'Change has come to America'

I have a feeling that America is not going to like the changes we're about to see.

First amendment gutted... Fairness doctrine will be will be re-implemented. A more than even chance of laws being passed making it illegal to say negative things about the government.

Second amendment gutted... I suspect we will see another assault weapons ban even worse than the 1996 ban with no expiration date. As well as increased taxes on both firearms that are left legal as well as ammunition.

Socialized medicine.

Increased taxes.

401 K plans being federalized.

Highly increased electric and gas bills.

A strong push for a national ID card.

A reduced military.

More attacks by terrorist organizations.

Reparations to those that have never been slaves.

A highly liberal Federal Court system to include the Supreme Court.

These are just some of the changes that come to mind. Perhaps I am overreaching a bit and I hope that I am.

Time will tell

Do ya think that The Anointed One can really get all this done while he has a bare majority in the Senate?

I dunno, but I can promise you that the libs will try.

Destroy all that which is evil, so that which is good may flourish

Women and children are precious resources to be protected at all costs.  Men are expendable commodities whose function is to protect those resources, at all costs.

So how does it feel to know that someone's kid in the heart of america has blood on their hands to defend your rights so you can maintain a lifestyle that insults his family's existence?

Bare majority?

You need to check the numbers again.  With 4 seats still in play the Dems might end up with 60.

Or have the numbers changed in the last 10 minutes?

Let me make this clear:  I don't have kids.  I am probably going to be OK no matter what, even when (note: not "if") they subsume our 401K plans into SSI.

If the USA is stupid enough to put a child into its most important positions, I am fine as long as that first terrorist attack isn't in my immediate area.
