A Shining City On The Hill No Longer?

This echos my predictions almost word for word.

I am glad I don’t have kids who will suffer under the new 4th reich.

Only the new fuhrer could bring fascism and communism together.

[unspun]

More like “shining path.”

President Reagan, I am so sorry you are having to look down upon this once great nation and see what it has become. I know that the Good Book says no one in Heaven will cry but it must be hard not to.

[Cvengr]

IMHO, we are approaching a time in which God Himself will begin taking measures to make those who have known Him, but have fallen away recognize He is still in control of all things.

[Dick Bachert]

This just in. Sources tell us that advance copies of plans for the coronation have leaked and we have a glimpse of the delights to come on January 20th.

William Ayers and Jeremiah Wright lead attendees in “God Damn America” with music by the Marine Band (who will be strapped to their chairs to prevent them from abandoning their instruments).
(For those unfamiliar with them, here are the words)

Now we Marxists gather, here in old D.C.,
And we curse the memory of our ancestry,
And the wicked men who brought us to this place,
Let us cleanse this nation of the damned white race.

God Damn America,
land built by slave,
Stand astride her, deride her,
‘Bout the blight with Obama we’ll rave.
From the blue states, to the cities,
Commie leaders we will host
God Damn America, this curse our boast
God Damn America, this place is toast.

The lights are already out and the candles have burned down.
The neighborhood punks are already pumpin their chests.

This thing? Is about not just the US but the G7/8. Its also about Israel and Europe. And its all coming undone as he experiments with change you can believe in.

Flippin right. Change you will experience. But it wont take even 60 days. Its done already. The adversaries and detractors placed their bets and their pony came in.

Right now the world is facing economic turmoil and the thugs are ready to go. Its a poor time to be experimenting.

many McCain insiders laying the blame for his defeat squarely at Palin's door, sending her back to Alaska with a bitter taste for national politics in her mouth.

This comment unfortunately has an undertone of those bad Monica Lewinsky jokes from the 90's. I'll say this, though - if Sarah Palin IS going to compete in the national arena, she'll need to be prepared for worse than this. The Left will do its very worst to destroy her, as she threatens every ugly thing they hold dear.

Talk radio, the last bastion of political free speech in this country, will be silence by Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer as the Fairness Doctrine is brought out of the closet, dusted off and put back into effect. The alternative media will attempt to carry on, but , alas, the Internet will probably also be given its marching orders to be fair and balanced.

I say we draw the line in the sand right here. We fight this tooth and nail, march on Washington if we have to. We cannot let them muzzle us.

Way too pessimistic. That BO and the usual scum bag lefty's will try to do what this author envisions I have no doubt. But they are not supermen. And we are not without weapons. When Ronald Reagan predicted that communism would ultimately fail, it was because he recognized the inherent flaw in it. Some with these characters. They will fail because everything about the left is a lie and deeply contrary to human nature.
Buck up people. The election of 2008 will be seen as the high water mark of socialism in America that began with FDR in 1932. But we will have to be as tough and smart as our ancestors who built this country. This guy might be smart and sneaky but at his core he is an impostor and a coward. He can and will be defeated. Bring it on ! !

Obama's World (poetry from the master)

UNDERGROUND

Under water grottos, caverns

Filled with apes

That eat figs.

Stepping on the figs

That the apes

Eat, they crunch.

The apes howl, bare

Their fangs, dance,

Tumble in the

Rushing water,

Musty, wet pelts

Glistening in the blue.

Republicans abandoned their conservative principles and nominated a RINO for the top of the ticket.

No, I don't buy this. Why would conservatives not vote for McCain because he wasn't conservative enough - and instead vote for a liberal?
McCain came out being very quiet and calm. He showed no enthusiasm, while Obama came out the gate fired up. It wasn't until the last couple weeks that McCain showed any enthusiasm. People fell for "The One's" rhetoric. He promised all things to all people, and people only heard what they wanted to. Maybe in the next election the GOP candidate should hire an acting coach.

The problem with conservatives is that we are just too nice. We play by the rules while the other side cheats.

Time to look at the left's playbook, Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals", and learn how to hit back/counter their tactics.

[KriegerGeist]

Obama will sit down with those groups who endorsed him in this election. Members of Hezbollah, Hamas and other terrorist organizations will now see their wildest dreams fulfilled, as the United States waves the white flag of surrender. We will abandon Israel, and watch as they either preemptively strike Iran to take out their nuclear facilities to prevent their own destruction, or as Iran wipes them off the face of the earth while Obama and the Democrats in congress sit by and do nothing."

Uh Nope! Obama's America will not come to Israel's aid, but "wipes them off the face of the earth"? Uh Nope! According to Ezekiel 38 & 39 God is going to defeat Israel's enemies. Not Israel, not the U.S.A., but God Himself.

[R. Scott]

The Left will do its very worst to destroy her, as she threatens every ugly thing they hold dear.

Yep - and while this country was ready for a black President, they (and our MSM) weren’t ready for a woman.

[Girlene]

Wow. That’s inspiring! /s

LOLOLOL. Moron!

[GCC Catholic]

After four years of 0, we’ll be lucky if it doesn’t end up the dingy, crime-ridden, police-run slum-on-the-hill.

[ikka]

We let the press choose McCain for us. Would Thompson or Hunter have been any worse? No, and they would have been much more principled in their stands, which would have helped Republican candidates in all the other contests.

[Free_at_last_-2001]

The problem with conservatives is that we are just too nice. - Agreed!

[ronnie raygun]

Let us not forget the population demographics will be altered to thier liking. Africa and other third world nations will flood the shores of America tipping the balance to a majority in thier favor and a minority in ours. It is truley the end of this nation as we knew her!

[KriegerGeist]

The U.S. as a nation is trending more Socialist despite what Rush says. I can speak from observation of here in Virginia, the voters tossed out Conservative George Allen for a POS pervert named Jim Webb. They picked liberal Mark Warner over conservative Jim Gilmore in a landslide. Add to that, tossed out a few good, true Conservative Representatives for liberals...an especially good and true one Virgil Goode (R-VA 5th).

It seems that no matter how good, true and Conservative a candidate is, voters are picking the liberal Democrat over them now...

It's the liberal trending of the new electorate. "New Electorate" is a term I use to apply to transplants from the north migrating into Virginia bringing their liberal ways and voting habits with them. It also applies to college age and college graduates that have been indoctrinated and brain-washed into liberalism and socialism. They went all nuts for Obama.

Bottom line: The "Conservative Movement" cannot be rebuilt just by putting forth good or even great candidates. The "New Electorate" must be transformed into conservatives. That, will be difficult, if not nearly impossible. Why? 1. Blacks are not going to become conservatives. 2. Hispanics are not going to become Conservatives. 3. With high divorce rates or just plain non-married women - single women with children vote for government to be their husband and father to their children. 4. The seemingly increasing homosexual population are never going to become Conservatives. 5. The "New Christians" (who are not really true Christians) are trending to vote liberal. I think I read 25% (or higher?) of 'so-called' Christians voted Democrat/Obama.

So, what is there left to work with? Many, but not over half the population I think.
