The Europeanization of America. What's ahead if Obama becomes president.

But Mr. Obama will most likely be our most liberal public policy president since Franklin D. Roosevelt.

So where is the new Obama administration likely to take us? Seven things seem certain:

The U.S., military will withdraw from Iraq quickly and substantially, regardless of conditions on the ground or the obvious consequence of emboldening terrorists there and around the globe.

....

Income taxes will rise on middle- and upper-income people and businesses, and individuals will pay much higher Social Security taxes, all to carry out the new president's goals of "spreading the wealth around."

Federal government spending will substantially increase.

Federal regulation of the economy will expand, on everything from financial management companies to electricity generation and personal energy use.

Free speech will be curtailed through the reimposition of imposing the Fairness Doctrine to limit the conservative talk radio that so irritates the liberal establishment.

[FocusNexus]

And this will only be the beginning...

Obama and the Dem Congress will go much much further than this, they won't stop at European Socialism, they'll take us right into Soviet Union style full scale communism. This is not an exaggeration.

[conservative cat]

It will be like Soviet communism with some African instability thrown in. Think Odinga riots.

[DarthVader]

What’s ahead if Obama becomes president?

Civil War II

[mlocher]

The troops will be withdrawn from Iraq just prior to the Fairness Doctrine being instituted. Obama will need the troops to stave off a coup. Little does he know that the troops will go AWOL, just like in the Soviet Union in 1991.

A national Police force equal in strength and funding to the USMC, Army and Navy has been promised.

The American economy collapses and we become a vassal state to Europe once again. Meanwhile, back at home, some very mean and angry people are empowered to kill and take property for the”good of society. Think Zimbabwe, South Africa, Kenya and other joyful garden spots that were once controlled by the British (like the USA) and then turned over to incompetent and thuggish monsters in the name of local control and Democracy!.

So where is the new Obama administration likely to take us?

Here's a hint: Our mode of transportation will be a hand-basket.

[Frantzie]

It’s far worse than that.

WSJ gets it right by the word is Islamification of America like Europe. The same PC leftists & Islamists who ruined the UK are behind Obama. The Muslim Brotherhood is a biggie. They are behind building mosques in Europe and spreading Saudi Wanahabi aka virulent Islam. Obama has connections to the Muslim Brotherhood as well as Hamas. This has destroyed Englandistan which is starting to allow sharia law in the UK.

Obama will have plane and shiploads of Muslims from Somalia, the Middle East and Kenya flooding into America by the millions. Asylum seekers like they were in the UK. They will need welfare, housing, food stamps, medical on and on like they get in Englandistan.

[FocusNexus]

Somewhere in there all guns will be banned and collected — Obama considers the Constitution a “living document” and clearly the 2nd Amendment is unnecessary in the 21st Century — Just wait and see.

[ken21]

“comrade” will become the common greeting.

[April Lexington]

Spot on... a national police force to hunt us down and kill us. Didn't Bill Ayers say that the Chinese told him they'd have to kill 25-30 million Americans to make the socialist revolution successful?

TRUST ME, THERE WON'T BE A CHANCE TO UNDO THIS IN 2010. IT WILL BE TOO LATE.

[Harry Wurzbach]

A national Police force equal in strength and funding to the USMC, Army and Navy has been promised.

No doubt. What exactly is the purpose of that other than to subjugate the people? It's going to be interesting to see those who were so worried about 'Bushitler' listening in on calls originating or terminating in the Middle East justifying their support of the new brownshirts. Wilson had some kind of similar program during his administration and FDR started off his 1st term with such a crew.

[farlander]

Well they can try. Whether they’ll succeed, it’ll be for the history books.

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

Exactly. Democratic socialism exists only for the purposes of waiting out America’s resistance.

Once we fall, nothing will hold it back from showing its true, murderous colors. Socialism will almost immediately become full blown communism the world over.

If al-Bama wins, welcome to the new Dark Ages.

“What’s ahead if Obama becomes president?

Civil War II”

I think that’s the more likely scenario. If we’re going to go down, we should go down fighting.

An important consideration would be where the military would stand. On the side of the government? Or on the side of the people?

[TheFourthMagi]

Tens of millions of pre-born babies will die if Obama steals the White House this November.

[TheFourthMagi]

This is why one of the greatest faults of the Republican party has been the failure to return things like the school system back to the public sector.

Virtually anything under the control of the government can be used by the government as a weapon against the people.

[tubebender]

They will shift military spending to the UN...

[Rembrandt]

Forget about increased domestic oil and gas supplies. The enviro-weenies will be turned loose to put thumbs down on any new sites due to any and all cockamamie plant and animal life that is “precious.”

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

The Fedeal Government will take over the financial system and then the health care system. After that, they’ll ban free speech on the radio and internet, and come for your guns. This has been in the works for a long time.
