"There's nothing new under the sun." The Liberal sycophants in our MSM-driven culture have been around a hell of a lot longer than Obama -- they were around when Clinton "won" with a "popular mandate" of 43%, and in fact they were MORE powerful then for the lack of more open and alternative media we have now. And Clinton was MORE POPULAR then than Obama is now.
Just the same, because enough people (I was NOT one of them) had the courage to reject liberal Republican HW, hold fast to their convictions, and take a chance on Perot in a year when the Democrat candidate was weak and unknown, Clinton's lack of mandate resulted in the Republican Revolution two years later. I'm sure you would have though any hope of such as "silly" then as you do now.
Human nature is human nature. KCon, FEAR and faint-heartedness are the only things that validate Obama's ability to play Dictator. It's as old as the mountains.
If Obama was as all-powerful as you say, why are we even having elections in 2012? How is it we are here on FR debating?
Could it be because your fear is exaggerated?
The knock-on effect of refusing Mitt a vote certainly can be debated about. Strategic withdrawals can very well result in better wins in the future.
What’s surprising to me, politically speaking, is that there is NOT a Perot figure looming on the horizon to deal the worst candidate a sub mandate win (not that Obama would care, but still). Goode is maybe the closest to a national figure — and he’d formerly been not GOP but Democrat. It seems a bit odd that he has ended up where he is now. Anyhow, he hasn’t anywhere close to a Perotish public stature.
Fear is kind of a strong word. I have no personal fear, although it appears that I have many other FReepers here who appear to hate me for my opinions.
It comes with the turf I guess.
I fear for our Nation. I will not be alive long enough to suffer the inevitable consequences if Obama and his Sycophants are allowed to continue their rule, but I guess that fear could be exaggerated. I'll give that some thought.
