Barack Obama was elected to a second presidential term Tuesday, defeating Republican Mitt Romney by reassembling the political coalition that boosted him to victory four years ago, and by remaking himself from a hopeful uniter into a determined fighter for middle-class interests.

Four more years of America circling the toilet bowl with Captain TidyBowl in charge.

This is what paganism looks like. Hell will soon follow.

This was a Christian nation. Consider what has historically happened in formerly Christian nations and you will be able to predict the future almost as if you were an Old Testament prophet.

I believe that you are right. The ‘American Dream’ has changed.

The American Dream was probably best put before the nation at high school graduation speeches.

In the ‘50’s the speaker would challenge the graduates to start a business, employ the people in this town, and provide for yourself and this community.

In the ‘70’s the speech was about being the best you could be. Work hard: school, labor, whereever you go. The sky is the limit, it is about you succeeding. But provide for yourself.

Now the American Dream seems to be: ‘Win the lottery.’ Sit back the world revolves around you, we (the gov’t) will do all for you. It takes no effort just avail yourself of all the riches out ‘there’. Someone else will give it to you. We will provide for you.

50 more months and he will be history. Just think of it as a bad loan.

Soon they will be sitting in their own feces as their system goes bankrupt and abandons them. 1st and 2nd Amendments will be altered soon to increase the tyrants power base. The economy as we have known it will implode and paper money will be worthless in the near future.
