Unfortunately, we are saddled with a communist sympathizer in the White House. I don't know whether or not he's an actual card carrying commie, but he's definitely an America-hating, anti-capitalist Marxist leftist who thinks communism is the way to go. Now I remember when America used to fight against communism. It wasn't that long ago. Many of us on FR are veterans of wars against communism and some of us believe that American citizens who are communists are the enemy within, ie, the domestic enemy we've sworn to defend against. American citizen? hmmmm... that may be a loophole for Obama.
At any rate, the oath is to defend our constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. I can imagine that this places an enormous strain on our Secret Service agents. It's obvious to anyone with a brain that Obama is an enemy of the constitution. So should the SS defend the constitution or defend the anti-constitution commie?
So now comes the problem. If you feel it's your duty to call Obama a traitor and use salty language in your proposed resolution, ie, suggest the commie be keelhauled, walked off the plank, run up the yardarm, tarred and feathered and run out of Dodge, etc, etc, etc, you may be facing a visit from your friendly Secret Service. And even though your visiting agent may agree politically, and may take his oath to the constitution seriously, he's still sworn to protect the officeholder and it's his duty to take all threats seriously. And that may include serving me with a subpoena to turn over your IP address. Now I'm duty bound to protect your privacy to the best of my ability, but I cannot defend against stupidity.
Best advice I can give is to keep it to yourself. Don't post anything that may embarrass you later, or end you up in the slammer.
Ever vigilant.
Keep your powder dry.
Bidet will need a Veep.
Who is better qualified than Hillary!™, hmmm?
Who are you Christopher Columbus.

It's on the front page. You appear out of nowhere and deliver redundant lectures. Your "concern" is noted and filed where it belongs.
Isn’t the Speaker the next in line as VP?
I used to live in Los Angeles. No joke, it would happen there, at least, just as instantly as you say.
Welcome to FR!
As well as insulting to innocent . . . critters.
It is if it's true...
I’m guessing rioting, followed by looting, followed by the first people that use deadly force to protect their families, followed by “civil,” war.
Works for me. The garden needs tillin'...
That reminds me of the joke I got early this week: Man calls his bank regarding the notice he got saying that a check bounced due to "Not Sufficient Funds". He asked the customer service rep if the NSF referred to him or to the bank.
“The Dow is in full retreat”
Like saomeone said here, “Obama lied and the economy died.”
I’ve heard that they figure they can handle 15 million a month to the camps.

Excellent advice Jim.
It “ain’t” just the SS we should be concerned about.
During the Clintoon years my wife and I had relatives and friends, who got hounded and targeted by the IRS probably for what they said or wrote about the Clintoons.
During the 2004 election year, my OJ Simpson Bronco’s rear bumper had the 2000 GW and Cheney sticker on one side of the bumper and the 2004 sticker on the other side.
What caused me problems was a bumper sticker based on a billboard some of had put up in the Medford area during the Klamath Falls showdown. The sticker was not very nice to enviros. Another sticker blaming the Enviros for the forest fires we were having at that time was next to the mini billboard sticker.
In 2004 in spite of being traffic ticket free for decades, I got stopped twice by female Chippies and once by a local female leo. Their so called reasons for stopping me weren’t even close to being driving violations. They didn’t issue tickets because the polite discussions after the stops exposed they had created/fabricated the reasons for the stops.
The first stop, my wife and I were coming back home after helping our Son and DIL move into their new home. I went past a parked CHP at the legal speed on the highway and made a turn at the next intersection to talk to my wife about dinner. My wife followed, and we decided on who would do what for dinner. On the way out the light was red. I stopped and then made my right turn back on the highway. The CHP vehicle was still parked back on the main road that we turned off. Very quickly the CHP came after me and cut my wife off to hit her lights and pull me over.
She proceeded to tell me that I hadn’t stopped for 3 seconds at the red light. In the meantime my wife had pulled up behind the Chp and asked what was wrong. When the Chp said I hadn’t stopped for 3 seconds before turning right on red. To which my wife said, “I guess we will be seeing you in court with some of our CHP friends and mentioned a couple local lawyer friends.” At that moment I was dismissed and warned.
After the third stop, second stop by a female Chippie parked on 101 in the Redwood area. My wife was in the car. The trooper said I had gone by at an un safe speed. My wife said, “Was that because I was driving too slow. The CHP asked ny wife for her driver’s license. My wife refused because she wasn’t driving. They shared a few more words and the CHP handed me back my license and registration. She left after lecturing me to be safer. Later on in Oregon, my wife looked at the bumpers stickers and said the anti enviral stickers were probably the cause. So we removed them and the harassment stopped.
However, DMV stopped sending me the license renewal notices in the mail on the Bronco after the election. That was finally resolved after Gray Davis left.
Now, we have no political/power help at the national level and state level, and what we say or do could come back to haunt and hurt us.
I’ve tried to discipline myself for years to only speak of
only removing treasonous folks from PUBLIC OFFICE or from PUBLIC LIFE.
“I’m beginning to understand how certain segments of Germany’s population felt back in the 1930’s.”
I was just telling my kids that last night. That Obama is laying all of the blame on the Republicans “...this Economy that was handed down to us...” “...Fix a broken Healthcare system that we inherited...”, “Get us out of a War that the previous administration got us into...”.
Of course now it is focusing on the past administration, and past actions. But in awhile it will be “these people that oppose us in providing healthcare”, etc. And the worser things become, the more he’ll need a scapegoat.
That’s just the mildest
of the probable scenarios.
