DETROIT, MI—On Meet the Press Sunday, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer reminded everyone that "revolutions and revolts are simply un-American."
Whitmer called on the protesters in her state to stop their illegal assembling, reminding them that protesting so-called tyranny is a foreign idea to the history of the United States.
"Protesting and revolting against your wise rulers goes against everything America was built on," she said. "It flies in the face of every American tradition. Revolting against tyranny has no place in this great country."
Governor Whitmer then rattled off a long list of things that she also believes to be un-American:
* Declaring independence from tyrants"If you're really Americans, you'll stop with this dangerous revolutionary activity," she concluded.* Having a list of protected rights
* Separation of powers
* Democratically elected leaders
* Freedom of religion, assembly, the press, protests, and speech.
* Federalism
* Apple pie
* Baseball
* America
Democrats are evil.
“...Democrats are evil....”
They’ve certainly proved it over the past weeks, that’s for darn sure.
The battle cry is: “REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER!!!”
do NOT vote for a single, solitary democrat for anything...from dogcatcher on up. Nada...not a one.
Friends don’t let friends vote democrat!
I admit I got caught by the headline.
Good one, BB.
Years ago I observed that Monty Python skits were meant to be comedy, not a How To Run the World.
Now there’s very little lag time between satire and Left wing stupidity.
I don’t think the 3 worst offending governors in this mess are up for reelection in 2020,2021 is long way off, people forget, too easily.
Hopefully not this time.
It’s funny... I saw the title of the thread and thought, “Figures” and kept scrolling. I came back to it to read it and only then realized it was from the Bee.
We live in some darned turbulent times.
Did the people of Michigan elect yet another Canadian liberal as governor?
Like Dan Rather once said, “It’s fake, but accurate.”
Whew! I had to go back to read the source.
Exactly my thought.
That’s how the Bill of Rights came about. There was nothing to protect us from a tyrannical government.
How James Madison Saved the Constitution This Month by Writing the Bill Of Rights
Has this moron ever heard of the Declaration of Independence?
The DNC is in so much trouble.
A presidential candidate who gets lost in his basement and a VP who has never read the Constitution.
So in 1776 Witless would have been ratting out her neighbors into to the British?
“Truth is always stranger than fiction”
I give you Gretchen Whitmer and rest my case.
The Constitution was approved conditional upon the addition of a Bill of Rights which didn't happen until 1791...two years after Washington became President.
See the Avalon Project for the Constitutions of each state.
Me too.
Is it really?
