Careful what you wish for. Military dictatorship will not be any better for any one.

If the military did march on Washington and clean house so we could reset the gov’t, it would not work. We would have elections and the same morons would get to the same place.

The only thing we can hope for is that the states get hit so hard by the Feds that they call a constitutional convention or ratify ammendments.

Otherwise, we are all screwed eventually.

IMHO a constitutional convention is the last thing we would want.

For one example - Do you think something like the 2nd ammendment would survive a rewrite of the constitution when we have an electorate dumb enough to elect Obama twice? When we have federal, state and local governments rushing to use the reaction to the recent school shooting to pass more gun control laws?

Imagine what a new constitution written and approved by our current moocher, politically correct culture would look like,

Oh no, no constitutional convention, no sir. Not with the current make-up of the country and states. A new Constitution would read like a thousand-page-long transcript of Occupy Wall Street protest speeches and would completely and perfectly invert “rights” and “wants” just for starters.
