Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.

When elected, Obama was inexperienced: Most of his career in government was in the Illinois State Senate, with only a couple of years experience in the U.S. Senate, most of which he spent running for president. He had no private-sector experience, no executive experience (beyond the Harvard Law Review) and little knowledge of the United States beyond the major metropolitan areas of New York, Boston and Chicago.

None of this is new. It was known before the 2008 election, covered up and ignored by the LSM. Obama is a fraud and always has been. The next 3 months of his lame duck presidency are not going to be good.

When Hope and Change became Spite and Revenge

am I the only one to see that the two themes were one and the same back in 2008?

I think I’m going to take off my “I voted” sticker. Maybe the LIV Dem voters will forget it’s election day and skip it.

Drudge reporting all sorts of black Democrat voting place illegality. Our system of government-enabled lawlessness for retarded Democrats on display.

Obama facilitating it all and encouraging insanity. He needs to go now.

It would have been a miracle if he had turned out to be competent.

That’s pretty much what 2008′s Obama promised the voters.

And, God help us, they bought it.

When Romney wins Palinistas lose, big time!

Seriously, the woman is dreadful for the right. She can’t even manage to run her own website. The idea that she donated 5K to Romney in the last days of the campaign is a joke, as is she.

Welcome President-Elect Romney. Good-bye Snowgrifter and Jug Ears. We get to engage America with a clean-slate.

GOP is back! Get out of the way.

But Barry didn’t really WANT to be mean and nasty. It’s not in his nature. He’s such a super-sweet guy. You could tell from the way he was dishing out the spite and revenge that his heart simply wasn’t in it. How sad, this cool and measured man being forced to act in a manner so foreign to him.

In “The Godfather”, the tagline was, “It’s not personal, it’s business”. Even though it often was personal. With Obama, it’s very often personal. Revenge, class warfare, race-baiting, crony capitalism and executive orders and selective prosecution over the rule of law. A good liberal friend of mine thinks people are against Obama because they envy him. Personal sentiment isn’t a basis for good government. The rule of law is, backed up by the Constitution. Everyone is equal under the law. Equal opportunity, equal protection, equal rights. When we go Obama’s way, the way of sentiment, then we become a third world country, a nation of men, not of laws. Who you know rather than what is right.

Revenge of the Black Panthers. Not good.
In Phila, where a small margin could make the difference between winning or losing PA, and thus of winning or losing the election, we have Repub poll observers being forcibly removed while BPanther intimidation is sanctioned by O, Hope & Change Obama murals in the interior of polling places, and women in the booth assisting others on how to vote for O (and this could tantamount to intimidation if the voter actually wanted to vote for Romney!!!). And here we have the dim Dems like Dean hollering that it is only through fraud that Mr. Worse that Carter could lose.
And this country is bitterly divided like never before. Our only hope perhaps is to have a bi-partisan conciliating president like Romney who hopefully can bring people together, not O that bitterly pits everyone against each other. One would think that it would be very difficult for this country to endure another term of the divisive O without civil disruption. God help us. Vote Romney.

When I cast my vote for Mitt this morning, a small part of me did it out of revenge. The rest of me did it out of love of family, God, and country!

Another storm about to hit the already totally east coast:( I wonder if zero will be watching the returns with friends and family, as these peaple continue to struggle and die?

I’m not going to pull a Yahoo news director and say he likes to party when white people drown… but the temptation is there to smash that back in their faces..

I full expect Obama will be briefed on the storms.. I also expect he won’t much care about their plight, with his own political future burning in ruins around him.

I doubt he wishes any storm victim ill… I also doubt he’s considerate enough to think about them at all.

There’s no photo op for him to exploit.

Ed, did you see the full video of his remark? You’re taking it out of context.
Obama has suggested only a small increase in taxes on the wealthy, nothing more than the rates paid under Clinton. You don’t need to go full-on Glenn Beck and start imagining an assault on the American way of life.

Barack Hussein Obama, budget-balancer extraordinaire, huh?

No one with a properly functioning mind would trust such a lying dunce with anything related to economics.

The front page picture also comes via Instapundit from Cagle Cartoons, and seems very apropos for today.

Excellent. Now if only the artist could have captured that “don’ whup me massuh” fake southern black accent, it would be perfect.

Perhaps Obama was caught by surprise that the majority of voters didn’t view Romney with the same level of disdain,

When you function with the kind of personal hatred for anyone who doesn’t hold the exact same hard left ideology as you, like Obama has… it’s no surprise he’s in such a bubble of yes men and hate spewing leftists, he really doesn’t “get” that he’s so far out on a left wing branch,…. that most rational people are stunned he acts so much like a hateful petty child.

He’s always been about hating Americans who make it.. folks just didn’t see it till now.

He’s swallowed the third worlds anti-Americanism whole, the liberation Marxist theory… the contempt the socialists have for Americans and our attitudes.. he completely hates normal Americans, he may hide most of it.. but it’s there..

You can see if you look..

Hate is his primary motivation.. it’s all he’s got.
