This is the latest chapter from my book How the New Age Hijacked America:
Watching the election coverage on the eve of November 6th,2012,and while sifting through the media posturing,I noticed the emergence of what appeared to be some apparent anomalies related to the numbers. That,it turns out,was just the beginning.
Later that night,according to the jubilant media,Mitt Romney and his closest advisers were reportedly dumbfounded— “shell-shocked” was the word most often quoted relative to the emerging election night news. [1] After all Romney had been meeting with overflow audiences in the final days of the election while Obama turnouts during the same period seldom exceeded a couple thousand. The Democrat’s super hero apparently had simply morphed into a politician,and one with a mediocre record at that. Despite unusual bias and support from the media he had become clearly vulnerable.
Sure Democrats outnumbered Republicans but when it came down to it voter turnout would be the crucial issue—a fact that seemingly favored the GOP. Republican confidence also stemmed from the fact that the economy was the number one voter issue and that unemployment remained high and the economy sluggish. In fact unemployment figures did not even tell the story as many had either dispiritedly dropped out of the work force or were seriously underemployed.
This was,after all,the weakest economic recovery since the Great Depression and there was,for anyone who was taking notice,an actual threat of a second recession due to looming tax hikes along with the presidential foot on the brake of oil and gas exploration and development. Intriguingly,like his friend,Putin,Obama was already finding himself at least indirectly in control of some of the greatest wealth the world has ever known and with a rather curious agenda that could keep this nation’s entrepreneurial talent tied in knots for a generation. Republicans were reportedly and assuredly taking note.
So what happened? Of course,not everyone tracks news that requires some personal study. And besides Republicans reportedly can’t put two coherent sentences together—which makes it tough for making analysis and fine distinctions. Also Obama always had an edge with the Electoral College—an edge that had to be overcome by winning the important “swing states,” the states that had a history of voting a majority for either party depending on the current mood and the issues. But there was also in the mix a Middle America,the Silent Majority or whatever name we assign to the people who often don’t get caught up in politics until just before the election and are usually the ones that actually decide the outcome. Recent polls had shown these folks were leaning strongly in Mitt’s direction.

Just where do we stand.
ReplyDeleteI was very young when Watergate broke..I remember hours of media coverage on TV. I remember the tapes which were taped over so no one could discover what was really spoken in the Oval Office..To my knowledge there was no one killed. Then Bill Clinton was impeached and I remember him and his floundering on what was and was not the meaning of sex...I think if it feels good, and you get satisfaction or gratification..Its Sex...Here again no one was killed, but still media was involved and light was shed and shown to Americans..
Now we have Mr. O.. We have so much evidence of cover ups, false statements, contradictions.. The hiding of personal records alone should be enough to have him impeached. Who is running the USA? In this case there are lives being lost, and many many of them...
Where is the news? Papers, TV, radio..Yes we have the PC and a few credible individuals who report..But the masses are still interested in Dancing with the Stars, while America is dancing with death..
What power is really working the system? I am just an average Joe, but I can put together the fact when Benghazi was being attacked the white house was watching and doing nothing...And then tried to tell us it some poorly youtube video what caused the loss of 4 lives..?????Reality. What is the Senate doing with long drawnout dramas, that fade away when the DA is caught blatently lying along with others who are either given jobs in the private sector so they dont have to testify, or get presidential immunity...IT STINKS.... I see our constitution being destroyed, and no one doing anything about it...I think there should be a revamping of the Supreme court...No more lifers..Lets give them short terms..But again what did voting do for us this past Nov..
I cant begin to keep up with the merging of one agency into another, and the different agencies created ..There is just too much going on..Boy were our Fathers right about big government...I just think so many hands are so dirty, that one is afraid to squeel on the other...Did God ever give us the answer when he said you cannot serve both God and mammon...What do we do now? I am perplexed...Why cant Harry Reid be pressured to have both audit the Fed and the Obama impeachment heard?
