It's starting to feel like 1995 all over again.
For 64 years, the Democrats possessed a monopoly of power in the House of Representatives (the two interruptions in 1946 and 1952 when the GOP eked out a tiny majority then quickly lost it don't count).
The Dems' arrogance and conviction they had a moral "divine right" to their monopoly doubled in size when the Pubs tore themselves apart in an internal power struggle, with newcomer Newt Gingrich replacing long-serving Bob "You've got to go along to get along" Michael as Minority Leader.
The Dems laughed at Newt's "Contract With America" as an amateurish and typically "stupid Republican" campaign ploy for the 1994 mid-term elections. They couldn't care less over the tidal wave of public anger building up over their arrogance - and that of the new Dem president, who was trying to ram a government seizure of health care down the throats of Americans.
They were gobsmacked when they lost 50 seats and their majority to the Pubs, and were in a state of catatonic shock when Newt became Speaker Gingrich on January 4, 1995.
The Republicans were on a roll, Big Government was to be rolled back to its Constitutional limits, our Republic was to be rescued from the miasma of liberal cultural destruction, the Democrat Party was to be dismantled like the Soviet Union.
It was all over 105 days later. On April 19, 1995, the Oklahoma City Federal Building was blown up by a man portrayed as a right-wing anti-government terrorist.
Bill Clinton, the Democrats in Congress, and the entire gang of their enablers in the media were able to smear the Gingrich Republicans and anyone advocating less government control over their lives with the brush of "right-wing terrorist" Timothy McVeigh.

Of course the Nazis will pull something like this. They did it with the Reichstag fire in 1933.
All the laws are in place to suspend what’s left of our Constitutional rights. All that they need is some staged reason to justify mass arrests of the opposition and the scape goat groups.
I am with you 100%. My first thought on Scott was the exact same thing.
The bottom feeders better think twice before coming into OK and then think again. Don’t put anything past this group either.
Thanks for your service and what you do to keep the rest of us safe.
Actually, I'd rather it would work like the 90's instead of what would happen if they tried that crap today. This nation would be permanently damaged by such an attempt and such an attempt would undoubtedly lead to bloodshed between Americans.
Obama's presidency would end in shame, and history would view the period as the darkest day in the nation's history. This is hellfire Obama is playing with.
“Do you know who Dr. Jack Wheeler is?”
Yes. The same nutjob that says this.....

Something is flowing beneath the surface. Headlines now proclaim “Militia Movements on the Rise,” “Gun Sales Up,” “Racism Behind Anti-healthcare Protests,” ad infinitum.
obama actually seemed disappointed that his townhall meeting DIDN’T get rowdy. It would have been great propaganda for him if they had. HIS side respects no one. The people of New Hampshire were respectful to the president and I don’t think he really expected that.
Better to be safe than sorry. False Flag ops are NOT unheard of with the dems. They will do anything to hold on to their power.
They know Iran is unraveling and Ahmadinutjob is losing his grip. They know the mullacracy is teetering on the edge of an abyss.
They also squandered it by getting in bed with the lobbyist, to the extent that they did. Lobbyist only want one thing - money. And, the Republicans were in a position to give it to them. If we had more principled GOPers at the time, like Jeff Flake and Dr. Coburn, then they may never have lost their way. Instead, we had people that were more interested in growing their fiefdoms, and spending the people's money in the process.
Did Bush ever go to Massachusetts?
If they were to do that, I think it more likely in the spring of 2010, before the elections.
“Um, I didn’t read the entire article but, for something written in 2006, this statement seems to hit the nail on the head: “

“I’m sorry to be so harsh, but it’s really not helpful to let frustration over Bush’s refusal to shut down the illegal invasion make one go wacko.
I have talked to a lot - a lot - of very plugged-in people here in Washington, and no one - no one - has a coherent, knowledgeable explanation of Bush’s behavior regarding illegals. There are a lot of theories - and that’s all they are.
But to jump from this mystery to loony-tunes hallucinations about the President of the United States secretly plotting to eliminate his country, especially when that president is a decent man of character and the antithesis of a Bill Clinton - well, it recalls that scene in old movies where someone loses it and his friend grabs his lapels and says, “Get a grip on yourself, man!”
Won't be done that way either. Oklahoma here is figurative, it is used to stand for whatever evil deed can be done that will accomplish the goal. And they won't successfully demonize the right with blame again without taking some rapid "corrective" measures.
You don’t have a clue....he was part of the Reagan Administration, he was part of the Reagan Doctrine ‘we win, they lose.’ He was one of those brilliant thinkers who helped bring down the Soviet Union. Jack Wheeler was who Reagan picked to help him become the governor of California...he was head of the young republicans in California. If you’d actually study his articles you’d see the brilliance in Jack Wheeler’s writing....
Thank you...people are having a hard time grasping what Wheeler is saying here...
OK, perhaps I do not. I have read several articles from Dr. Wheeler since you posted this thread. Explain to me what Dr. Wheeler is suggesting.....apparently I'm too dumb to understand.
oh, ok
Read the thread...there are some on this thread grasping what he has said or is saying. Read his article again...most of it is plain spoken...what probably bothers me the most is he is well connected within the inside of the CIA, military intelligence, congress so this is coming from within...there is a lot he can NOT say...he has to be tight lipped yet give us a heads up...we ask him if we could pass this on...since to read his articles you have to subscribe to his site...so he opened it up for us to post and spread...
Thanks PKM....
I agree with you 100 percent as well.
Thanks to you as well for all you do!
FRiend. I understand exactly what he is saying, although you are loath to say it yourself. He is saying Obama and the Government will create another Oklahoma City massacre to deflect from the current mess.....just like Clinton did with the last bombing in OKC, as the conspiracy theory goes.
Please.....we have better things to do than worry about where the "government" will strike next. I can get better conspiracy plots off many other websites......
Yes, you guys are the only state whose counties went 100% red last November !
You could post it, but you’d probably get banned....I’ll think it for you.
