Since InTrade requires that “investors” actually purchase shares and trade them, for real money, no one in the US can participate any longer. So, the odds are driven by people outside the US. Having lived overseas for many years, I don’t believe folks in other countries just don’t understand the subtleties of our politics. They certainly don’t “get” the electoral college and our form of federalism. I know, for instance, that Israelis are convinced that Obama can’t lose.
Ghandi was a shmuck. His sage advice to the new state of Israel: passive resistance. The little pissant was lucky his opponent was the humanitarian British Empire.
Just to add to how much this can hurt, we put in $4000 for 2009-2010 and used every bit of it covering my wife’s chronic problems and two children. What’s that, almost a $1600 tax saving for the year?
As the others have pointed out, no way short of impeachment. But, listen to Newt. Elect a Republican House this year and they can refuse to appropriate funds for the health care monstrosity and any other crazy proposal for national suicide Obama pushes.
OK. If we don't burn it, how about some serious suggestions on a public protest to get our politicians' attention, get out in front with the media and show that there are angry, mature Yankees that intend to hold on to there country.
I'll put it on my website. Haven't posted anything in a while, but think we need to start a mass counter-movement where we burn teh mexican flag at every event and show how pissed off we really are.
