Seriously. What's the plan for after an Obama victory in November?
And what if Biden stops acting like a dufus? Some things are a sure bet.

They'll continue what they've been doing for the last 4 years, trolling.

You will see the States get more active in protecting states rights. That will be a good thing.

I am to the point of not really giving a crap what happens to this country as long as they are not smart enough to vote for someone other than statists for office.
So you think McCain/Palin would have done a better job?

An Obama victory places the US $24 trillion in debt at the end of his second term. At that point, SEVERE austerity measures would be required to avoid eventual insolvency.

I would offer that EVERYONE, in the event of an Obama victory, have a few things for the future-

1. at least ten acres of land on which one could raise vegetables

2. at least 5% of investments in gold

3. a years supply of food and six months of water

4. a few weapons and plenty of ammunition


With continued reckless fiscal policy, we are headed for a course far more rocky than that of Greece.

People should realize that the bulk of politics is entertainment- theater ...drama..................give me a damned break...When you have the lead actor go into his best Hamlet pose ....and declare..."If I had a SON...he would have looked like Martin"....


Us-------------------------against -------------------------------them....you would have figured that people would understand by now that this type of government after a thousand years is designed to jerk your chain..like a dumb dog..being led to the back yard to crap.


I suppose it is just plain fun.........but useless and ineffective...nothing wrong with a benevolent dictatorship...but where are you going to find a strong man or woman these days? I don't think they make them anymore.

The subject of this thread isn't what a nation with a second term Obama might look like. That's just speculation anyhow.

What I'm interested in hearing about is far more personal. What will those who so vehemently oppose him now DO during his second term?

The handwriting on the wall is plain to see and discern; If Obama wins; then you are going to see the real hitler wannabe!! REBELLION & REVOLT & bloodshed!!
THEY don't seem to understand that once the rich are no longer rich or are gone the middle class will have to pay all the taxes so the lower classes who pay none now can continue to draw down on the treasury. It bothers me that so many people think that the old saw about people finding out that they can vote new goodies for themselves will certainly do so. What in hell do we do when nobody is paying for it all?

If a person has no real power...hanging the title of President on them will not give them power.
I guess you haven't heard of how he legislates through Executive Order and nobody does anything to stop him. He even went so far as to sign HR 347 which gives the prostitute loving Secret Service the power to declare certain areas as non-free speech zones. Naw, he has no power but the Congress is working with him to increase his and destroy the Constitution.
