Now that America has shown us all that affirmative action even works in politics, I've compiled a list of things that you can probably expect to happen. These predictions are 80% gleaned from information all of us have access to, and 15% gut instinct based on many years of research, historical study, and being glued to current affairs. The other 5% is just anger at my countrymen's stupidity--I admit it.
- Websites and mass emails offering "free grants," courtesy of the government and "Obama's wealth redistribution." Actually, this one's a freebie, because I have an email with a date and timestamp of literally minutes after Obama was declared the winner, offering exactly that.
- Israel will understand this election was the end of any type of assistance, military or otherwise, from the U.S., and will stop holding back their defense at the request of the American administration. Look for a first strike on Iran soon, as well as increased activity by the Israeli military in general. Israel is on her own now, and God help us all because of it.
- Look for Iranian retaliation--against American targets. That goes doubly for other terrorist organizations. We just elected a man with the full endorsement of every major terrorist group in the world as leader of the free world. It's the political equivalent of hiring a child molester to baby-sit your kids while you leave for the weekend. Not only is HE going to have fun with your child, but he'll probably sit and watch while his friends come over and do it too.
- Look for far-left justices appointed to the Supreme Court, effectively tying up the entire government in a trifecta of liberal humanism, the buzzwords of which remain empty platitudes like "hope and change," and the ultimate goal of which is socialism--and soon, sharia law.
- Military cases of troops being tried and convicted for killing the enemy in combat will continue to rise--and the conviction/plea-bargain rate will stay at nearly 100%, as the government seeks to use the best men and women this country has to offer as sacrificial lambs on the altar of global appeasement. Those brave and honorable men who currently reside in prison cells across the country, stripped of their rank, their careers, families, and their good name, will not taste free air again for many years. Their sacrifices and their stories will be forgotten by the general public, remembered only by those of us who continue to fight for them.
Look for the slow but steady erosion of rights you have enjoyed for your entire lives--all the while being told it's "for your own good." Restrictions on gun ownership, home schooling, encouraged dependence on the ever-growing federal government. More nanny-state provisions will be put into place to protect the "disadvantaged" and the "poor," (read: lazy, uneducated, unwilling to better themselves) even while groups like the unborn, the mentally handicapped, elderly, and terminally ill are slowly pushed toward euthanasia. Of course, this will be done with feel-good phrases like "death with dignity," "not wanting to be a burden," and "merciful release from suffering," all of which ignore the basic fact that we are killing people without their consent for the "good of the people." Before you tell me I'm crazy, let's just remember that Barack Obama was the ONLY senator in the Illinois state senate to vote against providing medical care for babies who were inconsiderate enough to survive an abortion.

Also, look for taxes to go up. Yes, they'll go up.
- You think the economy is bad now? Just wait. You'll have the most expensive "free" health care ever. Bread lines aren't just for Russians anymore.
We have traded experience for color, freedom for slavery--and the irony is that the average American sheeple thinks their vote somehow righted an ancient wrong, somehow ENDED the spectre of slavery and ushered in some beautiful era of liberty. In reality, we are about to be less free than you ever thought possible.
I watched the faces of those crowded into the mob (excuse the pun) in Chicago. They stared at Obama like he was a god, an idol, a panacea to their every want and need. We have truly failed as a nation if we are at the point where we feel we must look to one man to take care of us all, to be our father figure and our sugar daddy. We have lost not only the "can-do" attitude of past generations, but the "MUST-do" attitude of our forefathers. We have allowed ourselves to become reduced from Patrick Henry's proud cry of "liberty or death" to the sniveling, whining idea that we are owed something. We have gone from being the honorable defenders of freedom, to being told we are the problem.
The eyes of Obama and McCain were also telling. McCain acted with class and grace in his concession speech, offering the most honorable response I've seen yet. I don't agree with all of McCain's positions, but it cannot be denied that the man has served his nation--at permanent and severe detriment to himself--for half a century. His eyes were clear and sincere, honest. His speech underlined the very reasons why, of the two men offered, he was hands down the best choice.
On the other hand, Obama's eyes were cold, calculating. His manner was smug and still carried the arrogance he has always had. His facial expression was one of barely disguised disdain for everything people like me believe in. His body language was smooth, polished--too much so. He talked of patriotism as though it is a value he is familiar with--and yet, his horrifying attitude toward the country he now leads is as well-documented as his friendships with those who seek its demise. He is charismatic to those who don't know what to look for, and he is inspiring to those who cannot or will not think for themselves. However, too many who voted for him are guilty of the most dangerous kind of hypocrisy. You see, we are told daily that we must not see color, just mankind.(We are all family, you know--or so we're told.) And yet Barack Obama was handed the White House on a silver platter by a fawning media, a bevy of foreign donors (who, to this day and in violation of U.S. election laws, remain nameless and unaccounted for), and a populace who voted based on color instead of right and wrong--even in the face of the most damning evidence against a Presidential candidate in many years, perhaps ever.
It is said that the people receive the government they deserve. Sadly, I fear that's correct. We have become complacent, unwilling to see the writing on the wall, content to frolic in the warm water without bothering to notice that it's been getting hotter by the minute. We are two seconds from a rolling boil--and perhaps it is already too late.
So, liberals, enjoy your victory. Jump around. Have a party, file for your free grants. Scream "Gimme my handout!" and make fun of those of us who fought to make sure your "messiah" didn't get access to the most powerful position in the world. Just remember when it all comes crashing down: You own the White House, the Congress, and soon the Supreme Court. You have no one to blame but yourselves for the mess you just created.

Wow... Are you being serious? Why are you so mad?

Your "research" is ridiculous. Allow me to address some of the hypocritical, misconceptual garbage that you are spewing across the web.

You say "Look for the slow but steady erosion of rights you have enjoyed for your entire lives--all the while being told it's "for your own good."

I say the process started with YOUR president, Mr. Bush. Have you ever heard of the Patriot Act? Yeh. Authorities no longer need warrants for search and seizure. Heck, they could bust into your house while you are away, search through your things, and then prosecute you for what they find....all without a warrant. Why is this possible? Because "Its for your own good." Its all in the name of Terrorism, which YOUR president, Mr. Bush helped create.

You say to Look for the Democratic Trifecta...I agree. Only good can come out of that. A democratic ran country will help free us from the economic slavery that the Republican party has forced us into. You think that the economy will worsen under Obama's watch?? What do you have to say about Bush's 2 terms in office??? The Federal Reserve, along with Republican aid has placed this country in the shitter. And What, You think our economy would be better under McCain's watch??? Did you really think about what you typed??

Next...You are killing me with your blind facts... Regarding Barack Obama voting against medical care for babies, yes he initially voted against the bill. But you didn't tell the people that he did so because the bill was ambigously written that it had many loopholes. He voted against the bill as a way to take it back to the drawing board for more clarification.

Next...

According to Obama's plan the only people that will see a tax raise are those that make more than $250,000 a year. And Actually, that tax rate will be the same as it was for that bracket before bush got into office....I'll take my tax cut!

And Speaking of raising taxes, McCain wanted to tax your health insurance...how do you feel about that? NEXT...

You live in a sad reality my friend. That "Mob" that you saw were Thousands of Americans who have felt the oppression of a Government that has forgotten about the little people. Those people had the fire of love and unity in their eyes. It was a beautiful site, and for you to not be able to appreciate that says alot about who you are and what you believe in. Sad. McCain's concession speech was his BEST SPEECH OF THE WHOLE CAMPAIGN!!! And he didn't even write it! McCain knew that his end was coming a good week before the election. It was either perform a graceful speech or go down as the sorest loser in America's history. And Whatsup with your hateful republican pals? Why so much hate and disdain? When McCain Said Obama, Mass boos erupted from the crowd, but when Obama Acknowledged John McCain, it was all love from the Democratic side. Wake Up! Wat r u doing to yourself?

You really need to wake up. There is a new majority forthcoming in America, and I'm not Talking racial either. People born between 1978 and 1998 are coming into power, and by 2016, we will be the Majority voting block in America. We will not go for the "Good Ole Days" of politics. Politicians will be held accountable in office.

Obama is the best man to lead available to lead us out of the toilet that the republican reign has put us in. Barack Obama is YOUR new President and you respect and support him like the American you claim to be.

Be careful about what you eat and drink today, my prancing Archer. Your body is in a sensitive state, so be well advised and steer clear of anything that might upset you, or to which you're sometimes allergic. Avoid anyone who's a one-man germ factory, in case a few bugs happen to jump out and over to you. Right now, you could do without it.
