What do you see as his end-game next year? Martial Law?
If baraq is able to hang on to the office for another term, there is nothing he won’t do.
He will have nothing to lose and he has no intention of doing anything positive for our country.
Martial law would be a start.
Look into his mentor’s ideas. Bill ayers talked about rounding up political enemies and putting them in concentration camps for re education purposes.
“What do you see as his end-game next year? Martial Law?”
I am among the worst predictors you’ll encounter; that I’ll say first, before I share my thoughts.
I am not sure there is a specific end-game. I think that 0bama wishes to create “states” meaning “conditions”, circumstances”, out of which he can be re-elected. That IMO is his plan.
A vandal spray paints your garage door with the idea of marking your property as his territory, showing he can “get to you” (making you both angry and insecure) or generating some kind of notoriety or publicity for himself. Or some combo of all three.
0bama, to me, is a juvenile delinquent. That’s all there is to it. He hates the American system and wants to trash it. He does not think much about what might come along to replace it should he succeed in tearing it down, he just impulsively wants to trash it. It’s vandalism. There’s nothing good about America to him, except hollow, vague, obsolete ideals. He has no understanding or appreciation of American creativity or aspiration or industrialism. He thinks everything we have in the US we stole from some poor unfortunate others. We are rapists. We rape people, we rape other countries. Now it’s our turn. He identifies more with nationalities that express hostility to the US. He idolizes these celebrities and Wall St goons for their power and influence and thinks he’s pretty cool being able to hang out with them. He’s only in it for his own aggrandizement. But the common thread is the idea that these celebs are getting over on the system, and that, my FRiend, is his fondest aspiration.
For example, he doesn’t think deeply about nor listen to adverse opinion on healthcare “reform”. He doesn’t care about what the true reality will be like for the people he thinks he has fooled into following his (and they are not really his) ideas on HC reform. He wants to sell his crap as “reform” and enable himself to say he destroyed what came or existed before him. That_is_it. I seriously believe that is all there is for him. That’s as far as his thinking goes. He doesn’t understand nor wish to understand nor care about what will exist post-0bama. He just wants to have America experience this giant come-uppance and be humiliated and for him to arrogate for himself the power and fame and notoriety he thinks he will obtain from the sycophants he surrounds himself with for being the one who brings it all down. This is the way he will achieve the celebrity that his hangers-on and hoops buddies have.
Does this sound crazy? Think about how much admiration he will have from Bill Ayers, for example, who wanted to kill the pigs and bring the system down. And still does. And Reverend Wright? 0bama would literally be a saint of Wright’s church if he could say to the reverend “Look how I made the white man pay! Look how I brought down this rotten country!” What about Van Jones?
He wants to destabilize and de-traditionalize America and its citizens so that the rubes will come begging to him in
various states of semi-starvation and so he can lord over them. I make no exaggeration. He wants to bring in illegals in endless numbers because their economic impact is continual torment to the taxpayers and their votes not only subvert the will of legitimate citizens, but ther numbers and reproduction rates physically threaten natural citizens with rising crime, deteriorating neighborhoods, and balkanization. It constantly renews the race card he plays all the time, it regenerates the class warfare card he is always pulling, and it forever guarantees an underclass he can exploit for votes. It is a very consistent strategy for undermining whatever security citizens once thought they had.
He is a vandal. He’s a juvenile delinquent. A petulant child, he only wants to tear down as a means of gaining attention. He wants to be on TV every other day.
Think about it.
Martial Law may be on 0bama’s whiteboard (ha!) but I sort of doubt that because it would be bound to generate substantial resistance.
There is NO possibility of Obama imposing martial law, no matter how bad things get for him.
Why would it be in his interest to lay all of his cards on the table like that, and invite popular disgust and organized armed resistance, not to mention (and this is of great significance for Obama) world disapproval?
He has a lapdog media at his disposal, and still maintains a following of loyal, sycophantic Democrats, including a claque of respected business leaders, a waddling army of union goons, flash mobs of illiterate criminals, and a massive chunk of the apolitical lumpenproletariat that still regards him as clean, articulate, and cool.
The art of shaping popular opinion has become greatly refined in the past 50 years. Using martial law today, as Lincoln did, would be like conducting heart surgery with a hacksaw. It is in Obama’s interest to continue to engage in verbal legerdemain- demonizing his opponents, erecting strawmen, instigating conflicts that destabilize a social institution or three. In this era of instant, participatory media, there is no need to impose martial law when there are far more effective tools.
One should be armed, of course, but this is to defend yourself against brigands and warlords after our debt-fueled, post-capitalist economic system collapses in a heap of dust. The armaments will be good for barter, too.
Second American revolution.
