I have been amused greatly by opinions on FR that believe Obama will eventually do himself in due to his lack of experience, blunders, mismanagement, marxist tendancies and other assorted goofs and failures as chief executive. I particularly enjoy the comments on how this will inevitably usher in a new Reagan like figure and era.
I need only remind you of the Clinton years. During that time every goofy move of Bill and Hill was heralded as an extraordinary event while failures and scandal were routinely with held from the public. Mediocre economic results were fantastic achievements, the bombing of Kosovo was compassionate nation building, even his unprecedented sexual escapades and adultery in the oval office with an extremely young intern was trivialized down to "it's only sex". He defiled the office and was impeached...he should have been run out of town on a rail but instead he gets rave reviews on his administration, receives 6 figure speaking fees and is floated as a potenetial Sec Gen of the UN.
Thanks to the MSM.
Do you honestly think it will be better under Obama? The left has been out of power in the WH for 8 years and believe Obama to be the second coming of Christ. Every major failure, every idiotic misstep, every scandal will be swept under the rug while the MSM fawns and chants over each and every bowel movement.
Critics will be attacked as racists, negative press reports will be dealt with by expulsion and opponents will be relentlessly pursued and harassed.
It's not going to be better, it will be 10 times as worse. Conservatives need to focus on the real enemy. It's not Obama, Pelosi or the DNC, it's the MSM who put these people into power, push the propaganda and provide the air cover that allows them to destroy this country and everything we hold dear.
If FReepers want to see a return to conservative values and victories we need to focus on improving the terrain on which we battle our opponents.
Balance the media, balance the propaganda and the road will rise up to meet every conservative candidate running for office and every issue/initiative in which engage the opposition. Because until then every time we step up to the plate we have two strikes against us and every swing has to be a homerun.
He`s a two term president, of that i have no doubt.
You’re only saying this because BHO is black. I’m sure it has nothing to do with details like his anti-American socialism.
the press has had a love affair with him, the dems are drinking their koolaid, that covers nearly half of America. OF COURSE HE’S GONNA GET AWAY WITH IT.
not to mention the unseen hands want him there.
Obama’s minions will not allow him to fail, at least as far as the record is concerned. As the first black president, he MUST not fail, therefore, he WILL not fail. Anyone who tries to tag him with a failure will immediately call down the full blame for any wrongs in this country.
The trick will be stopping him from becoming a multi-term President.
Different times Bob. The economic collapse has just started and it’s going to be painful.
That assumes of cource, Conservatives are even allowed to the plate.
You hit the nail on the head. Money Talks....
Great point here Bob J! I agree totally.
Here is something else to consider:
Is Obama the Antichrist?
During his campaign in Europe he put his slogans on the Wailing Wall:

The term 666 refers to how much money Salomon got in taxes one year after he ‘went rouge’ on God. Obama raised close to 666 million dollars.
It has been reported that his first major acts as President will be to federally fund stem cell research (which is superfluous since adults stem cells will do) and to fund abortions worldwide.
Not only does this sound exactly like the first thing that the AntiChrist would do, Europe is already in danger of going to Sharia law because of low birth rates of Christians compared to Muslims.
While it is widely accepted that the Catholic Church will be the instrument of the devil in the end days, actually the antichrist will have a confrontation with the Catholic Church. This story broke tonight:

Nostradamus on the AntiChrist:
“When his time comes he will take advantage of the political situation
in a country to rise to power. It will not matter that he is not a
native of the country. He will take advantage of loopholes and
contrive positions. He may aggressively and audaciously seize a
position in a military organization…”
Vol 1 Pg 180
He has yet to submit a real birth certificate:
http://lamecherry.blogspot.com/2008/08/proof-barack-obama-birth-certificate-is.html
There are several articles on this one the web with the main stream media doing all they can to cover up for him BUT there wouldn’t be the back and forth and there wouldn’t be the lawsuits if he had of produced a valid birth certificate.
The antichrist is expected to be rather hard on Israel. This looks like it might be shaping up.
It also looks like he will use the ‘fairness doctrine’ to silence talk radio, the Internet and Fox news.
He has talked about a ‘civilian force as well funded as the military’ that will NOT be like Nazi brown shirts. They will be “green shirts”.
The Third Secret of Fatima in addition to predicting JohnPaul II’s attempted assassination predicted that the FOLLOWING POPE would be the last. Pope Benedict XVI is now 80.
Well I am not saying he is the antichrist I am just raising the question.
And hopefully he’ll be out of office in 2012.
Wait a minute that is the end of the Mayan Calendar!
I am afraid your right. And I am afraid for our country.
“He`s a two term president, of that i have no doubt.”
Doe Michele Obama have aspirations to high office?
He will be unless we go into a tailspin for 4 whole years, or have a massive security failure. I for one, would like to avoid each of those disasters. I am prepared for eight years. I felt the whole election season that he must be fought now to prevent him from getting in office, because he will have the media to run cover for him for eight years as they did for Clinton.
In Camelot...The winters are forbidden till December. It's exit marks the second on the dot. By order summer lingers till September in Camelot.
It never rains till after sundown. By 8 am the morning fog has flown. It short there's simply not a more congenial spot for happlily-ever-aftering than here in Camelot!
I am beginning to wonder that myself.
Economic collapse is what created the right conditions for Hitler to rise to power.
They’ll blame it all on the GOP and evil rich conservatives and then say the only solution is their socialist changes.
When you control the organs of information dissemination you control everything. The past, present, future and opinions of citizens.
You and others rely on an economic collapse to destroy Obama. I fear it and believe it will be his excuse to consolidate power and change this country forever.
That type of posting that gives FR a bad name.
Ok, I agree but how do you propose we do that?
