And Patty Murray is the Democrat that they’re going after? Hell, I can’t remember the last time I even heard about a politician from my old home state.
I believe it was not a dwarf he had in mind…
A face.
The Teabaggers may be nut cases, but that doesn’t stop quite a few folks in believing their propaganda. It’s quite plausible that enough folks believing their crap will cast enough votes to put one or more of the nut cases into office, too.
Robert Heinlein once remarked that getting shot ought to be considered an occupational hazard for tax collectors. In a similar spirit, I propose that lynch mobs should be considered an occupational hazard for politicians and public servants. Some armed rebellion now and then is good for the nation and good for the soul.
You’re a weird dude.
I take that as a compliment.
Heinlien was a hack. Unfit to sharpen Larry Niven’s pencils, or paint Ursula Le Guinn’s toenails. Phil Farmer could write better in a coma. Probably the only SF writer more wildly overestimated would be L. Ron Batshit.
And I am not the least bit surprised that you quote him admiringly.
When you and your jughead militia decide to storm the Capitol, be sure to give the press plenty of advance notice so that we can all watch you being mown down on live TV. I’ll spring for the keg.
Band Name!
You got relatives in the service, Lonesome? How about your neighbor, didn’t his son join the National Guard? You gonna shoot his son? You gonna go next door and deliver some bullshit about watering the Tree of Liberty while he mourns?
You mean like Bachman or that guy in SC who wants to ban US currency in his state or those people who support a bill to “pay as you go” then vote against it when the other part embraces it?
Yeah, I’ve got relatives in the service and others who have been. There’s also a cop in the family. They feel pretty much the same way I do about the government these days. If you’re counting on the military and the police to preserve the quasi-Stalinist state Obama is trying to set up, you may be in for a very ugly surprise. Did you and Vinyl Turnip throw keggers on hearing the news about Waco and Ruby Ridge?
Cite?
Those are Obama’s fault now?
Clinton’s. All those people (Democrats) look alike to LP.
Thank you for providing me with the biggest laugh I’ve had all week.
Cool, I can’t wait for the treason trials and the executions. Maybe make it a pay per-view and help pay off the debt. How are Federal executions done these days, hanging? What’s nice though, is that we can waterboard the suspected treasoners to extract the names of the co-conspirators. If we do a good enough job of torture we can probably get them to name some innocent people we just don’t like as well: “Palin was part of this, right? Snorfle, snorfle, YES!! Just stop waterboarding me”!
Oh, and I forgot. This will be domestic terrorism so we can try the folks in military tribunals, not give them Miranda and habeas corpus rights, etc.
Do you particularly enjoy watching such activities? Are you ever tempted to participate?
