Title: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: Dave Gray on October 30, 2008, 11:47:22 am Many of you are convinced that he's a Socialist-terrorist-Marxist-racist-Communist-Anti-American-Muslim. So, instead of running around like Chicken Little, trying to scare everyone into voting for the other guy, why not put some actual predictions about what you think will happen if he's elected?
Do you think he's going to turn the nukes towards us? Is he the anti-Christ, and will battle God here on Earth, bringing about the Rapture? Will he destroy Israel? Will the economy full farther into ruin? Will gays take over? Will he put Jeremiah Wright on the $1 bill? Seriously. I'd like to know what you guys are so afraid of.

From one of those emails that annoying people forward you.Quote How long is the beast allowed to have authority in Revelations? Revelations Chapter 13 tells us it is 42 months, and you know what that is. Almost a four-year term of a Presidency. All I can say is "Lord, Have mercy on us!" According to The Book of Revelations the anti-Christ is: The anti-Christ will be a man, in his 40's, of MUSLIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal....the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything.. Do we recognize this description?? I STRONGLY URGE each one of you to post this as many times as you can! Each opportunity that you have to send it to a friend or media outlet..do it! I refuse to take a chance on this unknown candidate who came out of nowhere. From: Dr. John Tisdale Dear Friends, As I was listening to a news program last night, I watched in horror as Barack Obama made the statement with pride. . ."we are no longer a Christian nation; we are now a nation of Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, . . .." As with so many other statements I've heard him (and his wife) make, I never thought I'd see the day that I'd hear something like that from a presidential candidate in this nation. To think our forefathers fought and died for the right for our nation to be a Christian nation--and to have this man say with pride that we are no longer that. How far this nation has come from what our founding fathers intended it to be. I hope that each of you will do what I'm doing now--send your concerns, written simply and sincerely, to the Christians on your email list. With God's help, and He is still in control of this nation and all else, we can show this man and the world in November that we are, indeed, still a Christian nation! Please pray for our nation! ::) Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: run_to_win on October 30, 2008, 12:07:54 pm Will he destroy Israel?

He did say that he would reduce our military. We might not be able to act if something like an attack on Israel were to happen. Also, if you think gas prices were high before, think about what would happen if Israel attacked Iran. And, I'd bet money that if Obama wins, they will attack Iran before he takes office.

I mean militarily. The answer is sorta once. In exchange for Israel not defending herself against attacks by Iraq during the Gulf War I, the USA attacked the Iraqi scuds that were being fired at Israel. At the time the USA was already engaged in a war with Iraq. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected.

That worked really well for Sarah Palin's daughter. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: Dave Gray on October 30, 2008, 12:48:47 pm Here's what I honestly think will happen.
- The economy will improve. Part of this will be because Obama's tax plan will give relief to those who need it most right now, but another part will be because of the cyclical nature of the economy. - Our standing will improve in the world. As Obama is very popular with foreign citizens, foreign leaders will be more likely to be supportive of the US. Some anti-American sentiment will diminish. - Another terrorist attack is certainly a possibility (under either new president), as again, the cyclical nature of stuff like this happens. To blame (or credit) Obama or McCain (or Bush) for a terrorist attack during their tenure would be unfair. - Racial tensions will ease in this country, and a more open and honest dialogue about race will be on the table. - There will be no change to our relationship with Israel. - Obama will have to ditch some of the programs he's proposed, because the economy will not allow for as much spending in the short term. - Laws on abortion and gay marriage will likely remain unchanged during his term, as this is really decided by the people and not the president. However, these things are inevitable in my opinion, with next generation becoming more and more accepting of gay lifestyles, and Obama may appoint judges that will lay the groundwork for this to happen in 10 years. Abortion will not change, because people support it and it's protected by a prior court case, which is difficult to overturn. - Gun Control will remain largely unchanged, with the possibility of small limitations, like waiting times, background checks, etc. - Obama will adopt the Clinton-era tactics for fighting terrorism -- no declaration or occupation, but a steady state of targeted bombings, special ops missions, undercover agents, etc. It's cheaper and out of the public eye. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on October 30, 2008, 12:49:05 pm Don't mean sell arms? Is is not a bunch of bullies in a school yard. Everyone knows we are tied at the Hip with Israel. But World politics does not work by us beating someone up in their defense. We taught them to Fish so we don't have to feed them. USA also sells arms to Israel's enemies. USA has mutual defense pacts with many counties, Israel is not one of them. USA did not "teach Israel to fish." In fact prior to Israel's win in '67 the USA sold Israel very little military equipment. Israel learned to fought cause their life depended on it. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected.

Schools will continue to suck due to student as well as teacher apathy. We will pull out of Iraq at some point. The economy will make a slow progression upwards.

You have every right to either homeschool your children or send them to a private school. And because Dave is being a whiny beyotch, I'll make some predictions: 1. The economy will begin to turn around. (I actually think this is going to happen regarless.) 2. Our troops will get out of Iraq. 3. There will be another terrorist attack. I think this is going to happen no matter what. They always like to test a new president. 4. Racial tensions will get worse. 5. There will be a couple of attempts on Obama's life. 6. We get back some respect on the international tip. 7. Rush Limbaugh is finally out of a job. 8. Palin returns to Alaska NEVER to be heard from again.

Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: Buddhagirl on October 30, 2008, 01:17:16 pm How about teaching your daughter about a better form of birth control than a condom......... the word "NO" First and foremost, why is it that we tend to think that only teenagers need abortion. There are adult women that need abortion for legitimate reasons, too. And as we've seen teaching them to say no does not work. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: Dave Gray on October 30, 2008, 01:18:09 pm I would also like to add that I think an Obama presidency would be the rebirth of conservative media. Fox is losing ground to MSNBC, because it's easier to rag on the party that's in power. I'm frankly surprised that Rush, Hannity, and Beck have been able to last in an environment like this for so long. They'll be stronger than ever.
Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: CF DolFan on October 30, 2008, 01:25:29 pm I've listened to them more in the last few weeks than ever but they give it to Bush too. In fact ... if you turn on the radio at the right time and didn't know better you may not know that they are supporting McCain.
Let's be honest ... there is only so much of Rush, Hannity, Oberman, and a Chris Mathews that anyone can take. Thank God things aren't as bad as any one of them make it out to be. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: Dave Gray on October 30, 2008, 01:29:05 pm I reject putting Chris Matthews in that group. Rush, Hannity, Olberman....total spinners. But not Matthews.
He likes Obama in this election, but he did support and vote for Bush, and he started out as a Republican, then later campaigned for Democrats. I believe that he is a true independent voice. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on October 30, 2008, 01:29:49 pm I would add to my other predictions:
At some point during an Obama administration Chad Henne will become the starting QB for the Dolphins. Madonna will be photographed at least once without underwear. Old folks will move to Florida and Arizona when they retire. ESPN will do a story declaring Bill Belichick the worst dress NFL head coach Yankee fans and Red Soxes fans will clash in fights that lead in violence on several occasions. Fox News will call the New York Times a liberal rag. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: DolFan619 on October 30, 2008, 02:23:07 pm 1.

2. There will be a very deep and long recession. 3. Obama Bin Laden will get impeached. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: ethurst2 on October 30, 2008, 02:46:43 pm I'm not afraid of anything. It's all in the Grand Scheme of things.
Politicians cater to the mass consciousness of the people and right now, America is operating on empty. It could have been McCain, Rommey, Huckabee or anyone else. As the mass consciousness goes, the politicians follow it. It's not the other way around. It does matter who is in office...there are plans to bring the system of living in America to it's knees. I expect the country to crash on the economic front which would usher in more government control over the economy and make the USA slaves to other countries, such as borrowing money etc. A lot of industries are falling, so this next President will COMPLETE the fall of the system. We've already seen the Constitution ignored on several levels. But if this country falls, it's a good thing. It's going to force people to be creative, independent and put more trust and faith in themselves and what they are doing instead of stuff coming out of the White House. Obama cannot change ONE thing. The powers that be know that they need a rhetorical President that talks smooth enough to make the appearance that he's doing something when he's just shuffling chairs. McCain is too old for the job and he's just "Biden" his time. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: Defense54 on October 30, 2008, 02:50:31 pm Yeah.

Part of this will be because Obama's tax plan will give relief to those who need it most right now, but another part will be because of the cyclical nature of the economy. Giving free money to people will not improve the economy. It will be great for the people who do not pay income taxes already. - Our standing will improve in the world. As Obama is very popular with foreign citizens, foreign leaders will be more likely to be supportive of the US. Some anti-American sentiment will diminish. Hamas endorsed him. So yea for us.- Another terrorist attack is certainly a possibility (under either new president), as again, the cyclical nature of stuff like this happens. To blame (or credit) Obama or McCain (or Bush) for a terrorist attack during their tenure would be unfair. IMO there will be a more likely terrorist attack because the fear of repercussions will be lower. They already know what McCain will do.- Racial tensions will ease in this country, and a more open and honest dialogue about race will be on the table. Will change nothing. Bigots will still be bigots. On both sides I might add.- There will be no change to our relationship with Israel. Not 100% sure on that. Odds probably not.- Obama will have to ditch some of the programs he's proposed, because the economy will not allow for as much spending in the short term. Lets hope so. Universal health care is a bottomless pit. - Laws on abortion and gay marriage will likely remain unchanged during his term, as this is really decided by the people and not the president.

1. Taking troops out of Iraq - Good luck with that one. If everyone stopped listening to the doctored media that we get, you'll find out that the whole thing in Iraq is not about liberation, it's about big business and having a bigger presence of American business in the region. Pat Tillman was murdered at point blank range because he was going to reveal that they were over there protecting American contractors and no one has asked the question..."What are American contractors doing in a War Zone?" You think those lobbyists (business) that have a claim or stake in that region with their business are going to allow McCain or Obama authorize a pull out? You'll get a staged "pullout". You've just got to know what stock footage that the network is using ( see Vietnam) when they give you images of soldiers coming back home. 2. The Economy - When you have the Dow that drops 900 points and then come back up 900 points, that should tell you one thing. The powers that be can manipulate the economy and you. For example, it was reported that Indy Mac went under. Indy Mac did not go under, as a matter of fact, they kept hiring people. My condo loan was through Indy Mac and they offered to put me under an ARM stating that the economy was bad and that was the best way to go. B.S. The big wheels that delve in mortgage investments created a scenario and got paid off of people's fears. The economy is going to hell in a handbasket. Nothing Obama can do about that. 3. The Banks and the FRB - This is a laugher. What can Obama or McCain do to possible stop these guys from printing money that's not backed by anything and selling that money to banks, inflating the worth of useless money? You think Obama is going to say, printing money not backed by anything or just making it up out of thin air is illegal? 4. Universal Health Care - These doctors are making a killing with these phony HMO's. Do you think that the doctors or anyone wants to go to a universal health care system in which the quality of services coming from the doctor might be bad? In the inner cities, which was the testing ground, there has been that kind of system in place for years and the results are stunningly bad. Get a card from WIC, the hospital system, and for certain things, get it cared for and the cost goes to the taxpayer. The Doctor get's triple the payment of money from the government and sometimes it's shoddy work. Obama will take that program model and try to ensure that every state has a working model that has no quality at all. Universal Health care plans will die out fast and we'll still have people that can't get access to anything. 5. The People - Americans have become lazy, incoherent, unable to concentrate and have lost respect for themselves and struggle with creativity and having a work ethic. Obama is going to seize that and say that the government will take care of you. Under anyone that gets in the White House, you can kiss the last of your parental rights goodbye. They are trying to make your children property of the State. 6. Jobs - The mantra should be "create more small business opportunities for the lower and middle class" but for some reason, there is someone pulling the levers that don't like that idea because it breeds "competition". Jobs, Baby, Jobs?" What about "Ownership baby! Ownership". And I thought that Al Davis was on crack. There will be a scarcity of jobs in the coming future. No one is talking OWNERSHIP and control of their personal future but are instead given some bogus tools to keep them in bondage. Obama can't promise you jobs because corporations tell him what to do. It's not the other way around. America needs a makeover and it doesn't start with a politician. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected.

(http://www.ruralwomyn.net/rape_rural.html)Quote Alaska's Rape Rates Double the National Average While rural areas overall may have lower reporting rates, Alaska's rates are more than double the U.S. average. Alaska, where 90 percent of the state cannot be reached by a road system, in 1999 reported 83.5 rapes per 100,000 females compared to a U.S. average of 32.7 per 100,000 females, according to the FBI's Uniform Crime Reports.

Schools will continue to suck due to student as well as teacher apathy. Which will incite them to flush more money through a failing system. We'll up around $20,000 per year per child by 2012We will pull out of Iraq at some point. That date is already being specifically discussed but no doubt the man in charge when it happens will get credit. The economy will make a slow progression upwards. I'm not seeing this.

Only the Palestinian leadership because they realize that once they get a homeland then they have less to constantly bitch about. Arab-Israeli peace was one of Yassar Arafat's biggest fears!

Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: bsmooth on October 30, 2008, 10:56:00 pm Nothings going to change, it's going to get worse. 1. Taking troops out of Iraq - Good luck with that one. If everyone stopped listening to the doctored media that we get, you'll find out that the whole thing in Iraq is not about liberation, it's about big business and having a bigger presence of American business in the region. Pat Tillman was murdered at point blank range because he was going to reveal that they were over there protecting American contractors and no one has asked the question..."What are American contractors doing in a War Zone?" You think those lobbyists (business) that have a claim or stake in that region with their business are going to allow McCain or Obama authorize a pull out? You'll get a staged "pullout". You've just got to know what stock footage that the network is using ( see Vietnam) when they give you images of soldiers coming back home. 2. The Economy - When you have the Dow that drops 900 points and then come back up 900 points, that should tell you one thing. The powers that be can manipulate the economy and you. For example, it was reported that Indy Mac went under. Indy Mac did not go under, as a matter of fact, they kept hiring people.

Hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions; fed with the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, heal'd by the same means, warm'd and cool'd by the same winter and summer as a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? If we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that. ----- I think there is the same stereotypes that all Jews think certain way just like the stereotype that blacks all think alike and being Defense's political views don't always conform to your stereotype of Jewish political thought you assumed he could not be a Jew. Or maybe it is because he is a cop. And ALL Jews are doctors or lawyers and there are absolutely no Jewish cops. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: Buddhagirl on October 31, 2008, 02:48:38 pm Didn't know I was a Christian. I'll have to let my Rabbi know........... ::) But you avoided the question ............again.......... ::) I never said you were christian. I was making an example. There are numerous ways to make sure a child is socialized. Going to a public school isn't the only way. Private school can do the same thing, as well as having your child in extra-cirricular activities and community involvement. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: run_to_win on October 31, 2008, 02:52:11 pm I don't believe my tax dollars should fund two school systems. How about just one school system that focuses on basic education and leaves the political correctness for the private schools? My tax dollars pay (in part) for public buses. Where I live the transit system as over 20x the funding per rider (3% of the commutes but over 60% of the funding). We support buses because they're flexible. However, every year, without fail, they try to force light rail to nowhere down our throats. Of course, the nice neighborhoods have too much influence to allow light rail in so it's proposed to go down the middle of the street through the most crime ridden neighborhoods. Based on LA's system, about 15 people will be hit by the train each year. My tax dollars pay for public pools and parks. Not a lot of politics being taught at pools and parks. If there is a problem the police are in charge, not some liberal administrator.[/quote] Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: Dphins4me on October 31, 2008, 03:57:26 pm This thought runs along the same lines of, "I have no money. I want a tv. I'll charge the tv and worry about how to pay for it later." Hardly. Obviously you have no concept of the cost of children. Its not a couple of thousand dollars.And, I'm sure some of the welfare recipients you WHINE about think along the same lines. Nope, welfare recipients get more money for having babies, slightly different than actually paying for them.BS. Everyone calls liberals whiny. And? Everyone? Never have I. Nor have I ever called a liberal Unpatriotic.Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: Buddhagirl on October 31, 2008, 04:06:41 pm Hardly. Obviously you have no concept of the cost of children. Its not a couple of thousand dollars. Actually, I have seen the staggering numbers. What would make you think I haven't? Just because I don't have any? That's part of the reason I don't have any. I can't afford to raise them the way I would want to. So do you just blindly go in having children hoping that the numbers somehow work themselves out? If you can't afford to raise your children the way you want them raised, then why did you have them? Why should the public have to subsidize for you to put your children into the school you want? Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: Dphins4me on October 31, 2008, 05:50:16 pm Actually, I have seen the staggering numbers. What would make you think I haven't? The way you speak about it would tend to lead someone to think that way. Just because I don't have any? That's part of the reason I don't have any. I can't afford to raise them the way I would want to. Very few actually can.So do you just blindly go in having children hoping that the numbers somehow work themselves out? If you can't afford to raise your children the way you want them raised, then why did you have them? No, but as I have said. If you wait till you have an extra million bucks laying around to raise a child, then you will never have any.Very few raise a child the way they truly want to. I'd love for me & my wife to both be here 24/7 with them. However, I pay my bills & do not depend on a politician to raise taxes on others to pay them for me. Quick question. You are all for raising taxes on people to provide for others. How would you like it this tax increase. Some politicians decides that they want to raise the taxes on childless people & give more of a tax break to people with kids. Would you be for that? Why should the public have to subsidize for you to put your children into the school you want? Not asking for public to subsidize me.. I'm asking for my part back, no one elses.I can handle the difference. Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected. Post by: Buddhagirl on October 31, 2008, 06:08:13 pm Quick question.

Some politicians decides that they want to raise the taxes on childless people & give more of a tax break to people with kids. I've never said that I'm for or against taxes. I'm quite indifferent on taxes. I vote based on totally different things. I see taxes as the cost of doing business. Quote Not asking for public to subsidize me..

No. I say that if we're going to increase someones it might as well be them. However, I don't sit here bellyaching about who pays what. Appsarently, it's all you worry about.

Why do I get the feeling you preach helping others, but donate little time or money to charity. However, I don't sit here bellyaching about who pays what. Appsarently, it's all you worry about. Its not all I concern myself with, but I see the writing on the wall with this stuff also. The tax system should not be used to buy votes. So is yours, so stop your whining. Mine is going to help educate my children, since I have kids in schoolFunny, you are all for helping others until someone ask for help, then you start preaching about whining & how they made their choice. However, you total ignore that the people you think deserve money made by others is right. How far does your hypocrisy go? Title: Re: Predict what happens if Obama is elected.
