What's this story about The Guardians of Free Republic Threatening Governors
to step down. Also for other governments officials to resign or face violence it's a breaking story on CNN.

LOL! It doesn't appear this has anything to do with FR.com, but that makes it hilarious and it's going to infuriate them!

4. There are few things scarier,,,
than an uneducated boob with a copy of Black's Law Dictionary.

This crowd brought a bill in the NH House a few years ago. It went on about a "lost" or "suppressed" 14th Amendment (no, not that one) that would strip citizenship from anyone who accepted a title of nobility from a foreign country.

In their scheme of things, all lawyers would be made non-citizens, since "esquire" is a title bestowed by the English crown.

Seeing as my grandmother's family had an arms cache under the kitchen table during the Irish uprising, I don't think that my use of "Esq." fits into their scenario...

10. Absolutely!
Early Floyd is the best! The video to that tune was one of the very first music videos I remember seeing.

6. I have an idea
Lets create an organization and call it "Real America" . Then write a letter to every single republican congress person and ask nicely that they resign. Tell them we are tired of their obstructionism. We are tired of their blocking sensible bills for the good of America. And we are tired of them supporting hate and violence, urging tea bags to commit violence on democrats. Of them starting wars, creating bills to benefit corporations. Taking money hand over fist from those same corporations.

And since they sat on their ass the whole of last year, did not vote, would not vote, obstructed others who wanted to vote, return their money back to the US treasury so it can be distributed back to help the rest of the country. And be sure not for them and their families not to go to any doctor in the country because we will revoke their health insurance. If they don't work, they can't get paid. Tell them they have three weeks to resign and we would love for them to leave the country and go to one of those places where they have a dictator, like bush tried in his eight years of stolen office. They seem to enjoy that type of country. Tell them we, unlike them, do not promote violence so please make this orderly and quick as possible.
