The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president.
The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince.
The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.
Excellent
That comment thread is worth a read, very interesting. The quote seems to have been based on a comment of Cicero's from the first century B.C.
A commentor at your link cites a blogpost from 2009, although that is no longer available. Anyway, doesn't matter so much who said it, it sure rings true!
Mimochodem, Vy máte české předky? Matku nebo otce? Rozumíte, že?
The danger to America is that we have a usurper in the Red House ( oops! White House) and every Senator, all Representative, all state attorney generals, all governors, all state secretaries of state, all law enforcement, every judge, all of the Supreme Court, all state assemblies, nearly all of the conservative media, Bush, Chenney, and ( the saddest of all) our highest military officers did NOTHING!
And...When Article 2, Section 1, defenders stand up and say, “Obama has multiple social security numbers, fails e-verify, and has posted **crudely** made FORGERIES, they are mocked.
Hell, I’m sorry, I meant address the Czech stuff to post 12.
Well!...Conservatives could start with education:
** Work to see that every child in this nation has access to a private and conservative K-12 education that upholds Judeo Christian belief and values and our founding principles.
** Work to shut down every government K-12 school in this nation. All of them are godless. All of them are socialist-funded and tuition-free. Merely by attending children become comfortable with socialism and “free” stuff.
** Immediately work to privatize all state universities and colleges.
** Encourage conservatives to open conservative colleges and universities.
** Stop all endowments and gifts to liberal/Marxist universities.
** Charles Murray was right. We need qualifying exams starting in first grade though college level. Large portions of information learned on college campuses and in K-12 schools can be put on the Internet for **free**! Qualifying exams would prove to an employer that the material was mastered. Work to make a B.S. or B. A. degree completely unnecessary for employment. The less time on campus the better!
I was a Czech translator in the US Army. I was engaged to a Czech girl for a while, too. Although there was no “happy end” for us, it sure was an education! I can’t imagine the shock of Czechs, Poles, Hungarians, et al, at the foolishness of our electorate.

Welcome to FR!! Been golfing much lately, kinda like barkie?
It is time to get in the face of the Left’s gutter culture that elected the fool.
There are a number of popular fads that have produced the “flash mob” herd mentality that blindly followed the media’s production of the Obama Presidential reality show. Another is permtting the Black ghetto fad culture to wag it’s grotesque thang in our faces and lead us around by rings through our noses. The corporate left and political left teamed up to produce this current gutter thing. We meed to smash it.
Seen in numerous emails for the last two years. This is nothing new.
Has been on my About Page for that long too.
The corporate left and political left teamed up to produce this current gutter thing. We need to smash it.””
We share common ground.
There was a REASON the right to vote was left out of the Constitution.
No putting those horses back in the barn, its all a matter of time.
