It looks as if “the American sector” of America is finally sick and tired of being sick and tired, and sick and tired of being bullied by the nattering nabobs who have turned being offended into a cottage industry.

The ongoing backlash against the “tolerance mob” for the firing of Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty fame simply for believing the Bible will be felt well into 2014. The gaystapo outkicked their coverage here, and whenever you overreach like this the blowback is a female dog.

This would have been mine - but since it's so nicely written, I'll just claim it...

The Obama administration will continue to use executive orders to accelerate its progressive agenda with respect to environmental, energy and immigration policy. There will little confrontation by a Republican controlled Congress and only occasional criticism from the media regarding this practice. The “two Americas” will become more evident and it possible that several states will combine their efforts to confront progressive social policy in their respective states. Average income will continue to drop and unemployment will not substantially improve. The stock market will moderate, bonds will lose value due to an uptick in interest rates. Stocks associated with real estate and REITs should have a good year.

A significant stock market adjustment. The feds will have to start moving money to pay insurance companies screwed over by zerocare and the ruling class, coupled with dropping earning will spook the markets back to reality.

I am not sure how you equate "Hunger Games" with a battle with political correctness. ................

7. Scamnesty will be the biggest public policy battle of the year.

Both parties favor it, so the uphill fight is to stop it.

We’ll see if my preseason prediction of a Seahawks vs. Bengals Super Bowl comes true.

If it does, it will be the least watched game in Super Bowl history. ;)

Ryan would be an improvement over Boehner. He'll at least try to slow Creeping Socialism down a little more than Boehner did, but really can do nothing to stop it. Ryan is an insider, and won't challenge the trend.

Snowden is a dead man if he ever sets foot on US soil again, and he knows it. The true power players don't care about him - it's their puppets who are in a panic, and cannot tolerate the existence of a man who knows what they have done. Some Senator would have him killed - and blame it on the "Gun Nut Right."

Documents incriminating Obama and revealing him as a total fraud are discovered and released to the public. Obama is forced to resign in disgrace.

Waking up now — damn, I was only dreaming!

I was going to attempt humor but there’s not much to laugh about in my real prediction. I see a dark economic tide overtaking the United States. Not a tsunami, but a constant, persistent, tide that only heads in one direction. It is named Obamacare. I see suffering on an economic level that is jawdropping, because Americans will either be living a life of penury to afford the bloated premiums and sky-high deductibles, or they will forgo the insurance, spend nothing, and save for the event of illness. The physical suffering due to lack of care (emergency rooms will begin closing to avoid bankrupting their hospitals) will be staggering.

That will kill discretionary spending (except for the gibsmedats, who will merrily, merrily, merrily swipe that EBT for filet and lotto tickets - life is but a dream), leading to closures of restaurants, retail outlets, small businesses and sending the housing market into a coma. Eventually, this wave will reach and plunge tax collections, and the states, cities and towns will have to make deep cuts, deep enough to even make the gibsmedats turn away from the 50-inch HDTV and take notice.

And then there is inflation.

Democrats will be in a panic as this is all their doing. They will all go under the Obama bus as he no longer cares about those useful idiots (if he ever did). Their sole hope will be that vile, scum-sucking creature known as the establishment Republican, which lives to reach across the aisle and make things worse. Our only hope is the Tea Party...which I believe will revive with a vengeance that will make 2010 look like a feisty game of shuffleboard.

But I’m not an economist or even all that bright. Maybe I’m wrong and all is bliss!

My predictions:

10) No economic collapse in 2014. Another year of Main Street misery and zero job growth papered over by MSM lies. The collapse will eventually come, but the Fed is a ways off from losing control.

9) The Republicans will fail to take the Senate in 2014. Informed voting-age adults are increasingly dropping out of the electorate. The welfare classes vote (or rather, are being voted) at record rates. The GOP will fail to gain enough ground due to lack of interest on the part of people who should be its big supporters. The House will remain in GOP hands, and Paul Ryan will become Speaker.

8) Obamacare will continue to fail, yet will be declared a success by the Administration and the MSM - who will find weekly anecdotal stories about somebody's Aunt Mabel finally getting a free wart removal operation after 30 years of GOP-induced misery. Cash-for-service medicine will spike in popularity, accompanied almost immediately by government attempts to outlaw it.

7) Marco Rubio will re-emerge as the leading GOP candidate for 2016, with everyone outside the GOP elite seeing him as the token he is. GOP pundits will remain dismayed by his continual failure to outpoll Hillary Clinton.

6) Obama's approval ratings will stabilize at their current level. His absence from 2014 campaign rallies will be noted.

5) China, despite enduring serious economic headwinds, will announce a manned mission to the moon and plans for a permanent lunar base.

4) Iran will test several small nuclear bombs. There will be much dismay but no concrete action taken by the West...nor by Israel.

3) Kim Jong Un will suffer an "unexpected" and tragic accidental death, to be succeeded by a military junta loyal to his memory. In death, his image will become more powerful than the man was in life. China's Xi Jinping will pointedly tell the new North Korean junta to back the hell off of making any more nuclear threats, and tensions with South Korea will ease somewhat.

2) South Africa will explode in racial violence, a story which will be largely spiked by the MSM. The country will take several steps further down Zimbabwe's path.

1) The trial of Muhammed Morsi in Egypt will bring out damaging revelations about the Obama Administration's collaboration with the Muslim Brotherhood. The MSM will not know how to report the stories, and will unintentionally publicize details about Obama's and Hillary's actions during the Benghazi before being shushed to silence by Valerie Jarrett's flying monkeys. Impeachment will be publicly discussed for the first time - and loudly attacked as Republican racism. Ultimately, the House GOP will not act and Obama will survive the scandal and remain in office.

Here’s a real longshot for ya’:

A surprising coalition of the Congressional Black Caucus and the House Tea Party Conservatives come together to nominate former one term Congressman Allen West as Speaker of The House. West immediately charges the podium, grabs the gavel and knocks John Boehner out, thereby claiming the Speakership.

I predict Apple will come out with a smart TV that makes all other TVs look primitive by comparison. Much like the iPhone made all other cellphones look stupid back in 2007.
