...brought about by a comment over at Michelle Malkin's place...
You have written not-so-eloquently about your wish for the violent death of the President and how we need to “GRAB OUR GUNS AND MARCH ON DC.” This country is great because we don’t have to do that. All we have to do is vote them out. We voted them in, so we have to deal with it for 2, 4, or 6 years, depending upon whom we are addressing.
Eh? What do you mean "we," Kemosabe? I for one sure as hell didn't vote for this. MY elected reps voted against this monstrosity. And that ain't to say they're pure as the wind-driven snow, but the fact is they made the right decision. But they were outvoted. Which brings me to said random thought: It sounds simple to say, "all we have to do is vote them out," but what the hell do you do when you're outvoted? Sit down, shut up and deal with it? I shudder to think where THAT road leads. It may not be time to start shooting the bastards yet, but the Pollyanna-ish outlook expressed by the commenter at Michelle Malkin's place is, in my opinion, quite unwarranted. Can we go back to being the Republic of Texas yet, since our so-called countrymen seem to have thrown the Founders' Republic away for things they didn't earn?
