Far as I can see, you need to watch his wife more. She will put Hillary to shame. She is far more dangerous than Hillary and Hillary ran Slick Willie.
Might better get used to calling each other Komrad! From everyone according to their ability, to everyone according to their need.
We will experience the greatest redistribution of wealth this country ahs ever seen. We will experience the most aggressive gun control legislation this country has ever seen. we will see the greatest increase inj taxes this country has ever seen we will see the granting of full rights to 30 million illegal aliens in this country through free health care, free college educations, drastic increases in public asisstance and entitltement programs.
Michele OBama said "The truth is, in order to get things like universal health care and a revamped education system, then someone is going to have to give up a piece of their pie so that someone else can have more."
All in the name of "economic and social justice"
This will be a "co-presidency". You will see the use of Executive Orders on a scale never before seen to circumvent ocngress to enact their agenda. Even with the Dems controlling both houses and them wary of thier constituents, O will use htese EO's to enact the most draconian gun control among other things unilateraly.
You will be punished for being successful and working hard. Villified, demonized.
God help this country.

Ban you? Heaven forfend! Take what you say seriously? It is to laugh!
Based on what we know and can expect about BHO we Americans, especially gun-owning Americans, have some legitimate concerns. Could bad things happen? Yes. Are we going to "let" these things happen? Only to the extent that our opposition is overridden.
American freedom and democracy, and Americans' belief in same, promise to remain strong no matter who occupes the White House and the Congress. Can one make the same claims about Russia under Putin? Most likely not. I think that if they are concerned about "pathetic" and "disgusting" Russians would do well to concern themselves with matters that are a bit closer to home!

Now I realize this is a gun board, but aren't there bigger fish to fry for this guy? Do you all think that his first order of biz is to disarm us all? I did NOT vote for him, and a lot of that decision was because of his potential to infringe on by right to my hobby, but I think the economy, the wars, etc. is a lot higher on the list for him. We have to band together to stop anything like the gun control we all fear. He is not a dictator and still has to answer to a lot of people for his actions. If we implement ourselves as a check and balance with the NRA and other lobbies we have in our corner, I believe we have less to fear. Not to say we should not be vigilent in our observation of his intentions. But I think what happened yesterday was an example of what, a group can do together. We need to be just as effective as they are.

If digging into "Joe the Plumber's" background becomes common practice with the new crew on the hill - mums the word eh? ....are you referring to Joe the "I'm not a plumber, but I hope to play one on tv"?....this fraud was uncovered by the press; not the "....new crew on the hill"

Brian, I'm sure we agree on a lot of things, and I'm not trying to pick a fight, but before concluding that "We will experience the greatest redistribution of wealth this country ahs ever seen... we will see the greatest increase inj taxes this country has ever seen," it's worth taking a look at income tax rates in the U.S. from a historical perspective: http://www.taxfoundation.org/taxdata/show/151.htmlI don't like high taxes either, but it's hard to imagine even in the worst case that upper bracket rates under Obama will be anywhere near as redistributive as they were for much of the 20th century.

No, I didn't vote for him either, but he's the one we got & we must make the best of it. Make no mistake, he will be under a microscope immediately upon taking office. If he turns out to be a bad president we have only ourselves to blame for not getting out the vote for those of our beliefs. They were organized and we were not. A close friend of mine was a poll watcher here in South Carolina for the Republican side. The poll watcher for the Democrats had a list of registered Democrats. As each one voted he would cross the name off his list and late in the afternoon if there was a name there who hadn't voted someione went to pick up him or her and drive them to vote. I can't imagine the Republicans did anything like that anywhere. Voter apathy cost us this election. Hopefully we will learn from it at not too high a price.

A joke I heard on the radio: Barack Obama got in trouble with his kids when he took away 64% of their trick-or-treat candy and redistributed it to the kids who just stayed home watching TV.

Our only hope are those 44 Republican Senators still hanging on. At this moment, we have a 570 vote lead in Minnesoata, a 15,000 vote lead in Oregon with 25% left to count. Even Stevens who was just found guilty of a crime has a lead in Alaska. They are the last best hope for two years for stopping bad legislation.
