the polls. If we have a choice between an anti-American bigot from the far left in our White House for four more years, or an elitist from the far left moving from Massachusetts to our White House, then we need the most conservative possible Congress to slow down the White House, regardless of the winner. I almost certainly will not vote for Romney, but I will vote. The Senate and the House matter too much to risk giving either Romney or Obama a supportive liberal Congress.
The other President that came from Illinois started the process to destroy the republic. O-bomb-us is just finishing the job.
When you promise to rob Peter to pay Paul, you’re guaranteed to get Paul’s approval and vote.
The sheer number of people who want stuff they didn’t earn is getting larger and larger. There is still a work ethic and pride in it, but more and more people are willing to take whatever handouts are given to them.

“We are at a fork in the road. Do you want to take the bumpy uphill road, (Romney), or just be done with it and drive off a cliff, (Obama)?”
If those are the choices, I get off the road. I’ll take a hard right and head into the woods. Then I will prepare to fight the battle that must be fought.
I’ll write in somebody else before voting for either one of those bastards.
It will be a shame if romney gets the nomination and those who don’t completely agree with him, stay at home. They will surley be voting for obama, the grifter in our whitehouse.
So folks out there, who DON’T want romney, should he be elected,,,GET OUT AND VOTE FOR HIM, he’s better than the grifting marxist and his dictator wife who now reside in OUR whitehouse. With over 90 percent of the blacks STILL wanting him president, we’d better stick together and vote for someone who likes America, even if we don’t agree with him. Obama, HATES America and even 90% blacks who think he’s “theirs”. He ain’t.
The single greatest threat to out great nation is the American media.....by far.
BUMP! BUMP!
