Prepare To Be Offended

Bill Hennessy has unlikely, although not impossible, account of a worse case scenario of an Obama presidency.

There are two primary things that could make it possible. The willingness of the MSM to ignore who he really is and what he is doing and what looks like will be a majority control of both sides of congress.

The ones that I see most plausible are:

• Obama’s minions in Congress will purge the Democrat party of moderates. Charges of “corruption” will lead to abandonment by the White House and Democrat party leaders. Joe Lieberman will high on this hit list
• Electricity rates will skyrocket, forcing the federal government to nationalize the electrical power generation and distribution industry
• Obama will announce that, due to continued economic and financial problems, the US government will permanently maintain ownership of banks
• In March 2009, the US Congress will pass a sweeping “reform” of the military, cutting military spending 25 percent, eliminating most new weapons systems in development, and forcing the retirement of most flag officers so Obama can appoint friendlier faces
• Unemployment will rise in fits and starts, eventually reaching 12 percent late in 2009
• Congress will reinstate numerous entitle programs eliminated by the Contract with America and Bill Clinton
• Congress will re-enact the “Fairness” Doctrine, making it far more onerous than the last one; Rush Limbaugh and Michael Savage will retire in the face of mounting legal bills and NCSF prosecutions
• The worsening economic depression will make internet access unaffordable for most people, driving the government to nationalize the internet, regulating content and bandwidth

What if it did happen? Nothing short of a new revolution could stop it or revert it.
