Looking back at the things that didn't happen this year...

1. President Obama didn't go around from door to door taking away peoples' guns.
2. William Ayers did not become chief of staff.
3. The FEMA death camps didn't materialize.
4. The increase in the money supply did not cause hyperinflation.
5. We didn't abandon the US dollar and start buying groceries with gold.
6. ACORN didn't take over my neighborhood and force us all into prostitution.
7. Obama didn't show much enthusiasm for anything that resembled socialism.
8. We did not become a large colony of Kenya.
9. Angry black president didn't retaliate against us for slavery.
10. Nobody has been heard to say, "I miss George W. Bush".

2. Agree with all except #7..

This HCR Bill: 45,000,000 Get CHC-Single-Payer Vermont Health Care

He may not have ever proclaimed "socialism!", but he supports Sanders' contribution to the HCR Bill.

3. What about the Public Option? That

didn't happen this year, either.

And since the players will stay the same, there's no reason to think it'll happen next year either.

4. That none of those things happened (and never will) hardly matters to right-wingers;

the possibility that these things *COULD* happen (just like the possiblity that I *could* marry Rose McGowan) is enough to keep their anti-Obama passions burning.. and some fires can go on for a long time-
