With taxes set to skyrocket, Obama must not even intend to run for reelection
December 23, 2009 | E. Pluribus Unum

Posted on 12/23/2009 6:10:11 AM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

By the time 2012 rolls around, the Obamacare taxes are going to be grinding on people so badly that there will be a revolt at the ballot box.

The only possible explanation for this is that Obama knows he can't run for a second term anyway, because of the birth certificate issue, and is merely trying to do as much damage as he can as quickly as possible.

Can anyone think of any other explanation?

I'll still show up to vote in 2010, but I think the process is hopelessly tainted. We've lost the country, and the political elite will choose who our leaders are. We the people are not part of that process any more.

Armed rebellion will be required. It's politics by other means.

“Obama won’t care if he is a 1-termer if it means ramming his agenda down America’s throat.”

Yep. That’s in the Alinsky book. Do whatever it takes and use whateve system allows you the easiest access. 0bama would have been a Republican if he could do what he’s doing as one. It was just easier to be a Dem...

I think -21nobama (yes, -21, how ‘bout that!) plans to super rig the 2010 and 2012 elections. Between the ACORN and SEIU thugs, we’ll have so much fraud going on it may be impossible to overcome it. 2008 was just a rehearsal.

In the end, nobama will be reelected and will eventually appoint himself King For Life.

How do we stop this? Trying to go through the courts will likely suck. Armed insurrection maybe although there is another possibility.

Can’t you just hear the college history professors in 20 years....

“0bama was the most effective 1-term president in the history of the US. Now that he heads up the UN and tells the world what to do, we finally have equality.”

Yesterday, Fox News reported that Reid has put into the Senate bill the proviso that there can be no reconsideration of the Obama HellCare bill by the Senate in the future. All such attempts will be considered “out of order.” I only heard it once.
In other words, if the US voters are stupid enough to vote for a Communist government it can never vote them out? This needs to be taken up by Glenn Beck, Rush and every other conservative media person because, if true, it is a blatant attack on our ability to vote out Leftists and their disastrous programs, and we are now slaves to the federal government.

He may plan to steal the election.

Or, he may plan to Cloward/Piven the country into some kind of a crisis, where elections are suspended. That is what I have been pondering. Manufactured crisis seems to be their favored tactic.

He knows he can’t win nor can his Democrats so—a little crisis is set up-—a Reichstag fire if you will—and the election will be suspended for the time being. Then the party in power will ban hate speech radio and jail Rush, Hanity, Lavin, Beck, etc.. Then they will ban Hate Books, like the Bible and books by Conservatives, Then they will ban hate parties, like the American Nazis and Republicans. In the 2012 election there will only be a few fringe parties and the Union dominated Democrats. Obama will will with 99% of the Vote!

I think he has already suspended the Constitution. I think the rest of your post is exactly right.

He's going to gut America — economically and militarily —and become Secretary General of the United Nations. Get us out of the way and a one world government becomes much more attainable.

That's my hunch.

"Anyone who votes for this clown now is an enemy of this nation IMO."

That's the conclusion I'm coming to also. I've got "friends" in the neighborhood that voted for this jerk and still wants to "give him a chance" ... these are not my friends ... and I intend to treat them as such. Why have "friends" who support losing the country. I don't think I'll regret losing them.

Andy McCarthy had the same thesis yesterday at National Review in "Mark's Dems Strategic / GOP Tactical Theory."

Democrats have their eyes on a different end-game than our guys do: namely, the establishment of permanent, European-style socialism in the U.S. Our guys are focused on converting Obama radicalism into big-time electoral success in the next election cycle. The Dems have already factored in that likelihood and are betting — over the long haul — that even if the GOP cuts deeply into Dem majorities or takes over Congress (and even takes over the White House in 2012), Republicans will lack the commitment (and perhaps the numbers) to roll back what the Left is accomplishing now.

The legal-illiterates in Congress can write anything they want into a bill.

It doesn't mean it means anything.

The next Congress can write a bill negating the original bill.

Their bill is as legally binding as the previous Congress' bill.

And the Dems aren’t factoring in national bankruptcy.

He never was planning on it. He is a one term suicide run since the beginning...

He may try, but he will lose almost as badly as Dukakis.

“O” is getting a lot of help from the commies (both D and R) in congress.

* NAFTA has taken all our jobs and that was supposed to be a good thing for America.

* Our health care system will be ruined in a few days, for the good of America.

* Congress has fallen in bed with the UN and Globalism, for the good of America.

* Congress has seen to it that our currency has become almost worthless. Of course, that is good for America too.

* Congress has rendered our borders useless. However that is good for politician vote getting, especially if the illegals are given SS, and Med Care at no cost to them.

Need I continue?

Khrushchev said communism will bury the US, and I think it's starting to look like he was right.

When congress makes all of the tens of millions of illegals into legals before the 2010 elections, then they will have a PERMANENT lock on control of the USA, unless reversed by civil war.

Back down to -18 today, but still he has a 55 overall disapproval rating. The numbers today were 26 strongly approve and 44 strongly disapprove. Still lower than whale sh** and the trend is down.

He isn’t leveling the playing field. He is deliberately running US industry away so that more and more people will be out of work or underemployed and dependent on government.

What he doesn’t realize is that people who have tasted freedom make terrible slaves.
