Admit it, something historic is brewing. And yes, it’s good for America, even the anarchy. Revolution is renewal. Tea-baggers want to take on both parties, “restore honor” and “take back the country.” Bring it on, the feeling’s mutual.
OK, maybe most Americans just silently mimic the words, “we’re mad as hell, won’t take it any more.” But watch out: After November the campaign’s shrill rhetoric explodes into action.
Tea-baggers are kicking the revolution into high gear. Debt is sinking America. Both parties are to blame. So vote out incumbents. Spare no one. We need new leadership, another Reagan or Truman. Congress better get the message: Cut that budget, or they’ll dump the rest of you in the coming Great Purge of 2012.
Unfortunately they’re tone deaf. Congress cannot see past the election. All that changes in November.
So thanks Tea Party, Vegas odds must favor a Second American Revolution. Actually, the revolution is already roaring, hot, it’s about time. The GOP and the Dems had more than a decade. But America’s worse off. We need a real revolution to restore sanity … or we can kiss democracy and capitalism good-bye, permanently.

Send it to every member of the GOP. Hopefully, they read it and listen to the people.
I stop reading any time the author uses the word tea-bagger
Paul sure likes to say “Tea-Baggers”
Beat me by “That much!”
EatB: Be sure and read further.
Cletus: Not after being insulted in the lead-in paragraphs, I won't.
Me too, they are clearly the enemy and not to be trusted.
When I read the article and reached to first reference to “tea-baggers”, I knew there was no point in taking the article seriously.
It appears that we’re about to learn, the hard way, the wisdom of Mr Jefferson: “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”
I’m 56. My father is 80. Both of us are politically active. Neither of us remembers a time in our adult lives even remotely like current events. The history made in the last decade will only be surpassed by the history made in the coming decade.
It’s about what one has come to expect from the soon to be defunct Newspeak. I guess they think their 6 regular subscribers will renew this year if they keep stirring the pot.
I’m glad I’m pissing away my fortune.
Reading further, he’s a moron.
We had a article sometime back on the Ruling Class ...I’ll see if I can find it.
Newsweek hasn’t figured out that parrotting the Leftist talking points is a bad business model, I see.
Ah well, soon you’ll be able to buy Newsweek for $1 and I’m not talking about a single issue. I’m talking about the entire company
When I see the word tea-bagger, I ascribe feltcher to the person using the moniker. Appropriate and equally offensive.
A completely nihilistic prediction. If we have revolution (presumably with some degree of violence) and anarchy follows, the best thing that could happen would be a dissolution of the US. Otherwise, the only cure for anarchy is a hard tyranny imposed by a brutal central authoritarian government.
Count me out of the second possibility.
Awful . . . as a writer, this dude can’t punch his way out of a paper bag. Just poorly-written utter nonsense.
Save America with a Military Coup !
