11. The world figures out the the US Fed has run a gigantic Ponzi scheme. They quit buying US Bonds, driving the US into a bankruptcy.

10. Obama will bring back the draft – 18-27 year old men and women. Except he will call it national service and each will have a choice (Army, Peace Corps, Vista, Acorn or Border Guard).

9. By the end of the year, the press will start calling “saving”, hoarding. People who work and save money, will be called hoarders. Paulson is already starting this by blamer “savers” in developing nations for our economic collapse.

A little late, but here are mine:
1. By the end of the year economist will say we are officially in a depression.
2. Fans of MLB and the NBA will revolt because of the ridiculous salaries and ticket prices, causing many teams in each league to go bankrupt and the NBA to ask for a bailout.
3. BDS will be replaced by ODS (and by the same people). We will see some character flaws in Obama, mainly he is overly analytical and a micromanager like Carter. His lack of direction and commitment will cause a vaccuum, filled by members on the left trying to get their own agenda’s through.
4. A chief democrat (Franks, Dodd, Schumer) will do a perp walk for FBI investigations into Fannie Mae bribes.
5. Wind Mills will be banned in many locations because they kill birds.
6. Russia will invade the Ukraine, saying that the Ukraine owes them money.
7. Israel drops a Nuke on Iran.
8. This is already happening. Green house gases will be blamed for Global Cooling and the coming Ice Age.

1. BO the Prez will be as slow to take positions on international incidents as BO the Prez-elect.
2. BO’s opinions will change with the polls.
3. By comparison, Hillary’s performance as First Lady will seem gracious versus what we will see from Michelle Obama.

I predict the drug cartels of mexico will cross the border on a regular basis with the help of the mexican military. The cartels will move to take over US border towns by legally crossing with the new “quick card” while the US government gives Mexico $4bill to assist in the war on drugs.

The NASCO highway is renamed the Bush/Fox Corridor and the SPP will become a simcity playstation game.

Obama will discover that the “Mickey Mouse” dontions were really from the Sinaloa Cartel and will invite them to stay in the Lincoln bedroom–all on the same night.

Ramos and Compean will still be political prisioners one year from now because Bush will sign an executive order the last day in office requiring them to serve their entire sentence.

Obama will pardon Aldrete next Christmas as a sign of good will to the Sinaloa Cartel.

There will not be another attempt to ram “comprehensive immigration reform” down our throats because the cartels will promise direct deposits to Obamas offshore account to ignore the entire situation.

Happy New Year from the US/Mexico border while it still exists.

I predict that after a few months of the Obamasiah (and gang) at the helm, the sales of K-Y Jelly will skyrocket — Buy stock now!

“RACISM!” will be cried more times than can be counted.

I’ll second (or is it something like forty-sixth?) the idea that many will experience buyers’ remorse on President Obama.

At least two of my sports teams will rip my heart out, throw it to the ground, and stomp on it repeatedly, and I will continue to keep coming back to them. The others will all disappoint me in some fashion. Go Cleveland!

I’m not predicting anything. I’m too tired of being right.

Buyer’s remorse. Nationalizing companies. Downhill run to become a third-world country. Seen them coming from a Y2K away.

Yup.

Here’s what I posted on another thread:

We are not seeing the beginning of the end but the end of the beginning. It’s called “creative destruction”. So let the stupid government become inextricably linked with all things irrelevant: the automakers, the newspapers, and, within a generation or so, the dollar. They will all crash together. And good riddance.

The former USSR bungled their chance at metamorphosis by allowing a thug to grab the reins of power after the crash. We have elected our thug before the crash, and if the good people of this great nation become organized well enough, and soon enough, we may be able to manage the transition with much less pain than they have had in Russia.

Personality cults rely on control of information, and try as they may, here in the US the genie will never go back into the bottle. Therefore, the O’Boingo adoration fad is paper-thin, and can and will evaporate with astonishing speed. Starry-eyed, adolescent leftism will, before long, be replaced with a blunt pragmatism that will cause as much soul-searching on the right as it does the left.

We are on the cusp of something big, and we can choose either to seize the opportunity to advance the people of this nation, or we can descend into chaos. At the moment, I can’t see clearly which it will be, but I pray it’s the former.

How’s thatfor a New Year’s prognostication? It’s not a resolution, but I gave up on those once I grew up enough to learn to substitute action in the place of talk (ie. last week).

The Sun will come up in the east, there will be floods and droughts and the Democrats will blame Big Business. Al Gore will wet himself during one of his screeds and his Depends will fail him.

President Barack Hussein, Allah Be Praised, BroBama will say “ah” 23 times during the inauguration speech and so Chris Matthew’s Depends will fail also. Keith Olbermann will say something stupid.

Happy New Year, and God Bless America except for the Blue States.
