I am not as pessimistic as the Rabbi, but this is the road we're on, though imo not irretrieveably. The next half decade will tell

I do not like the term “American Empire”

The Republic just died, the Empire is just beginning.

If this election proves one thing, it is that the Old America is gone. And, sad for the world, it is not coming back.

To those that still do not believe, lots of luck. America is finished and is a communists controlled nation that will sail us into a dictatorship with King Obama as its empty headed figurehead.

The simplest reason why Romney lost was because it is impossible to compete against free stuff.......and where responsibility, morals, charactor, pride and honesty are no where to be found.

I do not like that we are an empire. But that is an apt description.

Especially, I’d say, if all you’re offering is slightly fewer freebies.

Romney also was an incredibly weak standard bearer that was ripe for attack ads.

We needed a bare-knuckle brawler, and Romney didn’t take off the gloves. Nice guys finish last.

“The most charitable way of explaining the election results of 2012 is that Americans voted for the status quo...”

Just get that outta your minds right now because it was nothing more than election and voter fraud. Same, if not more...than it was in 2008.

We are in the Bread and Circuses™ phase of the decline and fall.

>>They must enjoy gridlock, partisanship, incompetence, economic stagnation and avoidance of responsibility.

Most Obama voters would not have the slightest idea what you are talking about. They might understand “They”, “and” and “or”, but that is about it.

Romney lost because of massive, obvious vote fraud. I suspect the election results were decided long before the Republican Party trimmed down the vote to Romney.

Our voting is no more valid than any other bannana republic. I remember long lines to vote for President reported in many republican polling locations, with an energized base all excited to Chick Filet this President out of office. Then I remember those long lines somehow generating a poor republican showing. Now what am I to believe, what they say, or my own lying eyes?

I refuse to kick the football anymore Lucy. Time to take our heads out of the sand and prepare for a Socialist purge, because it is coming.

I would mention to the good Rabbi, that many people are voting again, and it is seen in the long lines at gun stores. Americans with morals, do get the picture. This Nation grew up fighting totalitarians and knows them when they see them.

When morality is not enforced by the government in society, it has to be enforced to protect your homes in private. America is preparing for that.

This is still the best thing written about the election & where we are as a nation. Demographics are destiny & we are on the wrong side of the numbers game. 40 million poor, mostly third world LEGAL immigrants since the 1965 Immigration Act have swallowed up traditional America. We have been replaced by a new nation.....

This is very impressive writing: I clicked on his blog and found everything was easy to read—flowed smoothly—and was interesting, although the titles wouldn't normally catch my attention!

We’ve been there since at least LBJ and probably even FDR. It’s only going to get worse.

Thanks SJackson.
The most charitable way of explaining the election results of 2012 is that Americans voted for the status quo – for the incumbent President and for a divided Congress. They must enjoy gridlock, partisanship, incompetence, economic stagnation and avoidance of responsibility... The final results indicate that Romney exceeded McCain’s total by less than one million votes, while Obama received almost four million votes fewer than he did in 2008 – the first time in history that a president won a second term with fewer votes than he scored in his first victory.

Just some Food for thought I read about concerning the

*Venus Transit*

Transit Pyramid Math
There are some unique number associations with Venus & the Earth. The years between Venus passages across the face of the Sun, constitute 243 years between a pair of passages. In other words, the Earth will have revolved 243 times around the Sun. It so happens that during this same time, Venus will has revolved on its own axis 365 times. This as it is commonly known is our approximate length of time in days that the Earth revolves around our Sun.

If you take the center mid-point year of each 4-year Transit you come up with the 243 coefficient & the number 11.

1761
1765 = mid point (11 years to 1776)
1769

1769 – 2004 = 234 Years Apart

2004
2008 = mid point (11 years to 2019)
2021
1765 – 2008 = 243 Years Apart

As an aside note, these Venus Transits may yet hold a key not only to the possible start of Daniel’s 9 Last week of 7, but to the establishment of the USA as a nation; as being far more than a particular Declaration of Independence in 1776.

There have also been some relevant studies on how 1776 in itself is a ‘count-up’ year. Here is one possibility in that Daniel’s 1260+1290 day counts or (7 Years approximately) can be factored out:

1776 -2012 = 236 Years
+ 7 Years
= 243 years total
= 2013

This also happens to be the number in years configured from the US Reverse Seal of the Illuminati Truncated All-Seeing Eye Pyramid. From the base at 1776 + 236 years = 2012. Then from 2013 + 7 years (6.6 in Hebrew 360 days) will complete the apex of the Pyramid in around 2019.

Perhaps the USA, often referred to as the New Atlantis was designed to exist for only 1 Venus 243 year intercession of time allotted. Perhaps.

I predict that it will get only worse.
When you have a Marxist controlled media and public education,
K-Grad school, you are fighting an uphill battle.
Add to that a nation of idiots where half voted to REELECT
a Communist, and most likely an illegal immigrant.
I now live just fine on my social security, but in the USSA I would be a peasant.

I do not see ever returning to the USSA, even though I am from Tennessee, as fine a red state as you will find.
