  • Obama's Third Term

    Yes, there's a new craze to compete with the birthers now it's called**Obama's Third Term**

    Can't WAIT to see how much air time this shit gets.


    If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

    The Left was all up in arms saying Bush would run for a third term too. I suppose this will get about as far as that did.

        And that Roosevelt guy...
        Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?

          Teddy stepped down for a term. Taft was a better lawyer than a politician, so Teddy ran again.

          It could be worse. You actually get a third Bush administration.

                    Bush's third term theory, circa April 2008. we have mirror-image lunatics

                    "Evil men, obsessed with ambition and unburdened by conscience, must be taken very seriously--and we must stop them before their crimes can ...


                    "Why would an administration that obtained office by nefarious and unconstitutional means believe itself to be beholden to the statutes of that same Constitutional Law that they deliberately disregarded in the first place? Essentially, at this point, after achieving the staggering and tyrannical authority that the Executive branch currently enjoys without oversight and with impunity, why would Dick Cheney and George W. Bush relinquish their power - just because the yellowed piece of paper that they've never read and like to shred says they should? Unlikely.

                    It seems to me that the machinations of the 2008 Presidential campaigns are all just an exercise in futile optimism. When an administration has such disdain for democracy abroad and has shown outright contempt for it at home, why would anyone think that once its mandated "term" has reached its limits, it'll pack up and leave town without a fight?"

                        I'm not sure I understand why anybody would want to be president for one term, much less 3.

                          I only remember it about RR, because there was a movement to get the Constitution amended.

                            You know, Bush Sr. is still eligible.
