The last check and balance on President Obama is the Republican majority in the House of Representatives. He has made clear that he intends to remove that check on his power in the 2014 elections.
Our Founding Fathers wisely provided for a free and independent press as an additional check on government power. But the New York Times, the Washington Post, NBC, CBS and ABC decided they had a better idea. They concluded that it is more important to behave voluntarily like the old Soviet press did under government compulsion, when the socialist party is in power.
Of course, we do still have the freedom in America for now for the alternative media -- talk radio, Fox News, the Wall Street Journal editorial page, conservative websites, blogs and a few other media outlets - to air criticism of the reigning socialist regime. But 50% of the country is ensconced in urban enclaves where listening to or reading views that are not friendly to socialist rule is considered socially unacceptable behavior. So, no alternative views, or checks on the reigning regime, ever break through there. That explains why our once grand, world-leading democracy has now been rendered dysfunctional.
An independent judiciary is also supposed to be a check and balance on the abuse of government power. But as his second term drags on, President Obama will have appointed more and more, and eventually a majority of, all federal judges...

If the Obama economy falls back into recession in the second term, as Obama deserves, it will be the Democratic Party that will be on the verge of extinction...

When the revolt starts, it will be unsurvivable to be of the ruling class, or of media.
May the time soon come when Obamunism is only spoken of in hell.
There may be a few Republicans left, but basically the Republican party is already dead.
Juan McCain had a great part in killing it, but he had a lot of help from others.We are basically a one-party country right now.
I am afraid that my use of the language of America was built from the places where I worked and from the people I worked with and dealt with doing my job.
It doesn’t properly allow me to describe the disgust I feel for this Congress, the Supreme Court under Roberts and for this egotistical posier we have in th White House.
Having worked under Marion Barry, Susan Pratt Kelly ,Barry again and Tony Williams, I had a working knowledge of what Obama would be as President.He has never changed my impression.Cronyism, Corruption, Arrogance , and Ineptitude,have become the Legacy of Obama’s Administration.

Word.
I get this image of Boston Marathon type of terrorist attacks on a weekly basis from malls to schools, from Daytona to Disneyland.
Because America is a one rule party, the WEAK apologetic, do thing, roll over and be the bitch society.
"Moreover, these won't just be any judges but liberal judges chosen with a liberal judicial philosophy that their job is not to follow the law, but to do what they think is right, regardless of the law. What is "right" is going to be Obama's liberal/left agenda."
Thanks to the 17th Amendment, all of this and far more was a predictable certainty. Repeal the 17th.
We already have a one party state. The party just goes by two different names.
What you said is true except, all republican leaders are part of the New World Order, and are nothing but socialist/fascists.
The author of the article thinks the US is a “democracy”. It isn’t, it is a Republic. Sigh.
The last three House Speakers are now convicted felons. Two for stealing and one for Gerrymandering. A trail of assorted miscreants in the Congressional Senate and House. Automatic tax hikes gaveled into law, invisible to the public view. A 3 billion dollar Big Dig that morphed into 23 billion project whose shoddy work has killed one innocent bystander to date and has leaked and crumbled from the day it was finished. And so on.
We had a whiff of hope in Scott Brown, but he soon succumbed to the Siren song of “Go along to get along”.
Now project all this on to a national scale and then hang on.
Spot on
“President Obama’s Plan for a Socialist One-Party State”
FINALLY!!!!
/SARCASM/
What do you mean plans for a one party socialist state... have you seen the Republicans? They ARE Democrats, generally speaking.
Yep -- it might cause enough friction to ignite something.
They are hoping it doesn't, or if it does that they can 'extinguish' it... we shall see.
With the spinelessness of the current Republicans in Congress (both Houses) it might as well be a one party state already.
