| "Can't wait for the leftards' misery when Romney wins. It will be like eating foie gras to the sound of trumpets." @jamesdelingpole on Twitter last week. Well: I think that's what they call a 'hostage to fortune.' And, of course, I don't remotely blame all the leftards who've been blowing raspberries in response.[Snip]On the evidence of Obama's four years in power so far, what exactly have they seen that augurs so well for the next four years of the American presidency? Was it his resolute decision to sacrifice the lives of four brave men in Benghazi, perhaps? Or was it

America is lost.
I'm embarrassed that this nation would elect, and re-elect Obama, an America-hating Marxist.
America is no longer that shining beacon on the hill and the best hope for freedom and humanity. With Obama in command, America moves to global irrelevance and economic ruin.

Like we used to say among the grunts in Viet Nam to every inexplicable misfortune perpetrated by Washington politicians and suck up senior officers: DON'T MEAN NUTHIN'
Evil and incompetence always win.
Deal with it and move on.
If you're hoping for America to be the shining city on the hill spoken of by our last decent President in the early '80's, get over it. That America disappeared decades ago.
Accept reality - you will fare much better.

This fight IS NOT over!
I don’t yet know how best to proceed... but I do know this; For me, this fight is NOT over! I may not have that many years left in me... but some of my friends do... and their children do... and their soon to be grandchildren do... and other Americans whom I do not even know do... and it’s just too important to let that go without continuing to fight!
There is simply nowhere else in this world to go... and I WILL NOT give up this fight while I can still draw breath!!
As yet, I have no solid plan of action... but I WILL formulate one and I WILL prosecute it with everything that I have left in me — so help me God!! I will not give up this fight for Freedom started some 236 years ago by Patriots marching through the snow in their bare feet!!!
All the sacrifice... all the blood... all the misery... This can NOT have been spent in vain!!!
So help me God, I mean this with all my heart; I WILL NOT GIVE UP THIS FIGHT!
Nick

I don't anything in our history tops a president declaring war on part of our country, resulting in the death of 100s or thousands of her citizens, all while trashing the Constitution.
If we can come back from that, we can come back from the pipsqueak!

Thanks, OP, for posting this. My friends who think I'm nuts to worry about the dollar now will be getting a link to this. Delingpole says it like it is:
Problem is, the money has run out. It happened quite a while back and all our governments and their corporatist and bankster allies have been doing these last few years is finding ever more ingenious ways of disguising the fact. Just so long as they can keep the scam going just that little bit longer, that's all they care about.
I don't think we can last four more years without our dollar failing. Especially if there is a rogue nuke attack. But, yes we must fight. And we must have a candidate ready to take over who knows how to lead like Reagan did, rebuilding us from the ashes. Gov Sarah Palin could do it -- but we'll have to see what the press is like by then. They may be broken without advertisers to pay their cushy salaries.

2nd term:
You Didn't Build That
Revenge
It Never Worked (free enterprise)
Excepting the greedy racist House in its way, the Left sees its long-awated golden opportunity to force a Glorious Socialist Revolution upon the USA. Its century-long struggle was never about anything else, and they will not pass up this once in a lifetime chance to destroy America (for the "common good"). We will be seeing Obama's true colors, and they will all be dark red.

Don't buy gold except for maybe vintage collector coins. There's a provision in the death bill that allows the goobermint to confiscate any other form of gold and these transactions are reported to the goobermint. Vintage coins are not. I don't know about silver.

Well, Mr. Delingpole, at least your prime minister is happy. He has a fellow traveler to work with.
In the past, I have looked at history to calm myself. We, the USA, the free world, have been in bad positions before and worked our way out of them. I, somehow, don't feel any comfort in reviewing history anymore.

You´ll remember all that fuss about bees and neonicotinoids last month. It seemed to come out of nowhere--like a flash mob. Suddenly, it was the most urgent cause of the moment for green activists everywhere, with people taking to the streets in bee costumes and celebrities from Vivienne Westwood to Stephen Fry rushing to lend their support. [Snip] Those of us who´ve observed the environmental movement at work, though, will have recognised a familiar pattern here. First, the emergence of a new poster child victim of man´s selfishness and greed: in this case the bee. And we all love bees

Local Conservative party campaigners, including the chairman of one constituency association, will this week pledge their support for Nigel Farage after one of David Cameron’s allies described grassroots Tories as “mad, swivel-eyed loons”. Mr Farage uses an advertisement in Monday´s Telegraph to urge Conservative voters to back Ukip. The “loons” description, he says, is “the ultimate insult” from a party leadership that has betrayed the trust of its own supporters. He writes in the advertisement: “Only an administration run by a bunch of college kids, none of whom have ever had a proper job in their lives, could so

Severe weather has left a violent trail of destruction through the Midwest and South, bringing high winds, heavy rains and tornadoes - and at least one person has been killed. Numerous twisters were spotted on Saturday evening near Rozel, a sparsely populated area in central Kansas. They were also reported to the south in parts of Oklahoma and Iowa. Lightning bolts lit up the sky as the storm moved through. A National Weather Service advisory warned: ´You could be killed if not underground or in a tornado shelter.´ ´Complete destruction of neighborhoods, businesses and vehicles will occur.

People in two states were taking shelter amid wailing warning sirens Sunday as tornadoes were confirmed to have touched down in Kansas and Oklahoma as part of an extreme weather system plowing through the nation´s midsection. The system, which stretched from North Texas to Minnesota, also heaved hail--dime to softball sized--as well as heavy rainfall. Residents in downtown Wichita, Kan., were told to seek shelter Sunday afternoon after a tornado was confirmed on the ground--with its presence cloaked by thick thunder clouds and heavy rain. Near Oklahoma City, a half-mile wide tornado was reported, prompting a stark alert

In the executive suite on the 11th floor of a former bank building in downtown Columbia, a folk art painting propped up against the wall warns, “Look busy, Jesus is coming.” This is Tony Keck’s office, but he doesn’t need to bother looking busy. [Snip] The core of Keck’s message is that Medicaid, and health insurance generally, isn’t making people healthier. He can’t justify spending more money to expand what he sees as an inefficient program, even if the federal government is offering the state billions of dollars to make that happen.

What was the reason you gave up watching the BBC´s Late Review (or Newsnight Review as it then became) or the BBC Review Show as it now is? For me it was the regular guest called Ekow Eshun. He used to spout such unutterable drivel with such fluent and uninterruptable conviction that it made me think: "I never want to read a book or see a film, play or art show ever again just in case I coincidentally end up developing an opinion as fatuous as Ekow Eshun´s."[Snip] Things have changed.

What did President Obama do on the evening of 9/11/12 when our men were under attack in Benghazi? The invaluable Andrew McCarthy reminds us that Obama and Secretary Clinton had a 10:00 p.m. phone call of which many (including, I think, Chris Wallace) have lost sight. This morning when Wallace asked Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer what Obama was up to that evening, Pfeiffer declared the line of inquiry “offensive.” Translation: Obama and his minions would prefer to “move on” and are warning the likes of FNC off:(Snip for video)The Weekly Standard’s Daniel Halper has posted the rush transcript

WASHINGTON - There were new questions Saturday night concerning if anyone in the White House was aware of the IRS´ targeting of conservative groups. Inspector General Russell George said he informed a deputy at the Treasury Department in June of 2012 about the probe into the IRS. The Treasury Department confirmed the timeline but said they did not know the details of the investigation until last week.(Snip)Marcus Owens ran the tax-exempt division at the IRS for 10 years. He said it isn´t difficult to figure out who´s doing what at the agency.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: You are the mantle of Frederick Douglass and Booker T.

It began in earnest last Friday. A flash mob of latte drinking, tofu eating media that has done its best to quell, rather than fan the flames of truth, turned on one of their own. Jay Carney lay bludgeoned at the base of the podium, a victim of friendly fire. Ironically, the attack was reminiscent of the one in Benghazi he has repeatedly denied the Administration he represents bears any responsibility for. “Changed twelve times?!” came the cries. And with good reason. We were misled; no, lied to.

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on Friday urged congressional leaders to raise the debt limit and insisted that the White House is not going to negotiate over the increase because lawmakers have "no choice." "We will not negotiate over the debt limit," Lew wrote. "The creditworthiness of the United States is non-negotiable. The question of whether the country must pay obligations it has already incurred is not open to debate." Lew said that while President Obama is willing to discuss plans to reduce the nation´s deficit with Congress, those talks must be kept separate from any effort to raise the nation´s debt cap.

Washington – Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-MO, issued a video statement Friday in response to reports that the Internal Revenue Service unfairly targeted conservative nonprofit groups. (Snip) “There’s a reason Lady Justice wears a blindfold in America. That is because in America, we don’t apply the law based on who you are, who you know, or what you believe. We apply the law equally.” “We should not only fire the head of the IRS, which has occurred, but we’ve got to go down the line and find every single person who had anything to do with this and make sure

"Can you see in your mind´s eye a way that this might not have been political, that this was a misguided stupid way to sort, but that they didn´t intend it to be some kind of political attempt to harass the Tea Party?"

There will be lots more hearings coming up this week
