Wingnuts on Democrats: “If you can’t beat `em, shoot `em.”

I love that! Thanks for the slogan, lgm. Bumper sticker, anyone?

By definition, the government has access to the entire military might our country can bring to bear.

I would question exactly what “power” this clown thinks he can bring about? I’m sure none of them are pleasant.

LtCol P said (#37):

Free citizens prefer also the power persuasion and the ballot; but if those fail we can roll to the 2nd Amendment.

“[W]e prefer to use the power of persuasion, but if that doesn’t work we use the persuasion of power.”

Indeed! Free citizens prefer also the power persuasion and the ballot; but if those fail we can roll to the 2nd Amendment.

Hey, all you pikers!
We’re doing a marathon on the thread for “Don’t Taze Me Bro’” on previous entry page.
Trying to hit 3,000 messages in a thread.
You have nothing better to do, right? LOL

Sounds like he’s trying to use some Jedi mind-sh!t. Whatever, dude. You’d be better off with a really stinky fart.

That sounds like the quote of the day to me! Ha!

How much power will they have after they get booted from office?

Only as much as they can “buy” from their prison cells. They could buy extra privileges for candy and cigarettes, but Big Bertha and Bad Bart will probably have the power over everything else, if you know what I mean.

On a quick break here and wanted to post a quote by SEIU president and Friend of Obama Andy Stern for you to contemplate as the White House bully boys try to salvage Dear Leader’s legislative agenda.

From p. 220 of the book:

Asked about his organizing philosophy, Andy Stern summed it up this way: “[W]e prefer to use the power of persuasion, but if that doesn’t work we use the persuasion of power.”

Don’cha just love the post-partisan hopenchange?

Listening to Michelle on Beck for the second time tonight.Only two problems–her segment was too short and Glen talks too much.
I am one of those people who often thinks we are doomed, although I always advise others that you “eat an elephant one bite at a time”,maybe I should take my own advice.
Thank you,Michelle for pointing that out to me by mentioning Rattner.That is the first bite.

He was talking about labor/management relations! That’s how labor unions should work — try to negotiate but maintain the threat of a strike. MM, this was beneath you. You are smart enough to know this already.

He was talking about power. You are smart enough to know that. Yes, even you.
