After the S &P disaster only American exceptionalism can save us from Obama

Most of what we are reading about the S &P decision is both truthful and interesting. None of it, to date, touches on the thing that the Obamites, particularly “The One”, his obnoxious wife and assorted sycophants really care about.

We can start with what they do not much care about: the country, its traditions, its place in the world, freedoms, and the immense good America has brought to the world. (Views on the messes we perpetuated via Wilson’s war, FDR’s war, and fiat money are for another time. Even given those, our contributions have more than compensated, wildly more).

We are in financial trouble largely because of the things we undertook to keep Europe, South America, and parts of Asia free.

They drained our will and our treasury while allowing protected nations to develop pernicious social welfare systems. Absent America’s tax dollars and blood, and exceptionalism none of them could have afforded to protect themselves and build socialist welfare states simultaneously.

Obviously they required some help after FDR’s war and Wilson’s war but we subsidized them far too long. Our efforts, even those in Southeast Asia, while arguably failures, stemmed the tide of global Communism and drained its resources. Along with Pyrrhus, we won the battles but lost the war.

“The One” and his ilk dismiss American exceptionalism and find robust Americanism to be unseemly or jingoistic. It is all about HIM and his quest to bring the US into a socialized world government….

After bankrupting the nation, enslaving our heirs, and heaping misery on the most vulnerable, the only saving grace is Obama’s defeat. Hardly worth a celebration, but it is a start thanks to American exceptionalism….

That is just a start. There are many more who need to be dredged out of their comfy little "positions of power".

Right now I would say the only thing that's going to save us is the immediate impeachment of this child. Don't forget; He still has 15 - 16 months left in office. That is a loooooong time for the child to still be watching the house.

Just curious; What will the Democrats next candidate for POTUS be, a trout? Hey why not, so far they're batting 1000. The past 20 years it's been a rapist, a psychotic who believes he's a Professor of Enviornmental science, a pampered back stabbing traitor, and now a child.
