Fast Forward to 2012 if BO wins the presidency

Just some pessimism for a dreary Friday.


Fast Forward to 2012 if BO wins the presidency:

We will probably still be in Iraq. The economy won't be much better. There may be a draft (or Obama's national service for college deal). There will be fake scandal after another ala Whitewater. He will be hounded and torn to shreds and lied about in the corporate media. The GOP will block the Demz best reforms. The Demz will lose seats in 2010. The GOP will send one Impeachment bill up after another. Obama's wife will be called names and face the same thing Hillary is, if she ever tries to run for office.

Remember what goes around comes around.

(PS: I will vote for him if he gets the nominiation.)

but they won't be dying every day like they are now.

Maybe you should take a break from politics for a while...:hi:

we will have acknowledged climate change
America's reputation around the world will be strengthened
and a couple billion people around the world will see that America truly is the land of opportunity where a black man can grow up to take the highest office.

you keep tellin yourself that

the entire world (rightly or wrongly) is eying the obama candidacy with great hope

Why would anyone vote for that? :shrug:

has this happened? No, of course not, it's merely the embittered spew of a DU Hillary supporter.

and can be sure this will happen.

Christ, who's to say that the country won't go to shit under Hillary? While we're making baseless predictions, I predict that under a Hillary presidency the legislature will fight bitterly over the tiniest piece of legislation, the economy will be in a tailspin, and she will continue to appease the few war hawks left by continuing the Iraq war "in the interest of national security".

Also, people will be forced to wear duck suits, walk backward, and speak Urdu.`

sick. You have no fucking way of knowing what's going to happen in the next four years, but you'd love to have Obama be a failure. Damn the country and damn the world. You certainly don't give a damn. That's just selfish and repugnant. The tip off that you'd like to see this happen: "Remember what goes around comes around".

How old are you? Haven't you seen what the corporate media do? All the lies against Clinton, Gore, and Kerry?

You think Obama will be different.

Hell, I hope so.

But, I just think you need to be prepared.

If Obama wins the nomination, a day or two after the convention, you will start to see what the Corporatists have in store for him.

I wish him all the luck.

But you must be prepared. It will get REAL UGLY!

It's how he handles it that will matter. And I'm not quite as conspiratorial as some here. I think the media can be managed by shrewd people. Clinton, by and large, did a decent job of it.

In fact, here's EXACTLY what I've thought ...
Wouldn't it be better to just "give" Hillary the nomination ...
At least HER family can't be destroyed.
Everything and anything that could possibly be done to a First Family has ALREADY been done to the Clintons.
What more damage can the repukes do?
Whereas, with Obama ... there's nothing but HELL ahead for him and his family. This saddens me deeply.
I must admit, Hillary is HARD-CORE.
She's tuff enough, and mean enough to handle all the $#!T! She already KNOWS the ropes.
Sometimes I FEAR for Obama, and what lies ahead for his his family.
They are young and beautiful ... and really haven't suffered the VICIOUSNESS of Washington politics.

:sarcasm:

I just think the newbies who think Barack will have an easy time of it, need to be ready.

:sarcasm:

except the economy and assorted mega crises concerning population, health and global warming. That is the huge problem that cannot have an easy or painless solution. That problem is so bad that worrying about the GOP even pales by comparison. The entire geopolitical structure will be faced for the first time by someone who is not simply playing insider games that stave off responsibility(or can pretend to). he will be criticized by all sides as things must be dealt with.

The absolutest bestest economy and everything! I mean, no-one would ever blame Hillary for anything bad, now, would they?


Seriously, What happens is what happens. Whomever gets the Presidency is going to inherit a world of shite from AWOL....

OH! Yeah, much the same.

It will definitely be a mess, inherited from AWOL. And the Corporate lying media will smear any Democrat.

Again, I just want the neophyte Obama supporters to be prepared for the hell that awaits from the GOP and their Corporate shill media.

She'll pull everyone out of Iraq immidiately and leave no one else to facilitate anything?
She's less or more likely to have a draft then Obama?
She & her husband are totally incapable of scandals.. so that would never happen.. :eyes:
The GOP will open all of Hillary's proposals that they'd shoot down from Obama :eyes:
Hillary will somehow help downline dems in 2010??
Hillary's spouse won't be called names at all, umm.. maybe they'll have a tough time coming up with new ones?

Yeah.. what goes around does come around, which is why Hillary is having a tough time getting elected.

Are you pessimistic and cynical by nature. Should we not try?
Just capitulate to the dark forces of the world?

I frankly have a different vision. In 4 years, with a strong Democratic Congress and
the support of the citizens of this country, Obama will have rolled back much of the
damage that has been done by the Pukes.

Habeas corpus will protect us from our government. Our constitution will be strengthened.
Our governmental processes will be more open than in decades. The tax structure will be
more fair.

He will have a set a new agenda that is rebuilding our infrastructure, refitting our economy
with green technologies, greatly expanding the availability of health care for all of us.
He will have addressed the shortfall in Social Security and addressed Medicare.

Our image in the world, especially in the Middle East will be vastly improved.
We will be a leader in guiding the world through the climate crisis.

Guantanamo will be closed. Torture will no longer be part of our interrogations.
We will be mostly if not completely out of Iraq.

The people of New Orleans will be on their way to having their city back.

Obama with the help of the Democratic Senate will have appointed two strong
and young liberal Justices to the Supreme Court.

In other words, we will be feeling much more optimistic about our country's future
than we have in decades.

And we won't have to grab the remote every time the announcer says and now
the President of The United States.

You seem to be a student of the Bill Frist School of Psychic Projection.

RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!! OMG!!!

The Democrats WILL CONTROL CONGRESS

Incidently, I WILL VOTE FOR WHOEVER THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE IS, whether it is Hillary or Barrack,

and I will be proud to do so in either case

You would probably have much more interesting things to do than sitting in front of a computer spewing your "predictions" all over the internets.
