Congressman: Greece-like ‘day of
reckoning’ complete with ‘riots’
to hit America soon if country
keeps going down same path

Daily Caller, by Matthew Boyle

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 11/11/2012 10:08:03 AM

Louisiana Republican Rep. John Fleming told The Daily Caller that, ever since President Barack Obama’s re-election last Tuesday, he has been advising Americans to play it safe financially because he believes the economy — and the state of the country — may soon get much worse. Fleming said he’s telling concerned constituents and business owners to “not extend yourselves in debt, make sure that you pay off things, don’t get into debt with credit cards, stay as liquid as possible. Don’t take risk, and don’t get into debt. You need to stay less vulnerable economically over the next

I still feel like I´m living in a nightmare. I´m still sick with anxiety and anger over the disaster that has befallen this nation on November 6.

Good cloth-coat Republicans don´t riot.
Rich Liberals don´t riot.
Rioters, ergo, will be Obama voters.

what´s "if country keeps going down the same path"! The country just voted for no
change! As far as riots are concerned, many
people don´t need a reason, they are always in readiness to justify their stand whether correct or not. Look at Chicago. People kill each other for no reason - ex. children
sitting on porches, or just out walking.

Don´t ever do what I did---make yourself sick over an election. My stomach is in a big angry knot. "I need a small vacation." Perhaps a self imposed news blackout might help me.

Things will get worse, but how do you play it safe, with the currency destroyed, and few alternatives. With democracy and those that are responsible and save in the minority, everything will be redistributed as fast as it is deposited in the bank.

fta: After Obama’s re-election, Fleming said now it looks like “the American people chose to continue down that road, despite the fact that we have other countries ahead of us, like Greece, that are suffering massively.”

Call me a pessimist, but there are enough people in this country who want "free" stuff and no responsibility that going down that roar (at least for a while) is inevitable. There are some people who, despite all evidence to the contrary, will continue to believe that they can live in this make believe socialist utopia that the Liberals keep verbally dangling in front of them. It is likely that they will need to see the utter devastation that such a course will bring before they realize that their utopia is simply a fantasy -- and even then, there will be some who will still believe that it is all Bush´s fault.

The best advice in here is to stay out of debt... and keep your powder dry, I might add.

Obama signed an exe. order a few weeks ago authorizing him to seize a bank if they´re doing business with Iran.That could be virtually any bank and who knows what he would do with the banks assets if he did seize them.
There´s no ironclad place for your money,except under the bed or house safe,which a lot of people have now.

Fleming is correct. I have been preaching the same thing to my family and friends for years. It´s time to be very frugal and debt-free. Of course as more and more people realize this it will probably curtail any recovery. If the people who still have some money to spend delay buying a newer car or taking the grandchildren to Disneyworld, etc. it will certainly be felt (and there are millions of us).

Believing that at some point in the downward spiral the "gimmes" will have reality slap them upside their heads is believing in a fantasy. Look to Greece for evidence. As near the bottom as their economy is, it´s the socialists, the "gimmes" that are rioting to stop any meaningful recovery efforts. Won´t be any different here. Changing this country´s direction, if it ever happens, will be a long, drawn out, violent campaign that lasts two generations, at a minimum. We´re out gunned by the majority of the media and our educational system and soon to be out numbered in population. My optimism died Tuesday.

It´s the looming inflation problem that will kick off the riots. Once it gets to the point where the average eater can only buy a couple buckets of KFC with his entire monthly EBT balance all hell is gonna break loose. If you don´t have at least six months of food and water and the means to protect it at the ready, I´d hurry to make it so.

It will be years before we reach the situation Argentina or Greece are experiencing. However, look for inflation, higher unemployment, and new fees (or higher fees) for government services. Probably like the Carter Years, but worse.

PS: I have heard some doctors have come up with a new way to make time for certain patients. For $100 a month, you can prepay for services. Puts you at the front of the line, instead of spending hours in the waiting room. I like it!

If the House does not cave & if the riots start America might wake up. There are 2 lines of thought: 1. Let the bottom fall out & riots begin or 2. Keep our conservative congressmen teaching the remaining listeners(young especially) what our Republic is & how it started. Romney´s campaign did not teach about our nation´s history or what would happen if we didn´t awaken. Late term abortions should have been explained on ads & Detroit,Chicato,NY & inner cities pictures should have been shown in all their ugliness. I think Romney did the best he could but it wasn´t nearly as patriotic as it should have been. WWI & WWII should have been presented & reasons America fought for freedom - it was not. We are not in charge & it is becomming very evident. II Chronicles 7:14

#4 I was at that same place last week. Feeling physically ill with the nervous stomach, plus I am recovering from a surgery too. I decided I couldn´t continue that way, so I did the only and best thing I could, and that is to remember that ultimately God is in control.

I believe everything happens for a reason, and we may not know the reason for this mess for awhile. So I have decided to concentrate more on taking care of my own and less on worrying about what´s going on with politics that I unfortunately can´t change.

We have to leave a lot of this in God´s hands, but still do what we can in our local communities.

This advice is completely 180 degrees wrong. If we are going to experience superinflation, and eventual devaluation of the USDollar, you want to owe as much as possible. Like wealthy Mexicans did when the Peso was devalued in the 1980s, the smart ones had debts in Pesos and assets in US Dollars. When the Peso went from 8 to $1 to 90 to a $1, their debts cost them 10cents on the dollar and their assets were 12x more valuable.

Gold would be a good asset, hard assets would be a good keeper of value (for sale at world market prices).

It is only cold comfort that those Obama voters who refused to consider the election choices, who refused to consider the recent history of the US, who refused to consider the core values of what makes America different from Europe....those Obama voters will be of the first to feel the effects of out-of-control inflation and unavailability of goods and services in the US.

He´s right. Once the "gimmies" run out of Obamaphones and other "free stuff" the riots will start. Hope they burn down their own neighborhoods first then the rest of us will have time to arm ourselves.

In 2007, then Senator Barack Obama appeared on CNN´s Larry King Live and called on U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales to resign. Obama said Gonzales was acting more like the president´s attorney than the people´s attorney and viewed himself as an "enabler of the administration." "Well, I voted against Alberto Gonzales confirmation for precisely the reason we are seeing now. I said this on the floor of the senate, that although he seemed to be a capable attorney, he seemed to conceive his role as being the president´s attorney instead of being the people´s attorney," Obama said.

MARK LEVIN: So why didn´t Chairman Issa hold an investigative hearing a year ago? Why didn´t Chairman Camp, all Republicans, hold an investigative hearing a year ago, and all the other tripping over themselves right now? I´ll tell you why. Because the establishment Republicans, the RINO Republicans, despise the Tea Party. They despise the conservative movement. We exist to be managed, to be shuttled to the polling place, to vote for their candidates. The Karl Roves of the world, and all the rest of them. They fight us in the primaries, they fight us at the grassroots.

The way to prevent abortionists like convicted murderer Kermit Gosnell from occurring again is to build more Planned Parenthood clinics, Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) said at a House Judiciary Subcommittee hearing on Thursday about legislation that would prevent abortion after 20 weeks nationwide. “I would urge my colleagues to think about the extent to which he, Dr. Gosnell, represented the poor quality of health care services available in poorer communities,” Nadler said at the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice hearing. “We should be working to make sure that high quality

House Speaker John A. Boehner on Thursday flatly ruled out chances of the House passing the Senate’s immigration bill, saying his chamber will debate its own bill instead. The Ohio Republican and his top lieutenants in the party issued a joint statement that seemed designed to tamp down some of the momentum behind the Senate bill, which emerged from a committee on a bipartisan 13-5 vote this week, and to stake out a House GOP position. “While we applaud the progress made by our Senate colleagues, there are numerous ways in which

During friendly questioning from Rep. Hank “I fear that Guam will capsize!” Johnson in Congress last week, Attorney General Eric Holder offered the following statement. In regard to potential prosecution of the press for the disclosure of material. This is not something I’ve ever been involved in, heard of, or would think would be wise policy. He made that statement before the facts about the sweep on Fox News’ James Rosen were known. Since then, it’s come to light that Holder himself approved the subpoena that, among other things, named Rosen as a criminal co-conspirator.

As the saying goes, scratch a liberal and you’ll find a tyrant underneath. NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo is but the latest example. He shoved a very restrictive and ill-considered gun law through the state legislature in the dead of night. Among its flaws, the law criminalized police officers who tote firearms with magazines that hold more than seven rounds. Sheriffs around the state have objected to the law. Cuomo summoned them to the state capitol under what appears to be a false pretext, and used the meeting to threaten them into silence. Cuomo invited

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

Very excited to graduate for my master´s degree in Chicano studies! You´re never too old or too busy to continue your education!" the actress wrote on her Who Say site Wednesday, sharing loads of pics of her big day, posing with her family, cohorts and diploma.

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

Anthony Weiner’s New York mayoral candidacy was only made more improbable today after he revealed that he visited a Houston psychiatric facility following his resignation from Congress in 2011. Haunted by scandal surrounding his sexually explicit online communications with women, the Democratic former congressman sought treatment for his compulsive behavior from mental health professionals at the Gabbard Center. According to its website, the facility provides “3-day outpatient psychiatric evaluation,” particularly to “professionals who are in personal or professional crises.” While Weiner did not disclose

On “Fox News Sunday” last weekend, White House aide Dan Pfeiffer was asked about President Barack Obama’s whereabouts the night of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi. This was the night when we lost our first ambassador in 30 years, and when three other Americans were killed in an attack that lasted all night long at multiple locations within the eastern Libyan city. Since the president is commander in chief, one would think where he was and what he did during such an event would be of obvious public concern.
