Obama can be stopped in the Electoral College
[link to www.wnd.com]

We have one last, final chance to save America. We have one last, final chance to stop Barack Obama. One final chance.

What is this final chance? Will the Republicans step up to the plate and do what is necessary?

Barack Obama has not yet been re-elected president.

Yes, the election is over – but remember, a presidential election in America is not by popular vote. We vote for the candidate, but what we are really doing is voting for the electors who will meet on the Monday after the second Wednesday in December.

That is when the actual re-election of the president occurs.

Is there a way to stop this?

Yes, there is.

And the best part – this is totally constitutional.

The 12th Amendment of the Constitution as well as Article II of the Constitution govern the Electoral College.

According to the 12th Amendment, for the Electoral College to be able to select the president, it must have a quorum of two-thirds of the states voting. If enough states refuse to participate, the Electoral College will not have a quorum. If the Electoral College does not have a quorum or otherwise cannot vote or decide, then the responsibility for selecting the president and vice president devolves to the Congress.

The popular vote needs to be placed in action. With the level of computing and countless ways people can be verified online, there's no reason not to. This would be the only way to truly make every person's vote COUNT

Several states are totally opposed to Obamacare. I hope they choose to act as this article prescribes.

Not going to happen....face it..we were dumb enough as a whole to re-elect this boob.

The left owns the media, so they own and operate the narrative and can create any narrative they feel like and then make it become true for the sheeple.

You want a war on Women?...er um Mr Romeny what about making contraception illegal?

MR: LOL...WTF are you talking about???...how about we stick to real life things instead ...okay?
MSM: BREAKING NEWS:...MITT ROMENY REFUSES TO DISCUSS OR DENY THE RIGHT WING MAKING CONTRACEPTION ILLEGAL!

MR: Oh well there are like 47% of the people that aren't going to vote me because of any tax cuts, because they don't pay taxes, so can't worry about them.

MSM: ZOMFG FREAK THE FUCK OUT MEGA UBER BREAKING NEWS! ROMNEY SAYS "FUCK HALF THE COUNTRY! YOU POOR FUCKERS GO WAX MY 10 CARS! BITCHES!"...plus he's RACIST!!!!...AHHHH!!!!...

On and on....Obama asleep at the switch and 4 of our guys get wasted, no help sent. First ambassador in 40 years...

REPORTER TO WALMART SHOPPER: What about Benghazi?
WMS: errrr...I thought his last CD was pretty good, but I like beyonce better.

They control the narrative...terrorize the uninformed and create whatever scenery around whatever bullshit story they want to and can take any event and play it up or play it down as they see fit.

With the other weapons in the left's arsonal that they have developed over time?...Liberal mind laundries (colleges)...frantic greentards...every deviant "lifestyle" on board...etc etc...how many else?...virtually every single minority still believing that the Liberals "are lookin out for the little guys"...and that's that...they win almost every single time until something SO bad happens that the masses either surrender fully or finally wake up due to their own screaming from the pain.

So...just strap in for 4 more years of complete and utter economic stagnation and slowly bleeding jobs and work out our eyes. The rest of the fucktarded and uber violent world coming unglued piece by piece. The cost of everything going up up and away while the brainiacs in DC support more awesomest schemes like pond slime gasoline and just spend their asses off like teenage gurls with daddy's credit card drunk on Zima at the mall and act like they own a money printing machine..because they do.

And the whole time?...blame the evil Rethuglicans...and be able to sell it too...lol...

That's our future, because that's we asked for.
Maybe we'll survive it as a republic...maybe we won't..time will tell, but Obama is "The Wrecker" and we asked for him to keep the train wrecks comin'...

I know he isn't going to disappoint...as far as THAT goes.

Not true - see the editor's note that's been added to the beginning of the article:

"Editor’s note, Nov. 20, 2012: Since this column was posted it has been discovered that the premise presented about the Electoral College and the Constitution is in error. According to the 12th Amendment, a two-thirds quorum is required in the House of Representatives, not the Electoral College."

At which point the spineless scum-sucking lizards would welcome Obama with open arms and vote for him unanimously.

Haven't you figured it out yet? Whether caused by the theft of the Election, the greed of the gibmedats, or Divine Retribution our Fate is to have to put up with Obama for 4 more years. That's if we are lucky. And if we survive to even HAVE another election, at least in our lifetimes.

I sympathize with you, Carshy, I really do! I was hoping against hope also. I was praying, I was fasting, I was begging God to save us from the son of Satan, but apparently it didn't fit into His plans. I guess our Nation has not been chastised enough, or not enough people repented of their sins and turned to Him.

I just hope that He doesn't plan on pulling a Sodom and Gomorrah on us, because there ARE still a lot of people who love Him and try really hard to live in a way that He would approve. Unfortunately, we seem to be outnumbered by people who revel in evil, at least for the moment.

Maybe in another four years we (as a collective nation) will have learned our lesson. I certainly hope so.

Only Divine intervention can save us now.

Otherwise, I fear that we are finished.
