My last post on the 2008 election

As my last election 2008 post, I would like to say to all those that didn't get what they wanted from this election:

GET OVER IT!

Yes, the country will go in the wrong direction towards a more socialistic government, but that's the way the voters said they wanted it to go. So you will just have to live with it, or leave.

Taxes are going to go up, small businesses will lay off, and at the end of BHO's first 4 years, we will have huge unemployment, massive government give-aways that you have admit started under the last term of Bush-43. We will have nationalized health care and retirement systems. The government will have made major in-roads into reducing free-speech with the re-enactment of the "Fairness Doctrine." At least the recent Supreme Court decision on gun control dealing with the Washington DC hand gun ban will take a bit longer to unravel by the liberals, but its coming.

The USA will slowly move towards the USSA, but that's what the voters wanted. When it begins to happen, I will be sure to blog about here since it may one of the last places of true free speech.

I don't dislike BHO, just his inexperience, naiveté and lack of solutions as given by his big use of platitudes not details during the campaign. If he implements or allows his cohorts in the Congress (Reid/Pelosi/Frank) to do what they want, it will all come down our ears since they will tax small business into reducing employment, they will drive capital out of the USA and nationalize more areas of society.

Republicans/Conservative: you are NOT off the hook since it was the Bush-43 administration that nationalized the financial system via their 4 horsemen of the financial apocalypse (Greenspan, Paulson, Bernanke, and Cox) that let this crisis get really going with the help of Dems: Dodd, Frank, and BHO. It will be history that will lay this rousing defeat at the doorstep of Bush-43 as he will be known as the destroyer of the modern day Republican Party.

Democrats: don't get smug since you now have to bear all the weight of what happens from now on. You blamed Bush-43 from the day he took office for all the things that Clinton did, so you now have to take the same medicine. Everything from now on is BHO's fault and yours.

Finale: done with election 2008.

It's all over but the crying or shouting

It's not even 1400 in the east, and some of the pro-Obama media outlets are already calling it for Obama. Some of the posts on the Huffington Post, the Daily Kos, and Media Matters are calling it a "once in lifetime" landslide, a (shall we dare say) "mandate", etc.

The McCain/Palin groups are getting more and more quiet as the ultimate defeat comes more into clarity and they see the inevitable future without the White House being occupied by a qualified candidate. While BHO will be the President-elect, it still does not make him qualified with on 143 days as a US Senator before declaring his candidacy for the President of the US. How anyone can say that this makes him qualified for this office even his own running mate, Joe Biden, said of BHO:

"the Presidency doesn't lend itself to on-the-job training."

and I would guess he would know being in US national politics for over 30 years.

However, the US is going to put BHO in the White House due to a strange set of circumstance, twists and turns.

Had Hillary not voted for the was the 2nd time, she would have won her party's nomination since it would have stolen BHO's main primary slogan against her.

Had Huckabee run a more manly campaign and blown the Republican field away early, he would have been the Republican nominee giving the conservatives someone they could get behind.

Had the Republicans used the Clintonesque "dirty tactics" and exposed BHO's associations early and often, BHO would not be the Democratic nominee.

Had McCain allowed Palin to be Palin and not hand-cuffed her and held her back, she would not have been the liability she become to the McCain later in the campaign.

Had McCain run a more normal, fighting, and passionate campaign, he would have fired up his base.

Had McCain not voted for the ESA 2008...

Had the Republicans continued to pound BHO's complete lack of experience...

Had McCain showed exactly which Democrats (Dodd, Frank, and BHO) had their hands all over the failure of the mortgage industry often and loud...

Oh well, we get what we vote for and for the next 4-8 years the USA gets BHO. However, as many of the Democrats said in 2000, "he's not my President".

He's not my President since BHO is not a constitutional protecting politician and so I will chose to not be a part of this failing democracy while a socialist is in the White House (McCain or BHO).

Gotcha! Thought I only think BHO is a socialist! Well, there you go, McCain is not far behind. That's why I voted for myself.

Over the next months and years, I will continue to tick off the BHO's top ten agenda items as they begin the dismantling of the USA and turning it into the USSA.

Stay tuned.

Best reasons for voting for McCain/Palin

The best reasons for voting for McCain/Palin that I have heard came from the very liberal "Boston Legal" television program and the character played by ex-Star Trek Caption action, Bill Shatner.

Shatner's character, Denny Crane, in a conversation with his pal on the balcony said that the 2 main reasons he was voting for McCain was:

Salmon: McCain/Palin with save the salmon runs in Canada and Alaska
Women: He says women are easier to get in a Republican administration

When you can laugh about the more qualified team losing to a much more unqualified team due to the voting patterns of the American electorate, one has reached the pinnacle of "apoliticalness" (my word).

I look forward to watching TV and movies today, and simply forgetting about the election today now that I have voted this morning.

Now, you may wonder who I voted for given my complete lack of support for either political team?

Well, I exercised my right to vote and I voted for MYSELF on a write-in ballot. Now trust me, using a write-in ballot in my state (a very blue, blue state) is very tough to do.

First you have to be at least 5'8" to even reach the write-in area of the ballot machine. Next you have to know that you can even do write-ins given the fact that everyone in the voting area had no idea how to do it. I had to show the election workers how to do a write-in ballot.

Second, you have decide that doing a write-in for President is NOT wasting your vote as everyone will tell you when you even consider doing such a thing. It is NOT wasting your vote since every vote regardless of whom it is cast is important.

Third, doing a write-in ballot in my state brings all kinds of sneers and confusion from both the election workers and those that know you did a write-in.

So, there it is, I will get 1 vote for President, Congress, and State Senator. I do this when there is no one worth voting for and I have a complete lack of interest in the slate offered. It is not wasted, it is also not voting for the lessor of 2 evils.

Congratulations, BHO on being the first totally unqualified President of the USA. I am not diminishing your accomplishment of running a successful campaign, just simply you have no qualifications, in my humble opinion, that recommend you for that office.

Now once you take office and everything turns to shit, please be man enough to take responsibility and not try and pawn it off on previous administrations or events outside of your control. Winning means you have to be accountable; that's part of the spoils that go with the victory.

McCain should throw this election and quick!

McCain shouldn't really want to win this election since he would be saddled with a SMDC that will do nothing but make his life and his administration a living hell especially if they win a veto-override majority in both houses of Congress.

He would be prevented for doing anything that he promised, and anything he vetoed would be immediately overridden. His judge nominees would be completely eviscerated on public TV to the point where no mentally capable jurist would even allow his/her name to be put in nomination.

He would not be able to get his cabinet choices through and he would be knocked on any spending cuts or energy policy solutions he would propose. His presidency would be completely blocked and made impotent by the SMDC.

McCain should throw this election and wait for the huge mess that the unholy 3 (BHO, Reid, and Pelosi) are going to make of the this country.

There may be such a ruckus over their extreme liberalism policies that come 2010 they might be thrown out like they were in 1994 when Hillary tried to over reach on national health care. Only these 3 will be able to get ton done and when it hits the voters, they may either accept like the sheep Americans are becoming, or they will revolt if there is any fight left in them after the unholy 3 are done with implementing their agenda.

Pro-McCain media kicked off Obama plane

If you haven't believed me before you should now, the BHO campaign has kicked off 3 pro-McCain newspaper reporters, the Washington Times, the New York Post, and the Dallas Morning News, due to "space problems." Amazing that it was the McCain-endorsing newspapers that were kicked off and now of the others.

Add to to this the Democratic-based Ohio officials that are investigating "Joe the Plumber" (Samuel Joe Wurzelbacher) for no other reason then he asked BHO an embarrassing question, and you get a picture of what the BHO White House will do to those that don't agree or have the audacity to embarrass their position.

Punishment for disagreement with the BHO administration is going to show the world that BHO is nothing short of moving towards a government-controlled or "punished" media, it would seem like voters would start to see how BHO and his SMDC are going to "change the rules."

An independent press and that means those that don't agree with you have to be allowed equal access to the government is one of the most important guarantees of freedom in any country. One of the first rights bridled when a totalitarian leaning government begins to take over in a political formation is the right of a free-press since a free-press will expose, uncover and illustrate the government's take over of personal freedoms and liberties.

The liberal press and blogosphere are going to change their tune once the same limitations now being imposed on the conservative free-press either through the removal of access to BHO or via the "Fairness Doctrine" is going to be turned on them as soon as they begin to show some of the BHO and SMDC's excesses. I know they believe that BHO's administration will never turn on them, but BHO has a record of turning on those that previously supported him when it didn't improve his political stature. Remember how he dumped Wright, Ayers, ACORN, and the list goes on.

The liberal press will soon the object of his limitations as well. It has happened in many other political venues, and if BHO and his SMDC get their mandate, IT WILL HAPPEN IN AMERICA.

It's even worse for McCain & Palin

Watching the responsible polls (Rasmussen, Clear Politics, etc), BHO is really beginning to pull away from McCain/Palin to the point where its going to be a landslide victory and it is very likely BHO may pull a SMDC in with him.

McCain is losing in all the states that Bush 43 won in 2004, and he is even going lose some of the Southern states that have been dead set against a BHO/SMDC victory. I am still predicting that BHO is going to win over 400 electoral college votes and all but about 10-12 states. This is going to give him such an ego boost that with his SMDC, BHO is going to go nuts with his legislative agenda and judicial replacement choices.

This will change the face of American politics and culture forever. America is going to down and there is nothing to stop it. We are going to be a socialized, government controlled country. I don't think anything can stop that so get ready for big changes.

The one decision that ended McCain's campaign

McCain destroyed his campaign with one decision: to support the ESA 2008 and going along with Bush 43 and his very ignorant group of financial advisors (Paulson, Bernanke, and Cox - more on them later).

Had McCain opposed the ESA 2008 and the market tanked as it has, he could have claimed that he warned the Bush 43 and Congress against this action and BHO would have looked like an economic neophyte. This would put McCain up over 10pts in the polls as he would have been the guy right on the economy which is the most important issue for Nov. 4th.

So how does BHO get a pass since he voted for the same bill as McCain?

Simple, BHO is a Democrat and they are party that is better supported by the media and they want the White House, not already in it. Thus, they will get the pass and be elected, and poor McCain will have to look back on his campaign as being totally unhinged by 1 decision.

The insiders are saying that Gov. Palin warned McCain about supporting the ESA 2008. She told him that he should publicly oppose the ESA 2008 for 2 reasons:

1. He would have claimed in hind-sight that the market action proves that the ESA 2008 was the wrong thing to do and he could have been the "right man with the right decisions" on the economy.

2. He could have claimed that he does not go with Bush-43 and the Democratic Congress and he was right.

He did neither and is now not just the underdog, he is the whipped dog that will be sent home. Sorry, Senator, you violated your long-standing maverick status. Should have stayed true to your principles.

Bye bye, now.

PS: Sarah P: you will do more good in Alaska.

BHO continues march towards #44

The race tightens due to BHO's comment about "spreading the wealth," and the new Rasmussen poll about the comments show that there is a class warfare split right along the lines of have and have nots. This is the danger that such statements bring.

BHO is clearly playing to the voters that will put him in power, but these people don't give money to campaigns, so BHO has to keep the ones that give money (those that have the money and are potential targets of the socialistic comments and policies of BHO) happy and giving.

However, once BHO gets into office in Jan 2009, all bets are off. He will move quickly and decisively within the first 100 days (assuming he gets his super-majority Democratic Congress) to enact his "reforms" that will change the USA into the USSA.

During the first 100 days, BHO and his Congress are going to beside the hearings to convict the Bush 43 administration of all kinds of things:

1. Ratify the Kyoto Protocol on AGW (do your homework) that the Clinton administration and Republican Congress did not ratify.

2. He will setup the removal of the Bush tax cuts

3. He will do a 2nd stimulus package going farther into the deficit spending mode

4. Begin the discussions of nationalized health care and retirement

5. Set a time table to remove soldiers from Iraq and and a big increase of violence will erupt forcing him to renege on that promise

6. Begin direct bail-out of low income mortgagors directly behind the scenes by ACORN

These will show some of the socialistic policies that BHO will begin putting into place within his first 100 days. Now remember what the very inexperienced JFK almost got the world into? Don't know and will not do your homework?

Google: Bay of Pigs and Cuban Missile Crisis

We can look forward to a Pakistani Crisis if the inexperienced BHO goes the same way as JFK.

BHO will be elected in a landslide!

OK, its official at least for me. BHO will be elected in a landslide along with a supermajority Democratic Senate and veto proof House. The Republican Congress people can simply stay home since they will be totally ignored by Commandant Pelosi and Comrade Reid. The GOP will be completely decimated in the coming election due to their total lack of ethics, character, and conservative leanings. The biggest of these buffoons is the current Republican President Bush 43.

Bush 43 has done more to wreck, ruin, destroy, and/or otherwise reduce to irrelevance the Republican Party. It will be a very long time if at all before the GOP will come back to have any hand in operation of the US Government.

Now what does this mean? Well, given the fact that it was Republican administration and Congress that moved us into this condition where a few Democrats could force them to allow the 1990-2004 government intervention via the CRA, support for ACORN, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac non-supervision to push this financial crisis upon us.

So do I think that the Republicans should be allowed to remain in power? Hell, no! They have shown that they can't and don't understand fiscal responsibility, ethics, nor how to govern correctly. They squandered their huge power take-over beginning in 1994 by becoming as bad or worse than the liberal/Democrats to the point where you don't have 2 parties in this country -- you have only 1 large moderate, very stupid, very ineffectual political class.

The response to this financial crisis will be complete rout of the Republican Party in the Fall 2008 election. I am guessing that it will be hard, bloody, and ugly. BHO will not even have to worry about ACORN's fraudulent registrations in battle ground states since he will handily capture PA, OH, MI, FL, NV, and MO. I am guessing that unless BHO does something very stupid which I think if highly unlikely since he is a very smooth, smart politician, BHO will care the election in very heavy numbers (53-47 or worse) while carrying along a very smartly Democratic Congress.

As a fiscal conservative, personal responsibility advocate, I really don't care who wins in November, I just want those that are stupid to be spanked (the Republicans) and the voters to get what they deserve: BHO and his Democratic Congress and all that brings.

I will have a lot of fun after Nov 4, 2008 once BHO makes his real agenda evident along with the Congress to allow him to implement it. It will be FDR, LBJ, and Jimmy Carter all rolled into one.

We will the New Great Deal Society with hyper-inflation and elongated depressive economics which will allow the BHO government to power grab even more in the name of saving us all from ourselves.

Wow! It should be a great 8 years.

McCain's as Bad as the Democrats

McCain's idea to have the EERA of 2008 use some of its funds, $300 Billion USD, to help bail out actual mortgagors by reducing the amount of their mortgage from what they signed for in a legal contract to the actual value that their real estate is worth now (whatever that may be - talk to a real estate broker to figure that one).

Now what is the LOUC on this very stupid idea?

Well, if your neighbor is going to get his/her mortgage reduced because they are behind in their payments, but you are not, then what are you going to do? Right! You are going to stop paying your mortgage so that you can become eligible to get the same mortgage reduction that your neighbor is getting.

Wonderful! The LOUC is going to really exacerbate the credit crisis by increasing the number of mortgagors that begin to default on their properties. What a republican idea, eh?

Now you know why McCain is dead meat. For Gov. Palin: be glad you keep your day job. You will need it.

Nothing will help! McCain is Done!

With the markets currently moving towards the LOS, and the Presidential debates being a bust for McCain, its appears that there is very little to stop the BHO express and the socialization of the USA.

Every 25 years or so, the US takes a big turn from left to right, or right to left. Examples:

In 1932: USA turned to a wheelchair ridden FDR after the 1929 Wall Street Crash, and then watched the world fall into the Great Depression due to his nationalization of the financial system. This is where the 2nd Glass-Steagall Act (June 16, 1933) that FDR got passed along with removing the US Dollar from the gold standard (June 5, 1933) causing the Great Depression to occur due to inflation of a floating monetary instrument.

In 1960: the USA turned to a Senator from Massachusetts, JFK, that took the increasing conservative post-WWII boom town nature of the country when it failed to pan out like Ike had indicated. The JFK entry into the Vietnam war and escalation by his VP, LBJ, led to the 1976-1980 Carter administration hyper-inflation (stagflation).

In 1980: the USA turned right to an ex-actor, RWR, that brought an end to the Cold War with the help of the British PM, M. Hatcher, and established the USA as the sole superpower of the world.

In 2008: the USA will turn left to an unknown, inexperience, socialist, BHO, that is an excellent orator, but have is basically an empty suit running on platitudes and clichés without substance or details. It will be this administration that will move the USA to become a European style socialist government with the US Government taking over everything.

BHO will socialize everything beginning with health care and then rest of the financial systems and insurance. Just listening to his speech today in Indiana, he has already said that he is going to accomplish #1 & 9 (See The USSA Begins Today). Mark my word, as he gains in the polls before the election, listen to his rhetoric become more and more liberal and socialistic. He will still be elected.

The Lessor of Two Evils

It is now time for the truly conservatives of the both the Republican and Democratic parties to realize that voting for the "lessor of 2 evils" will not and has not solved any problems. In fact, the reason that the Republican Party is in its current state of disarray is that so many of its recent elections have forced the "lessor of 2 evil" votes by conservatives of the Republican Party.

This began with the nomination of Bush 41, Senator Dole, and the height of "lessor of 2 evils" was the 2000 and 2004 nomination of Bush 43. In all three cases, conservatives were forced to vote for these candidates even though they were truly not the best candidates, but were marginally better than what the other side had to offer. Again, in 2008, we are forced to vote for McCain/Palin in order not to allow Obama/Biden to win the Presidency.

This concept of accepting the "lessor of 2 evils" only delays the inevitable: that the Republican Party has become as corrupt and useless as the current Democratic Party. In other words, there is really little difference between the 2 parties. We need to let the Dems completely "run the table" in 2008; take control of the entire government including a 60 seat majority in the Senate and then let them push their Socialist agenda and watch the USA slip into a coma.

Maybe then the true conservatives will find their voice and understand that freedom is something that needs to be fought for every day and in every way. Citizenship in the USA is advanced democracy. It requires that people understand that the USA is the last bastion of freedom until last Friday.

Quit voting for the "lessor of 2 evils" and be strong enough to stand up and vote for the best candidate regardless of the outcome. Trust me: BHO is not the best candidate. I can not remember when a more unqualified candidate has made it this far into the process for selection of the American Presidency.

Ah, time will show the mistake of his election in November.

The End of the Republicans & McCain

With the candidacy of Senator McCain, the Republican Party has moved one step farther down the road of extinction. Don't get me wrong, I think that McCain is a very principled and distinguished Senator; however, with his support for the outrageously flawed EERA of 2008, he abandoned his principles for a political advantage. This is the mark of a beltway politico, not the action of a statesman. Even though it may have caused some pain in the short term, a "no vote" by Senator McCain would have allowed him to maintain his career long stance against political pork. His support for such a flawed and pork-ridden bill put him back into the camp of Obama, Dodd, and Speaker Pelosi and her liberal crew in the House.

Supporting this unbelievable piece of ill-written legislation, McCain showed that he did not have what it takes to stand his ground nor be the maverick his most recent actions have showed him to be. McCain should have made the correct decision to fight against this bill for a better one. Nothing required this time line of action except the fear-mongering White House and financial media: both of which has a vested interested in getting the bill passed.

Senator McCain: know this act of political cowardice is not becoming a man of your stature or integrity. Why didn't you have the "gromba" to stand your historical hatred of pork. Too bad, sir.

Too Late, Republicans

It's now too late to pull the Republicans back from the brink of self-imploding. They have now become the party that doesn't listen to its constituents, and hopefully they will pay a price by losing the 2008 election big time. I hope that the Democrats win BIG TIME in November since this will be the only way a new Republican Party can be born.

Bush 41 started the demise of the GOP and his son, Bush 43, completed the work. The GOP is now a defunct party without direction or purpose. It is now time for it to pass into history with Bush's fingerprints all over the trigger that killed it.

I know that letting the Dems control the government sounds radical, and it will hurt, but I think that once they totally screw things up like Clinton tried to do during his time with a Democrat-controlled Congress (1993-1995), I think that the country will see the need to hog-tie BHO and his crew again with a new Conservative-style Congress that will Phoenix from the ashes of the Bush 43 administration.

So, I am no longer a Republican, will not support Republicans, and will do everything I can to make the Democrats win big in November since it will hurry on the demise and rebirth of a Conservative Republican Party.

McCain Lost White House on Passage

Remember, the Government created this financial fiasco in the first place. Do your homework (DYH) and see how the market treats this passage by dumping over 250pts on the DOW. It is not going to solve a thing, and when it becomes a big, flat failure, Congress is going to hang it on the necks of Bush and McCain!

McCain: know this as the time and place that you lost the White House! You will have to know that your turncoat change to support a bill laden with pork and give-mes will go down in history as your Waterloo. Too bad, Senator. You blew it big time!

If you win somehow in November it will only be because BHO missteps big time before the election.

VP Debate Results

OK now that's over and everyone is claiming victory, what do we make of it? Both sides are going to be waiting for the tracking polls to see if their side gets a bounce, and the rest of us normal people, not politicos, not belt-way mongers, not celebrities, know that the real winner wasn't America. In neither participant did I see someone that will put the best interests of America first.

Both were more interested in saying the right thing, or in Senator Biden's side, not saying the wrong thing. The VP candidates both said that they were the right people for the job, but failed to show how they would protect the American taxpayer since both the top ticket candidates voted for the EERA 2008 in the Senate. McCain particularly lost his "no-pork" position when he voted for the bill showing that when running for higher office, one's principles can be and usually are comprised.

Gov. Palin had a chance to show that she was against the pork-laden bill, but either was forced to take McCain's position showing that McCain can't handle opposition voices in his campaign or she also supports the ill-conceived HR 1424. He already know that Obama/Biden haven't met a big-government intrusion they didn't like.

Trust me, the market's in the US are going to be forever changed, and the losses in the market are going to show that over the next few weeks. This bill does nothing to restore the confidence that the fear-mongers from Capital Hill and Wall Street screamed at the top of their lungs. You shout long enough, the same message, and silence anyone else from saying anything different like Liz Claman on FBN does (she is visibly for it and did everything to talk it up), and you will get the results you are looking for from your audience. (See the Nazi's understanding of propaganda activities).

Neil Cavuto, unfortunately and usually a calm, cool head, also is running around saying the "sky is falling." Unbelievable. The markets will sell-off if the bills fails since the bill is mainly a bail-out of Wall Street idiots (read that investment banks and hedge funds) and those that have allowed them to do what they did to put us in this position.

America is doomed as soon as the US Government socializes its financial markets.

2008 Election Predictions

So I am making this prediction: Senator Obama will be the next US President, and the Senate will become close if not a filibuster-proof body for the Democrats. With that control of the government, thanks in most part to the Republican party destroyer, Bush 43, the Democrats will take the USA to a European-style socialistic government format within the 8 years of Obama's Presidential terms.

Those that don't want it will in fact fall in line when they see that "if you can't beat 'em, join em" philosophy.

The V P Debate Tonight

Tonight, October 2, 2008 at 2100, the 2 VP candidates will meet in a debate in St. Louis. The outcome will be either a slam-dunk for Senator Biden, or if Gov. Palin stays true to herself, she will hold her own and win back the votes for her side of the ticket. Either way, I believe that due to Senator McCain's support for the EERA 2008 so laden with pork, he has now lost the election so it will not make any difference if she wins or loses.

At least Alaska will get an excellent governor back for 2 more years.
