Having been around since the days of Franklin D. Roosevelt, I have seen twelve Presidents come and go prior to the $160 million coronation of Barack Hussein Obama.
I have got to tell you this guy scares the heck out of me.
I am used to guys like Harry Truman who, when the job was done, got on the train and went home without any fanfare. He was so broke Congress had to vote him a pension so he could afford to buy postage stamps. He turned away offers to sit on the boards of corporations because, as he put it, he wasn’t President anymore and he wasn’t going to sell the title for a few bucks. It’s called integrity.

Obama is a whole different creature. He’s half black and half white. He spent the early part of his life being raised by a Muslim stepfather in Indonesia. His actual father was from Kenya where he had another wife, was Muslim, and ended up dying in a drunken car crash because he had blown a promising career. Later Obama’s mother divorced and came home, handed the kid off to be raised by her parents, and, well, who knows?

[Obama]’s surrounded himself with loonies that want to take away our guns, that think coal-fired plants to generate electricity are evil (they provide over 50% of all the electricity!), wants Detroit to make cars that no one wants to buy, and to make nice with Iran while they kick sand in his face.

“To be charitable”...
I’m not in a charitable mood.
If you’re scared now, just wait until his civilian security
forces are walking your neighborhood.
Most folks believed that in 1977, as well.
Thank you for posting the link to Professor Olson’s page.
Rush has that view as well, but he is not always right.
I view the damages done to the party over the past 6 years as being much more serious then many here believe.
I'm not saying it can't be repaired, but I think that it will take quite a while and the party has more pain to endure first.
Hussein is already showing his Chicago punk, thug side by threatening those who won’t vote for his commie agenda. His way or no way. ~~sigh~~
I appreciate that information. Before I send any information on to others, I like to check it out for it’s authenticity. Many times I receive e-mail forwards that turn out to be bogus by simply checking Snopes, etc.
Well thought out post, Cold Heat.
Yet I recall every single question you raise here in very year I detailed in my previous post.
We’ll see what happens. I’m much more optimistic today than I was back in September as to the future of the GOP and especiall conservativism.
a couple of folks have said that the stats are “urban legend” &/or 2000 election results of Bush-Gore with new date and bush-gore names deleted. see post 39.
Yes they are. Thanks.
Oops. Thanks.
That is a bogus story about Prof. Olson, and those stats are not from 2008.

A nasty one. I'll add it to the list.
The List...
I'm impressed. Mind if I copy and use your list? I'll ping you and attribute it to you if I use it on FR.
I don't mind at all. If we had done this with Klinton, he never would have had a second term.
Thanks. I already had an email typed. I’ll send it now.
In less than 3 weeks, Obama has endangered millions of Americans.It’s hard to keep track of all his executive orders, demands and mandates.
His latest mandate? Oh, it’s to bring a few hundred thousand Hamas supporters from Gaza to the US as refugees. ON OUR DIME. Nice.
We keep hearing this. What does it mean? Why is the Democrat "brand" so superior to the Republican brand? What makes Democrats so appealing?
I see it the exact same way as you. There is no satisfying many of the types here on FR. If our mutual fear of Obama was not enough to unify us, I don't see much hope.
It doesn't matter how bold Republicans behave, it's either too little or too late for those who want to hate Republicans. There is a certain segment of Republicans who relish in believing they are too morally superior to find anything virtuous about a Republican.
