Obama Wins Ohio - It's Over

[My Favorite Headache]

Obama wins Ohio...it's not going to happen for McCain.

[tanknetter]

Is that the same as hinting that McCain THREW this election?

Possibly. More likely it's posturing in the face of an inevitable four to eight years of President Obama. And a clear sign that McCain intends to be much more of a Bob Michel-type "team player/loyal opposition" when he returns to the Senate

I think I will reintroduce myself to K.

[PA-RIVER]

Pathetic, isn't it?

Our goal for 2012 .... run with a guy born after 1950 who doesn't look and talk like a recovering drunk. We might actually win.

..he just finished as many of us thought he would months ago. Not a true conservative. The only thing that threw me was Sarah Palin. I thought she would change the story--she was a light but the people loved the darkness.

God help us.

Am I being too much of a downer?

What if God’s judgment is to make all America’s deals work out, and everyone has 2 cars in every garage and porterhouse on every grill?

He makes them so comfortable that they say to themselves, “....forget about those babies being sacrificed to Molech.”

That’s separating the sheep & goats. And then....

I’ve been examining the potential benefits of a mattress as an investment opportunity.

Me too. I think that a lot of 401K investors are going to change their positions in a drastic way. It's silly to invest when the communist government (like the one just elected) gets first cut.

[Gamecock]

*****I’m probably going to retire to the Religion Forum after tonight. Let’s say we start up the Calvin/Arminian wars again. At least if we are busy arguing scripture, we will also be busy studying it. I’m sick to death of politics.

God’s plan was set in motion before the foundation of the Earth. Sometimes its better to just watch from the sidelines than to struggle to change it.*****

All of that being said, perhaps you should run for Congress in ‘10?

Satan (the delusions of the religion of man) won this battle; take heart for yourself, your loved ones (including most here that I’ve gotten to know), and your knowledge of His Truth — we know with sureness He has always planned on winning the “Big One.”
Stay true, and remember that this life’s time is only a blink of an eye compared with the time he has in store for you. Nevertheless, you will want to proudly tell Your Father what you accomplished with this short time, how apparent it is that His wishes motivated you.
Let God continue to bless this fantastic and God-fearing community. Amen.

More than likely SPAM in every frying pan and 1 Euro style car (read: tiny) car in every driveway.

We’ve already started. You will see FALCON make a helluva lot of noise for the next 4 years.

Hunter/Palin FALCON 2012. No worries about not calling the spade a spade.

I’m cancelling Christmas...not one dime this year.

I know the feeling, at least I'll scale back, do my shopping at St. Vincent Du Pauls and other thrift stores. I might buy a cheapo DVD player unless I can fix the one I have. In fact, I'm an electronics nut and I like to fix things, I might rearrange my room and put my stereo, 1970's vintage, into it. I dumpster dive from time to time and found a perfectly good CD player made by GE. It is a high end unit from 1984. The only thing it needs is a belt to open and close the tray which I can replace or use a gumband.

Sorry, I'm rambling, but there are frugal ways to enjoy the holiday. I even cobbled a TV together in my room form an old Commodore 1702 monitor with a digital TV tuner box hooked into it. Instant TV.

Car needs work as well so my buddy and I will tackle it. With OBummer as Current Occupant, we will need to learn as many skills as we can. Maybe if and when I get on where my buddy works at, an auto parts store, it might be a good place to work, with the OBummer economy, people will need parts to keep their old heaps running like in Cuba.

"What if they gave a Rapture and nobody left?"

Never mind the Rapture, I want to know how the post mils and amils can look at this mess as the Kingdom being progressively ushered in.

Maybe we have reignited the eschatological wars rather than the Calvinist'Arminian wars.

“More than likely SPAM in every frying pan”

They had the “Spamarama” cook off on the cooking channel tonight. The corn dogs made with Spam coated in a mix of cake mix, corn meal,and jalapeno peppers and deep fried looked great.

[SierraWasp]

Lordy! I've got old friends and former constituents callin here at this hour of the night askin me which tird whirled cuntry they should move to now!!! I'm suggesting the Baltic States where they still value their recently won freedoms and free enterprise. And probably a flat tax!!!

I used to buy cigarettes from Latvia back before I quit smoking. They weren't too bad and were sure cheaper than even Indian cigarettes from the reservation over in Reno!!!

Thank God that's over with!!! The poor smokers are worse off than the blacks/slaves ever were. They not only can't even sit in the back of the bus... THEY CAN'T EVEN GIT ON THE DANGED BUS!!!

No sir. It is not. No more so than after the Watergate/RINO Ford/Carter years. The seed planted by Reagan and Goldwater and Buckley many decades ago bore fruit in CA; and then the entire nation in 1980. Just in the nick of time, I might add.

The many seeds and deep roots that Reagan sowed and cultivated will lead us back to a Constitutional Republic, and away from the stinking piles of bullshit we have seen over the last 20 years since the Gipper faded away.

We are in for a rough 4 years. But make no mistake, the democrats will make Bush and Co. look like responsible stewards of our dollars, and make the Clinton Administration’s foreign policy look like Patton was running the show.

We have our work cut out for us. America just elected a marxist quisling. And it will take nothing short of the total re-invigoration of conservatism - the unabashed conservatism and humor of Ronald Reagan, the brilliant natural law conservatism of Jefferson and Madison and Franklin; the deep wisdom of Edmund Burke and Adam Smith, and the ‘bloody your nose’ conservatism of Teddy Roosevelt and Winston Churchill - to stop Obama, Ayers and their revolutionary red brigades.

We can do it. We have no choice. But it is our sacred duty and honor, in service to He who gave this country to us, and to the memory of all the brave patriots that spilled their blood for our posterity.

It is our turn, Walt.

America becoming Obama’s “world citizen” socialist mecca? Not on our watch.

[pissant]

Well, Xzins, we did our damndest to get the GOP to snap out of the funk it was heading towards with the Rudy McRomney chosen ones. To no avail.

I’m dumping all investments and staying out of the Market until I see the results of 2010 if 0 wins.

Me too. Talking with my 401K folks today. Time to cash out. Money is safer under a mattress anyway. I call upon "True Americans" to protect their assets and income from thievery. Be VERY tactful and imaginative when doing tax returns. And make as much "under the table" money as you can......

[xzins]

The 2 mandates that I think Obama has is: (1) His tax cut for 95% who make under $250,000. (2) His universal health insurance plan. His followers also will think he has a mandate to pull out of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Oddly enough, those tax cut and universal health are contradictory unless he pulls out our troops AND raises taxes. So, he’ll go very quickly for that tax cut for the 95%. That way, the tax increases starting in 2010 when the Bush cuts start expiring will end up making taxes higher when all the math is done.

He’ll still need the money from the military, so he’ll bring them all home and transfer the money borrowed for the war to being money spent on health care.

The message to families of our military is very sad. Since we know that Obama has set a deadline of 16 months to be out of Iraq, that means ANY death there between now and that moment in time is a total waste. We should support at this point getting out troops out.

[P-Marlowe]

Oddly enough, those tax cut and universal health are contradictory unless he pulls out our troops AND raises taxes. So, he’ll go very quickly for that tax cut for the 95%.

HE is a democrat. He will not cut anyone's taxes. Bush's tax cuts are due to expire. That means a tax hike for everyone. Obama will institute universal health care. That means a significant payroll cut for all employees who are not currently under some kind of payroll plan where they get health insurance. Small businesses will be bankrupted by having to institute the health care for all their workers regardless of whether or not those workers even care about it.

Obama will cut the military, which means that defense contractors will lay off workers and military personnel will be sent into the private sector where unemployment will likely to reach 10% in the next two years.

There is simpy not enough money for Obama's grand plans, so taxes will rise not only on the rich but on everyone. Usage fees and excise taxes and luxury taxes will be doubled or tripled, which will force luxury item manufacturers (like boat builders) overseas.

There is simply no way Obama is going to cut anyone's taxes. We are now Europe. When is the last time a Socialist European Country lowered taxes?

Brace for a depression.

Money is safer under a mattress anyway.

With double digit inflation likely in the next 4 years, your money in the mattress will soon be worth less than the straw you took out to make room for the money.
