One of the best articles I've read in regards to what this nation has faced over last 4 years with this administration.

The truely scary part is that his approval is still around 50%.

In the end, I still think the greatest threat to our nation and our inividual liberties is the media.

If the media would do its job and tell the truth about what Obama was doing instead of sugar coating everything that goes on, then the American people would have a better handle on the situation. If the media had properly investigated Obama he would have never been elected in the first place.

The media appointed Obama after appointing our last Repulican candidate and now they are about to appoint our next candidate for us as well, to ensure that regardless of who we vote for, they get the candidate THEY want.

The single greatest threat to out great nation is the American media.....by far.

Marxist Obama will be crushed like a bug in 2012. The tea party sweep of 2010 was just a warm-up call for the tea party landslide coming up in November!!

We are the resistance!!

Rebellion is on!!

I just do not believe it is that high.
I am not sure how they conduct the polls. If I got a call from a pollster I would probably lie and say I loved ZERO just to throw the poll off.
I doubt I will ever receive one or I may have already been called. If the number doesn't show on my caller ID I either don't answer or pick up the phone and put it down so I can waste the telemarketers time.

The constitution is no barrier on these people.
They’ll do what they want to do unless and until

SOMEONE ACTUALLY STOPS THEM.

And I’m with you about the media.
If a peaceful solution to this leftist tyranny is prevented by the media, then a not-so-peaceful solution will be inevitable, and they will be among those decorating lampposts along the way.

With regard to this lates threat, focus on the fact that this is not about the Trojan Horses of "women's health" or "contraception."

It's not even limited to the principle of religious liberty or freedom of speech.

It is about an unconstitutional assumption of power over rights which "the People" withheld from the purview of the government they structured through their Constitution. If this arrogation of power to the Executive is allowed to stand in this case, then all of "the People's" rights are at risk.

Inasmuch as their Constitution allowed no power to infringe on any specified right in the First Amendment, then the person who assumes such a power also does not possess a power to "compromise," or "accomodate."

May I suggest that readers of this thread read Leonard Read's "Anything That's Peaceful," which can be read online, and share this wonderful and easy-to-read book with as many people as you can. The book itself can be ordered from FEE.

Not only does Read provide insight into the ideas of liberty versus those of tyranny (as in socialism), but his Chapter 5, entitled, "How Socialism Harms the Individual" is especially enlightening for any who may not see what is happening in America in its proper context, as pertains to the individuals involved.

In Chapter 5, under the heading "The Authoritarian," he begins by stating, "Of the threee classifications of persons involved in social leveling by compulsion, the authoritarian--the one who administers the taking and the giving--has been too little diagnosed." When you read it, you will see the nature of the man before us today. This section of Chapter 5 paints a portrait most Americans will recognize.

An extra bonus of this wonderful book is that it contains Read's famous essay, "I, Pencil." Copies should be placed in every school library and in every home school setting.

Many of us here on FR did know... and we warned as loudly as we could and to anyone that would listen. Look at what mccain said about him being a fine man and that Americans had nothing to fear from an obama presidency. We have called him a unsurping, kenyan, fagot marxist that hates America and whose power is derived from the prince of darkness... but even on FR we have evildoers that make excuses for obama... just like mccain did.

“One of the best articles I’ve read in regards to what this nation has faced over last 4 years with this administration. “

And here’s what I don’t understand. Even if Romney is the nominee, he’s still better than Obama. Yet, many freepers act as though Romney is worse. Romney doesn’t want to dismantle the constitution. Romney doesn’t hate America. Romney’s biggest fault, and it’s a huge fault, is he just wants to BE president. I don’t think Romney has a plan or a passion, he just wants his name on the door.

Ok, so imagine Romney is the nomminee. We could survive Romney, we will NOT survive 4 more years of Obama.

Good article. Obama is not stupid or incompetent. He is a driven idealog doing what he can as he can to advance Marxism in this country.

Some years ago George Soros told the world he’d bought the democrat party, how do members of the msm vote? democrat!
But we need to look at our “conservative” electeds. Many of those who sit on the “conservative” side of the house were democrats at one time. When the Republicans gained a majority in either house or senate, a “conservative” democrat changed parties. That democrat didn’t want to lose the power/prestige/money of his/her seat so changed to the party “now” in power. Hence we have a Republican party full of RINOS. These RINOS are able to change the minds of weaker republicans, so the democrats get most of their wishes most of the time. Look what Boehner said to the incoming freshman Republicans when they gathered for their first official meeting.

Conservatives have underestimated him at their peril.

No, conservatives haven't underestimated BO, we knew exactly what he was all about. It is moderates in the GOP that refused (and refuse) to believe that he is an extreme Leftist, the Neville Chamberlains of the party.

There is no doubt that the RATS are behind the trashing of our constitution. The assault on the 2nd amendment,the first amendemnt re. speech and religion. Obama has consistently appointed czars to manage large portions of the government all in violation of the onstitution. Recently, Supreme Court Justice Ginsberg goes before Egypt ian media and tells them that the new Egyptian government should follow the South African constitution and not the US constitution. Just last week the NY Times had a major article describing the US constitution as outdated and irelevent. Give Obama another four years and don’t be surprised to see a major push to do away with the two term for presidents. Its getting late and with a corrupt MSM, before we know it our freedom will become a thing of the past.

The crux of the problem is that there were more than enough stupid, envious, socialistic, racist, brain dead people to elect Obama to office and they are still out there voting and breeding.

One way or another, Obama will someday be gone from the White House.
But the kind of people who put him in office will not be going away.

Obama is an ideologue, but he is not the one in charge. He didn’t magically go from community organizer to President practically overnight. What the Obama reelection will mean to those in power is that they no longer need to fear the armed serfs. Obama’s second term will be the official end of the great era of the American yeoman and the return of the historical status quo, aka tyranny.

The other President that came from Illinois started the process to destroy the republic. O-bomb-us is just finishing the job.

When you promise to rob Peter to pay Paul, you’re guaranteed to get Paul’s approval and vote.

The sheer number of people who want stuff they didn’t earn is getting larger and larger. There is still a work ethic and pride in it, but more and more people are willing to take whatever handouts are given to them.
