Just eight months into a Democratic administration, Newsmax is running a piece speculating about a military overthrow of the elected leadership of the United States government. Seriously.
Newsmax columnist John L. Perry encourages his right-wing readers not to "dismiss" the notion of an American military coup as "unrealistic."
America isn't the Third World. If a military coup does occur here it will be civilized. That it has never happened doesn't mean it wont [sic]. Describing what may be afoot is not to advocate it....
Imagine a bloodless coup to restore and defend the Constitution through an interim administration that would do the serious business of governing and defending the nation. Skilled, military-trained, nation-builders would replace accountability-challenged, radical-left commissars. Having bonded with his twin teleprompters, the president would be detailed for ceremonial speech-making.
Military intervention is what Obama's exponentially accelerating agenda for "fundamental change" toward a Marxist state is inviting upon America. A coup is not an ideal option, but Obama's radical ideal is not acceptable or reversible.
In April, a common Republican talking point was the notion that Democrats were creating some kind of "banana republic." In retrospect, the irony is rich.
There is an unmistakable trend in right-wing rhetoric in the direction of extremism and violence. It's not at all healthy, and it's a sign of conservative contingents gone stark raving mad.
What a crock o crap
There’s nothing new under the sun.
Thanks for the ping to both of these good threads.
I would welcome it. I trust most of our military officers far more than I trust anyone in DC and that includes the Republicans. I am coming to the conclusion, that everyone there has lost their minds.
bttt
The comments? I didn’t find them any different than they usually are. Typical moonbats screaming “CALL THE SS”. They say that a million times a day. They think if you say I wish O would take a long walk off a short pier that means the SS should be called. They are deranged. A constant source of enjoyment to me. I love to watch them panic at nothing and I do mean NOTHING.
Excellent post. You said what many are thinking.
Indeed it does! Excellent book. Read it twice.
Indeed! TY for the ping.
It isn’t going to be a military overthrow.
It’s going to be an all out civil war, and the vast majority of the military is going to side with those of us who seek to restore the Republic.-

Unfortunately, I agree. They hate us, we hate them and I do mean HATE. The cultural divide grows each day, as does resentment. There is no turning back, no meeting of the minds, it’s only going to get worse. Eventually the pot will boil over, something will trigger it and all hell is going to break lose. The military will get involved, will split, most on the side of the conservatives. It will be bloody and we can only pray UN troops are not brought in. If so, welcome to hell on earth.
Seriously, did these DUmmies notice the millions of weapons and billions of rounds that’ve been stockpiled just since October of last year?! Who’s going to blitzkreig us?

Ammo sales are still insane. I can’t even imagine how many guns and how much ammo has been stockpiled just since November.
Agree. The wondering and waiting is too draining.
Nothing of the sort will happen,
Hey! Watch it, fella. I resemble that!
If modern America's Man on Horseback is out there, Get on the damn horse already!
We’ll wake up one morning and things will be like they’ve never been before.

I agree. It will be sort of like 9/11. You go to bed, wake up, and all hell has broken loose.
The only thing I can find in 9mm at Wally-World is a brand called “Blazin’ Brass” at $9 for a box of 50 rounds. Anyone know anything about this brand? I’ve already bought one box because it’s all I could find.
Kind of like King John signing the “Magna Carta” with armed knights surrounding him? Possibly! That seemed to settle old King John down a bit, didn’t it? Hmmm...maybe it could work on Obama. Maybe that would scare him and his other fellow tyrants, and they would hopefully settle down as well!

and if it’s on the website and you order it, you will get it, unlike many other sites. I had 45 acp on back order at Cabela’s for months. I finally told them to forget it.
