this would require that Obama had some sort of influence .... He Has None. When health care fails, when cap-and-trade fails, when the second stimulus fails, when whatever decision is made about Afghanistan fails, ... and finally considering SNL has turned on him, only the HuffingtonPost needs to go negative for the cards to fully collapse. Here's a clue... The country is center-right, and even more so, now that we've had a look at what far-left really means.
A great move for a slow weekend, "Seven Days in May" from the '60s I think. In the movie Congress and the President have an approval ratings in the range of 10-20% and the military leadership an apprivial rating of 80%. The military believed the Congress and the President had turned their backs on the constitution and it was their sworn duty to restore the government to its constitutional core values. If the US suffers another terrorist attach, which would further destroy the markets, with increased unemployment, food shortages, and fuel shortages during a winter (global warming my ass). Do you think the military will support Obama if he quits Iraq (our achievements lost), and then Afganistan? Do you think Obama or Congress would be able to restore confidence? It probably would not be a military takeover with tanks, aircraft and troop deployments. It would look in the press a headline of "The Vice President" has resigned for health reasons; the President has appointed General YourMostPopularGeneral as Vice President. Within a short time the President resigns. All of the power struggle would be behind closed doors and certainly not reported by the 'bought and paid for press'. Remember the military have taken an oath to defend the constitution. For the most part, that is the constitution of our founding fathers, not the meaningless document described by the Collectivist left.... I thought the plot of "Seven Days in May" would not be possible. Now, I wish somebody would recast the characters and update the plot; I think it would be a great box office hit. Have a good weekend! http://www.amazon.com/Seven-Days-Ma...ef=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1255222345&sr=8-1
the military wouldn't waste their time with a lame-duck ... and Obama is just about there. Now, if the title of this thread was "Venezulaen Military coup could oust Chavez" ... it might lead to an interesting discussion.
Exactly. There was so much more reason to talk about revolt in 2000-1 than in 2008-9. The rigged voting machines, the stopped count, the completely unprecedented Supreme Court interference. Fortunately the extreme left stayed cool, even though we got the worse Administration in US history. For these candy-ass reichtards to talk about a coup against Obama proves one thing: it really is about his race. They simply can't stand the idea of a black man in the Oval Office. This is what you get for giving us 8 years of Bush/Cheney. Most voters looked at McBush/Palin and gagged and voted for the black guy. Don't you wish you had voted for Kerry now?
Afghan soldier shoots dead 2 American troops KABUL (Reuters) - An Afghan soldier on guard at a joint base with U.S. troops shot dead two American servicemen and wounded two others as they slept, a provincial official said on Saturday. Shahedullah Shahed, spokesman for the governor of Wardak province west of Kabul, said the shooting took place after a combined team of Afghan and U.S. forces had returned from a joint operation late on Friday. "The Americans were in the middle of sleep when an Afghan soldier on duty opened fire on them," Shahed said. "We have no clue as to why he shot them." A statement from NATO-led forces said two American soldiers died from injuries suffered in a "hostile attack" in eastern Afghanistan on Friday. A press officer for the Western troops said he could give no further details of the incident. http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSTRE5921AO20091003
Social unrest ain't gonna be pretty. Let us hope it never gets that bad. But with these idiots in charge, I would not make any predictions. " Some" of them do not appear to have a high regard for the constitution, based on their public statements. So far, Obama has kept his mouth shut and I hope it stays that way. by the way, let us not forget Bush did some damage of his own.
Barack Obama and his team have failed the USA with $82 Trillion of debts on and off the books. http://usdebtclock.org/
I was WAY AHEAD of this guy for this idea.............. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=142429&highlight=coup
EXACTLY, what Constitutional Law has been broken? Do you even know what laws are described in the Constitution? Punks.
