There would be huge marches on Washington with everything from pointy sticks and pitchforks to tanks.
I don't think even as narcissistic as he is that he would do that. It would be his Benito Mussolini moment.

Rush Limbaugh: ‘Soviet’ Obama scares me By: MJ Lee June 26, 2012 03:07 PM EDT
Rush Limbaugh said on Tuesday he’s “scared” of the Obama administration for its opposition to Arizona’s immigration policy, and he accused the president of wanting illegal immigrants to enter the United States so they can be “converted” into voters before Election Day.
“I am sitting here, my mouth agape, wide open, in stunned disbelief,” the conservative radio host said. “I shouldn’t be surprised, but nevertheless I am. And I’m scared. I am scared of what these people are doing to this country.”
Limbaugh was responding to the administration’s decision Monday to revoke its so-called 287(g) agreements with Arizona law enforcement agencies — a partnership with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement that gives local officers the power to enforce federal immigration laws.
The move came hours after the Supreme Court upheld the “show me your papers” provision of the state’s controversial S.B. 1070 immigration law and infuriated the state’s Republican Gov. Jan Brewer, who accused the Obama administration of telling Arizona to “drop dead.”
“The Democrat Party — losing traditional American voters in droves, left and right — needs as many foreign citizens and illegal immigrants to come into this country as possible to be converted into voters,” Limbaugh continued, according to a transcript of his show. “He’s written off white, working families. He’s now written off the state of Arizona. Arizona was a state that was in play.…Well, not any longer.”

“stockpirate if you live to be 10,000 years old you will never do as much good for the conservative cause as those two men.”
Bull!
Those two men got paid well to speak their minds and “lead” but when push came to shove and it was time to speak and damn the consequences they remembered the FCC paper they need to get paid well. It isn’t a game of points, it;s what you do when things are getting dire and something must be done.
Unless there are legal consequences for this man to face the next President (even Romney) could sign an executive order to outlaw guns or an EO for just about any policy. This problem just does NOT end with the Obama administration (especially if it's a policy supported by the left).
I hear ya...
Its amazing to me how many times I see a stupid post only to check the nic and find it was posted by sockpirate!
Those of us that were observant in 2008 knew this could happen and it is still a possibility. He is lined up to get creamed in November and they need to get everything done NOW because there will be chaos and turmoil between the time he loses and the time we have to send in the regulars to kick him out.
He believes his power is supreme and he will do whatever he can to get what he wants. They are on the verge of an epic loss that will sink the democrat party into generational minority status and it will push them farther and farther left. The decision, if it goes against him, will make yesterday’s temper tantrum look like a church party.
Those of us that would not dirty their hands by using it to vote for McCain should take a long hard look in the mirror. Those thinking of a protest vote should look back in history as to what good a protest vote does.
I fear that the United States might not be so united on Friday as they are today.
I have been worried about it since the day Obooboo was elected but hearing Rush say it is spooky. He usually stays away from that kind of stuff.

Unless there are legal consequences for a president who spits at the very Constitution he took an oath to uphold this will be the new way for every future President.
Rush is afraid because there is nobody standing up to him. He has unchecked authority and he’s acting in a way that makes one believe he’s purposefully trying to create a crisis that will result in the conditions that can justify cancelling the elections.
Thats exactly what I think he is trying to do. The GOP certainly isn’t doing anything to stop him. We will be lucky if we are not in CWII by Oct.
Look what’s going on out in St. Louis.
LS-MFT!!!
Rush’s jet was grounded just like everybody else 9/11/01.
I agree. Suspending an election would be utterly unprecedented in American history, and I include colonial times. Sure, Assemblies that passed laws that the ruling oligarchs didn't like were sent home. True, the electorate was gerrymandered through property qualifications and (usually) religious tests in the 17th century. Of course, in colonial times, only the lower house was elected.
But the powers that were, no matter how tyrannical, never outlawed elections. They were content to rig or ignore them.
As for America after independence, elections were never suspended. Not even during the Civil War, not even during World War 2.
Cancelling or suspending an election is something that is utterly unprecedented in American history, period. Moreover, it would trash the very reason why Americans fought for their independence: "No Taxation Without Representation."
If Obama & Co. were insane enough to try, the initial reaction would likely be shock instead of outrage. But once it sinks in, you can bet that there would be enough outrage to make for an outright revolution - on the same grounds that the War of Independence was fought. If elections are "postponed," how long before a general tax strike?
Not much longer than it would take for a thousand petitions sent to the Supreme Court. Most likely, it would end with the Supreme Court ordering the election to be held on schedule and electoral officials complying with the Court. Obama, after all, is no Andrew Jackson - and Jackson himself would have been aghast at the notion of interrupting elections.
Yep, it would begin and end with the Supreme Court. There is absolutely no Constitutional, customary or even historical precedent for suspending elections in America. The Roe v. Wade boys could flatter themselves into thinking that they were liberating women, that they were taking a step towards freedom. To even believe the same thing about suspending elections would be insane. I can guarantee that there won't be any penumbrae in the decision should the issue come to the Supreme Court. The Court would have to be emasculated.
In so doing, Obama & Co, would just plant even more hidden outrage. In the highly unlikely event that the Supreme Court were done away with, the average Joe has lots of options. A general tax strike is only one of them.
I believe the military would spring into action if the election was cancelled. Certainly, war would be the result.
Are you from the city? Because if you're waitin' for the skunk to turn his a$$ around to run, you're gettin' sprayed.
Keep believeing that.
Mr. Obama doesn’t like Congress, doesn’t like the Supreme Court, doesn’t like the Constitution, and issues orders that are illegal. Face it, he acts like a dictator.
It would not have done any good. Why? Because before it was decided that obama was to replace Hillary as the Democrat nominee, everything about obama, down to the brand and color of toilet paper he used was made known to:1. The Democrat Party brass. 2.The Republican Party brass. 3. The main stream media. This was accompanied with the instructions of We want this man in the White House. see that it happens.All three groups did their part to make it happen. The Democrats supported him. John Mc Cain figured a way to throw the electon without it being too obvious. The main stream media lied and covered for him.
Do you think there is any chance that at some point in time the Dems will see that they can’t win and will dump Obama? Hello Hillary.
“stockpirate if you live to be 10,000 years old you will never do as much good for the conservative cause as those two men.”
If in their position and I was told not to speak about the NBC or I would be killed, I guess my life would have ended, your statement is meaningless in relation to the issue.
