Well that wasn´t hard. They had 4 days to invent more votes for Barak Hussein Obama. It was the sneaking in of two ballots for every one Dem that voted in real time that was hard.

The democrats were way too calm before and during the election. I do believe the fix was in with millions of fraudulent votes, in every swing state, well before the election. Some precincts in Philly showed 99% voted for Obama, with 100% turn out. Since when does any precinct get that high of a turnout without fraud? Add in what is happening now with Alan West...obviously voter fraud and they are not even trying to hide it...sigh. I don´t know that conservatives can ever win another election at this rate. They´ve figured out how to perfect fraud :-(

I maintain that if the win had been big enough, they couldn´t have cheated their way to a win. And God help us, but they may not have needed to anyway. I am at a loss for words to explain my utter sadness over the loss of this country. Because no matter what happens now, I don´t see any way that the US is finished. Another thing the election does is seal the US position of being against Israel. God is not happy. I am just sick. But it is what it is. I shall plan accordingly, trusting the Lord to give me wisdom and to take care of my family wherever He takes us. :heavysigh:

Fine. No more trips to Florida for me. No Disney. Hope they enjoy the loss of tourist revenue when the price of gas goes up. When it comes to a choice of food and utilities at home, people will choose necessities over a trip to Disney or the beach.

#10 - Obama´s end game is only the destruction of Israel. Nothing else motivates him. Nothing. He could care less about the US economy or our healthcare. Our economic demise is only his means to his determined end of demolishing our military. Obama´s must make our military a paper tiger. This will permit him to accomplish the destruction of Israel. This is why he has been toppling middle east dictators. He wants to establish the caliphate which can work as one to destroy Israel.

Stories like the ones coming out of Philadelphia make one wonder how the media can possibly be this openly deceitful. They report 99% voter turnout for Zero as if is demonstrates and effective "get out the vote" effort instead of the obvious fact that those numbers are absolute, concrete evidence of voter fraud.

The trick is the early voting process. The democrats can count those early votes, and they know how hard they have to push their constituents to vote, even several times if necessary. The dirty secret of hanging chads in 2000, in florida, was that the only way a hanging chad could have existed was when the fraudsters, trying to manufacture fraudulent votes as efficiently as possible, jammed extra cards into those card holders, and when they pushed the pin through, the bottom most card wound up with a faint mark or a hanging chad. And they found one of those machines in the trunk of an election worker, remember?

I agree. Romney should have immediately called for a national recount and impounding the voting machines. The Dems were way too smug all Summer long and running into the election. Additionally, the MSM kept putting up bogus poll numbers that were surprising close to the final outcome. This whole election stinks......

You will never convince me the won is the winner. What an election. 2 states legalized marajuana, one state authorized the taxpayer to pay for sex changes, one person gets elected who hide for 6 months, one person gets elected who was just released from jail... days after the election it was revealed Iran shot our drone on Nov 1st, Patraus is having an affair for years, but news is released after the election... the unions spent 1/2 billion $$$ on the election... abccbsnbccnn WP NY Times gave the won no negative coverage, they should be listed as donors.

I know it´s cold comfort my friends, but history shows us that things have a way of turning on liars and cheats. He now has to govern an electorate that did not elect him. Americans are not like other people around the world. Even the majority of our illegal immigrants are more inspired by the freedom this country offers than their friend/family left behind. I think we will be a force to reckon with. Does he have the stones? Does the press really have his back now that he has won? Oh, and I just saw my first Hillary bumper sticker. It´s already begun folks and she is not to be trusted by Obama either. He may encounter another hurricane Sandy before his term is up.

#21 Absoultely Agree! The past 4 years I have notated the comments on blogs and they were all trending against Zero the closer we got to the election. Newspapers were endorsing Romney, high-profile people were dumping on Zero, polls showed Americans think the country was moving in wrong direction, polls showing Americans hate Obamacare, etc.
In Michigan, we had ballot proposals regarding collective bargaining issues and they were all defeated. The trending over the last few years seemed to be getting back to our conservative roots - people going against the Unions, supporting pro-life businesses, making hard work a positive thing...and in the end he Wins??!
And I don´t hear one peep about any possible cheating even though the Black Panthers were out again, thugs were physically removing GOP monitors from polling stations, voting machines were giving Obama Romney votes, etc, etc. I guess the new meme in the country is cheat as much as you can in any aspect of life but perfect it so as not to get caught.

Thank you Milquetoast Milt for being another "moderate" Pubbie loser.
Thank you for never mentioning Benghazi, Fast & Furious, Eric Holder, or Van Jones - - among many others - - in your feckless campaign.
And finally - - thank you to the Romneybots who trashed all the other Pubbie contenders and their followers - - and who forced the Pubbie nominating campaign to become a personal mud-slinging contest.
Thank you for four more years of the criminal, commie Zippy administration. Gotta love those "moderate" Pubbies!

1. Republican vote total down 10 million from 2008? Oh? After the Chik-fil-A turnouts? 2. Absurd Democrat "turnout" figures demand to be investigated. However.... 3. The crimes involved in handling the military votes alone demand an outraged scorched-earth investigation and prosecutions. 4. #20, #22: please take a close look at how little the Dems actually won before donating half of what we built to them. The Patriot Post ran a map [Congressional districts?] showing a sprinkling of Leftist-won places scattered around. 5. Last, and maybe most importantly -- snap out of it, people. Yeah, it stinks. Yeah, the probability of criminal vote fraud is likely 100%. Yeah, it means all kinds of problems and trouble. But if all that adds up to for you is concluding "America is lost," and you´ve thrown up your hands, surrendering preemptively, saying America isn´t worth fighting for [yes, that´s what you´re saying], well, thank you for playing, and we have a nice parting gift for you. But don´t dawdle, ´K? Some of us love America, this magnificent achievement of humanity, and love our families. We´re getting to work. Now. See ya.

#26 has factual information. I read a long detailed investigative piece in WA Times three months ago about SOS, Spain, etc. This is not tinfoil hat stuff. Romney never had a chance. I realize that now. The voter fraud machine, ACORN by another name(s) and complicit Republicans (by their silence and cowardice) are to blame.

Someday, many years from now, after the citizens win freedom from the Marxist government in the second Revolution, historians will find conclusive proof that the Democrat party had rigged almost all of the electronic voting machines with faulty software code.
Of course, that is all fantasy, we all know this has been and always will be the most transparent ethical administration in history.

I´m sure many of these Florida districts had turnouts that exceeded the number of registered voters. They did the same thing in 2000 to George W. Bush. The cheaters stole it.
It would have done no good for Romney to pull what Al Gore did. Too many states to contend with and the media would have eaten his lunch and all of us Republicans/conservatives. How dare we dispute Obama´s "win."
And, news for #25, not even a saint/conservative could have won, so stop blaming Romney. He would have made a wonderful president.

Agree completely with #9 (and a lot of others), disagree very much with #10´s first statement. Was once my thinking too -- that if Romney won by a big enough margin -- ´´...if it´s not close they can´t cheat´´. It´s obvious now that´s no longer enough. An honest majority could not protect us because there was could be no margin large enough. The Dems carefully lined up well before Tuesday what looks to be a bottomless well of votes from which to draw. 99% in this precinct? Really? 100% in that one? Really? Welcome home, Saddam Hussein. Let´s party like it´s 2002.
Cliched, unprovable conspiracy theories usually just make me tired and frustrated, but... This happened. Call it a bloodless coup. It is what it is. Of all the stories that should not be allowed to die, this is the one.
Meanwhile the Must Reads are buzzing with stories on General Petraeus´ girlfriend. Unless she´s the direct line to the take-down of Obama &crew over Benghazi, they´re a waste of time. He will be subpoenaed, if necessary, hopefully not to talk about his love life.

Come on guys. We didn´t lose because of cheating. If cheating were so easy, we would not have won two terms of Bush. Stop acting like liberals and trying to find a convenient boogeyman.
Blame the uneducated seniors, college idiots, and the rest of the liberal New Yorkers that have moved or retired to Florida.

I keep thinking of the screeching woman in the "Obamaphone" video, and realize that Obama won (stole?) the election with votes of multitudes of welfare thieves just like her, with her mentality or lower.
It makes me sick to my stomach. If I were a DemocRAT, I wouldn´t feel so smug about Obama´s "victory". In fact, I´d be embarrassed about it. But that´s the difference between the two parties...DemocRATS don´t feel any shame~~It´s all about winning.

What do they think is going to happen? The Good Witch of West is going to wave her magic wand and it will all go away?
Until the GOP starts DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT - the Democrats will continue to take advantage anyway they can.
The Republicans deserve to lose to cheaters until they start standing up to the Democrats on elections and stop the vote fraud.

#45, a good friend of mine since high school called me up two years ago, and started picking on me for being a conservative. Out of nowhere, we usually did not talk politics. After I was polite but held my ground, he said he was "tired of trying to convince me" and hung up the phone, never heard from him after. Then just a few months ago I ran into him at Home Depot...he was back into drugs (er..."recovery") and looked 20 years older than me. We said hi and I was on my way.

With proven voter fraud in OH, CO, PA, and FL why isn´t Romney NOW demanding a match up between votes and people who actually signed up!? He just rolled over. Haven´t heard a peep from him. This is incredibly demoralizing. If I didn´t believe God was in charge I´d be terrified. Keep getting this out there & keep praying.

Amazing mass psychology at work. Just tell the biggest lie with enough force and somehow it becomes the reality. When voting machines are caught doing the obvious manipulation for BHO, it is simply reported as a ´glitch.´ Kind of like the mechanical machines that came out of Philly with votes already cast for Democrats.
The obvious question besides how stupid and gutless are Republicans, who had a warning about exactly this kind of theft, TWELVE years ago with Gore, is this. Are we to simply accept the contradiction of a national voting public who was fed up with BHO´s fumbling in 2010 and gave him a record number of Tea Party type elected officials at all levels, now that same national voter base reversed direction and elects the master of the disaster and his helpers, AFTER AN EVEN WORSE TWO YEARS THAN 2008-2010?????

Another Republican Super PAC is jumping into the increasingly nasty Massachusetts Senate battle, going after Democrat Ed Markey’s biggest weakness — his $1.3 million Maryland home. The America Rising PAC, recently founded by Mitt Romney’s former presidential campaign manager, is planning to deliver a letter today to Maryland’s comptroller urging the state to investigate why Markey has never paid state income taxes there despite living in the upscale Chevy Chase suburb for two decades, the Herald has learned. Markey’s residency status has been dogging him throughout his career, ever since the Herald reported in the early 1990s

But an official cause of death and closure of the case is not likely for four to six weeks or perhaps longer, they said. Coroner´s officials are hoping the results will answer why the accident happened. Officials were attempting to match dental records to help make a positive identification. The death of the 33-year-old Hastings was announced Tuesday by his employer, BuzzFeed,

The former congressman, who apologized for the lewd picture scandal that ended his House career before launching a bid last month for New York City mayor, is holding a fundraiser hosted by “Women for Anthony” next week at the Manhattan home of an education activist and philanthropist. The host committee is led by his wife, Huma Abedin, and includes her sister, Heba; Rory Tahari, wife of designer Elie Tahari; and Cheryl Saban, the wife of California-based mega-donor Haim Saban, who funded a short film lauding Hillary Clinton’s tenure at the State Department

Likening religious schools to segregation--a racist system that forced blacks to attend different schools and use different facilities than whites in the American South--President Barack Obama told a town hall meeting for youth in Belfast, Northern Ireland on Monday that there should not be Catholic and Protestant schools because such schools cause division. "Because issues like segregated schools and housing, lack of jobs and opportunity--symbols of history that are a source of pride for some and pain for others--these are not tangential to peace; they’re essential to it,"

A group of whistleblowers, including a number of aviation experts, have come forward in a new documentary to claim that the official explanation for the crash of TWA Flight 800 was wrong and a gas tank explosion did not bring down the flight off the coast of Long Island 17 years ago. However, the six whistleblowers, all part of the original investigation team, stopped short of saying the plane was shot down. Flight 800, a Boeing 747, had just taken off from JFK airport with 230 people aboard on July 17, 1996 enroute to Paris when it exploded

An attorney whose firm represents two Benghazi whistleblowers said Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, lied to the Senate when he said there was never a “stand down” order during the Benghazi attack on Sept. 11, 2012. “What was fascinating is that he explained his lie to them,” Joe DiGenova, an attorney representing one of the whistleblowers, told CNSNews.com. “He actually said they were sent to Tripoli. They were needed in Benghazi,” said DiGenova, a former U.S. attorney, now with the Washington firm of DiGenova & Toensing.

Listening to Barack Obama give his speech in Belfast on Monday, it was hard not to stifle a yawn. I kept waiting for the part when he would say something interesting, but, about three quarters of the way through, realised it wasn’t going to come. Judging from television pictures some of his young audience felt the same, after the initial rush of euphoria of receiving the rock star president in their midst had passed. This is not surprising, for we had already heard this number about the inspirational role of the Northern Ireland peace process and the Emerald Isle’s

This is the thirtieth anniversary of the publication of How Democracies Perish, an analysis of the spread of world communism by Jean-François Revel, one of freedom´s most serious French defenders since Tocqueville. At the heart of this work, Revel details "The Tools of Communist Expansion," among which the most relevant for understanding our current situation comes in Chapter 16, "Ideological Warfare and Disinformation." The profound simplicity of Revel´s nuts and bolts account of totalitarianism´s Cold War advance, far from being obsolete

Charlie Rose last night asked President Obama his new Syria policy. The president first objected to it being called a new policy. "I´m not sure you can characterize this as a new policy. This is consistent with the policy that I´ve had throughout," he said. Obama then explained the goal is regional stability, and especially in Syria. "Really, what we´re trying to do is take sides against extremists of all sorts and in favor of people who are in favor of moderation, tolerance, representative government, and over the long-term, stability and prosperity for the people of Syria," said Obama.
