America is on the edge of a second revolutionary war.
It may not be bloody like the first one, but it will be hugely important.
Some might suggest its more a civil war, but with liberty and the constitution hanging in the balance, revolution seems a more appropriate comparison.
There are no British troops or monarchy to fight this time.
The shot heard around the world wasnt fired from a musket, it came from the ballot box.
Americans have taken a long hard look at the kind of fundamental transformation promised by Barack Obama and the Democrat party and they want nothing to do with it.
The Republican victory suggests Americans are more than just unhappy with the direction the country is headed.
Such was the devastating scope of the electoral debacle for the Democrats that it appears Americans are mobilizing for war against the Obama agenda.
They are only now truly beginning to understand the threat to liberty he presents.
Whats so deeply troubling, albeit not entirely unexpected, is the disdain, arrogance and contempt with which this president dismissed the results.
So to everyone who voted, I want you to know I hear you. To the two-thirds of voters who chose not to participate in the process yesterday, I hear you, too, he said.
Meaning what?
He seems to be suggesting that by not voting, the majority of Americans agree with what hes doing.
Terrifying? You bet.
Its taken six years, but the ugly truth about Obamas contemptuous attitudes toward the people who elected him twice is becoming all too evident.
Lame duck? Guess again.
The man probably realizes that a chance to remake the U.S. according to his far left view of the world may not come around again.
His time is running out. Obamas nuclear option is amnesty for millions of illegals.
He expects those illegals will become dependents of the state, thus stacking the electoral deck in favour of Democrats by promising the new wards of the state a suite of entitlements.
The depth of this destructive agenda is clear, rip off trillions in wealth (which Obama believes was stolen anyway) and give it to those whom he considers victims of capitalism.
The beneficiaries will naturally reward the progressive left with voter support into perpetuity. Viola, the progressive dream of a one-party state is realized.
This has been decades in the making. The left has infiltrated, corrupted, and subverted the institutions that had, up to now, served as pillars supporting freedom, democracy, and prosperity.
The bulk of what was once a free and independent media has been reduced to little more than an arm of the Democrats.
That tens of millions of Americans are flocking to Fox News, Conservative talk radio and online news sites is heartening but doesnt change the fact most TV, print media outlets are in an advanced state of putrid, cancerous liberal rot.
The same cancer has undermined the school system, big labour,' the environmental movement, and the Hollywood culture machine.
Even capitalism itself has succumbed to the lure of easy government money, power and cronyism.
So who is left to fight for freedom? The rest of America.
Obama will attempt to ram through amnesty, climate change, wealth redistribution and he will ignore the constitution to do it.
Republicans have assured Obama impeachment is off the table. And so the battle lines are drawn.
Fasten your seatbelts Canada, were about to get a front-row seat to the battle for the soul of America and indeed the free world.
Lets hope that, as in the first revolutionary war, that the right side wins.
If it doesnt, we all lose.
“What...is the end game for Republicans? Seriously. Demise?”
Probably, Obama was right about “the two thirds” who did not vote. If they should ever decide to get of the couch and vote conservatives will never win another election. Don’t know that there is a end-game persea. However, my crystal ball foresees the gradual Balkanization of America. I don’t foresee a Civil War nor the break up of the country. But, I think there will be a gradual migration of people towards regions more compatible with their cultural, religious, and political values. And, there will be more autonomy within these respective regions. In fact, appears to me that this shift is well underway.
Viola? Viola Law. She's Marshall's wife.
Americans have taken a long hard look at the kind of fundamental transformation promised by Barack Obama and the Democrat party and they want nothing to do with it.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Elections have consequences.
[ LIKE :-) ]
WOW!
What a tough guy.
Instead of a Blitzkreig, Boner and Mitchy are leading a Sitzkreig.
What the heck? Don’t force those morons into Canada, we have enough, we’re trying to correct that ship.
Well said. 74 and still working. Will have to work till I they pry that screwdriver out of my cold, stiff hand.
I have had it with these self centered punks.
Thanks for the post!

Meaning we have a regular half-wit in the WH who needs a sphincter on his mouth-because he is so clueless.
Over my dead body is all I have to say.
Why is it that so many members of the Canadian (and British) press have a better understanding of what this country’s *really* about than does our own press? Maybe it’s because they know that they’re beyond the reach of the Department of Just Us,the IRS and David Axelrod.
Obama named himself Lincoln for a reason. He’s built up homeland insecurity goons for a reason and corrupted the FBI. He’s armed radicals in every lefty agency. He’s stirring up Nationwide “progressive” violence in the voice of a race war.
Yeah, war is possible.
We should be concerned whether Republican Majority is real...as Obama alluded.
Can Republicans keep majorities in both Houses of Congress during Presidential Election years, and can Republicans win the White House?
I CONTEND that if they fail to turn back Amnesty, in all forms, to include the form the Republicans envision, they'll never have the White House again and never another Congressional Majority.
Certainly a third party would emerge, and potentially win.
Think UKIP.
Lame Duck...?
No...Lame Leftist!
My apologies, Tupelo. That was a bit over the top.
I guess I’m just so angry about the events of our times that I’m losing my patience and composure. Even with friends and allies.
I’m sorry.
I ask you this: Would you back a revolution (as described in the article) if it meant losing SS? I say most people especially seniors would not so therefore there will be no revolution. Too many people in this country rely on a check from the government to ever support a change that involves eliminating that check. Without eliminating those checks we will continue with our socialist democracy.
The context of these posts is the article’s suggestion of a revolution.
Classify me as at the tail end of the baby boom.
Anyone who depends on a check from the government, no matter how well deserved, earned, or needed is dependent on the government. If your sole source of income is from a government check then you are solely reliant on the government for your welfare.
If you are reliant upon the government for your income how likely are you to support any movement towards restricting that government to its lawful activities under the US Constitution?
Are we going to have a revolution that makes sure all deserving people keep their checks? What government benefit are you willing to give up to take back our country?
Several of those patriots in my family. They didn’t die to preserve my SS benefit. I would not hesitate to forgo it if it meant supporting what they died for. I despise all of the welfare schemes that have enfeebled our ability to live our lives free from government “assistance”.
