I too wish Obama a long and healthy life as an ex President.

As far as Sarah P, if the Democrats had any friggin&#039; brains (yeah, I know), they would be providing massive security details for her everywhere she goes. Right now she&#039;s a threat to the GOP, and they should realize that she has the potential to cause immense disarray within the DEM opposition, because she does. The bigwigs in the GOP are trying to figure out a way to neutralize her, but I don&#039;t think they&#039;ll have much success.

The other day she evidently said that she would support anyone, regardless of party affiliation, who advocated the correct policies. I haven&#039;t seen the quote myself, maybe that&#039;s wrong.

If it&#039;s right then that&#039;s as direct a challenge to the GOP establishment as she could make. That&#039;s why I think she&#039;s relevant and fascinating. She has the ability to throw a monkey wrench into a lot of plans, and it&#039;s going to be interesting to see what she does with that.</description>

&quot;If anything happens to her, then you know the future of the rest of the country. And personally, I would not put some sort of mischief beyond the current thugs in the WH.&quot;

Up to this point, one of my greatest fears has that someone will somehow manage to knock off Lord Zero before he finishes his first (and hopefully last) term.  Opportunistic bastards that leftists are (see Rahm&#039;s &quot;never waste a good crisis&quot; comments), it won&#039;t matter who did it - conservatives will be blamed.  With a totally in the tank liberal media promulgating that idea, we (conservatives) will be cooked, and The One will be presented as a martyr deserving of sainthood.

I believe that leftists are so intent on acquiring and maintaining power (and forcing their enemies - us - to live in subject to it) that they&#039;d even knock off Lord Zero if they saw it as a way to permanently destroy/discredit conservatives.

So, back to your comment - I believe it goes without saying that the vileness she&#039;s been subjected to since joining the McCain ticket has been (and continues to be) so over the top, that I can easily see some leftist nutjob getting all whipped up and taking it upon himself/herself to permanently remove this woman - she is, in their eyes, nothing more than a cancer.

Removing the cancer would be seen as a virtuous act - with all the wackjobs out there, it wouldn&#039;t require any current admin thugs.

{{sigh}}

While I despised a lot of what Clinton did while in office, I never hated the guy.  So far, I don&#039;t hate &quot;O&quot; either, but for the first time in my adult life, I&#039;m forced to consider the possibility that what we&#039;re seeing in government, &quot;O&quot; included, is outright evil, intending to reduce us to a status only slightly above that of cattle... and we&#039;ll be treated as such - bread, used, and culled as the elite sees fit.

God help us.

This is what we have seen so far, that both mechanisms are being put in place. Silence the critics with specious &quot;hate crime&quot; laws or misdirect with some other crisis. As in - &quot;Don&#039;t look at the HUGE tax bill we want to hand you for health care &#039;reform&#039; instead look at the &#039;wise Latina&#039; we put up for SCOTUS!&quot; [These are not the droids you want....]

See &lt;a href=&quot;http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:h645:&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;HR 645 - National Emergency Centers Establishment Act&lt;/a&gt; &amp; &lt;a href=&quot;http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:H.R.1966:&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;HR 1966 - Megan Meier Cyberbullying Prevention Act&lt;/a&gt;

As far as BHO going from &#039;The Won&#039; or &#039;The One We Have All Been Waiting For&#039; to just POTUS #44, I prefer &quot;The 0bamanation&quot; [read the zero-bamanation]. He is mortal, but don&#039;t tell him that/ He thinks he is destined for greatness but, you know, greatness has many forms from greatly revered to greatly despised.

Us boomers have made a huge mistake. We got what we asked for in &#039;The Sixties&#039;. The old saw of be careful what you ask for is true. We wanted these changes. We were SOOOOOOO wrong.</description>

Thanks for the link.  I don&#039;t see the parallels as exact.  I am speaking more of a totalitarian &lt;em&gt;seizure&lt;/em&gt; of power.  No matter which pew of the totalitarian church Buraq Hussein ends up sitting in, that should be the trigger point for resistance.

		<description>The greatest hope for the world that will come from the the present universal access to cameras and powerful media authoring software is not just the ability to capture events as they unfold.

It is the understanding by a world-wide generation of the ease with which an utterly false story can be manufactured to appear as truth, starting from actual true events.

My deepest hope is that kids who know how to put together the remarkably sophisticated stories we&#039;re seeing, will be be much less gullible and trusting of lying bastards.</description>

		<description>Roderick, indeed my personal response to the 2,000 dead Taliban is &quot;good riddance to bad rubbish&quot; and a hearty hand-clap for the Northern Alliance. 

But this kind of thing resonates tremendously with the harder-Left part of O&#039;s base. You know, those entirely ready to always and everywhere condemn the US as imperialistic killers. This is red meat for the hard core who will make &lt;i&gt; no mental distinction &lt;/i&gt; between Northern Alliance-Bush-Rethuglicans. These are the sort of folks who post laughable nonsense on blogs like &quot;the US is the biggest killer of all time.&quot; It&#039;s all the same continuum to them. With all O&#039;s backpedling on promises he made to his Red core, he needs to string up some Republican and/or Military heads.

After all, we know the military is a bunch of baby killing psychos. There have just been SO many cool movies about that.</description>

		<description>I have some comments on Andrew X&#039;s proposition that prosecution of the Bush administration will backfire. I believe that there is a strong probability of that, although I think that the flames of indignation have to be skillfully fanned by a prepared and coordinated opposition to those prosecutions.

The latest news (from the Washington Times) is that there may be investigations into the disappearance/deaths of some 2,000 Taliban prisoners, courtesy of the Northern Alliance.

How do you suppose many Americans would react to an attempt to make us/Bush look bad because of that, especially if the opposition media puts it in the perspective of 2001-2002? So 2,000 members of the movement that enabled the killing of 3,000 innocent Americans were wiped out? So friggin&#039; what? And it was Afghanis who did? So double-friggin&#039; what? This kind of deliberate flagellation of the American spirit after months of apology tours and stimulus packages that the American public never asked for, and deficits so huge even ordinary Americans are alarmed, and a Cap &amp; Trade monstrosity at a time when everybody and his grandmother has noticed an unusually mild summer after a winter where it snowed in Vegas and Baghdad, and you get the proverbial, &quot;straw, meet the camel&#039;s back.&quot;</description>

For the record, I have not read the piece by Whiskey; and indeed cannot now.  The link [once it is copied and pasted] goes to to blogspot saying there is no such blog, but I can have the name if I want to buy it.
