Why I want the Democrats to fail

As we begin this new evolution of the USA towards the USSA (United Socialists States of America), one has to ask himself if this metamorphosis is what he wants for his country, and if not, what can he do about it? In a democracy the majority, now the liberal/socialists, have the ability to control the direction of this country for at least the next 2 years putting into action their agenda and policies. How far will they be able to move, how far will they be able to implement their agenda depends on those that disagree with these policies.
 
Remember our founding fathers warned us of these exact problems.
 
"Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master." George Washington.
 
"When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." Benjamin Franklin

Thomas Jefferson's many quotations about the "tyranny over the mind's of men..." show his feelings towards government gaining too much control over "the people."
 
However, be careful when trying to decide just who is the people, and wh witho speaks for the people. This can be the point where the State tries to usurp control via this cry, "I am the people..." To this end, the 19th century legal philosopher and writer, Lysander Spooner, stated,
 
"State is the name of the coldest of all cold monsters. Coldly it lies; and this lie slips from its mouth: "I, the state, am the people." Lysander Spooner
 
It's no wonder that Mr. Spooner's writings are banned in China.
 
So since BHO stated rather emphatically, "I won. So I think on that one, I trump you." This pretty much states his position on how he intends to govern, and that's why I can say that BHO is NOT my President, and I don't wish him to succeed since if he does, it will not be my country when he is done with it.
