What Happens If Obama Wins?

This is a direct question to my Libertarian leaning friends who claim to have a love of liberty so deep that they would rather watch it bleed out on the street than vote for Mitt Romney.  I get it.   I was never a huge Romney guy.  I was no fan of John McCain either but I understood he risk that Obama represented to liberty.  Not enough of us did and Obama was elected.

So here we are again, almost four years into the worst presidency ever, a world in chaos, economic, political, and that same guy wants four more years.   Is it really worth the risk?

And just to be clear, I do not care about your Gary Johnson or Ron Paul write-in fantasies.  We are way, way past that.  This is the real world. This is about putting Liberty on life support.  About keeping it breathing.   To stop the bleeding before there is nothign left to save.   And color it any way you want but voting for anyone but Romney (at this point) is a vote for Obama.  I don’t like it, but that’s how it is.  And while you are free to vote for whomever you like regardless, no matter what the risk, I want you to honestly answer this question first, before you go to the polls in November and risk it.

What Happens if Obama Wins?

(And for those intent on going off on some libertarian anti-Romney rant…The almighty says don’t change the subject just answer the F…ing Question.)

November is coming….

…and you don’t need to tell that to the people in Centreville, Virginia. Obama visited them on Saturday, July 14, 2012. Here’s what he saw….

My Guess Was Romney With Around 340 Electoral Votes

Two Professors from the University of Colorado have a model for determining who will win the White House.  They’ve been right every year since 1980.  In 2012 they predict that Mitt Romney will win 320 Electoral votes to Barack Obama’s 218. Romney, it concluded, will win every state currently considered by pollsters to be a … Read more

This lady is p*ssed off!

And I don’t blame her. Does the mainstream media suck? You betcha!

You Are Racist Just For Running

Mitt Romney - Candidate for President - but is he a racist for running
Mitt Romney - How Dare You Run Against This President

This is not an earth shattering observation but seeing as I was just making this point last weekend I figured I should post it.  What did I say?

That it was only a matter of time before the media started trying to explain how “just running” against this incumbent president (Mr. Obama) is racist.

To Quote Elrond from the Lord of the Rings…’It has begun.’

At The Chris Matthews Hour of Hate the Left has laid the foundation for this argument with the notion that simply running against a sitting President (like say, Obama) shows disdain and arrogance.  Honestly, what was Mitt Romney thinking?

This is the first step toward the broader narrative.

The Gay Marriage Report Card

“I think that gay marriage should be between a man and a woman.” —Arnold Schwarzenegger

Roughly Sixty days out from national elections means people are beginning to take notice of what the politicians are saying about a whole host of issues fiscal and social. Chief among issues is the hot button of gay marriage.  Presently, if one is conservative and even mentions it, labels of bigotry and homophobia fly left and right.  So why the gay marriage report card? Simply because it is a political issue and like any other political issue, where rivers of cash and political capital flow, the net result of activism should have some standard of measure.

Thirteen states have legislatively accommodated same sex couples, thus, the notion (or suggestion) might follow for some that the Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Transsexual  (LGBT) community is a sizable constituency and the concepts, attitudes and conventions of Gay Marriage are catching on. But are they really gaining steam? Are more people really accepting Gay marriage on par with traditional marriage? Or are they being bullied into it?

Conservatives for Obama? No, really….

I mean, I can at least see why maybe some conservatives may decide to vote for Gary Johnson, the national Libertarian Party’s Presidential candidate this year…. But then there’s Marty Begin, a   Nevada voter and “self-described conservative” quoted in today’s Wall Street Journal article about Mitt Romney. And…this guy says he’s going to vote for Obama. A “conservative”? Voting for Obama? I mean, helloooo…

Following the Trail from Sustainability…to Tyranny (Part 2)

Sustainability Ferris Wheel

This is part-2 of a series that breaks down the “sustainability” movement, and explains how some in NH are working to constrain individual liberties with it.  Read part-1 here.

The consummate community organizer, President Obama, knows the value of urban voters.  He knows that urban living, with its clustered, infrastructure-heavy, and herd-like nature, depends on government more than suburban life, and far more than self-sufficient, independent rural living.  He knows that more urban (or urban-like) voters mean utter dominance of the Progressive political class, at all levels.

He also knows that people have flocked away from cities, especially since the 1970’s, forming concentric suburban rings, referred to as “sprawl” (a word you will hear used quite a bit), which provide resistance to his urban, democratic-socialist ideals.

“The suburbs will define the outcome of the 2012 Presidential election”

Continuing to use the environmental movement as cover, and using the Presidency for credibility and funding, Barack Obama and his fellow community organizers are advancing the simmering ideology of “sustainability” by attacking the suburbs.

Romney Picks Ryan for VP (Updated)

This morning Mitt Romney announced that Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan is his pick for VP.

I’d call this a great choice.  Given that we very likley have over 200 Trillion in unfunded entitlements to deal with, and Ryan being the only guy with a well developed plan–not for cutting or gutting but for dealing with the promises we’ve made and working toward a long term resolution–choosing Ryan says that Romney is serious about dealing with entitlement spending.

And while no plan is perfect, at least there is a Ryan Plan.

Priorities

How do you show your empathy for the people living under your yoke?  Get rich bastards™ (Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour) and clueless celebrities–rich bastards™ (Sarah Jessica Parker)–to pimp your ‘Middle Class street cred’ while you run off to six fundraisers on the day the crappy job numbers come out. Isn’t Obama’s Super PAC called Priorities … Read more

Grokipedia – Forward (generic name of socialist publications)

Forward (generic name of socialist publications)

(The Wikipedia entry ‘Forward’ has been saved from deletion.  Wikipedia may have censored it, but “Grokipedia” will not.  While we have restored all the original links–mostly to other Wikipedia pages–we cannot promise that Wikipedia will not also delete these pages in their mad-dash to protect and defend the current Democrat administration’s Presidential campaign. )

Vorwaerts! Meaning Forward - German Socialsit Publication<—First issue of Vorwärts, October 1, 1876

In the English translation, the term Forward has historically been used in the titles of socialist and politically left-leaning periodical publications primarily in Europe.[1][2] The context of the title connoted an “urge for progress”.[3]

Vorwärts! (German for ‘Forward’, with an exclamation point as part of the name) was a revolutionary German emigré publication issued in Paris in the mid-1840s. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels were amongst the contributors to the magazine. Whilst the publication was short-lived, it had a lasting impact and served as an inspiration for later socialist press outlets. A second Vorwärts (without exclamation point) was founded in 1876, being an organ of the Social Democratic Party of Germany and with Wilhelm Liebknecht as its first editor.[4] In the years before the First World War, the term ‘vorwärts’ was almost monopolized in German political discourse by the Social Democrats, and the name was used for various publications and organizations.[5]

Will Debbie Washerwoman Schultz Lose Her Re-Election?

Debbie Wasseman Schultz (DWS) is very busy being one of the worst DNC chairs ever.  (Not as easy as it may sound).  And we think that’s great.  In fact, we would like to help ensure that she has more time to pursue the disaster that is DNC chair DWS,  so please take a moment to … Read more

Long read regarding socialist statism and voting Democrat….

Kiddy Socialism: Obama Redistributes LegosI regularly get into political scrums with leftists in various venues.

What follows is one where I got set off enough to pen a major lecture to a local socialist (I’ll call him “Chuck”). He was going on about what a successful President Barack Obama is, and how he truly deserves to be re-elected, and how all the “minorities” and “groups” targeted by Obama will vote for him.

So it began like this. I told him….

Obama, Birth of Hope (Ack!)

I was in the midst of a two year run with New Hampshire Taxpayer Radio when Obama and the Democrats were elected so I have file folders full of weekly show notes (not unlike Rush Limbaugh’s daily ‘stack of stuff’).  There is a good deal of material there and I don’t venture into the printed pile often, but I had to find something (which I did) but not before stumbling across this glorious discovery (on the jump).

It is from an October 2010 edition of The Weekly Standard’s parody page, only this was not a parody.  It was an example of just how badly a majority of American’s had been fooled by the Great Deceiver–Barack Obama–and how obnoxious the cult of personality had become; a sin they would punish his party for (at least a little bit), a few weeks after this issue was printed, in the November 2010 blow out.
