The Coming Resignation of Barack Obama

Months ago, I predicted in this column that President Obama would so discredit himself in office that he wouldn't even be on the ballot in 2012, let alone have a prayer of being reelected. Like President Johnson in 1968, who had won a much bigger victory four years previously than Obama did in 2008, President Obama will be so politically defunct by 2012 that he won't even try to run for reelection.

I am now ready to predict that President Obama will not even make it that far. I predict that he will resign in discredited disgrace before the fall of 2012. Like my previous prediction, that is based not just on where we are now, but where we are going under his misleadership.

Is the President Above the Law?

Watergate was supposed to have established that Presidents are not above the law. If that is so, President Obama may have to resign for breaking the law in the Sestak affair.

Exactly what I was thinking. Both BHO and Michelle will get high paying jobs given to them (again!) and they can enjoy the good life with secret service protection!

Bambi is tired of working so hard as remember, he skipped many days of his Senate career and didn’t care to research bills they were voting for. He’s all play no work type of guy which the poor see as a hero. The poor want to be “rich enough” not to work!!

This guy is too arrogant to resign and he will give black candidates for president a bad name for many years to come. Hell, he’s not black like me, black mother and father!

The only thing Obama seems to have improved since he took office is his handicap (in golf).

And even that is debatable.

If we can take the secured “blackberry” away from him he will go down. That “blackberry” arrangement is the basis for his secret govt actions and he must be stripped of it in the name of public information and the right to know. Just as emails were deemed public information. Unfortunately, the Clinton’s lost theirs and withheld Bill’s medical records which started it all.

Im honestly sick of reading bullshit like this...

- Zero is not going to resign (or be removed).

- The socialist media is not going to turn on Zero.

- The brainwashed masses are not going to suddenly convert to “conservatives” and give up their zombie march to socialism. The government indoctrination centers (k-12 and college) and the PR wing of the socialist party (Media) will guarantee that never happens.

- Socialists who typically vote for socialists but happen to also be of the Jewish faith or of Hebrew decent will not stop voting for socialists. What happens to the Nation of Israel is of little or no concern to them. These people will NEVER vote for limited government “conservatives” because their ideology is SOCIALIST.

- Union members will ALWAYS be a reliable force for the socialist party in this country. They will NEVER be a force for freedom and natural rights. EVER...

- Defeating the democrat party in an election is not going to win us anything. We have to defeat the entirety of the socialist “war machine” to claim victory. That includes the unions, indoctrination centers, Media and the zombies who vote for socialists. Our fight is against the people who support socialism and not just the people they elect to enslave the rest of us.

- Admitting socialists into the republican party to “win” otherwise “unwinable” elections is just SUICIDAL strategery. Socialists in the GOP are paving a path to socialism just as sure as the socialists in the democrat party are. They are NOT the “good” the the “perfect” is the enemy of, they are just the enemy and should be treated as such.

- We do NOT have forever to make a stand. Due to the efforts of the indoctrination centers and the socialist media, the number of people who can even wrap their minds around the concept of natural rights much less even know what natural rights are, are dwindling every day. EVEN the “reddest” of red states will eventually lose to the rot that is being spread through the population. We will never be stronger than we are TODAY and every day we grow weaker.

This post isnt meant to be “defeatist”. I think its an honest assessment of the “battlefield” conditions. If we mean to win our freedom from the tyranny that has been set upon us then we NEED to know EXACTLY what we are facing and account for it. If our goal is to be free then we need to know what it will take to achieve that goal in our lifetime. We also need to be willing to cut the bonds with people who refuse to give up their chains. We cannot drag people into something they do not want, our best option is to leave them behind, and perhaps some day they will catch up to us and rejoin us.

The clock is ticking...

If (when) things go south for him, I'm convinced they have other plans for him...Like Sec Gen of the UN or world leader

No, like Dealey Plaza.

His tremendous ego will never allow him to resign

But it will allow him to suicide in office! (Hey. A man can hope right?)

His handlers will probably go for the most dramatic version for Obama.

Stage a fake and successful assassination, Obama gets schools and highways named after him and everyone forgets about his hidden past.

Obama gets some facial surgery and ear lopping and goes into hiding where he can place golf the rest of his life.

"Unless the media turns on him, and they haven’t really yet. A few grumblings but he is still their President and they have really helped to keep things under the radar."

Yep -- looks like this idea is headed to the same place as Manning's "trial and conviction" of Øbozo -- media oblivion,,,,

Sh*t in one hand and wish into the other, and see which one fills up the quickest. Obama is not going anywhere until he is lead out of office after being defeated. His entire time in office as well and the year leading up to his election was the expressed declaration that he was better than anyone else in the world. Remember, “We are what we have been waiting for.” Notwithsanding the alliteration this narcissist really believes the crap that has been ladeled on him. He carries himself like Mussolini (as well as governs with the same rapacious disregard for the individual). He is a collectivist for everyone but himself. For, himself, he prefers to be the oligarchy, while the rest of the American public sucks hind titty. He lives by the creed, “What is good for the goose, is not necesary for the gander.”

You underestimate the size of this man's inflated ego and how he sees himself.
He thinks IMO he is Christ-like, a religious kind of figure on some level and can overcome anything.

In other words, he's too stupid to know to not run again or quit.

Michelle Malkin?
This well thought out article was written by Peter Ferrara.

As noted at the link, Peter Ferrara is director of entitlement and budget policy at the Institute for Policy Innovation, a policy advisor to the Heartland Institute, and general counsel of the American Civil Rights Union. He served in the White House Office of Policy Development under President Reagan, and as Associate Deputy Attorney General of the United States under the first President Bush. He is a graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Law School.

I’d give his opinion much consideration.

I’d guess more like Jimmy Carter, JR than Bill Clinton.

He is going to set back respect for blacks in public life about 50 years

He already has. We cannot afford another affirmative action president.

“It will be because the job is just too hard and nobody appreciates him. He’ll say “F**k this sh*t” and walk away.”

lol, you must be kidding. His wife would kill him in his sleep if he even joked about walking away from the white house perks.

Well here's praying that he jokes about it a lot.
