First, all this brouhaha over secession and now I am hearing about how Obama is gonna be a third term president?

What the hell is going on? I feel like I am in the twilight zone!

1. I don't give that article ANY credence at all.

It just ain't gonna happen.

And no, you are not losing your mind, my dear Texasgal!

7. You know, tonight on my drive home

was when I heard about it first. There was an ad on the radio about it!

It just struck me as... twilight zone-ish!

Thank you though, I don't wanna lose my mind!

2. No, but some may be!

It's an old story, and fairly fairy-tale, imo.

3. No you are not losing your mind

But approximately 47% percent of this country are losing their minds.

It used to be that the crazies would be ostracized and mocked in the media. But now they are given seats at the major news networks and primetime appearances.

4. Three terms? fantastic

8 more years, 8 more years.



He will do that after he take away all their guns.

6. When we spent 8 years criticizing Bush at least we didn't have to just make shit up.

8. You are asking for a psychiatric question on DU, so the answer is no . . .

11. That rumor always appears. It happened with Clinton and for Bush

[tibbiit]

12. You know actually this might be a good thing

Becoming a question in MSM. Obama as our FDR set up would be sweet. I'd rather have him compared in history to FDR then Reagan. So maybe this is the start of the narrative.
