Cannonfire is history

Does anyone know what happened with Joseph Cannon and Cannonfire?  While I didn't always agree with some of his conspiracy theories, he was certainly an interesting site to visit.  Any ideas on what happened?

Daily Puma has featured the cannonfire closing. According to the last post by cannon, he stated that he had vowed to keep the blog active until one thing happened (paraphrasing here). The implication is that the thing he was waiting on happened, and that it's time to close down. I wondered if he was referring to the growing realization that the Dems screwed the country by installing Obama.

I read his blog frequently, sometimes agreeing with him, sometimes not. I hate to see the site close. Over the past few months several PUMA-type or Pro-Hillary blogs have closed. But, others have opened up. The core supporters - all of us- who have remained together since 2008 have remained strongly supportive of Hillary and are active.

Even if Hillary was taken out of the equation, the actions of 2008 by the DNC, MSM and Obama were so UnAmerican, so unjust, so undemocratic, so corrupt that they must not be forgotten. We must continue to remind people of the assault on democracy and the travesty that occurred. People say this was just politics as usual, and no big deal. That is absolutely not the case. We can't let that be the case. If all we expect from our political leaders and government officials is corruption, that's sure as hell all we'll get. The rigging of the primary in 2008 effectively killed democracy, and those who were responsible should have to pay the ultimate political price. They need to be removed from office. I would personally like to see the major players in corruption on Oprah crying their eyes out and spilling their guts about how they deliberately denied people of America the right to vote and have their votes counted. I want Oprah, Nancy, Kerry, Richardson, Donna, Daschle, and the whole lot of them - hell, they can even bring John Edwards and his baby mama - on a national stage in disgrace. I know, hell will probably freeze over before that happens, but as cold as it's been this year, that doesn't seem all that unlikely. lol. Regardless, I'm prepared to keep fighting until ice forms on the gates of hell. And, i can't think of anyone I'd rather be fighting alongside than you guys.

I know I veered OT, but just thinking about all the Pro-Hillary sites and groups reminded me of the extreme injustice perpetrated on us and on this country by the Obamacrats and by MSM.

I vote what you've written here as "Post of the Year"!!  I definitely couldn't have said it better.smile

Did Cannonfire's head asplode?  Because that is what should be happening to anybody with integrity that fell for the Obama line.  You can't sit there and witness what you've just described below, what we PUMAs all saw plain as day, and not know there's something most foul afoot.  People who are SUPPOSED TO BE PAYING ATTENTION should be utterly and absolutely ashamed to have supported Barry for any length of time.

Now, there are people who are not wonks, who work hard from sunup to sundown, and don't keep track of politics - they don't have time.  They have faith in our leaders to do the right thing.  I don't blame them as much.

But those who are on the front lines every day KNOW THAT BARACK IS FULL OF $H!T, and full of himself, AND that's he's NO DEMOCRAT!!

So, I'm not surprised that some of these people are going to freak out.  Your brain can take only so much cognitive dissonance before short-circuiting. confuse

Thanks so much for the kind words, Alex. Regarding Cannon, I'm not entirely sure what happened. I know that Alessandro posted a blog written by him from 2008 a few days ago on DP. The article was excellent, and nailed the DNC and Obama for the crap they pulled. Alessandro commented that someone who could write something as spot on as that article should keep his blog open. I'm sure there's other info on Cannonfire, which I understand will remain open for a week or so following the closing.

One thing is for sure, there's still plenty of work to do, and we need all the folks we can get. If Hillary does decide to run in 2013, we'll be very busy. Even if she doesn't, the 2010 elections are coming up, and a whole lot of Obamacrats need to be off our payroll. I plan to do what I can to get them off. lol.

Its a shame that this blog closed.  We better start getting ready especially those Democrats who think they got rid of Hillary Clinton.  They better wake up and smell the coffee their chosen one is so bad that NO Democraats will be elected unless they are named Clinton.

Joseph Cannon was one of the original PUMA's, he has never been pro Obama. I think the Obots got a little too close or made a threat or something. I can't see Joseph Cannon backing down from anyone or anything written, but a personal threat? We all know how nasty and dirty the Obots can be, and in fact were, during the 2008 primaries.

Hats off to Joseph Cannon for carrying the torch for as long. It is certainly not easy feat to run a website. I was not a frequent visitor there simply because of time pressures, but what I have seen, I have liked. Many thanks to Joseph Cannon.

Team Hillary Clinton takes over, I suppose!

I liked Cannonfire too. I didn't post there much, but I enjoyed reading it. I hope everything is all right with Joe Cannon.

 Yes Team Hillary takes over but there are several groups mostly on Facebook where the Hillary movement seems so strong.  There are several members on this board that is part of Team Hillary.  It started on Facebook.  The threats to JC have already begun he is in for a long fight.
