In a couple of days, you're going to own at least 70% of automaker GM, whether you want to or not. Since the Bama took over, America has not leapt toward Marxism - it has flown. The US government is now in the auto, banking, and insurance businesses. We own GM. We own CitiBank. We own AIG insurance.
We're not supposed to - nowhere in our founding documents is there any provision for such takeovers. But we do now. The speed with which this is happening amazes even the good folks over at Pravda, where they note: It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed.
First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and substandard education system based on pop culture, rather then the classics. Americans know more about their favorite TV dramas then the drama in DC that directly affects their lives. They care more for their "right" to choke down a McDonalds burger or a BurgerKing burger than for their constitutional rights.
The final collapse has come with the election of Barack Obama. His speed in the past three months has been truly impressive. His spending and money printing has been a record setting, not just in America's short history but in the world. If this keeps up for more then another year, and there is no sign that it will not, America at best will resemble the Wiemar Republic and at worst Zimbabwe.
Oddly, the folks over in Russia seem to have a better understanding of what's happening in our country today than do most citizens. Things are really out of hand when even uberliberal Ted Ralls starts dissing The One. When he suggests that Obama should step down, you know that Bama's floundering around in really deep doo-doo.
MIAMI — We expected broken promises. But the gap between the soaring expectations that accompanied Barack Obama’s inauguration and his wretched performance is the broadest such chasm in recent historical memory. This guy makes Bill Clinton look like a paragon of integrity and follow-through.
Obama is useless. Worse than that, he’s dangerous. Which is why, if he has any patriotism left after the thousands of meetings he has sat through with corporate contributors, blood-sucking lobbyists and corrupt politicians, he ought to step down now — before he drags us further into the abyss.
Make no mistake: when love affairs end, things can get downright messy. And when a partisan hack such as Ralls dares to print such material, it's a sure sign that the love affair is over.
