Wow… more doom. Remember, folks; when we say the words “Civil War,” there is tremendous power in those words. The images they invoke are one thing, but the destruction and power they invoke are another altogether. In the meantime, the polarization they provoke is powerful as well.

Words do have power. The lefties figured that one out with, “It’s the economy, stupid.” I credit that phrase with the advent of the playground politician. Keep it simple; no more than one three-sylable word unless it rhymes with another word in the phrase. Keep it short. Make it degrading to your opponent.

It’s something Republicans don’t do well. It’s like a nerd trying to come up with something snappy to say back to the playground bully.

Holy cow, Eggplant; you paint a picture that would have this counterinsurgent turning insurgent!

It’s easy to be an insurgent. Dangerous, but easy.

Bill Clinton was waaaay left, too; and he had a Democrat-controlled congress. What happened? Well, I’m still dealing with “don’t ask, don’t tell” in the Army, and he emasculated our military to the point that we have borne the brunt of this war with what he left us, but he certainly didn’t bring the Constitution to its knees.

And he had Hillary to help him.

No, Obama would be the weakest president we’ve had in a long time, because other than Charles Schumer, he really wouldn’t have much of a voting bloc for what he really wants to do.

Has the man ever held a job for a real company? I mean, a for-profit commercial company that makes, does, or sells a productive thing that people use? I’m not an authority on Obama, but I’ve never heard of him holding a job. Perhaps he worked at McDonald’s in college or something, but didn’t he get a job with a non-profit right out of college and from there right into city council and then the state senate?

Come on, folks; the guy is a snappy campaigner, but this is America. That stuff will wear off within a year after the election when the slogans run thin and the “leadership of hope” turns out to be no match for the machinery of a free economy.

At the first talk of nationalizing an industry, give me a call and we will start planning our local ops. Until then, I’d say that there is no way in the hell that this is the end of American democracy as we know it.
