He’s not the first Marxist President. He’s the second fascist President.

Yeah, but the whole world, even the French, loves us again! Isn’t that special. I’m suffocating from all the “warm fuzzies” I’m getting. Unicorns, rainbows, butterflies and teddy bears are everywhere!
It is a myth that HUSSEIN Obama “flipped” anyone. What he did do was send out his massive FRAUD machine to put him over the top in close states. Anyone who went 3rd party only helped Obama’s (America’s first ILLEGITIMATE president) theft of the election.
Vote for the MOST CONSERVATIVE in the primary and accept the nominee in the general. Anything else, such as 3rd party voters, only end up with the same results as McLame and is nothing more than a pathway to CONSESSION SPEECHES.
What can I say? He’s correct. The GOP leadership isn’t interested in advancing conservatism, they are only interested in holding on to their personal power. And if it looks like it’s the “other side’s turn” to govern, that means sucking up and making nice with them, so as to not be sent to Coventry. It’s the other side, the socialists, which have the “true believers” in leadership.
The flipside of that should be kudos to the MSM for America’s first Marxist president.
No argument here. The GOP nominated the anti GOPer. What the hell did they think would happen.
I wonder how many here actually believed the pathetic McCain had a chance.
Palin’s skirt wasn’t big enough for McCain to hide behind. She should be commended for all the weight she shouldered in that campaign.
It's all about the Ice Cream ......
The most eye-opening civics lesson I ever had was while teaching third grade in 2000. The presidential election was heating up and some of the children showed an interest. I decided we would have an election for a class president. We would choose our nominees. They would make a campaign speech and the class would vote.
To simplify the process, candidates were nominated by other class members. We discussed what kinds of characteristics these students should have. We got many nominations and from those, Jamie and Olivia were picked to run for the top spot.
The class had done a great job in their selections. Both candidates were good kids. I thought Jamie might have an advantage because he got lots of parental support. I had never seen Olivia's mother. The day arrived when they were to make their speeches Jamie went first. He had specific ideas about how to make our class a better place. He ended by promising to do his very best. Everyone applauded.
He sat down and Olivia came to the podium. Her speech was concise. She said, If you will vote for me, I will give you ice cream. She sat down. The class went wild. Yes! Yes! We want ice cream.
She surely would say more. She did not have to. A discussion followed. How did she plan to pay for the ice cream? She wasn't sure. Would her parents buy it or would the class pay for it? She didn't know. The class really didn't care. All they were thinking about was ice cream. Jamie was forgotten. Olivia won by a land slide.
Every time Barack Obama opens his mouth he offers ice cream, and fifty percent of America reacts like nine-year-olds. They want ice cream. The other fifty percent know they're going to have to feed the cow.
God help us all.
Can’t argue with this - Bush was a do-nothing president in his lame duck term, the GOP has yet to figure out what happened in ‘06 or why voters turned to the Dems. In addition, the GOP has failed to make any move to suggest that they are swinging back to their conservative roots and continue to indicate that they are in disarray.
McCain, as the GOP nominee, ran a mediocre campaign that never energized the base until he selected Palin as his VP nominee. Once he selected his “pit bull with lipstick”, he put a muzzle on her and never really turned her loose.
So, yes, the GOP IS responsible for Obama being elected. They never took the fight to Obama and remained on the ropes the whole time. Frankly, I’m fed up with the country club Republicans. We need some new blood, new ideas and rock solid Reagan conservatives to shake the party up, bring in new blood, and, particularly, convince minorities that the conservative party is their best friend, NOT the “do-as-I-say-not-as-I-do” Dems. The GOP needs to shed its country club image and attract younger conservatives with ideas and actions.
There is plenty of “blame” to go around, but I think the overriding reason for Obama’s win is that the MSM was promoting Obama, instead of telling the truth about him, they actively prevented the truth from getting out. They also wrote mostly negative articles about McCain and Republicans, misrepresenting their posisions and not allowing their message to get out.
Like it or not, most people still get their news from the MSM. I think someone famous said something like “he who controls the media, controls the people.”. We have “free press”, but it is controlled by leftist/socialist/communist elements.
The first thing the Republicans need to figure out, is how to get around the MSM — they need to learn to use the internet, as a direct media to the people.
Then as the next thing they need to define a clear, concise agenda. But if they don’t look at how to defeat or get around the MSM, it won’t make any difference.
Unless we rid ourselves of the Federal Reserve system, the IRS, and treat politicians like policemen(any funds they accumulate should be seen as graft and corruption) we are screwed.
Seriously, their has to be a way to stop money from corrupting politics and politicians.
The worsening of all political correctness and the worsening of the “dumbing down” of people also helped both Obama and D’s at every political level win. Both political correctness of people of all ages and the “dumbing down” of people of all ages helped in creating both ignorant voters and stupid voters, and these voters ended up voting in the majority along with many conservative voters deciding to stay home again in ‘08, just like many conservative voters decided to just stay home during the ‘06 elections. Conservatives had already lost the ‘08 election for POTUS prior to November 4 when the only serious, remaining choices for ‘08 POTUS are between Marxist Obama and RINO McCain! Also, the ongoing worsening of both political correctness all over the world and the “dumbing down” of people all over the world will only benefit the political left even more all over the world.
I blame the America-haters, stupid “idealistic” kids, race-voting blacks, self-loathing white liberals and freeloaders who voted for the turd.
"The Republicans have lost their nerve. Worse, they have lost their revulsion to socialism and Marxism and have devolved into politically correct, overfed capons."
I don't believe they have lost their revulsion to socialism -- many of them never had it and don't know what it means to them.
And to top that off: IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE!
So they say while it's happening.
Americans are a strange lot today.
They won't fight to keep patriotism in schools, colleges and universities.
They won't fight when their government rapes them with this so-called "bailout".
They should have taken to the streets to protest a Marxist during the primaries and before -- not foolishly wait until he's the left's pick.
The left is winning and there is no one at the helm who believes the left is a REAL threat. "It just can't happen here."
We are finished as a free people if this continues.
I’ve come to conclude that, up at the top, where the money and power are, no one gives a damn who sleeps in the White House. It is all a big soap opera to keep the masses distracted.

Blame the GOP Drive by media for America’s First Marxist President
