Republican candidate calls for coup and/or civil war if GOP loses in November

[LuckyTheDog]

If the Congress doesn’t dramatically change its complexion and significantly increase its courage, then the military is our next resort and recourse. Now if the military won’t act, then we will have to act, “we the people.” This may require the blood of thousands of patriots, but we’ve been told for how many years that that’s what nourishes the tree of liberty?

(SNIP)

This is way beyond treason here. We’re talking about war. We’re talking about total war. Obama and his gangsters are waging war against the United States. If there’s anything from this interview that I want to get out, it is that Obama, his gangsters, his regime, and his fellow travelers, handlers and lackeys are engaged in war against us and the United States, and they intend to destroy the United States. That’s what their “fundamental change” means: the destruction of the United States, and that is warfare. These people are committing war crimes, and they have to immediately be taken into custody. They do.

(SNIP)

We’re going to put them in jail or wherever they need to go. It’s not politics; it’s counterinsurgency, and we have to win this one, or the lights go out.

I sincerely think this guy is just crazy enough to say out loud what ther Republicans are saying in whispers. We need to take this kind of talk seriously.

1. Fine, you can have some red states, you asshole. Then when you're totally broke

and drowning in natural disasters, you can try to come begging to the well-off blue states for help. And we'll tell you to go FYE)*Y@U#)($U yourselves.

[cloudbase]

2. I'm sure he'll

be leading the charge.

[saltpoint]

3. I will vote with great pleasure for Democrats over

any Republican there is.

There's no incentive in voting for obstructionist assholes, which is the definition of a Republican these days.

[flvegan]

4. Pulling out the ole tree of liberty again, are they?

:eyes:

[izquierdista]

21. That would be the one with the "strange fruit" on it

5. Oh it's this dipshit again

I'm glad it's the same guy I read about a month or so back because I would be really worried if there were two people as insane and vocal as this guy.

[LuckyTheDog]

9. Be afraid

There are others willing to push things that far. Take a look at this:

25. There are goopers all over calling for treason but leading Democrats won't make a stink about it.

We must sleep walk through this election. Making a stink about the GOP's treason would be:

IMPOLITE.

Can't have that.


After all. Only Republicans charge treason.


It's not something Democrats are allowed to do.


We're not allowed to be nationalistic.

[Newest Reality]

6. It is a useful deflection, as well!

Gosh forbid that the people united and turned on the oligarchy rather than focusing on a government that is becoming more predominantly a division of Big Business Inc.

Though this may be a good way to gather votes from the willfully ignorant, it sure serves as great agitprop and a way to keep the class war completely off the table.

[JoePhilly]

7. No way this nut wins the GOP primary ... sadly

[pinboy3niner]

8. Treason, genius, is taking up arms against the duly-elected government of the U.S.

How can these nuts who read the Constitution and even cite it utterly fail to understand it?

And to talk so casually about civil war? This, obviously, is someone who has never seen war, or even studied our own Civil War history. And in the revolution he advocates, I guarantee he will not be taking his place on the front lines.

[Webster Green]

10. He's totally unhinged. Reading just a little made me want to call the FBI.

I suppose I should, just in case they haven't noticed him yet.

[Historic NY]

18. just forward the website...this guy is unhinged.

[safeinOhio]

11. So much for a Democratic Republic.

"In monarchy the crime of treason may admit of being pardoned or lightly punished, but the man who dares rebel against the laws of a republic ought to suffer death"
Samuel Adams

[rustydog]

12. So, this Republican candidate who so strongly supports the

Constitution and believes in the power of the ballot box wants to toss the results aside if they don't win?

Effing cowardly bastards are really getting to me. They have talkin' trash down pat.

I'd love to see one in a good old fashioned knock-down drag-out fist fight. NONE of them have the balls to pick up the gun and lead the charge they car clamoring for. NONE of these bastards are willing to spill THEIR blood to water the tree of Freedom, no fucking way, they are too gutless.

They can only incite violence. Chicken-shit cowards....The GOP base love them to pieces.

[Amonester]

13. Where was that nitwit between Jan. 2001 and Dec. 2008?!?

Cheerleading his own war criminals, I guess.

Civil war, eh? Methinks the National Guard will not treat him too well...

[nadinbrzezinski]

14. To anybody not taking this seriously

the last time around it wasn't too much fun, and indeed THOUSANDS died.

[spin]

15. It irritates the hell out of me ...

when some fool decides that the only solution to our problems is to have a revolution.

I think both Democrats and Republicans are upset with Congress and the fact that they pass 2000 page bills without being allowed enough time to read them. I also believe that most Americans feel that too many of the people we elect are bought and paid for by the big corporations. It would be nice if the people we elect would put the voters first. If we get angry enough to show up at the polls, we can elect some people who will.

Our history has had similar times in the past and our system has functioned to allow change without revolution. As long as we can vote and our votes aren't stolen by hacked computer voting machines, we can overcome the problems we face today. We don't live under a tyrant or a dictatorship.

We are nowhere near a time where a revolution should be considered.

16. Everyone Here At DU Should Read This Interview Of This Guy.......

(follow the link in the original post). This guy is a wackadoodle. But what scares me even more are the comments by the people that support him that appear after the printed interview. Someone asked in an above post - where was he when BushCo was in charge. Basically everything he is saying about Obama - if you just changed the name to Bush in its place - applies to BushCo.

Some of the people that made comments are referring to Obama as Oilbama. Wow!!!! I just can't believe that there are people out there that can read and interview and see this guys comments - and still follow him.

[MadMaddie]

17. Soooooooo insurection?

They are going to lose in November so folks get ready for the Wild Wild West!

They are scaring moderates away with the crazy talk.

The Right wing scream machine will be at it's loudest we have ever seen. Just wait...

[Mnemosyne]

19. "change its complexion", right to the point racist asshole, eh? n/t

[SpiralHawk]

20. Republicon cannot deal with the reality that Americans reject them

Sheesh - poor frikkin chickenhawk republicon losers.

[spanone]

22. treason

[political_Dem]

23. Where's the Dept. of Homeland Security when you need them?

After all, aren't they supposed to go after terrorism, foreign or domestic?

[SalmonChantedEvening]

24. Arrest him. Now.

This is treason.

[JCMach1]

26. They are not whispering this... I have heard comments like this all the time on my brief forays

surfing the dial since I have been home here in the U.S.

This is position of the radical right and what they are preaching at the moment.

[bemildred]

27. Bring it. nt

[gratuitous]

28. The very definition of a dictator

Someone who couldn't win a free and fair election is a dictator. And this fellow seems to have so little faith in the United States and its Constitution that if he isn't just handed the reins of power, he'll take them by force. There is a word for people like that. And a criminal charge.

[arbusto_baboso]

29. Can we start arresting these assholes now?

It stops being free speech when it starts being seditious speech. Just sayin'.

[Ganja Ninja]

30. Bring it on muther fucker!

:mad: I'm sick of this shit!

[Catshrink]

31. Insurgents are the losers, not the winners you ignoramus.

And you will be a sore loser. One wonders what you did when you didn't get your own way when growing up or did mommy give in to you all the time so you never learned to deal with being a loser?

[GoneOffShore]

32. There is a whole of crazy there.

That site is almost as bad as freakrepublic.

[Arkana]

33. Bring it on, teafuckers.

I want them to shit their pants at the sight of heavily-armed Secret Service agents.

[Doctor_J]

34. Oh, please, oh, please

I would rather have it out with them than have Beck take over piece by piece.

[WinkyDink]

35. This is against the law.
