Couldn’t agree with you more.
We have had elections on schedule in the middle of the Civil War, the World Wars, and frankly, ever since the founding of the republic. It is hard to imagine a manmade disaster of sufficient magnitude to cause their postponement; especially given the ineptness of the Obama administration in just doing the normal things, like governing.

A well-considered article from The American Thinker, as always. The more realistic threat, I believe, is that of an economic meltdown, leading not to "martial law" but to the assumption of ever-greater powers by the Federal government, whose actions will have largely caused the crisis in the first place.

“These same things were said of the Klintoons.............but now, I wonder about a guy that cant even show us his birth certificate.............”
Good point. Would anyone reading thread think that America would have ever elected a person as POTUS who could not be verifiable eligible?
To: bestintxas
if martial law is ever introduced you will see the true patriots enmass and it won’t be pretty....
To: ctdonath2
“This martial law Underdog vs. Ultimate Tyrant notion is a fantasy which has continued unabated for the last quarter-century I have been following it.”
Strange, I have never heard it suggested or thought of it
until Obambie came along?
Maybe you subscribed to a lot of kook publications over the last 25 years...
I dunno, but I see everything being possible under THIS Marxist administration.

Oh, silly me! I thought it was something like “Joint Resource Defense” or some other acronym from DC that nobody’s ever heard of!...........

In our system, you can't do it unless the Constitution sez so.
Yeah, but since when did Obama ever heed the Constitution unless it suited him?
To: bestintxas
This time last year I would have said this all rumors and innuendos not to be given much credit. However, the way the Rats used Reconciliation to ram through the Health Care bill, I wouldn't doubt for one second they aren't planning more assaults on our Constitution.

Grab your tin foil hat, folks. This is a 7 on the Michael Rivero scale.

The line of the day:
Commandant Zero is being revealed as the most inept president on record. This is in no way hyperbole; it is a sober evaluation of the record as it exists.
Look for a "failure" in the communication (phone, internet, TV...) sector if/when this happens!
GOD SAVE THE REPUBLIC!

BTW, the number of folks here on FR who still think we’re “just in a cycle” makes life much easier for the radicals in the WH.

We are keeping an eye on the storm. My granddaughter turns seven today. As a vet, we will pounce when the time is right. This $400 million he is giving to the terrorist is just another reason to be ready to fight. We are ONE and we are STRONG. Sempre Fi.

Huh?
I said I cannot imagine the people “I know”, who are all retired or senior leaders (Full Col and up) sending our troops into the streets.
How could you possible construe that to mean the opposite?
To: Red Badger
The same was also said of Bushes 1&2. The wording of the fantasy has remained unchanged for decades.
As for anything being different this time, I don’t think the Obama is competent enough to pull off a coup. He lacks the raging will required; a would-be tyrant must be literally willing to kill, by his own hand and by proxy, to achieve his goals. Putin? Yes. Imadinnerjacket? Yes. Jong-Ill? Yes. Obama? Insert sissy-boy photos here.

“Nonsense” doesn't convey the depth of idiocy on display in this article.
