Republican congressional candidate Stephen Broden stunned his party Thursday, saying he would not rule out violent overthrow of the government if elections did not produce a change in leadership.
In a rambling exchange during a TV interview, Broden, a South Dallas pastor, said a violent uprising "is not the first option," but it is "on the table." That drew a quick denunciation from the head of the Dallas County GOP, who called the remarks "inappropriate."
Broden, a first-time candidate, is challenging veteran incumbent Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson in Dallas' heavily Democratic 30th Congressional District. Johnson's campaign declined to comment on Broden.
In the interview, Brad Watson, political reporter for WFAA-TV (Channel 8), asked Broden about a tea party event last year in Fort Worth in which he described the nation's government as tyrannical.
"We have a constitutional remedy," Broden said then. "And the Framers say if that don't work, revolution."
Watson asked if his definition of revolution included violent overthrow of the government. In a prolonged back-and-forth, Broden at first declined to explicitly address insurrection, saying the first way to deal with a repressive government is to "alter it or abolish it."

“When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”
This is what I have been ranting about for months without a clean sweep including the RINOs there will be NO change and no hope.
Everyone seems to think that the great tsunami that appears to becoming in November for the Republicans will change everything and I agree that it will just not in the way they think. IMHO such a great victory will in the end be equal to South Carolinas firing on Fort Sumter. The DemonRATs and the leftist will go to the mattresses and war will breakout.
Does Obama/Pelosi/Reed or their kind seem like people who can take even such a dramatic loss gracefully? Do they seem like people who can or will learn from a loss and correct their course accordingly? DO they even seem SANE? Nancy is already bragging about how she will still be the Speaker after the election. Havent they shown time and time again that they will go to any lengths for revenge?
So many seem to think that Novembers elections are some Magic Wand that will wipe away our troubles! Let me tell you after such a win (if it happens) the REAL TROUBLE WILL BEGIN!
Yes the Republicans will more than like to score big this November, but will the DemonRATs learn anything? Hell NO! For that matter will the RINOs learn anything? Just read from any number of articles on ODonnells win, look at what Rove and Snowe have said, look at what Murkowski and Crist are doing, look at how the Republican Leadership of RINOs allowed Murkowski to keep her committee positions! Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell is already saying that he and his GOP colleagues have no intention whatsoever to repeal ObamaCare! Do not these acts show you what will be learned from such a victory, LITTLE if anything! The Elitist Jerks of both parties are scrambling for their political lives and they know it!
Oh you say but those DemonRATs up for re-election in 2012 will learn fear, they will be scared to the middle. First the middle of the road is where you get run over! Being in the middle of the road is what got the Republicans butt kicked in 2008! Some say oh they wont pass anything with the the people so opposed to them, to which I say, BS! DO any of you remember the crowds that surrounded Congress during the Obamacare vote? Did it scare them?
Look about you its not only the DemonRATs but the RINOs as well who refuse to see that they have brought, supported and passed an agenda that the American People have rejected. They still feel that they know best and any defeat will only come about due to the ignorance of the electorate.
I have posted this before and I will keep posting it (I am beginning to feel like Paul Revere: THE RADICAL PROGRESSIVES AND THE RINOS ARE COMING! THE RADICAL PROGRESSIVES AND RINOS ARE COMING!) because I know in my heart that I am right about this, too many are thinking that the upcoming November elections are going to reset everything. And I say that NO matter how bad November is for the DemonRATs you can bet that Zero and his kind will not only press on with their agenda but DOUBLE DOWN on it! And now it looks as if there will be RINOs looking for their revenge from getting their butts kicked out that will join them.
I dont believe that the November elections will immediately change a thing! The Washington creatures both Democrat and RINO still believe that they know best and will act accordingly.
Even if there is the BIGGEST turnover in history this November the Obama/Pelosi/Reid triad are such a pack of narcissist that they will come back during the lame duck session and pass every far left-wing bill they can think of! They will burn the house down before they surrender it! If they cant drink from the well they will poison it for all! If they cant keep it they will surround it with mines and keep anyone else from getting to it! That will be their reaction.
Even after the lame duck session you will see the greatest attempt by any President in our history to rule by executive order! Zero KNOWS BEST what is good for us and he will act accordingly. No mere election won by a bunch of peasants or as Zero describe us: Bitter Clingers (And its not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who arent like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.) is going to change his direction. To Zero such a election will hold no meaning and only be the peasants acting out and he knows what is best for those bitter clingers and he will do it to save them from themselves!
If anyone thinks that a big loss in November will make one iota of difference in Obama and the DemonRATs leftist agenda you need to seek professional help immediately, because I assure you that the sounds you will hear coming from them after such a lost will not be the wailing and gnashing of teeth it will be the notes of El Degüello.

IMHO the November elections will NOT provide the immediate relief we think, but will instead it will be the dropped gauntlet the slap across the face the challenge that will bring us to what I call a National Battle of Athens moment (http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~tnnews/kns001.htm )
A time in which it will require much more action that punching a ballot to save the Republic. There is so little middle ground left and what there is, is shrinking every day.
IMHO there will soon be a time of great choosing and you will be required to make a stand to: Choose this day how you will serve; Will you serve unwillingly and at the bidding of others wearing the yoke of socialism or will you hold true to the course of our forefathers standing tall and serving freely? As for me I choose to SERVE THE REPUBLIC!
Its not something to take lightly but he is correct.
Very true. It’s also not something that should remain unspoken, publicly anyway. Especially if you are running for Congress. lol
You mean we can’t just get in the boxcars like before? We might resist? Really. The GOP was right there to denounce any resistance. Thank goodness for the GOP.
If that happens, expect the troops to wipe out the citizens. That is, if the citizens are descendents of Europeans.
The chance of a revolution is almost non-existent. The country has a possible foreigner leading it, and no substantial protest has been registered so far. It has asked for 0’s BC but not demanded it — his stonewalling of the question has lulled everyone to sleep again.
How can a country have a revolution when it cannot be certain or even care who the leader of the opposition is?
Got to be careful saying things like that,for compassionate R’s will insist on laying down instead,The Rats are pushing us for a manual reset here.
If he were in my district... I’d vote for him... twice!

FYI, the percentage of foreign born soldiers in the US military would stun most Americans. I’m not talking about officier’s I’m talking about the grunts and NCO’s. It’s ESL during Basic Training. How do you think we got Major Hussan.
Jerry Pournelle pointed out that that is actually a true statement, because the compentent don't wait that long.
