Good points but it must go further: Every politician who supports this putsch or does not actively fight it should be removed from office at the earliest possible opportunity, whether by scheduled elections, allegations of misconduct, lawsuits, etc. Every politician from a safe district, such as Pelosi, Frank and others should spend the rest of their political careers facing loud and assertive demonstrations whenever they show their faces in public. Let them be virtual prisoners in Washington DC. Those who oppose this legislation should boycott all organizations which support it, including all mainstream media, retailers, banks, investment companies, unions, etc. Celebrities and others who lent their “prestige” to the putsch should be boycotted. If a party “repents” and makes an effort to reverse the situation, it might be forgiven but it is time we put our money and convenience where our mouths are.
Until supporters of this travesty see swift and painful retaliation (no, I’m not talking violence here), they will not fear the consequences of their actions. Let there be public demonstrations, Halls of Shame, boycott lists, slogans, political contributions, volunteer time and more to convince the politicians and their willing accomplices that, like the Republican mascot the elephant, we do not forget. Let them be like Admiral Yamamoto who suspected the Pearl Harbor attack merely wakened a sleeping tiger.
