...”could it be really worse than carter? because we had much higher tax rates before reagan”...

People say this election is about the economy. The economy may be on the minds of many..However, it will pale in comparison to what eventually could happen. When Carter was President, the MSM was managed by people who still believed in some fairness in journalism..That is no longer true. I do not know what kind of nation the MSM wants but what they will get from what they have done is not what they now envision. Their hatred for Judeo-Christian values has blinded their good sense. Call them the pseudo suicide bombers of America. They just might have killed our nation, though they sacrificed themselves in the process. And, this is not about Barack Obama, except to say the he is not yet qualified to be President any more than a 15 year old is ready to take over the support and nuture of a big family. Our times are perilous and we need a seasoned leader who understands the many facets of our culture as well as being deeply ingrained in the understanding of our history and especially, the foundations of our Republic. America, alone, in the history of the world, has been a very successful and unique experiment in freedom. Who among us would choose somewhere else we would have preferred to live? That could all soon change as we become like the other failed societies now existing and which have existed in the past. Socialism is not the medicine we want for our current ills. The side effects are worse than the disease..And when the people begin to feel those side effects, then communism is about to emerge as the disease. And a cure for that is eons into the future after unbelievable human suffering and war.

I believe everything in this article too, except I think a different outcome will occur. My take is that most people don’t vote because it doesn’t effect them. Who is in office doesn’t effect their ability to pay their bills or lead their lies how they see fit. I think four years of President Obama and a congressional liberal super majority will effect these things for people. They’ll be mad at themselves for not having paid attention but they’ll vent that anger on the politicians in power, the Democrats.

Hopefully during those four years, the Republican party gets its act together and returns to what it is supposed to stand for instead of having it’s main platform be “Hey at least we’re not the Democrats.”

The USA is about to elect a marxist who hates Western Civilization and who views White Christians as racists who need to give their money to the all-caring government.
But it won’t destroy the country. It will take a few years, but most people will realize that The All-Caring Messiah was just a fraud and roll back the damage.

(Why The Election Of Obama Would Mean The End Of America)
The articl;e was way to many wors fpr what is really a simple answer.

America will end when the voters finally elect to Office someone that is NOT an American and that would happen if they elect Obama. And I do not mean anything about where he was born...

I hope you get the chance to grab the reins of power again. We have lefties to be sure, but this Obama is far more dangerous, imho.

Just his middle name should have sunk him, no questions asked. It is surreal. When he won the nomination I said, “There is no way on God’s green earth the Americans will elect someone named Barack HUSSEIN Obama in the midst of a war on terror.”

I pray for eyes to be opened en masse on November 4th.

You are counting on an intelligent population. They’re getting dumber by the minute, I’m afraid.

Correct. I work with a 28 year old. I was trying to explain the dangers of Obama insofar as he is a socialist. He innocently asked me, "What's bad about socialism?" I said, "In classic Marxist theory, socialism is the stepping stone to communism." Here was his reply (are you sitting down?): "Communism. That's when the corporations control everything, right?"

The demographics of this country are rapidly changing. By 2023, half of the children 18 and under will be minorities [as defined by the USG] and by 2042 half of the country will be minorities. This is without an amnesty. If the status of the 12 to 20 million illegal aliens is legalized, this will allow them to in turn sponsor another 66 million to 100 million LEGAL immigrants thru chain migration, i.e., family reunification. The country is finished.

After I picked my jaw off the ground, I described a commune (something more easily understood) as an example. Then, I described communism as the abolition of private property and the primacy of the state. I stated that the USA was based on the principle of limited government, which is contrary to communism. Then I went off on a long litany of the bloody history of communist regimes. The next day, I read him some information about socialism, including some chilling quotations from Lenin about crushing the opposition and taking away their rights. I doubt very much that I got through to him. You cannot undo years of brainwashing in a couple days.

I pray for a last minute opening of people’s eyes - like blinders being suddenly lifted as they go to vote.

Keep praying that. I heard an anectdote on Laura Ingraham's show (Tammy Bruce subbing) telling of just that happening with a devout 0bama supporter.

I'd be lying if I thought someone with Obama's background and Marxist views would have a chance at getting elected. His huge break came last month when the financial system collapsed and the Dems managed to blame it all on Republicans and lack of regulation. They were right about the regulation, but wrong about the specifics. It was the Dem-managed FMs and their refusal to have them regulated that caused the whole thing.

But the Pubbies, especially McCain, put up a weak denial and even blamed "greedy" bankers themselves. That more than anything in my opinion is why McCain is currently behind after being ahead before the market crash. That's what makes the whole situation so revolting: the Dems caused the financial crisis and will get elected because they were unfairly able to blame the Pubbies for it.

You are correct - it’s almost like they brought that on intentionally. They couldn’t have timed it better.

The lack of proper direction of blame was quite startling. Sure wish goptrust.com would run some ads regarding that!

“...roll back the damage.”

You mean like we’ve rolled by all of the other damage the left has done to us?:

Social security
Medi-care
Welfare State
Intense regulation
etc.,etc.,etc.

I’m amazed at how many Republicans don’t get it.

Folks, once it is there you have a much bigger problem than a simple “roll back”.

AAARRRRGH!

Once it is in place you first have to peal-off on the greedy little mouths that have latched-on to that new gov’t teet.

Then, if you survive the oh-so public political flogging for being a cruel, fat-cat, white-male, un-feeling Republican, you can attempt legal or legislative remedies. THIS IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO DO!!!!!!!!!

If you give them power they will rip it from your hand and BEAT YOU SENSELESS WITH IT.

WAKE UP, REPUBLICANS!

There is no coming back from this!

Use your heads, for Christ’s sake.

“They were right about the regulation.”

They were NOT right about the regulation!

F&F had the oversight of over 200 PEOPLE!

The parasitical Democrats were warned many times, and in no uncertain terms, about the imminent failure.

It’s not the regulations! It’s the socialism, period!

You can blame mercantilism, sure. But the CAPITALIST system would never have gone down the leftist road of “sub-prime” lending without the obvious bullsh*t guarantees by the lying socialist, scumbag Democrats.

You totally misunderstood my post. It wasn’t the lack of regulation in the banking industry, I meant the lack of regulation of the FMs that led to the disaster.

I still don’t agree.

....care to elaborate?
