All I know is, Barack Hussein Obama is definitely not going to try to get a third term.

Don't you think that if he were going to establish himself as a dictator, last October would have been the time to do it?

Not really. It takes more than 4 years to destroy a free nation, as we're not going to just sit here and watch. This next four years is when the real slide begins. Will we still be America in 2016, or will we look more like Hussein's version of Cuba?
 

Will Congress stand up for itself? If not, then 2014 is right around the corner, and voters who care should fire representatives who are spineless.

I'm inclined to agree with the pundit who observed: "America can survive the Obama presidency. I am not so sure America can survive an electorate that gives him a second term."

It's all part of the great cycle: Slavery -> Independence -> Prosperity -> Complacency -> Dependency -> Slavery.
 


Uhhhhh..... what'd ya say?

(CNN) -- U.S. President Barack Obama said Saturday that the United States "should take military action against Syrian targets" over its alleged use of chemical weapons, but added that he will seek congressional authorization for the move.

You got me. I think I was just upset. Are you having a good holiday weekend?
 
the govt. of the USA no longer governs by the consent of the governed...what is happening now is the displacement of a constitutional order by a regime that does not have, will not obtain, and cannot command the consent of the people.
