The Grim Significance Of The 2008 Elections

It is far more significant however to recognize that the racial game Obama played represents only one aspect of the twisted political movement that seized the presidency for him. From its shady financing, to the innumerable incidents of voter fraud and intimidation, to the media propaganda blitz that rivaled anything seen since the days of Joseph Goebbels, the incessant parade of despicable behavior indicates that Obama and his political apparatus believe that they could not have won a sincere and open political competition.
Ultimately, instead of highlighting the ascendancy of the American mainstream above past racial prejudices, the 2008 election will ever after serve as a bell-weather of the total collapse of the American political process, possibly marking the end of the freedom and greatness of America.
In response, real Americans must put futile attempts at "graciousness" aside, recognize the dire nature of the situation in which they find themselves, and say so publicly. They must immediately return to a political discourse that is defined by truth, and not tainted beyond recognition with "political correctness." Good must be called "good," and evil must be called "evil," with no concern for the predictably overblown and hysterical reactions of the opposition.
No quarter can be offered in response to the false supposition of liberal sincerity. Those on the left care about the supposed sexual harassment of women only when they can gain political traction from the ensuing controversy surrounding it. They tout "morality" only when a scandal emerges that might cost a Republican Senator his seat. When such problems are unearthed on their side of the aisle, they turn a blind eye and deliver platitudes about one's "private" life or the "politics of destruction." Likewise, liberals throughout the Democrat political machine and the old media cite race only when they can use the issue to bludgeon their rivals.
This year, liberal Democrats showed their true disdain and contempt for the wishes of the American electorate by ignoring the countless incidents of criminal vote tampering that inarguably altered the outcome of the 2008 elections. Consequently, patriotic Americans owe no unconditional "oath of loyalty" to Obama, who now leads the political movement that loudly flaunted its total disloyalty to the current president even when doing so undermined the interests of this nation as he sought to preserve and defend it.
It is high time for conservatives to recognize that since the 1990s, the rules have changed. The only "new ground" broken during this year's election cycle was the boundary of law that had once been instituted to ensure a just and equitable execution of the democratic process, but is now in shambles.
The underhanded Democrat tactics of the 2008 political season are no less a declaration of war on the conventions and institutions of the American heartland than were the numerous Islamist attacks preceding 9-11. And anything short of a full and appropriate political and ideological counterattack from the right will guarantee its eventual defeat.
