The Blaze Radio’s Severin: Obama Victory Is Not Terrible, It’s ‘Catastrophic’
Listen to Jay Severin exclusively (and for free) on TheBlaze radio weekdays from 2-5 here.
–
In these few nostalgic hours I’ll be spending on the soil of the former United States of America (R.I.P.) – prior to the departure of my one-way flight to Iceland – let’s consider the electoral outcome.
Obama’s win is not terrible, as many of us imagine.
Not terrible. It is Catastrophic.
The nature, magnitude and impact of an Obama victory has never quite been understood.
Among patriots, one commonly hears “We Can’t Survive Another Four Years of Obama.”
Actually, we might.
Make no mistake: “make it” means like the victim of a hideous car crash, whose relatives are told by physicians “we think she’ll ‘Make It’ “….(but she’ll never be the same.)
Oh, we may “make it” through another Obama sentence.
But we’ll never be the same.
It will be profoundly dreadful: confiscatory taxes; massive government growth; exploding deficit; widespread unlawfulness protected – nay, promoted – by the government; uncontrolled illegal immigration; open, unbridled racial preferences in every facet of life; hostility and grave threats – and perhaps dismantling – of various Free Speech sources, especially Talk Radio and Any Media unsupportive of Obama. Oba-Medicine, the absolute end of personal choice in medical care, including – Yes- Death Panels, for real; the gutting of our military; Obama’s promised post-election “flexibility” (i.e. surrender) toward our blood enemies and other forms of Gangster Government by a Gangster President should be expected.
Ultimately, America will be presided over by an un-American domestic enemy of the Constitution of the United States of America. Someone who isn’t, has never been, American in any sense of the word. Other than that, we’ll “make it,” on paper.
Individuals, business and families will be ruined – their future plans snatched away forever. And that all is not even the worst of it.
The Real Reason Obama’s win is horrific is not his next four years, per se, despite the limited preview above.
No.
The horror (the horror) is what Obama’s electoral victory means beyond four years.
It means we’ve reached the dreaded tipping point: the moment at which those who rely on someone else (you) for their living now control the vote.
It means the takers make up at least 50%+1.
That means we haven’t merely been sentenced to another FOUR years of Obamunism (aka Marxism, Socialism) – but an endless series of Obamas.
If we couldn’t win this one – given Obama’s manifest failings and grotesque beliefs and values coupled with a terrible economy – someone please explain to me how we win in 2016, and with whom?!
The demographic and political numbers for us become exponentially less hospitable as every day passes – e.g. even Texas – Texas! – hovers on the edge of tipping into Blue State status.
If Texas become the next New York and California (and beware Florida!) – an automatic, massive infusion of electoral votes, could that same person please explain to me how any non-Democrat candidate rationalizes a viable Electoral College strategy?
Save your time. It doesn’t exist.
WE don’t exist. By WE, I mean the America in which you and I grew up.
The people to whom we said “Get a Job!” or “Learn English!” decided instead to take the money from your job and speak whatever they damned well please.
Gilligan’s Island and Belief in God Was America.
Now American Idol and Jay-Z and Beyonce Are America.
Nauseating, but destiny.
An Obama win presages four more years of a government wrecking crew demolishing what’s left of the America we knew – but, sickeningly, it clears the path for an era of Socialism. Obama’s win signals America’s entry into the Dark Ages and, arguably, the end of the values, institutions and essence of what made us America and Americans.
You’ve witnessed an Obama mitigated by the prospect of answering to voters in another election. No more.
You, we, ain’t seen nothing yet.

Nov. 8, 2012 at 10:26amIceland? Nothing in Iceland is free, you pay for everything through the nose in sky high taxes. Like Sweden you pay collosal taxes just for the basics because the basics are becoming more and more expensive. Why do you think the Swedes have now invested massive amounts of money developing high technology arms equipment? Its because its one of the only ways they can sell a product to the rest of us to pay for the people they have allowed into their country. 700 000 immigrants into a nation of a few million, most of which dont speak Swedish and dont work, somebody has to pay for their housing and benefits. Nothing is free there is no such thing even in Iceland, people have to work and pay taxes for those who dont work and pay taxes. Its that simple.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 6:56pmThe red states need to get together and say no more. Not secede, simply tell the federal government that X, Y, Z are unconstitutional under the 10th amendment. Sure, the fed can cut off state funding but the states can keep the taxes they collect instead of turning them over to the federal government. This is the only real way the states can reclaim the sovereignty that has been slowly stripped away over the last century.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 3:58pmThe hard-left united with liberal-moderates to vote in Obama, but the hard-right Christians abandoned the Republican Party, for the second time following McCain’s failure to get their support, in suicidal hate because neither were sufficiently anti-abortion. It is not just that they want to curtail some abortions which most people might accept — such as sex-selective or partial-birth abortion. No, they want to ban it all, even in the first trimester and in early periods where the fertilized embryo is declared “a human being”, when it still has gills and a tail, like a fish, and cannot be distinguished from other primate embryos. The rejection of natural science and biology, that we go through evolution in our mother’s womb, is a direct confirmation of basic theory of evolution, that we are related to other animals, is self defeating and off-putting in a manner not unlike denying the moon landings. It is theocratic, anti-democratic, and anti-woman’s freedom, in how they want to tell everyone else that their particular branch of anti-evolution, anti-abortion, and frequently anti-contraception Christianity is the ONE WAY. But they don’t vote! Why now then should more moderate Republicans who want smaller government, controlled budgets and a strong foreign policy favoring democracies instead of socialist or Islamic dictatorships, bow to them when they shun us? We went to the moon on science, but won’t make it to the White House without it.

“where the fertilized embryo is declared “a human being”, when it still has gills and a tail, like a fish, and cannot be distinguished from other primate embryos.”
You made a poor attempt to use science to explain your opinion. Did you forget about DNA? We may look like a fish as you say, but our DNA from moment 1 is human. That makes us a human being from fertilization. Just because an infant at 4 weeks gestation can’t take care of itself, doesn’t mean we should be able to kill it. Just because it doesn’t look like a human doesn’t mean we should be able to kill it. Are elderly people next? Perhaps the mentally retarded?
Leave science to those of us who have studied it and practiced it.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 5:56pm@PAGREYWOLF — DNA in humans also has shared attributes with other life-forms. In any case, DNA theory has many problems as you would know if truly any kind of scientist. There is plenty of room for the belief in cosmic or divine creation, but it includes all other life not just humans. At root you MEN responding here are simply angry at WOMEN, and want to control them, using your theology as a club. Sorry, I won’t vote for anyone promoting that, and this is why so many otherwise good and decent Republicans are not getting elected. Political and social freedom demands also sexual-reproductive freedom. Remember the Church used to burn women alive for such things as abortion, even teenage girls whose lives were destroyed by hateful prejudice against “sinners”. I am conservative on most issues but like most have a belly-full of preachers wrapping themselves in “freedom” rhetoric, even as they wish to deprive others of the same. The Democrats are worse in this respect, but this conversation is about how to get the Rep. Party back to winning elections.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 8:48pm@Black Eagle First off, DNA comes from the seed of man. It comes from male sperm. Secondly just because someone justifies killing babies whether in embryonic state or full human being does not mean that it is right. God brought together each individual cell to the right place in everyones bodies. Whether hanicapped or not. We are unique in that God made us that way. You speak like you are a wise man but, your words are foolish to that of the word of God. Science can not prove what so ever, that we came from monkies, fish, dinosaurs, a single celled organism, evolution, it cannot prove it no matter how hard they try. Who placed the stars in the sky and what keeps them from colliding into one another? Who keeps the earth from colliding into the sun? Who came up with the idea that earth would be created and that man and creatures would be placed on it? Where were you when God had created the foundation of the world? That’s obvious you weren’t born yet but where were you? Man can’t even prove the “big bang theory” and that is because it’s just that in all aspects of science involving evolution. It’s theory but God is real and even the smallest living organisms prove God’s existence, Christ’s death, burrial, and resurrection for the sin of mankind. You don’t understand and that’s ok but before you open up your mouth know what you are talking about before touting evolution “theory” pick up the bible and read because the one world government is the direction Obama is st

We will never know America the beautiful exceptional nation again. The damage obama did in four years is just unbelievable and I don’t think we know the half of it but open your eyes and know what he and his minions have planned for the next four. AND we can’t stop him. Hey – those of you who say we have the house!!! What a joke! Yeah that really helped this past four years didn’t it. To say I am upset is putting it ever so mildly.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 5:34pmWhen Clinton was reelected no one thought this is the end of America. I didn’t believe that. With President Obama being reelected I don’t see how this country survives. Even if the GOP ties his hands for four years, the health care law automatically kicks in. I believe coal energy plants are automatically being shut down. The GOP can’t stop the FED from printing money.
The media will go with the narrative the country is gridlocked because of the republicans. President Obama will just go around them by executive orders and regulatory measures.
The 51% public don’t care, are uninformed, and ignorant. That is a major problem too. You can’t win an election with a populace like that.

After all, we’ve been paying their bills for decades now (net federal dollars inflow to California, in spite of them having the highest taxes and largest population).
Either that or force a state to divide in half when its electoral votes become too large (around 27 or so). That way the electoral college becomes like a mutual fund, with no single state/stock comprising more than 5% of the total population/assets.

System of checks and balances you say? Obama has proven time and again that he doesn’t need the approval of the Legislative or Judicial branches to get his plans implemented. Also Obama is worse than as bad as it seems. The man is a compulsive liar and obfuscator, he has made it clear that he doesnt care for the America is or was, instead he wants to change the US into something else. When did America start needing to be “fixed” I can understand some social issues, but basically going against the ideals that founded this country in the first place? Today is different than yesterday, I had hope and faith that intelligence would prevail over stupidity. Today I have 4 more guaranteed years of never know what might happen to the country I love so much. I have also seen that people suck, not all of them…just the majority. On top of that I know for a fact that there will be numerous layoffs attributed to this election and I dont feel that my job is secure, even at a company as large as Intel.
As for the talk of secession, you know, they have a point. Why should I, or anyone else for that matter, who works hard for what I have, be responsible for those who do not. I believe in helping my fellow man when they are in need, but only as far as to get them on their feet so they may do the same.

And I have a deep conviction you should be able to believe whatever you want. But it seems like if God is in charge of everything, controlling everything, than this election result is god’s will as well, so why are you ever sad about anything? It’s all God’s plan. Also, if an entire people or nation is punished over the acts of a few, that doesn’t speak very highly of God. It’s like having a bunch of kids, one does something bad, but you beat them all. Seems very capricious, goes against my conception of justice.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 2:55pmPretty sad state of affairs when we have to turn to CANADA for media reporting of our President and Benghazi. This election win brought to you by the American Political Hacks and Propaganda machine loosely referred to as the MSM. Had there been ANY fair analysis on Libya from anyone other than FOX news, this election would have gone the other way. Obama Lied, he played politics with American lives, he has sold arms to our worst enemies, and he puts himself above the law. The most important issue – he has no problem looking us straight in the eye and telling us lies. Nothing he said or promised during his campaign speeches is valid and all are expendable. The real agenda will NOT be told to America, we voted without the facts. The uninformed elected him because he lied about his opponent AND lied about himself.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 2:53pmPeople like Soros will be all too willing to offer you liberals your handouts, but you won’t like the price. Obama now talks of reaching across to the republicans, but if that is what he ever wanted to do why is he only interested in doing that now? Compromise with Obama means pay him all, or else.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 2:49pmAn alternative is to let the system inevitably collapse. There are enough of us with the ability and skills to survive on our own while the deadbeats and the lazy parish due to their own stupidity and dependence of entitlement. We would have to depend on our Military to keep the Ruskies, Chinese and other scavengers off our back while this takes place and we begin to rebuild.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 12:40pmDear Jay,
Thank you for all of your hard work and honesty. I am sad to say that I agree with you. I often agree with you, however, this is the first time I have felt sad doing so. It was too complicated for 50+1 people to understand that Obama’s policies have led to our current finacial troubles. Things will continue to get worse. I fear that in 2016, with even more failed policies to attach to our dire state, it will prove an insurmountable concept for the 50+1 to grasp. It is much easier for them to understand that they want birth control and continued benefits from the governemt.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 12:04pmSo here I am. Left USSR 20 years ago just to find myself in USSA on this gloomy and hopeless November morning. By the way, do you know what November 7th is in Russia? It is the anniversary of the Great Socialist Revolution of 1917. Might as well make it a national holiday in America, too.
I am now seriously considering moving to Texas. My wife is a very good software designer. Her job is portable. My company is on the brink of closing. I guess I have to go through yet another immigration. It is hard. Very hard. I love New England. But I can’t take it anymore.
I can’t take being told that I have to “give back to the community” as if employing 25 people, helping them put bread on the table every day, hiring local contractors, and dog services, and shopping at local businesses, and paying local taxes is not enough. I did all that and yet I am the one who is not “patriotic”, I am the one who is not “paying fair share”, I am the one who should bite his tongue at social gatherings. I have to pay for people that were born in this country, who didn’t have to leave their friends and relatives behind, who didn’t have to uproot their family and move across the ocean, who didn’t have to learn a new language. No, they are “enlightened” and just “less fortunate”.
I need to find my Gult’s Gulch. The alternative is only heavy drinking and self-destruction. I can’t do that. I have my wife, children and my two lovely pointers. I have to dust myself off aga

Nov. 7, 2012 at 3:19pmI would suggest you check out Doug Casey’s “La Estancia De Cafayate” in Argentina… a version of ‘Galt’s Gulch.’
I am also sorry that my country did not maintain it’s values; that it has devolved over the last 100 years into a place where people believe they are owed something, and that it’s ok for the government to take from others to give them a little bit of what they believe they are ‘owed’; that it fails to recognize the puppet masters on Wall Street and the Corporatocracy who really run this joint; I’m sorry the right can’t accept that our warring and maintenance of ‘American Exceptionalism’ through our global bullying is bankrupting us, and not something to be proud of; I’m sorry that the left can taste their Marxist dreams, or can see the bleak darkness of state capitalism within their grasp; I’m sorry that neither side gives a damn about liberty, respects our Constitution, and has everyone snowed into believing the status quo MUST be maintained or…
My very best wishes to you and yours.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 3:22pmI can’t even imagine what it is like for people who fled communist countries to witness this dark day. It’s bad enough for us who grew up in America watch our country’s decline. My city of San Antonio had some very disappointing election results,too. What do you expect from a democrat mayor raised by a socialist. It’s depressing to see my city and country about to go down the drain. I’m in mourning today, but I vow not to be a sunshine patriot. I’m not a victim and refuse to go down without a fight.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 3:23pmI feel your pain – I would apologize, but I am not the cause of this. I am in Arkansas and if you find your Galt’s Gulch out this way – please let it be known so I, and others, can do the same. Best of luck, sir – hope to see you on the other side (and not necessarily in Heaven).

Nov. 8, 2012 at 12:00am@dimakan, We feel the same way. My husband came here from Russia about 15 years ago and I came from Montreal, Canada. We are absolutely stunned that so many people would ignore all that has been happening under Obama. Is it media? hunger to keep and get more “entitlements”? ignorance?

Nov. 7, 2012 at 11:37amTo-Do List for these trying times:
Pay down your debts.
Lower your cost of living.
Prepare for hard times ahead.
Try to also enjoy whatever decent-enough time we still have left.
…and when the economic implosion inevitably takes place, “go Galt”.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 9:37am“If we couldn’t win this one – given Obama’s manifest failings and grotesque beliefs and values coupled with a terrible economy – someone please explain to me how we win in 2016, and with whom?!”
Jay I am asking myself that same question. Look, God is ultimately God. I mourn for the 50+1 Americans bc they are blind. God’s judgment in the end is what we all face – but soon enough maybe not in my lifetime or my kids but God is coming…and soon. We are Babylon Jay – more and more secualr and without God everyday we wake. We ravel in the spoils of what Rome once was as well. God is still God Jay. Man is not.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 2:30pmAfter crying this morning at 2:45 am when I awoke and saw the news of Romney’s loss, speaking to God and reading my Bible was the first thing I did. You are so right. The Bible says our God reigns. He reigns over nations, leaders and kings. He was not asleep or unaware as 50%+1 entitlement minded individuals voted to make sure their gravy train continues. If you follow Bible prophecy as I do, you must feel certain that this is part of His plan. If you read “Can America Survive” by Dr. John Hagee, all this has been foretold in the words of the Bible. A global economic collapse will bring about the rise of the antichrist who will come to “save the world” from its economic woes. As I believe in a pre-trib rapture, I am looking upward as I believe Christ will be returning soon to take his children home. I am shocked and saddened that the America that I have loved for almost 60 years is no longer recognizable, the scripture from Proverbs 3:5 came to mind this morning…that is to “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding”.

Nov. 7, 2012 at 6:49pmRil you are right. As heartbreaking, as crushing and disturbing as it is, we must have faith that God will deliver us. It’s so hard to understand how this is possible. I am broken. I cannot stand the reality of another four years of tyranny which will lay waste to America as we know it. As the reality sinks in I must pray for Israel and every other free nation out there… we are lost. America is doomed and would seem the veil of protection is gone. Babylon could be an understatement, how about Sodom… I have this crushing feeling that it is coming faster than we think. Get your life in order and prepare it will not be a fun ride.
