The Audacity Of Petulance
By Mitch Berg
This is likely going to be a close presidential election. I think – fervently believe, in fact – that Mac can pull this out. Since the convention, I’ve actually felt that this was a plausible belief, in fact.
But it’s distinctly possible we’re going to have four years of Messianic Democrat leadership, and possible hegemony, at the federal level in this country.
Now, to some extent it’s a win-win for me; Democrat governments are a “target rich environment” for talk radio (until the “Fairness” Doctrine sends black-clad stormtroopers rappelling down from helicopters to the Patriot studio), so while the economy and our national security will be in the crapper, there’ll be plenty to talk about.
But while Barack Obama has the strong potential to be, on Inauguration Day, the worst President of my lifetime, I’ll tell you what I – and any conservative I’ve ever known – won’t do; whine and whimper like a little baby about the unfairness of the system that saddled them with an opponent as a leader. Y’know – exactly what too many lefties have been doing for the past eight years.
Chad the Elder pillories the notion, listing all the bumper stickers you likely won’t see on Republicans’ cars:
– Don’t Blame Me, I Voted For McCain
– Somewhere In
IllinoisHawaiiKansas(?) A Village Is Missing Its Idiot– Impeach Obama
I’ve also made an agreement to secure a number of bumper stickers currently in use that could be equally applicable:
– He’s Not My President
– If You’re Not Outraged You’re Not Paying Attention
– Proud Of My Country–Ashamed Of My Government
And a couple of the clever “make you think” variety:
– Buck Ofama
– 1-20-13 (with a stark black background of course)
Of course, Chad is just scratching the surface. I’ll [not] be stocking up on a few more:
- Anointed, Not Elected
- If You Can Read This, You’re Not Subject To Obama’s Education Plan
- Impeach Biden First
- Pro-Constitution, Anti-Obama
- Fight Terrorism: Arrest Ayers
On the other hand, if Obama wins, look for four years of not one single complaint about the Electoral College or electronic voting machines…

If McCain wins, you should reprint the first two paragraphs of this post on the day that President McCain signs the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bill he forged with the Democrat leadership of congress.

Didn’t you ever watch Hogan’s Heros? All you have to do is give Shultz a little apple strudel and keep moving your transmitter.
