Default Kiss The Democrat Party Goodbye Under President Obama

http://www.newmediajournal.us/staff/...8/07182008.htm
Quote:
The Presidency of President Barack Hussein Obama will be Conservatives' worst nightmare come true, on steroids, as President Obama steers the ship of state hard to port, all engines ahead full. And port is to the left of starboard, for you folk in Rio Linda.

Under President Obama, a Democrat Congress will raise taxes, increase spending, increase regulation, abandon Iraq, while also winning the war against Al Qaeda and the Taliban wherever they may be, except in Iraq. It will refuse to drill for oil or build nukes, while pumping billions of your tax dollars into dead-end dreams of energy independence via biofuel. The most efficient biofuel source on the horizon is fuel from Algae, which one development company states can produce up to 20,000 gallons per acre per year. If this is true, it will take 78 square miles to produce enough Algae fuel for one day, 28,515 square miles of Algae factories to replace all of our petroleum fuels for a year. That's an Algae factory about 100 by 300 miles, roughly the size of California's central valley from Redding to Bakersfield. Switchgrass would require 37 times as much land, a switchgrass farm 861 miles square, bigger than California, Nevada, and Arizona, combined.

Drilling our own isn't just about the price of gas. The leading Democrats either fail to comprehend this, or are stuck in a pathological denial of reality. Stuck on stupid, or stuck on fantasy. We're spending some $700 billion a year to buy foreign oil, and that is most of our trade deficit. That great sucking sound you here is American dollars and jobs going down the drain to OPEC, so the sheikhs can have palaces the size of football stadiums, add to their Rolls-Royce collections, and fly in private 747s. So Iran can build atomic bombs and finish the Holocaust Hitler began. If that $700 billion were invested in energy production here in America, it would create 14 million jobs in America for American workers, at an average pay of $50,000 a year. That would reduce the unemployment rate to zero. Yet Democrats keeping chanting, "We can't drill our way out of this."

The truth is, we can only drill our way out of this.

I expect President Obama with a Democrat Congress will enact comprehensive immigration reform that will create an open border between the US and Mexico, and give blanket amnesty to all or most of the illegal immigrants now in America. If Barack Obama is elected with large majorities in the House and Senate, I expect we will see the Democrat Congress pass the "Freedom of Choice and Marriage Amendment," making the rights to abortion and same-sex marriage explicitly protected by the United States Constitution.

President Obama could appoint General Wesley Clark as Secretary of Defense, Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State, Bill Clinton as Ambassador to the United Nations, and Reverend Jeremiah Wright as the National Chaplain. His cabinet will be a Who's Who of Liberal Democrats. He will appoint scores of Federal judges, and at least one or two Supreme Court Justices. They will not be conservatives.

An Obama Presidency will mark the end of everything Conservatives have hoped for, fought for, dreamed of, and after four years, it will impossible to fix the irreparable harm that will have been done. Under Obama, America will spend the next four years headed hell bent for leather in the wrong direction.

Yet, almost daily, I get mail from some Conservatives who "Can't support John McCain," because, in a nutshell, he isn't Ronald Reagan. He isn't ideologically pure enough on this issue, or that. Well, folks, Ronald Reagan isn't running this year. Ron Paul and Bob Barr haven't got a snowball's ghost of a chance of getting elected, and a vote for either is a vote for Obama. Like it or not, John McCain, for all his faults, whatever they are, is the only lifeboat you've got. It's either President John McCain, or President Barack Hussein Obama.

But, there is hope.

If Barack Obama doesn't win November's presidential election in the United States, "You can kiss the Democratic party goodbye," said actor and director Robert Redford in a speech at Dublin's Trinity College, reported in The Irish Times, on July 11.

Redford elaborated, he hoped Obama would win because while John McCain represents "yesterday," Obama embodied the change America needs. "I think Obama is not tall on experience...but I believe he's a really good person. He's smart. And he does represent what the country needs most now, which is change. I hope he'll win. I think he will. If he doesn't, you can kiss the Democratic party goodbye. I think we need new voices, new blood. We need to get a whole group out, get a new group in."

I don't know why Redford would have said this, unless he were worried about Obama losing, and the Democrat party tearing itself to pieces. Maybe that is why so many leading Democrats have pre-emptively announced they will not be Obama's vice president. Maybe they know something we don't. Maybe they don't want to be part of a losing election, or part of a botched presidency. They want to be left standing after all the heads roll. I hope Redford is right. Indeed, I have the audacity to hope that if Obama loses, the Democrat party will implode, or explode, in a maelstrom of anger and bitter recrimination, and we really can kiss it goodbye. If that happens, half the party will forever believe that Obama's primary defeat of Hillary doomed the party to defeat in November, and Democrats will have wasted half a billion dollars and shiploads of euphoria on the Clinton and Obama campaigns. Now, that's change we can believe in.

"Obama is not tall on experience," said Robert Redford, "but I believe he's a really good person."

Well, the pilot of this 747 isn't tall on experience. Actually, he just started flight school. But I believe he's a really good person. Oh, and my neurosurgeon isn't tall on experience, either, but she's smart, planning to go to medical school after college. I believe she's a really good person. And I wonder, would Robert Redford hire a director for one of his movies, who wasn't tall on experience, but, he believed, was a really good person?

A few days ago I got a letter from a retired couple in Pennsylvania, telling me that their annual income is $35,000, and this winter they expect to pay $9,000 for heating oil to keep from freezing.

By September, October, millions of Americans will be staring at $5 heating oil, and $5 gasoline, and looking at the presidential candidates and their parties, with McCain declaring, "Drill here, drill now," and Obama shackled to the rabid Environmentalists who refuse to. In the lead story on July 15, the Sacramento Bee began: Drilling Plan Hits Sea of Opposition: State Leaders Blast Bush Bid As a Threat to the Coast. "Fearing environmental damage to the state's coastline, California's top leaders made it clear Monday that they want nothing to do with President Bush's plan to lift the moratorium on offshore drilling."

"Failure to act is unacceptable," Bush said.

"Once again, the oilman in the White House is echoing the demands of Big Oil," said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of San Francisco, "The Bush plan is a hoax. It will neither reduce prices nor increase energy independence . . ." continued Democrat Nancy Pelosi, whose party has no plan to reduce prices or increase energy independence, two years after it took over Congress with promises to have a national energy policy in 100 days. The party that accused Bush of having "no plan for Iraq" for the last six years has no plan for oil or energy now. The Democrats have no plan.

I predict this will be the decisive issue in this election, because the price of oil is not just the price of gas and diesel and jet fuel. Our economy runs on oil, and the rising price of oil can run our economy into the ground. The price and supply of oil is trade deficits, a declining dollar, millions of lost jobs, and strategic vulnerability to the whims of Jihadistanis who can turn off the taps, blow up some pipes and pumping stations, or block the Straights of Hormuz to crash the Western economies. While drilling of the Coasts and in ANWR will take several years to produce the first flow of new oil, in the meantime it's a light at the end of the tunnel. It's the first step on the journey to energy independence. And the Democrats have closed ranks against it.

The Democrats have painted themselves into a corner. Either because they believe their own lunacy, or because they are shackled to the Environmentalists' money and votes, or both. They know that if they endorse drilling for oil and building nuclear power plants, they'll lose millions of Green dollars, and millions of Green voters will defect to the Green Party candidate for president, former Representative Cynthia McKinney (D-GA), who wants to pull the troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan yesterday, and create a new Federal Department of Peace.

Let's make 'em pay for it.

But to do that, Conservatives, Moderate Republicans, Conservative Independents, and Reagan Democrats, have to bury the hatchets and close ranks around John McCain, with generous campaign contributions and 100% turnout in November, no protest votes, no staying home and sitting on our hands, hoping audaciously that President Barack Hussein Obama won't be the catastrophic national disaster I think he will be.

Let's make Robert Redford's prophecy come true. Elect President John McCain.

And kiss the Democrat party goodbye.
I hope this is true. Many Democrats don't even support obama. he is pandering to 15% of the US Population. If you read Newt Gingrich's book, "Real Change," he lays this out perfectly.

I'm sort of surprised the Republican Party didn't split as a result of Bush '43. I'm not sure this is true after Bush.

if mccain wins, it ensures that the american core values have swung to the right and that the leftists are not important anymore. most americans are moderate and become conservative as they grow older. who wants high taxes? lets be honest.....

I think the first three words are all I needed to read, lol. I'm pretty sure he won't win, although Obama is losing ground. We will have to see. Although its not that Americans are becoming more conservative. Neo-conservatives are not conservative. They got fed up with the democratic party and set up camp with the Republicans, then got the whole Republican party to follow their lead somehow. Real conservatives are fiscally conservative, and include military spending when trying to balance the budget.

If McCain wins, it ensures that the American core values are not anywhere related to what this country originally stood for. It also ensures that many Americans have no idea of the political history of Democrats and Republicans, and what the parties are suppose to stand for.

Nothing constitutes an argument quite as well as a personal attack!

Good Job!

Pointing out a fact is an attack?
