I think you are certainly correct that we'll not easily get rid of what Obama has wrought.

But if it is any consolation, the harder we have to fight to rid ourselves of it, the more the victory will mean to us and to the country...and the greater will be our defense against its return.

It took the Russians 70 years to throw off the chains of Soviet communism and the Poles did it in 40 years. It CAN be done. Probably not in our lifetimes and probably not without another, perhaps violent, revolution.

Merry Christmas!

I agree.

I was taken aback with this statement:

"It took messianic narcissistic Barack Obama to expose the full extent of the mess that a once noble tradition of 19th-century liberalism had devolved into. Only he could have rammed it down the throats of the American people, and when he is done, we will suffer, but also sicken of it for quite a while."

The presumption is that it snuck up on us which is not the case. Conservatives have shouted out, long and hard, against the thuggish agenda of operators like 0b0z0 to anyone who would listen.

The problem is that too many people long for the yoke of oppression - sold under the guise of "cradle to grave" nanny-ism. Between the allure of "simplifying my life by turning it over to the government" and the "something for nothing" types far too many have leaned toward the state as a crutch.

I wish I knew the answer to this mess - I do not. I have prepared as best I can for the the natural consequence of 0baminism - the collapse of civil order. I won't say how or to what extent because I know that we are being monitored. I also decline to say how I will react should a state (or my state) rebel for the same reason.

Dark times are coming. Our economy is amazingly resilient, but it is not bullet-proof. It can take only so many hits. The dhimmicrats are hell-bent on forcing it to do things that defy the natural laws and in doing so will plunge us into catastrophe.

Keep your powder dry...

Love VDH, but even he is operating under the assumption that when we sicken of this totalitarian regime, we'll just be able to trade it in.

I assure you, that will not be the case.

Absolutely right! They have fought too long, most of it under the radar, and too hard to not hold on to it now. They have been seeding the path to success for several years by using groups like ACORN to sign up illegal and phony voters, voters still on the rolls, and they will be adding more. If that somehow fails they will then go to the courts and have as many recounts as it takes, "finding" new votes along the way, to eke out a victory.

If that fails, or if pre-election polls show the likely hood of losing, there will be a crisis requiring federal intervention with martial law or somesuch.

We are no longer in the realm of politics as usual.

If you mean that “The Divine One” and his apostles will not voluntarily surrender their offices, then I agree that there is a good possibility that this will be so. It is time for Americans to start thinking about “keeping their powder dry.” The coming election will be a good test. If it is as corrupt as I think it will be then the current crowd will maintain power signaling to the rest of us what must be done.
