Yeah lets help Barry convince the American people they are isolated in their thinking...
lets not encourage people that most of the country agree we should not go to war with Syria...
lets have that pesty 1st Amendment “right of the people peaceably to assemble and to petition the government for redress of grievances” ignored...
HEY !!! Kid !!!
Its American to voice our opinion amnd what we want OUT LOUD where everyone can see us...
Its long over due...
Would you call the disabled American veterans of WWI who camped outside the White House demanding help and medical aid and jobs in what became known as Hooverville leftists ???
The rule by mob is in my White House...
Barry and his henchmen are trying to take us into a war from which there will be no turning back..
Its unConstitutional for a president to do what the boy king is attempting to do...
You do remember the Constitution dont you ???
LOUD is what is called for...

More accurately, we are governed by an Administration of unscrupulous ideologues. But this is a democratic republic. The people have the power of free speach and right to exercise the citizens’ franchise. We are not yet a Third World banana republic, and I would prefer to keep it that way.
Organizing baying mobs to shake fists at the Capitol Building is not the proper way to effect change. Calling your congressman's or senator's office and expressing your thoughts, writing letters to the editor, gathering on the village green with picket signs: these are the actions of active citizens in a democracy. Conversely, unsubtle threats of violence are the tactics of the Left: ‘no justice, no peace,’ and similar nonsense. Let us refrain from this.
If I were a “kid” it is unlikely that I would express this view. Indeed, I am not and have lived through the disorder of the Sixties and the despair of the Seventies. I have seen how high the price of freedom was for people who actually lived under totalitarian governments, as Solzhenitsyn did. Therefore, I wish to preserve our Republic, a government that rules by the will of the people and abides by the rule of law. Introduction of rule by the largest and most potentially destructive mob will only lead to chaos, followed by tyranny. Count me out.
More accurately, we are governed by an Administration of unscrupulous ideologues.

totalitarians. Same difference.
The system no longer works.
There is little citizen franchise. Look at the last voting irregularities.
We are a banana republic...in the making.
