If we learned anything about Barack Obama in his first term it is that when he starts repeating the same idea over and over, what's on his mind is something else.
The first term's over-and-over subject was "the wealthiest 1%." Past some point, people wondered why he kept beating these half-dead horses. After the election, we knew. It was to propagandize the targeted voting base that would provide his 4% popular-vote margin of victoryvery young voters and minorities. They believed. He won.
The second-term over-and-over, elevated in his summer speech tour, is the shafting of the middle class. But the real purpose here isn't the speeches' parboiled proposals. It is what he says the shafting of the middle class is forcing him to do. It is forcing him to "act"to undertake an unprecedented exercise of presidential power in domestic policy-making. ObamaCare was legislated. In the second term, new law will come from him.
Please don't complain later that you didn't see it coming. As always, Mr. Obama states publicly what his intentions are. He is doing that now. Toward the end of his speech last week in Jacksonville, Fla., he said: "So where I can act on my own, I'm going to act on my own. I won't wait for Congress." What kind of majority in each house he needs to repeal the 22nd---just trying to predict the coming mid-terms

It won't happen through the Congress g(r)om. If it happens, the entire US Constitution will have been set aside by some national emergency. Champ is tired, lazy, and FLOTUS hates D.C...... they want out of the mess. I don't see it happening with The Hildebeast moving toward the WH.

What kind of majority in each house he needs to repeal the 22nd-
Constitutional amendments and their repeals require the consent of the states. In that part, it still is the United States of America.
The Constitution provides that an amendment may be proposed either by the Congress with a two-thirds majority vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate or by a constitutional convention called for by two-thirds of the State legislatures. A proposed amendment becomes part of the Constitution as soon as it is ratified by three-fourths of the States (38 of 50 States).

B - Agree with the video 100% Creation date was listed as 2010...things have only gotten worse. Unfortunately - with the impending immigration - "We the People" are likely to be come "We the Minority".
Things that can't continue..won't and the upcoming civil unrest when the Gov't cheese runs out will be massive...and to the NSA guy monitoring this..hope you have your place in the bunker secured...you'll need it

It's simple, he thinks he's the Parent, ad we're children.
We need to prove to him we're the adults, and he's the child, e needs to be spanked and told "Don't lie". (Or you'll get another, AND MEAN IT)

RJ, you are assuming the Cmdr. Zero would have a problem with a spanking....

Champ is tired, lazy and appears an idiot every time he opens his mouth. However, appearances can be deceiving. If, as discussed, his goal is accumulation of power---he's doing very well. After all, does Mugabe care if Zimbabwe went from exporter of food to famine, as long as he remains the head man? Did Stalin, whom the rest of Politburo once considered a country bumpkin, care that ten of millions Russians died because he decimated the officer corp just before the war?

You "Spank" Obama by restricting his priveledges, say by taking away Air Force One,
(Oh sorry, it's in for maintenance, the sequester, you know)
That's what hurts, take his privileges.

...A prediction: sometime before next spring you will see serious trial balloons coming out of major MSM outlets suggesting that we should take a look at repeal of the 22nd Amendment.
And if it happens, God help us all.

Eyes wide open, NOT Eyes wide shut.
The good news for the Bammer is that in a democracy, it is said the people = voters get the kind of Govt. they deserve [directly or indirectly].
WELL THERE YA GO - NOTHING CAN BE THE BAMMER'S OR WASHINGTON'S FAULT E-V-A-R!
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
