Conclusion:
Some of us already have lines in the sand that would inspire us to resist abuses of authority. And that, right there, is something our would-be masters fearour disobedience. What will happen? And when? Nobody has a crystal ball. But the combination of public frustration and governmental apprehension is an explosive one. Someday, somebody will light the match.

It may take the form of some states seceding.

We need civil insurrection. The system is corrupt, and the people are slaves in a soft tyranny that many of us can no longer stomach. Hussein Obama will light the match that causes an explosion. If its not health care, it will be something eles. I cant wait! The slaves need to rise up and show Obama, Pelosi, and the rest that we are actually the masters!

I thought for sure, the action in Florida against Granny would trigger violence. IMO it’s comming.

Everyone suspects bloodshed is coming. People just do not know in what precise form it will appear. I still think there will be some riots late this summer.

Do some conservatives secretly wish for the assassination of Barack Obama?

Historically, well-fed, well-entertained populations don't revolt. I'd be surprised if it were any different this time.
Want to revolt against something? Revolt against the two party monopoly. That's what brought you to this point.
Conspiracy theories aside, the ballot box is where you make the difference. And if your horse has an R or D beside its name, you can expect more of the same.
Break the two party stranglehold, and you'll make real headway.

I can think of few courses of action that would be more counterproductive.

I prefer this line from 'Open Range': "Well you may not know this, but there's things that gnaw on a man worse than dying."

I dissagree.
history shows that great civilizations die with a fizzle. they slip quietly into manifest destiny.
Our present culture has been properly primed and prepped for this "Change" and the layers of law enforcement will catalyze it

What about groups like ACORN who cheat?
Even if there were a 3rd party that could win, the results would look *Iranian*.

"The Iranian populace is not heavily-armed." Aside from sticks and stones, mot at all. So that leads us back to the question; when is it time for civil unrest?
We already know we're getting screwed.
What happens if the health care is nationalized, amnesty is passed, gun confiscation is enacted?
What will finally break the proverbial camel's back?
When do WE make OUR intentions CLEAR?
