I agree with Natty

“We are turning into a nation of whimpering slaves to Fear—fear of war, fear of poverty, fear of random terrorism, fear of getting down-sized or fired because of the plunging economy, fear of getting evicted for bad debts or suddenly getting locked up in a military detention camp on vague charges of being a Terrorist sympathizer.”

- Hunter S. Thompson, “Extreme Behavior in Aspen,” February 3, 2003

Well, it’ll have elections of ’94-like ramifications. He knows reelection is unlikely & “they” are ramming a few things through. A viable 3rd “spoiler” party, would be beneficial for stopping things from lurching too far left, or right IMHO. Perot almost, had the ball rolling, but no avail & that giant sucking sound accelerated the process towards today’s conditions/tendencies. (also IMHO)

Ps- I predict one term presidencies for the next three cycles.

Now hold on there Natty, don’t toss all u.s. citizens into the sitting on their apathetic asses corner. Speaking for yours truly, i don’t fall into that category. Yes, i voted for change, but i didn’t vote for Obama ;D
