At least, according to Focus on the Family, we are.

Among their predictions are...

  • Terrorist strikes on four American cities.
  • Russia rolling into Eastern Europe.
  • Israel hit by a nuclear bomb.
  • Gay marriage in every state.
  • The end of the Boy Scouts.

I'm surprised they omitted

  • Cats and dogs living together.

You left out "mandatory abortions" and a "mark of the beast stamp".

I'm confident that the Obama administration will make things simple, and we'll have one stop 'shopping', where you'll be able to

  1. get your mandatory abortions
  2. be tattooed with the mark of the beast
  3. let ACORN register you to vote 87 times
  4. drop off all your income
  5. marry someone of your own gender, whilst your cat and dog look on approvingly

We are doomed

Obama is a socialist pig who just wants to tear this nation apart! When Obama anounced he was running for president all I thought was "here comes the next Jimmy Carter"...I was wrong, this guys the next Adolf Hitler!All Obamas going to lead to is Communisim, And peole have to be crazy to vote for someone who has had no background in the military!Johb McCain isn't the greatest thing to walk this earth either,but at least he's fought and knows how it is to face the enemy,the only time Obama wants to face the enemy is when he meets them for some party,..I really wish the New York Times would release that tape of Obama giving a speach to those terrorists then maybe people would see they are about to elect the worst president this country could ever have!

Poor Scared: I know just how

Poor Scared:

I know just how you feel.

Eight years ago, I was afraid a Bush administration would mean we'd see a sharp increase in terrorism, including attacks inside the USA; the beginning of endless, bloody overseas entanglements; disastrous environmental policies; the destruction of our economy; a corrupt, ineffective educational policy; the politicization of the Justice Department; an increasingly authoritarian judiciary and a continued slide toward theocracy.

Crazy, wasn't I?

Two corrections

There's plenty of places I could correct you, but I'll let others join the fun, and just correct you twice.

  1. Its the Los Angeles Times, not the New York Times, that refuses to release the tape
  2. The terrorist you refer to also received a $600,000 grant from a group headed by that known terrorist-lover John McCain

Oh, and one general bit of advice... learn to spell.

I must also add this

I must also add this observation. I took Obama's victory speech message of reconciliation to heart. I feel that this is not the time to be rubbing anyone's nose in it, because that's not the way forward.

But as we are seeing here and elsewhere, and as we have seen time and again, you can't negotiate with dead-enders.

Which is why I like this story currently making the rounds...

Obama's Knife-Wielding Political Killer

...the definitive Rahm Emanuel story takes place in Little Rock, Ark., in the heady days after Bill Clinton was first elected President.

It was there that Emanuel, then Clinton's chief fund-raiser, repaired with George Stephanopoulos, Mandy Grunwald and other aides to Doe's, the campaign hangout. Revenge was heavy in the air as the group discussed the enemies - Democrats, Republicans, members of the press - who wronged them during the 1992 campaign. Clifford Jackson, the ex-friend of the President and peddler of the Clinton draft-dodging stories, was high on the list. So was William Donald Schaefer, then the Governor of Maryland and a Democrat who endorsed George Bush. Nathan Landow, the fund-raiser who backed the candidacy of Paul Tsongas, made it, too.

Suddenly Emanuel grabbed his steak knife and, as those who were there remember it, shouted out the name of another enemy, lifted the knife, then brought it down with full force into the table.

"Dead!" he screamed.

Obama may be bringing a knife to the gunfight, but he's also bringing out street fighters and the long knives to whittle away the dead-enders. It's now up to the dead-enders to decide whether they want a role in future history, or instead prefer being an embarrassing footnote.

Damn, I can't believe I just wrote that. But you get the idea.

Uh, as someone who has been

Uh, as someone who has been through the FBI background check and passed, I can tell you that knowing people who were 1960s radicals is not a disqualification on the FBI background check.

Knowing is one thing,

Knowing is one thing, associating is another. You're not the only person to have passed a federal background check.

Lots of people can pass a background check done by the FBI. However, passing one for an employment position with the FBI and having associations with "radicals," would be a hindrance to getting a job with them. There are two different issues here and that should be clarified.

MDB's picture

So, then, what if someone

So, then, what if someone had been an actual member of the Socialist Party of America? Does that qualify them as having radical associations? Does that disqualify them from a position requiring access to sensitive information?

If you answered "yes", then congratulations, you just disqualified Jeane Kirkpatrick from serving as Reagan's Ambassador to the United Nations.

metulj's picture

As a matter of fact, they

As a matter of fact, they can't take your past associations into account as it violates your right to free associations. I asked if they were going to take that stuff into account and they said that what really worried them is whether or not you lied about it. They also ask you if you did drugs. If you say no and they know you had, you don't move on. It's all about trust not association. That distinction seems to escape certain people. See the Bill Ayers non-controversy.

MDB's picture

Honesty is the key factor

You're exactly right.

I've been through a background check, too, and what matter is

  1. That you're honest about anything questionable in your past.
  2. What you're currently doing.

And for what its worth, one web site (politifact or factcheck, not just some blog) I saw that discusses the "no security clearance for Obama" claim says that not only would Obama's past associations not be an issue, the Federal agencies would be thrilled to have a bright, Harvard educated attorney apply there. They wouldn't reject him; they'd fight over who gets to hire him.

That's not true, and, unlike you, I can actually provide a citation to back it up.

Yeah, right

I am sure the FBI would just love to comment on the President Elect's ability to get a job there.

I know that Bush administration has convinced you wingnuts that politicizing non-partisan Federal agencies is just fine dandy, but there are limits.

On the other paw, if you actually do call the the FBI, once they finish telling you to buzz off, why don't you also ask them if either of these two people would qualify for a job there

  1. had a drinking problem, with a DUI arrest, and had regularly used cocaine, before 1973
  2. accidentally shot someone, possibly while drunk
