According to Real Clear Politics, everyone's least favorite Failed Messiah, Barack Hussein Obama, has a 46.6% approval rating. (http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/president_obama_job_approval-1044.html) It would not be a stretch to say that our Dear Leader's chances for reelection are slim. The economy is in shambles. Gas prices are through the roof. The housing market has ceased to exist. The stock market is more schizophrenic than the Middle East. The War on Terror has become a quagmire with no end in sight. Unemployment is at nightmare levels. Things are so bad there are unsubstantiated rumors that professional atheist Christopher Hitchens has started a prayer group.
Odds are Chairman Obama will be replaced in 2012, and assuming the RINO herd doesn't throw a socialist-lite wrench in the works, our Dear Leader will be replaced by a Conservative. (I have my favorites, you have your favorites. This column is not, and never will be about, shilling for candidates. For the rest of this article, this person will be known as "Generic Conservative".)
Obviously, that would be a good thing. Now, more than ever, the United States needs the common sense solutions that only Conservativism can supply. We don't simply need another Ronald Reagan. We need Ronald Reagan on steroids with Barry Bonds as his personal trainer.
Assuming Generic Conservative does end Chairman Obama's Reign of Incompetent Terror in 2012, all of the problems I've listed above will still be there, eating away at the Republic. On top of all of that ,there will be another problem. I fear this problem will be worse than the ones listed above.
The 2+2=5 far left will become violent and this could plunge the nation into chaos.
I know, I know. I'm not Glenn Beck. My tinfoil hat is too tight. Blah, blah, blah. Yadda, yadda, yadda. Got it. But understand this: We no longer live in a time that allows to shrug our shoulders and say, "Naaah. That couldn't happen here." We live in times that force us to say, "I hope to God that isn't true."

“[I] want to focus on one particular suggestion you had about using the wonderful digital tools that are newly available for the reinvigoration of democracy. Now, they have been around for a while, but they are spreading far and wide and more people are getting involved. We need to have an American spring — you know, the Arab spring. The non-violent part of it isn’t finished yet, but we need to have an American spring, a kind of an American non-violent change where people on the grassroots get involved again. Not the, you know, not in the Tea Party-style.” ---Former Vice President Al Snore, in an interview with his new puppet, Keith Olbermann.

Let that sink in for a moment. This is a former Vice President of the United States calling for the same kind of revolution that we saw in the Middle East that has brought Libya to a civil war, Egypt to a military dictatorship, and the beginnings of civil war in Syria, Bahrain, and Yemen.
Now, we have already seen beginning of this crap in Wisconsin. Check out what I found at the International Socialist Review, as the author describes the protests against Wisconsin governor Scott Walker and his plan to have state workers contibute to their own health care and retirement:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Sick outs by Madison teachers were initiated by the rank and file. By Tuesday evening, so many had called in to say that they would not be at work the next day, that the school district cancelled classes. The teachers stayed out for the rest of the week and the following Monday, with union leaders scrambling to catch up, and teachers from other districts around the state joining the action as the week progressed.
The occupation [empahsis added] of the Capitol building began on Tuesday night, with hundreds of protesters staying inside demanding to testify before the Joint Finance Committee, which was required to hold hearings on the bill. The occupation [empahsis added] was initiated by students, but soon had enthusiastic labor participation, with particular unions designating certain nights for their members to sleep over.
This huge and militant [emphasis added] response led all 14 Democrats in the Wisconsin Senate to leave the state on the third day of the protests, depriving Republicans of a quorum necessary to pass Walker’s bill. For nearly three weeks the legislature was gridlocked. In response to threats of layoffs, the South Central Federation of Labor passed a resolution saying that it would support a general strike. Others pointed out that the budget deficit would disappear if corporations and the wealthy paid their fair share of taxes.
The mood to escalate action was there [emphasis added], but union leaders were terrified of things going too far. From the beginning most said they would accept the economic concessions contained in Walker’s bill in exchange for the preservation of collective bargaining and other union rights, sacrificing their members’ paychecks to defend their own positions.
After the teachers returned to work, union officials were unwilling to call more job actions, and instead starting channeling resources into recall campaigns against eight GOP senators. This allowed Walker to wind down the occupation [emphasis added] by slowly making access to the Capitol more difficult. Rallies continued outside, but on March 9, in a legislative maneuver, the Senate detached the anti-union sections from the rest of Walker’s bill and voted to pass them without the Democrats present.
The result was a huge and spontaneous outburst of anger around the city. Several thousand of us retook [emphasis added] the State Capitol in the early evening, climbing through windows and pushing past cops [emphasis added], who eventually gave up trying to stop people from entering. The mood was electric, and the many teachers who had joined the occupation were waiting for word from their union to walk off the job again the next day. If that had happened, other workers might have joined them."

The author, Phil Gasper, wasn't just some hack at Mother Jones or The Huffingtonandpuffington Post. He's a communist activist and editor of The Communist Manifesto: A Road Map to History’s Most Important Document.
Now, if you add the above to the left's history of violence (Lee Harvey Oswald, the Weather Underground, Sirhan Sirhan, the Unabomber, the G8 riot in Pittsburgh, just to name a few examples) to the attitude I've illustrated above, Generic Conservative is going to have his or her hands full, especially if he or she must make an economic decision the far left doesn't like. Washington DC will turn into Athens at very best or Tripoli at very worst.
Dark days are ahead.
God help us all.
“46% approval is a national catastrophe, any way you slice it.”
Amen.
Indeed.
2012 will not only be the ugliest electecion in American history, it will be the most important.

I’m doomed.
Thank you. Greatly appreciated.
The Left is going to orchestrate violence. They have said it. They have planned it. They worked it in the middle east. They are hoping to launch it here. I think the black mobs are warm ups or rehersals.
They have tipped their hand of how they will do it this time. They will not riot and burn down their own neighborhoods as in the past. They will set out in mobs and attack the middle class which to black racists are whites. The spirit of the Nation of Islam and the communist party USA is in this mix.
They will conduct violence at Republican campaign and tea party events. They will conduct violence at voting places.
Obama and Holder are in on it.

“...like my very intelligent mother, a life-long Republican, who watches CNN all day, reads Newsweek & the Nation & thinks she is getting balanced news from multiple sources. She won’t watch Fox, as it’s been demonized by these sources. She thinks all Republicans are ‘horrible’...”
I’m confused - so is your mother a life-long Repub or Dem?
Too bad you can’t get her to at least try out FNC news like Megan Kelly and Bret Baier - I’d put FNC’s journalists (except Shep Smith) up against ANY other network’s.
I understand what you’re saying, though. Yesterday, I was talking to my 93 yr. old dad, also a life-long Repub and good conservative. Although he DOES watch some FNC and greatly dislikes BHO, when I said (rather vehemently) that BHO hates America, he seemed surprised and almost brushed that off, asking “well, what do you thinks he likes instead?” I said European socialism, that he’s trying to turn us into Europe. Dad was quiet and didn’t argue that point. Knowing him as I do, he’ll think about that and probably discuss it today with a close friend (whom I know agrees with me about BHO).
I could’ve said a lot more, but thought I’d keep it simple for that moment. Maybe for the first and only time in my life, I actually gave my wise and usually informed father a small (but significant) piece of knowledge! :-)))
Yes, but does it have to come to that ?
Glenn Beck was right. I don’t recognize my country anymore.

Have you pointed out to her that...

Yes, I have. She still is suffering from Obamagaz. I’ll keep trying. Maybe I’ll succeed so she doesn’t vote for him again in 2012. Unfortunately, the other family members probably will.
Carter was a fool who was in way over his head. IMHO, that's all he was.
I don't think that he had the malignant hatred of (I'll say it) "White", "Successful", "Priviledged" Americans that Obama has.
I also think that he, or at least Democrats, know that they've hit their peak - at least for the time being - and are on their way back down the totem pole. THAT'S what worries me....the damage that they'll do while thrashing around in their death throes.
“I’m the black sheep of my family. (There I go again!) I come rom a long line of Lefty New York Democrats. My parents were leftists. In fact, I was once punished as a kid for yelling “Up yours, commie!” to one of my parents’ leftist friends. I was 10. Luckily, the punishment wasn’ t too bad. My parents believed in that “non-spanking” crap.”
What an honest - and funny! - post. Look at what you’ve overcome to turn out so well yourself - a FReedom-loving, conservative patriot. As Sean would say, you’re a great American :-)
Lord, I hope not.
I've read through the comments on this thread. As usual, I agree and disagree...... :-) Frankly, I think that if the outcomes of the 2012 elections are "undesirable"...there will be riots. Of late, people seem to be always looking for any excuse.
However, I think that the riots will be contained, as in the past. Rioters loot their own neighborhoods, and burn down their own houses. That's the way that they've worked in the past and I see no reason why it would change.
HOWEVER ... lets just say that it changes. That's when the rioters learn the difference between people who are violent for fun (looting and burning) and people who are violent because they have no other choice (think, the Koreans armed with shotguns guarding their shops during the Rodney King riots). At some point, self-preservation kicks in and the latter will always beat the former.
I've lived in a good bunch of neighborhoods. With one (inner city) exception.... Looting within any of them would meet a short, violent end. IMHO, if the first one or two through the door get plugged, the rest rapidly will find other places to be.
But, I sincerely hope that it doesn't come to that. If it does, FReepers have much, much larger problems. Massive breakdowns within the nation's infrastructure and transportation systems, for one.
Lock and Load my brotha! Ammo is the only thing we need to stop a dictator.
