Yeah, I know Jose Serrano introduced a House resolution to repeal the 22nd Amendment a few months ago. He did the same thing in 2003. It went nowhere then and itll go nowhere now. Help me figure this out: Conservatives are absolutely convinced that Obamanomics was, is, and can only be an unmitigated disaster for the country, so much so that the chief strategy among the base for a Republican revival at the moment is to sit back, watch liberalism implode, and then welcome back voters to the right with open arms.
If all of thats true and a backlash to Hopenchange is inevitable, how is Barry O planning to get a constitutional amendment passed before 2016? Hed need 2/3 of both the House and Senate and 3/4 of the states to ratify it. Even if every Democrat in Congress voted to lift presidential term limits (which they wouldnt, if only for reasons of simple self-interest), theyd still need to pick up a bunch more seats in both chambers to push it through.
How bad, exactly, does Rush see things getting for the GOP especially at the state level, where only 14 red states could block the amendment that hed imagine something like that might be possible? I dont follow him here at all. Click the image to watch.

“10 million” former illegal aliens, now Democrat voters?
More like 50 million, or more.
Remember, the “amnesty” supported by the likes of Obama and McCain include a provision that each illegal can bring over his principal family. Ie, one illegal alien gets to bring his wife, his children, his brothers and sisters, and his parents.

Allahpudit is a good writer. But his use of “something” is wearing thin. It was cute the first 300 times or something.

There are more conservatives and patriots than there are Liberal wackjobs. The “silent” majority can no longer be silent. Let the Tea Parties begin!!

If this scenario, foreshadowed by Joe Biden, should play out then it will require the Military to restore constitutional government just as it did in Honduras. The difference between Honduras and here is that the President is the CIC. The military will follow 0's orders, don't kid yourself thinking otherwise.

[I dont believe Obama is competent enough to do a quarter of what people try to give him credit for.]
That’s what we are hoping that he has a giant hubris implosion. However don’t confuse what Obama will accomplish with what he believes he can do.

To: R_Kangel
Yes, you're correct. I think he offered this as an observation into Hussein's mindset. An example, if you will, of Hussein's thinking to explain his stance in regards to Iran and Honduras. He discussed this in conjunction with that Nigerian woman's article about Hussein's father and his pro-Marxist African influenced upbringing.
He then took it to the next logical step in Hussein's mind. Of course, Rush likes to venture into the absurd to make a point.

Obama, Pelosi, and Reid don’t care that the 22nd Amendment says Obama can only serve two terms. Nearly everything they have done since Obama was elected has been unconstitutional (including probably Obama himself)
They’ll just pull out their “I won” card.

Hitler was a great example of that. The only reason he had any success at all was because people who opposed him couldn't believe he would try some of the things he did. They were going to vote him out next time around and it was illegal for him to do those things.
Never underestimate a nutjob with power especially the most powerful nutjob in the world.

Exactly. The MSM will cheer lead for Obama, screaming “Will of the People”, “Lets’ Make History”, because they KNOW that the vast majority is now so dumbed down they know nothing of the US Constitution or its process. All hail the Mob, baby.

the chief strategy among the base for a Republican revival at the moment is to sit back, watch liberalism implode, and then welcome back voters to the right with open arms. The Republicans may come back into a bit of power in DC, but when was the last time Republicans rolled back a major Democrat entitlement? - Never!
The Republicans are largely impotent except when they're not aiding and abetting the Democrats.

My greatest fear is for my kids and numerous grandkids. The 22nd amendment will be toast if his cult like followers team up with Acorn (Brown shirts) to keep him in office indefinitely. God Help the USA

Certainly 10 million former illegal alien votes would help, Acorn election and census fraud will help. Doesnt have to be Obama he can be succeeded by any left wing SOB.
Like Michelle?
