Why I Want Barack Obama To Fail As President
Red State ^ | 21 Jan 09 | Warner Todd Huston

Posted on 01/21/2009 6:50:46 AM PST by PurpleMan

Now we arrive at where I stand on Obama’s relative “success.” I did not vote for the man. I do not support his socialist ideas. I stand four-square against his votes for infanticide, his votes to gut the Constitutional right to self-protection, his vague ideas of nationalizing various industries, his intention to enlarge government to unheard of proportions and his softening on terror producing countries. And since these are the things his entire life’s career point to as probable goals to “succeed” upon during his presidency… well, I want him to fail. And I want him to do so spectacularly. If Barack Obama is but a Trojan Horse for communism to push its nose under and into the tent, I want him to fail in the attempt.

Simply put I want these ideas to fail miserably because success for them would mean the destruction of this country. So, wishing Obama to succeed would be hoping for the destruction of my country if success means the accomplishments of goals like I mention above.

obama is not running this country.

George soros is , and obama is the puppet , the likes of ACORN , move on are his foot soldiers.

Wonder how much Soros gave in millions to obama under the guise of pre paid credit cards which the GOP should ban for the next election.

me too I haven’t watched FOX for days now and I will not for another week.

I haven’t watched any news channels and cannot stand the sight of even a obama sticker as to me those people what have them are brain dead sheep who are in a cult.
They voted for this phony and they are the enemy of everything this country stands for.

“I am not so sure the Dems will fail”

I am certain they will fail, less certain that their power will be wrenched away from them. If they are not restrained we may see “Cathy Buckle” type letters from the Breadbasket of America.

Here’s a comforting thought,....imagine the Messiah departs this world. Thank God we have a plagerist cretin waiting in the wings to assume total control,.....and if he passes on to the grerat beyond,...we have an out of control leftist who’s had her facial skin pulled tighter than a tympanny to hide the fact that she is brain dead. Thank God almighty we have these fine individuals to protect America!!

And just think... If something happened to ALL THREE, Byrd is next in line! He probably wouldn't last long, because if Hillary gets selected for Secretary of State... She's NEXT!

Those 4 better watch their backs! She may have a plan.

I must confess that even the sight of a BHO bumpersticker causes my middle finger to get awfully stiff.

I agree.”O” understands power politics.This is a man who has been educated and mentored by marxists since childhood.Obama cut his teeth and earned his “street cred” in one of the most(politically)corrupt cities in the US.Pelosi and Reid shouldn’t be a problem for O as long as the msm keep their collective noses buried in their messiah’s buttox.If there is any conflict amongst the three it will most likely concern how quickly to move the country further to the left.

I haven’t watched any news, including Fox. It may be that I won’t watch any news at all except what I get online. Somehow it’s easier to see it in print. I don’t mind hearing the analysis by talk radio. Even then, that has been limited too. I don’t think I can really go back to Fox. Can someone tell me....are they completely bending over these days to strike a “tone”? My tv has been off except for the Food Channel and a few non-political shows here and there on other channels. I think the next 4 years will be just movies.

I just think of all the clueless people. Give them what they want. They aren’t even educated enough to know that they voted for socialism. For some, they aren’t even educated enough to know that socialism is even bad even if they say they voted for socialism. My whole neighborhood is Obamaphytes. UGH.

My FOCA signs will be here soon enough. :)

Heck, Marxism was his mother’s milk, even if that meant putting it in the formula! :)

YES!!!! THANK YOU!!!

I don’t even think of him as a MAN. A MAN defends his country. A MAN defends the defenseless. A MAN stands up for women and children.

He does none of these things.

Given the incredible, near disasterous problems obammer has “inherited” from the former administrations, it’s a wonder why he or anyone would want the job.

Well, the most disastrous problem he's inheriting is absolutely not "the previous administration"s fault. If you think GWB is to blame for the economy, then you have some serious homework to catch up on.

Obama is inheriting the consequences of a Democrat-controlled congress. We all will be inheriting the consequences of a Democrat congress and a Democrat White House for at least the next 4 years.

President Bush made some messes, but he didn't make this one.

I’m lucky that I live in one of the most republican counties in Florida called St Johns county but on my trips around the state I see a sticker and I just think dumb idiot you have no idea what you voted for.

You are lucky! I miss being in the conservative strongholds.
I am in the most liberal county of the state. I had a Duncan Hunter sticker for the longest time but then I replaced it the day after the election with all of my stickers for pro-life. Now that FOCA is on the horizon, I will make sure the website is there too. I am really not fond of bumper stickers per se, but my car is paid for and not that great looking anyway.

My bumper stickers are pretty tame as I don’t want the slashed tires or broken windows. It would have to be a really rabid liberal to do damage to my car. They would have to literally hate BABIES to want to mess with my car.

Exactly. That's why she has been trashed by the libs and RINOs alike - she is a threat.

Their dilemma is if they do nothing, America will prosper, and they will lose power. If they do anything, America will suffer and they will retain power. Their retaining power depends on suffering, not prosperity.

The problem (our only hope) that they have is that there is no honor among thieves. They are willing to spite their own nose, where the pubs weren't willing to make a stand.

Here is what most Conservatives don't understand, Libs want the system to fail, it is job security for them. If the economy goes completely into the toilet (we are circling the drain right now) the Libs will be in control for a generation. The problem will be blamed on the Conservatives and justifiably so.

"...from the former administrations

Re-read....the statement said "administrationS.

GWB is not being blamed...at least anymore than the preceeding other administrationS.

And...the republicans had controll of congress before the last two years...and didn't do much with it.
