At the risk of being labeled an inveterate pessimist, as we approach what may prove to be the most critical election day in our republic’s history, I cannot help but feel a sense of discouragement about America’s future (accompanied, of course, by the knowledge that He works in miracles, so nothing is ever hopeless).
As I see it, we will witness one of three likely outcomes of the November 2nd vote:
(1) If the election is close, the thousands of leftist trial lawyers hired by the DNC and/or Kerry/Edwards, who are already gearing up to take this election out of the hands of the American citizenry and place it in the hands of activist judges, will shift into high gear, and begin an all-out effort to use a combination of validating massive voter fraud, and fabricating pseudo-legal accusations against Bush/Cheney forces, to steal this election. They are preparing to make Florida 2000 look like a romp in the park.
I find it fascinating, although certainly not out of character for these supposed defenders of truth and justice, that they and their kind despise and defile Richard Nixon, whose only major offense was the attempted cover-up of a third-rate political burglary. And yet, faced with the prospect of unveiling blatant voter fraud in Illinois and Texas, without which he may well have been the victor over Kennedy in ’60, Nixon, rather than contest the votes in those highly suspicious precincts vote counts, passively accepted the highly questionable results. The reason: he did not want to put our republic through the kind of cataclysmic Constitutional crisis that would have ensued.
Fast forward forty-four years and we have the same party that was the source of the questionable vote counts in both Chicago and Houston/Dallas, not only not seeking to avoid such a Constitutional crisis, but scheming feverishly, days before the votes are even cast, to see to it that one occurs. Why? Because they are enemies of the Constitution, and will stop at nothing to see to it that an ultra leftist (who, by definition, harbors no allegiance to anything but a globalist utopian agenda) sits in the White House. The Constitution … and America’s sovereignty and security … be damned.
If Tuesday sees the above scenario, we may not know the results of this election until well into the month of December, when the electoral college must meet to choose the new leader of the free world.
(2) If Kerry/Edwards are victorious on the 2nd, the voters of America (although probably not a majority of them – since a statistically significant number of dead people, house pets, felons, illegals, and people with multiple residences will have cast their votes for the democrat ticket) will have voted on the basis of superficial, Madison-Avenue-created, sound bite ‘knowledge’ that bears no resemblance to truth. The majority of Kerry/Edwards votes will have been cast -- thanks to a combination of voter apathy and rampant media bias -- without the benefit of a genuine knowledge of the democrat candidates’ decades-long resumes that exhibit an unambiguous adherence to a treasonous, anti-American agenda.
(3) Bush/Cheney will be victorious. This will be a remarkable outcome (occurring in spite of all borderline criminal machinations), and will only occur if the Republican ticket’s genuine support is nothing short of landslide proportions, the likes of which could not even be negated by massive voter fraud and pre-election plans to steal the electoral votes of swing states whose totals appear close.
But, even if Bush/Cheney are victorious, we cannot long rest on our laurels and assume that all is well. Far from it.
After an election loss, leftists do not simply lick their wounds and accept the voice of the people. And the stakes in this election will magnify beyond all reason the leftist penchant to attack, subvert and destroy those who took victory from their grasp. Elitists, after all, were destined to rule, to dictate, to dole out largesse to the masses. And when the masses do not place them in the positions of power to which they have been called, elitists become enraged, and insatiably vindictive. Civility and law/truth/justice will find themselves obscured by the obsession to gain the power that was not won through the normal channels that representative republican government supplies.
The mainstream media will be relentless in the criticisms, attacks, and counterfeit stories aimed at the President and his lame-duck administration (After all, what price has Dan Rather played for his unprofessional, agenda-driven ‘reporting’ of the Bush/National Guard memos story? The collective long-term yawn with which the public has reacted to his journalistic charlatanism has simply provided the unaccountable media a green light for more of the same).
Even small errors of judgment on the part of this President will be grotesquely magnified so as to rise to the level of an impeachable offense. And the war on terror – especially that portion of it occurring within the borders of Iraq – will be consistently painted with a broad black brush, with the objective of portraying it as Bush’s Waterloo, and America’s final imperialistic failure.
No matter the results of this election, the one and only thing that can prevent the ultimate success of the leftist agenda, many more horrifying terrorist attacks within our borders, and the eventual demise of the glorious American experiment, is the American citizen.
If the polls are accurate, a man who is seeking the Presidency of a nation he loathes is at least within striking distance of a leader who, although his domestic policy weaknesses are numerous, has conducted the war on terror, and the beginnings of the rebuilding of a liberated nation, with something close to brilliance. It would appear that the average American citizen needs either a more responsible, realistic set of priorities, or to spend significant time contemplating the serious, prophetic warning of one of our visionary Founders:
No people will tamely surrender their liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and virtue is preserved. On the contrary, when people are universally ignorant … they will sink under their own weight without the aid of foreign invaders … Samuel Adams in a letter to James Warren, 4 November, 1775

I read someone called you a "national treasure" on another thread this week. I'm going to call you one again, just to refresh the consensus. ;)
Well done.

That's one endorsement I can't imagine is gonna help Hanoi John...MUD
If only the average American possessed the knowledge and insight represented on this thread, the polls would be reading 90/10 right now -- as they should be. (Any society has to put up with its statistically normal ten percent village idiocy. :)
Good night, all.

'Cuz those DeadWhiteChristianMales got nothing to offer a Progressive Society like our own...that's why we so wantonly ignore the Constitution, to our everlasting detriment, imho...MUD
I wish I didn't live on the other end of the state. I would join you all!
This is an excellent essay as always Joanie, and I agree with Mud that this stands out--

Heh heh heh...MUD (10/30/2002)
The mere fact that a traitor who is to the left of Ted Kennedy is dead even in the polls fills me with dread for our future.
I see a period of tribulation ahead for America.
A Civil War or Dirty War is not out of the realm of possibility.
It's coming. Almost time to take out the trash.
The domestic enemies may be more of a mortal danger than our foreign enemies.
If this scenario comes to pass, the Right cannot back down in the face of rampant voter FRaud...this election is too important!! The RATS may be irrationally angry, but the Right must remain resolute...our children's futures depend upon it!!
FReegards...MUD
My fingers are crossed for Option 3. The Cali MSM had Gray Davis dead even with Arnold right up to the recall election. The Cali MSM was pulling out all the stops to help Davis, it was a microcosm of this 2004 election. And Arnold swamped Davis, and the MSM and their crooked pollsters.
"The Left's Last Shot?"
Never. Dracula was easier to kill.
Marxists never quit, they just go deep undercover as reporters and professors.
There is NO other option that will keep this Nation together.
If that traitor Kerry should win...or if the thousands of lawyers (future fish-food) should descend upon our court system to force a Kerry Presidency...it would mean the beginning of a civil war.
redrock
Really ? I didn't watch the numbers that close. Ahhhhnuld landslided Grey Davis eh ? If MSM is playing such a dangerous game for ratings we really need to do "something"........what I dunno, but that pisses me off that they get away with disinformational numbers when they know better. All to sell tickets for travelocity and policies for Geico Insurance per se.......damn !
As Lee Harris has said,
"Civilized people forget how much work it is not to kill one’s neighbors, simply because this work was done by our ancestors so that it could be willed to us as an heirloom. They forget that in time of danger, in the face of the enemy, they must trust and confide in each other, or perish. They forget that to fight an enemy it is necessary to have a leader whom you trust, and how, at such times, this trust is a civic duty and not evidence of one’s credulity. They forget, in short, that there has ever been a category of human experience called the enemy."
From the Preface of Civilization and Its Enemies – The Next Stage of History
That's what the idiots on the Left have forgotten, and their betrayal of the moral and civic duty to stand behind our leaders is beyond treason and treachery - it is the stuff of which mass murder and atriocity is made. They so despise the freedom and prosperity of Western civilization that they are willing to make common cause with its enemies. They are in the final analysis willing to aid and abet those who want us all dead. And in their secret heart of hearts, the Machiavellian, Granscian, totalitarian Left wants people like you and me and our families dead as well. We're in their way, you see.
For that they must - and will - pay.
You keep cranking them out, Joanie. Why aren't you on the staff of some major conservative publication?
Both you and Harris really know what you're talking about.
