America faces most dangerous two years in 150 years
The Washington Times ^ | November 5,2014 | Charles Hurt

Posted on 11/05/2014 6:52:23 AM PST by Biggirl

If President Obama suffered a “shellacking” in the 2010 elections, then what he endured Tuesday night was nothing short of a vicious gangland beatdown the likes of which have rarely been seen before in the history of electoral politics.

”This is my last election”...

That statement has a very sinister connotation to it, i.e. he’s not going anywhere in 2016 if all goes as he has planned. He needs to be REMOVED from office within the next two years, otherwise life in the US will be as if our worst nightmares have come true. Seriously.

A scorched-earth policy is really going to help his political party’s presidential candidate in 2016.

He does not care about that. Only cares that future Leftists will erect a statue of him next to that one of Saul Alinsky.

Good post

call Congress 202-224-3121 to stop Obama’s executive order for Amnesty for illegals and to jail Obama for all his lawlessness.

I don’t know.... Megyn has morphed into this personality that is “over-the-top” most of the time. I used to think she was pretty good, but now she just gets on my nerves.

Ditto. She’s too full of herself lately. It’s all gone to her head.

Republicans will govern as Republicans, that is, Gopes. Romney or Bush will usher in the official end of the Republic in 2016.

Loved it.

She’s better on her show where she’s an interviewer/anchor. When she’s co-hosting or part of a panel, she appears out of place or trying too hard.

The 1934/36 elections almost destroyed the Republicans as a viable party. The 1964 and 1974 were no picnics either for the Republicans. The Democrats may have gotten a beatdown yesterday, but they usually don’t experience whippings like the Republicans.

I don’t disagree with much of your post, and I appreciate your cautious optimism, but the reality is that major changes (via legislative bills passed by Congress) to the decades-long buildup to the federal bureaucracy would most likely get a veto from the Executive. The number of votes to override a veto is 60 votes in the Senate, and there aren’t enough Senators to override a veto.

While it is true that Congress can do some things that some of us would view in a positive light, I don’t see how a major dismantling of the alphabet agencies (EPA, DOE, etc) can take place as long as the Executive uses his veto pen.

I tend to believe that the long-term answer to bringing the country back closer to the federalist principles underlying the original Constitutional Republic is through a “limited agenda” Convention of States approach.

Now ,call Congress 202-224-3121 to stop Obama’s executive order for Amnesty for illegals and to jail Obama for all his lawlessness

with just a simple majority in the House Republicans stopped Amnesty since 1994 .Clinton , Bush , Obama wanted Amnesty badly . democrats didn’t stop amnesty as democrats know they would get 40 million new democrat voters. also stopped Hillary care, gun control , full socialism.

now with a super majority or the highest majority in the House ever for R’s Amnesty will not pass unless Obama unconstitutionally issues an executive order in the lame duck session in the next 2 months

stop blaming Republicans for everything Obama does.

.........with all due respect, I don’t think so, to wit:

1. All that is needed, assuming Louisiana and Alaska go Red, is 13 votes to convict the sob! Impeachment votes in the house are already there.

2. The Democratic, Marxist, Socialist Party got smacked and fed some humble pie last night. Obama has hurt them bad and will continue to hurt them. The sooner they are rid of the sob the sooner their party can begin to think about 2016 and beyond. So, 13 votes are not completely out of the question. Very unlikely yes! Out of the question, NO.

One HUGE screw up by Obama and 13 votes could materialize overnight!

"Yesterday was not so much a wholesale embrace of the GOP as it was a complete and total repudiation of Barack Obama and the gang of criminals he brought to Washington in 2008.

Wishful thinking. If the people were going to repudiate Barack Obama and his gang of criminals, they would have done so in 2012.

This election reflects that 6 years have passed and:

This election was about results, and Obama's grace period has finally passed.

If republicans don't want to get kicked out next election, they need to address these in a positive manner.

This is just the laying of a foundation. The work has begun.
