The October Surprise. We all know it's coming. In what shape, idea, form -- who's to say? Evil always surprises. Its goals are constant, the ultimate objective never changes, but inevitably it manifests itself as the savior of the day, the savior of man. The 2008 Democrat October Surprise that ushered in the first hardcore radical post-American president in American history was the "economic collapse." Oh yes, that was a beaut.
The time before that, the moochers and the looters tried to fake Bush documents -- except that the conservative blogosphere caught them red-handed, so they missed their mark.
But the party of haters, infiltrators, anti-capitalists, the party that is anti-freedom and anti-individual rights, is going to have to pull off something really catastrophic to stay in power this November. And they will, because it is abundantly clear now that they despise the premise of America and they mean to replace it with statism, the source of untold, incomprehensible human misery for centuries.
Ayn Rand wrote of statism that
a statist system -- whether of a communist, fascist, Nazi, socialist or 'welfare' type -- is based on the ... government's unlimited power, which means: on the rule of brute force. ... Under statism, the government is not a policeman, but a legalized criminal that holds the power to use physical force in any manner and for any purpose it pleases against legally disarmed, defenseless victims.
With chilling prescience, Rand said, "The basic principle and the ultimate results of all statist doctrines are the same: dictatorship and destruction. The rest is only a matter of time."
Only a matter of time.
We have a long and terrible fight in front of us. The fight is as big as the idea, the foundation, the being of this great nation, the fight for America. Yes, it's as big as all that, and the enemy is ruthless, unscrupulous, and evil -- and willing to do whatever it takes to assume absolute control. They build nothing, produce nothing, create nothing, invent nothing. They steal. They demand. They demoralize. They are destroyers.
What will October's Surprise be? Political analyst Jack Wheeler has an idea. "A Second Great Depression," he says, "is the Democrat Party's path to power":
Our country is faced with an impending economic catastrophe, a Second Great Depression. It is being brought about on purpose by a political party that cares only for keeping and expanding its power, and looks upon prosperity as a threat to that power.
You think the Democrats aren't really that bad? Think again. Wheeler points out that they're "now being threatened with being thrown out of power." And what did they do when faced with a loss of power the last time? "If that party is evil enough and fascist enough to cause an economic catastrophe," Wheeler says, "it is certainly evil and fascist enough to cause a physical catastrophe, an Ultimate October Surprise, that will frighten and enrage voters enough to preserve its power in November."
Wheeler speculates that this could take the form of "another 9/11, a massively horrific terrorist attack, perhaps even nuclear." Or it could involve Obama's obvious and gross mishandling of the Gulf oil crisis, the full extent of which is (of course) being covered up in the lapdog media. And whom would the Democrats blame for whatever crisis they trump up? Whom else? The attack will be used, Wheeler suggests, "to raise suspicion about the dangerous Tea Party people and anyone who is 'anti-government,' enough for people to rally around their Zero-led government in fear and confusion." And it will ultimately provide "further rationales for emergency government powers."
Could this really happen? Well, we know there have been October Surprises in the past, and each election ups the ante. We have to make sure this doesn't happen. We are Americans. We are free people. We must resist. As one reader of my website, AtlasShrugs.com, wrote to me, "the political tools of truth, exposure, ridicule, disparagement, impeachment, criminal prosecution, and politically-incorrect anger must be added to our arsenal of peaceful weapons against tyranny. ... We must make history by living our freedom, or surely we will die."
And we have seen the Democratic Party decimate our health care system, banking industry, and automobile sector, and introduce sharia (Islamic) finance into the public sector. They are capable of anything.
Yes. And there is some comfort to be found in the fact that decent, rational men, statesmen, exist and speak the truth. They represent our last hope, a vestige of reason and sanity in this era of the modern barbarian. These are the men who need to take the reins of their respective nations. Bolton 2012: The stakes couldn't be higher.
ur uncle still alive?
No...16 yrs ago....Docs at that time asked how he carried what they saw in his body after his death tho....shrapnel they claimed...
I believe it'll be a series of terror attacks that happen to "slip through," sometime around 25 October. What better way for 0bama to achieve two objectives: 1. Get his poll numbers to skyrocket (as the nation reflexively rallies around its president in a time of grave crisis); 2. Declare a form of martial law that will indefinitely postpone the elections on 2 November that will not be lifted "until DHS certifies the level of safety necessary to give the all-clear." The nature of the terror attacks will be deemed too severe a threat to the well-being of large numbers of people gathered in one place, i.e., voting polls nationwide.
No it’s not.
The majority of Americans are awake. We all need to be educated and informed. So the best thing, each one of us (who are informed) can do, is to spread the word to everyone we know.
I guess I’m an optimistic.
My guess at an October Surprise:
1. Israel eliminates Nuke Threat from Iran and Obama takes credit (or, more likely, Biden takes credit for him).
combined with:
2. IF the House appears lost, AND ONLY IF SO, and Nancy Pelosi knows that there is no way to retain her Speakership, then they might shake things up. I can see Pelosi stepping down “for health reasons”. She won’t turn over the Speakership to Steny Hoyer as they have basically a blood feud, and the next in line, Barney Frank, is just as bad as Nancy Pelosi. . . . so
Pull the electoral race card:
Speaker John Conyers.
(Poss Rangel, but he has his own problems.)
The MSM will push that as yet another glorious HISTORIC event ushered in by a wonderful and forward thinking Administration and how important it is to continue this wonderful hope and change by coming out and voting in November.
The Washington Post recently ran an article that said half of Republican challengers are running against Nancy Pelosi as much or more than their local Critter. If you take her out of the picture, and replace it was MSM stupidbuzz, IF that effects 5-7 seats, could that be enough to save the House? I suspect that there are more than one Democrat out there that would LOVE to run on NOT having to vote for Nancy in January as Speaker.
These two events, in tandem, will change the MSM conversation down the stretch. It doesn’t have to make a fundamental difference. If if only means the difference between 45 seats and 37 seats changing hands, that would be enough.
I’m hoping for a much bigger change come November, but the LARGER that potential change actually is down the stretch, the less democrats generally and Pelosi personally has to lose by such a strategy.
Of course, this problem could easily be resolved by dragging the userpers into the streets and beating them like Harp Seals.
“IMHO he will find reason for postponement of the Nov midterm election - go ahead call me a conspiracy nutcase.”
Current odds for that at the Harry Reid Mafia Casino are 4 to 1 against. But before your post they were 25-1. What do you know and when did you know it?
“Wheeler speculates that this could take the form of “another 9/11, a massively horrific terrorist attack, perhaps even nuclear.”
Makes one wonder if the first 9-11 wasn’t a *surprise* by Progressives in the FedGov. (on both sides of the aisle)
Mark Kirk - I'd feel like I'm sacrificing one of my children for all the other if I supported that mega RINO, abortion-, homo-"marriage"-loving socialist. Maybe that's the price to be paid for a Senate majority.
I try to remain optimistic, but the way I see things, the biggest problem we have in this country is not politcal, as much as it’s spiritual. Until vast numbers, turn back to our Creator, we won’t be completely liberated from this creeping tyranny. We may be able to slow it down for awhile, but for how long? What we really need is to put our faith in the one true Messiah, to build our house upon the Rock, not on sinking sand, and trust not in men, or political parties.
Words of wisdom.
He wasn't Coakley; that's why I gave to his campaign. I didn't expect a real conservative. Seeing the feminazi go down in flames in Mass. was well worth it.

One of the things I have learned is that under the WAR POWERS ACT of 1850 and the “Emergency Powers Act,” the U. S. Constitution is Suspended. It was suspended in 1850, and again in 1933; 1950; 1970; and 1971. See Senate Report 93-549. Michael Badnarik went on to say that as far as he knows (2005) that the U. S. Consitution is still suspended and these acts have not been repealed or rescinded. My stomach has been in knots ever since, but it does offer an explanation to me about the dastardly deeds in DC.
Now see this, commentary from YouTube and the Video:
Remember when Obama said he wanted a national security force? Not the national guard, but a civilian one that has NOT sworn to uphold the Constitution?
On July 2, 2008 in a speech in Colorado Springs, Barack Obama called for a police state.
Well, Obama just got his private army, and no one seems to have noticed.
It is buried in the Senate revisions to the health care bill. Subtitle CIncreasing the Supply of the Health Care Workforce Sec. 5201. Federally supported student loan funds. Sec. 5202.

How many of you were aware of the fact that the health care bill created another army? I wasn’t!
Obama’s Civilian Army is now LAW and is Funded (4 minutes and 39 seconds)

I wanna know who Dick Morris has working for him in Nevada. He’s shamelessly pushing Angle’s contributions website, on the web and on FNC. Who’s kicking back to Morris???
How’s that???
Well I agree with your edit, but what I meant to what you revised was the fact that Obama still has a VETO option to play...Thats what will keep a lot of corrective measures from being implemented while he is still in office...
BTTT
Unfortunately the Feds are already doing a long list of things for which they have no legitimate authority. They just do things anyway as long as the people don’t rise up and stop them.
