Five Years To Certain Death

Or at least that's what the dynamic duo of Jim "Lack Of" Talent and Bob "The Thing That Wouldn't Die" Graham would have you believe.

They were just on C-SPAN, as a matter of fact, trying to get the masses to buy into the same old, same old deal of fear and trepidation.

You knew it was coming, didn't you? I mean, there's only so much "hope" and "change" that you can "believe" in before it comes back down to Earth and you have to face the "fact" that you're going to die a very painful death.

Unless, of course, you listen to and obey the powers that be and be a good little consumer and be a good little drone.

Barack Obama's right there on the frontlines with this bullshit story, too, dispatching his "vice-president" and his "director" of "Homeland Security", which, by the way, is paramount in this incoming administration, as Barack Obama and Joe Biden repeatedly told the media on Monday.

Biden and Napolitano had a sympathetic ear, said Talent and Graham, and they assured them that this was an issue of great concern for the Obama thugs.

Too bad Graham and Talent didn't have as much success with the American people.

There were people that told them that they were outright liars, with one woman telling them that "Al-Qaeda is simple propaganda", garnering a reaction of restrained fury from Graham, who assured her that Al-Qaeda was real.

I was really hoping for the old saw of "They attacked us on September 11" but it never came, which is interesting in and of itself.

The coup de grace came when someone asked what it was that we could do to prepare for...I don't know, I guess Armageddon. That's my definition of what the caller sounded like when they were asking the question.

Graham looked as if he didn't know how to react for a split-second and then said, "That's an excellent question."

He then went on to explain, with a straight face, mind you, that you should prepare "like you would for a hurricane". So I guess water and flashlights and a backpack of items you'll need and you'll be just fine. I was really hoping for the duct tape and plastic sheeting. Remember that one, kids?

He followed that up with another laugh line when he said that this "war on terror" is a fight from citizen to citizen and, as such, if the "terrorists know that community A is more prepared than community B, they'll be more likely to attack community B".

Yes, he said that with a straight face, too.

Because everyone knows, there are no more discerning people on the planet than "terrorists".

Christ!

What I find most interesting is that this "report" comes out now, just before Obama steps foot into the Oval Office for the next four years, and Graham and Talent give this country five years to live. Or whatever it is they give us.

What happens just before those five years are up, ladies and gentlemen?

Yep, got it in one.

The "election" of 2012.

Do you like how Barack Obama has been "protecting" you? If so, mark this fake-ass ballot next to his name.

Don't like him? Well, we have an "alternative" that says he/she is going to kill more people, more efficiently than Obama has. Mark this fake-ass ballot next to his/her name.

This is something that I thought people would have learned to identify quite easily, especially given the last eight years.

And some of them have but we're a long way from understanding, as a country, just how this country really works.

Some people still think that there's such thing as freedom in this country.

We've got our work cut out for us.
