My view is this: Ebola cannot spiral out of control quite fast enough to really cause the overthrow of American society the way Obama would like. Therefore, he will intentionally handle the situation in an explicitly incorrect manner, causing panic, anger, and confusion. He’s pushing for a revolt, either from the military, from congress, or armed mobs. He will declare martial law in 2014. The Republicans elected in November will not be seated.
The disease itself will not necessarily have a devastating effect – but the disease will allow Obama to end America as a world power.
NOTE: Neither martial law or civil war have to result in a viable dictatorship and the declaration of Muslim supremacy in the United States – that does not have to be Obama’s winning strategy. He can lose. He can die. I don’t think he cares. All he needs to do is cause a complete breakdown. Civil War will be the breakdown. The winner of the war is inconsequential – America will never be capable of propping up the West again, and the Caliphate will become firmly established in the Middle East, Africa, and Europe (Spain).
I think this will happen very quickly.
True’dat, Bro.
I’m just effin sick-and-tired of politicians saying they support ‘The Republic’ when all they want is access to the FedTreasury (can you say “Gary Peters”?).
I’d love to come home and run against him. I could give him a real run (and, I suspect the majority of our common fraternity group would likely side with me over Gary...we were all “business friendly” types).
Problem is that I am not a resident nor carpet-bagger and, I can’t move into the ^urban region^ Gary currently represents to exact a contest.
Soon?

I expect Maddow & Co. will go first. A combination of the fact that more people can fit into Heinz Field than will watch MSNBC tonight in prime time, and Obama is so arrogant and stubborn I expect he will reject any and all calls to correct course.
Leftist elites who are candid with themselves know that their policies have negative consequences on the economy, but their object is power for its own sake. They think they know better and their unworkable ideas will work if enough people believe in them. Those who do not are marginalized if not eliminated, because their mere contrary thoughts are a threat.
They therefore have good reason to hope that a few generations of public school dumbing-down/indoctrination combined with media bias and propaganda will have acclimated the population to accept their benign tyranny — and to consider freedom to be something that only favors “the rich.” So the false security of dependency is more than seductive for a significant proportion of Americans.
The problem then, isn’t just the Left; it’s the body of the American people, whose fundamental values continue to erode. An increasing number of us have been corrupted to the point wherein we are not only unaware, but unable — and perhaps even unwilling — to see reality. Remember, much of what drives the Left is what they wish could be so and think should be so w/o consequences or limitations.
It is a juvenile mentality, but in the end, Nature brooks no disobedience to her Laws. If we construct a society with unworkable economic policy, social norms that select us for extinction and national security theory that is based upon appeasing those who hate us, our way of life — and We the People ourselves will not survive.
It remains to be seen how far along the American people have been successfully resigned to [or distracted from] our ultimate demise. Others are already within our borders waiting to replace us and our way of life.
I agree with you. The progressives are not, “losing their grip,” on the democrat party. They’re merely loosening it while they’re busy absorbing the republican part as well.
Instead of using the word “progressive,” I suggest that we call them what they really are: Left-wing extremists, liberal extremists, environmental extremists, abortion extremists, etc.
Right. When did Republicans ever cut anything? The best they ever go for is a cut in the rate of growth. And we see where that cowardly strategy has gotten us. Even Ragan bragged that his tax cuts would bring in more money for the federal monster.
What are the ratings for a test pattern?
is MSNBC above that?
I agree but how is that beyond his “Progressivism”?
I’m convinced that the GOPe DOES NOT WANT TO SHRINK GOV’T.
They just want to be the ones in control of it, even if only in control of a small piece as the minority party.
The internet's starting to skip. I read the same thing about the Clinton impeachment, Y2K, EMP attacks.
The leftwing sites attributed these sorts of predictions to 911, the anthrax attacks, Bush's drinking and Christian evangelism.
My prediction is ebola will be a much bigger story, hundreds will die in the US, but only hundreds. It will join the unimaginably long list of things Obama screwed up for future generations to study. Obama will slink off when his term is through and will spend the next forty years of his life getting paid hundreds of millions of dollars by leftwing thinktanks and corporations for doing nothing, while trying to rehabilitate his reputation and acting with the same lack of class as Jimmy Carter, attacking Republicans as evil. And his daughters will forever be threatening to run for something.
And throughout, the government leviathan will keep eating up more of everything.
The Nazis didn’t question Hitler’s lack of Aryan features either. Nationalism can exist in a multitude of manifestations.
Not by any adult with more than three functioning brain cells, it won't.
“I think the mask falls, and the “good times” will really start to roll.”

I would like to believe it but I heard a lot of that in October of 2012 and it didn’t come to pass.
I agree but how is that beyond his “Progressivism”?

Most Progressives I know are not deliberately malicious, but I believe Obama is.
Your run-of-the-mill average sheeperal is motivated by one thing -
self-righteousness.
They try to reinforce their sanctimonious “good personhood” through their advocacy.
This is why you’ll hardly ever get one to discuss the efficacy of any leftist policy, because to them, it has already achieved its intended goal when they advocated for it.
That is a great take. I really like Daniel Greenfield. I really dislike these hipsters in power.
