I really couldn't resist picking on the mental instability of hardcore PaulBots...I may not be hopefull about our prospects for peace and prosperity, but there is a difference between working for the best and planning for the worst and giving up entirely just so you can say you were right.

Oh well, I never did think PaulBots would do anything to prevent an Obama win, so I cannot be disappointed, but no doubt my anger will multiply if that twerp from Lake Jackson gives the finger to us and goes rogue this November!

Socially, Americans are being subversively divided by the false left/right paradigm and the exploitation of artificially induced race tensions by the mainstream media.  Politically, Barack Obama’s presidential approval rating has hit all time lows, and the approval rating for Congress has hit a historic bottom.  The path our country has been set upon can only lead to disaster; that much is certain.

Yeah, right - there is no difference between right and left. ..

WTF?

There isn't a lot of difference between team Red and Team Blue in actual practice in Washington.. that I would agree to. But to say there is little difference between Freedom and Socialist Fascism is a bit of a stretch..

Rogue voting  or not, its not going to matter.  I wouldn't put it past Borat to just declare martial law if Mittens wins. Anymore it seems like he is doing his damnedest to try and get us shooting, but in the end if he has to fire the first shot he will.   Even if my worst fears about Borat don't come to pass, and  Mittens is in charge, what policies would change?   
We have our own budget deal here. Are we going to hit the wall at 90 mph or110 mph.  Romney won't step on the brake hard enough to slow us to a survivable speed - and that is assuming we could reach one in the time and space left with full brake applied, which is not at all obvious.

If the "fix" was in how would he behave what would he say or do differently?
Not one thing not one bit.  His speeches and published data would meld
seamlessly into his next administration.  'The public has spoken in overwhelming
desire for my policies.'

I recently saw this in an article somewhere, but it's most apropos.  From Shakespeare's "The Life and Death of King John" Act IV:

So foul a sky clears not without a storm

... artificially induced race tensions ...

The media is exploiting tensions that already exist.
