VANITY: My 23 Predictions for Obama’s first term, also Winners/Losers!!
vanity | 11-3-2008 | Savvyguy

Posted on 11/05/2008 8:24:33 PM PST by savvyguy

Winners: Axis of evil- MSM-leftists-Islamic fascists, George Soros, who was behind Obama and gave Obama maximum campaign amount within 24 hours of Obama’s public announcement , Big Union, gun-grabbers, illegals, drug peddlers, criminals

Losers- military, gun-owners, taxpayers, and really all Americans, including those who naively voted for the False Messiah!

Stocks Have Biggest Post-Election Slump! That’s just a starter....

My 22 Predictions:

1. He will get his leftist cronies to vote in the biggest budget, massively cut defenses to help pay for his social programs, and sooner or later will have to increase taxes for working Americans.

2. Recession will deepen, likely slide into a Depression with massive layoffs, scores of banks will fail, financial crises will worsen. It will require more bailout. Obama will prove to be incapable of fixing this problem. The stock market will plunge more. Record number of small businesses will fail.

3. Some Terrorist group will launch an attack on USA soil here to test him. He will sound tough, put on a good show, but slow to retaliate, preferring to negotiate. He will meet with the President of Iran within 2 years. Terrorist attacks against Israel will escalate within 1 year and Israel will likely strike Iran, igniting a major battle in the region. Obams will pretend to chide the Islamic Fascists, but prefer to work through the U.N. He will prove to be wishy washy in “helping” Israel, ultimately betraying Israel.

4. He will avoid pushing very radical laws within first 6 months. Within 1 year of him in office, a significant number of his supporters will be questioning, even criticizing Obama. Within 2 years, the love affair will be over with many Moderates, Independent voters.

4. (continue) Some far leftists will criticize him for not moving fast enough. The liberal media will begin to seriously question him. He will disinvite all media which dare to criticize him. He will love to travel abroad, and remain popular abroad.

5. He will sign laws for more radical gun bans, step by step.

6. Within 4 years, He will decriminalize recreational drug possession, we will see tough laws on crime weakened. Crime rates will soar within 2-3 years. Because he hates prisons, he will see to it to reduce prison population.

7. He & his cronies will assault talk radio with Fairness Doctrine, igniting a great uproar and protest.

8. More pro-gay legislation will pass and signed. There will be attempt to indict a pastor who dare to refuse marrying a gay couple.

9. He will within first year allow the first few millions of illegal aliens to be naturalized, followed by the rest of the 12 million. They will be entitled to health care, social security, etc.

10.He will appoint radical, activist federal judges and 1 or more Supreme Court Justices within 4 years.

11. Within 2-4 years, he will pass his favorite pet project, Global Poverty Act, to share American wealth with the world’s poor.

12. He will work with Congress to pass more legislation funding pre-school programs, and those who receive funding will have no choice but to teach gay-sensitive rainbow curriculum.

13. We will discover he secretly allow William Ayers, Rev. Wright and their ilk to play some roles behind the scene. He will put known leftists, and socialists in many levels, including cabinet and especially sub-cabinet levels.

14. He will begin to dismantle intelligence gathering, or neutralize CIA, and FBI & put his people in there.

15. He will bring most of our troops in Iraq home within 1 to 1 1/2 year.

16. Because of his radical changes, there will likely be another attempt on him.

17. There will be increasing scrutiny of conservative churches, stifling their religious freedom.

18. Because of his adviser’s Brzezinski advice, he may have a conflict with Russia.

19. During his first term, he will be hit with a scandal. He will be shown to have lied to the American people. He will become vulnerable in 2012 to a Republican challenger.

20. It will be shown that ACORN indeed is guilty of voter fraud, some heads will roll or indicted, but ACORN or some similar leftist outfit will continue to be funded.

21. There will be attempt to stop Obama by raising his birth certificate issue again, but that attempt will likely fail, thanks to the MSM.

22. Although John McCain promised to help Obama, he will turn out to support many of his programs. McCain will oppose Obama when he attempts to cut the military and to bring the troops home quickly, resulting in a battle.

23. Obamation turn out to be a blessing in disguise as conservatives are more motivated to reform the GOP and prep good candidates for the next fight. There will be some success to start taking back the House of Representatives and the Senate in 2010.

Top ten “changes you can believe in”:

1. Global welfare
2. Civilian national security force
3. Nationalized “health care”
4. Tax credits for people who don’t pay taxes (spread the wealth)
5. Abortion for everyone
6. Wide open borders - Drivers licenses for illegals - Amnesty
7. Carbon emission caps
8. White House office of Urban Affairs (didn’t make this up)
9. Lifting the trade embargo on Castro’s Cuba
10. Higher taxes

Most of these are not far fetched. But I think Obama will will sink in support within 6 moths of taking office. Most people who voted for him either

1) Knew nothing about him except he spoke well

2) Really expect him to deliver on all those promises of utopia.

When People see the real Obama and realize he will not be giving them all those things he promised they will turn on him quickly.

If he tries to govern from the center, he will lose the support of all those hope and change youth and far leftist who have great socialist expectations from him.

If he tries to govern from the left, he loses the support of the moderate-right independents who voted for him thinking he was a centrist.

Bottom line, the cmapiagn he ran screwed him one way or another. The only way he’s re-elected in 2012 is if the Republican part fails to it’s act together.

9. Lifting the trade embargo on all of the countries that the U.S. has an ongoing trade embargo with, and not just with Cuba.

Yeah, forgot some. Thank you. Liberals, when in power, tend to get impatient and want to move quickly, but I think Obama knew he has no real mandate, so he will likely start slow, then slowly increasing speed.

Picture a frog in a waterpot that boil slowly.

Losers- military, gun-owners, taxpayers, and really all Americans, including those who naively voted for the False Messiah!...including those respondents who answered various polls - 75% who wanted some restrictions on abortion; 80% who preferred building wealth rather than spreading it; 70% who wanted us to drill for our own oil - many of whom voted for Obama anyhow........

“But I think Obama will will sink in support within 6 moths of taking office.”

Remember one key statistic. ‘Zero support’ for Obama = 12% of the ever proud non-prejudiced population. After all, as Jesse likes to say, those folks aren’t capable of prejudice.

There are a variety of major embargoes (what kinds depends upon each country) against: Iran, Cuba, North Korea (pending on what they do about their nuclear facilities in order to disarm all nuclear weapons), Sudan, China, Syria, Myanmar, against certain individuals from Belarus only, Zimbabwe, Ivory Coast, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Charles Taylor from Liberia, and certain persons from the former Yugoslavia. There are also more minor sanctions against a variety of countries.

I'll add a couple:

1. There will be a grab for your retirement funds. Either a “one time” tax on the value of your 401(k) and IRA, or an outright seizure of it ... to be replaced by some worthless bonds that cannot be cashed in or passed on to your heirs.

2. One or more major allies (Israel, Taiwan, Georgia) will be taken over and we will do nothing.

“14. He will begin to dismantle intelligence gathering, or neutralize CIA, and FBI & put his people in there.”

Not savvy, guy. He/They will be saying “The are OUR jets now” just like Hillary’s peeps did, and will take full advantage of all the ability to spy which was put nicely in place for him by the rebubs. (Actually, they already have all Freeper files, doncha think?)

What I should have said was he will reduce or dismantle intelligence gathering from America’s enemies (ex. Islamic terrorists) but of course he will WANT to spy on us, his enemies. Thanks.

maybe, but I think the MSM will keep him popular until they see he is starting to get too far.

The public will indeed se what’s in the nice package is very different from what they thought they bought!
