Pathetic is too good of a word for this idiot.

This is really not about the "Arab Spring," which has little or no relevance to American society. Forget for a moment the terminology being used. This is a call for intimidation in the streets, which is not something Americans are accustomed to. In terms of a well educated people, with a large middle-class, this is a call for something analogous to the Ernst Rohm days in pre-National Socialist Germany, where Hitler's cadre of street thugs under the notorious homosexual Rohm's Brown Shirts, literally won a war for the streets in Germany.

Whatever the issues in Egypt--and few of us are really that clear about the players there--the issues in Germany were very much like those in America--a battle between a people's heritage and the supporters of a new order of things, under a consummate demagogue. Obama has used Nazi type tactics in his rallies, right along--the large numbers chanting in unison--being whipped up into nearly hypnotic unity of purpose.

I am not trying to be an alarmist, here. But just what exactly is Gore saying. The Tea Party folk have public rallies where people discuss the actual issues; people make reasoned arguments for maintaining their traditions. This is not equivalent to the mobs in Cairo; but Gore wants to turn the rising of rooted American awareness of what has been happening into a confrontation between Leftist mobs & thinking Americans.

The key point to remember is this. Both the American Left & the Nazi Left are/were compulsion driven to a great extent. The compulsion is a neurotic need for uniformity. You see the local examples at every turn--the very way that the American Left demonizes dissent against more Government, is not a rational response. They do not seek to debate; only to find a way to suppress.

See Compulsion For Uniformity.

The whole "Politically Correct" thing is another example of this; as is the frenzied need to shout down any discussion of the actual differences among peoples, even while they scream for their fantasy view of "diversity." And note, no one but scoundrels & demagogues actually benefits from their efforts to level the population. (Egalitarian Collectivism Sabotages Human Potential.)

Understand this: We are in a war for the America that has been, with people who despise her & us. They feel they may be losing the initiative, and they will not go quietly away. Calls like this are a serious warning--however kookie they may sound to rooted Americans.

I suppose he wants to turn the national mall into Tahrir Square and see George Bush and Dick Cheney in cages, on trial by a kangaroo court

If this spending continues in DC, he can expect the American spring....when we all flood the streets screaming in agony and march on Washington.

The scary thing is Algore has a legion of followers in academia teaching this crap to our kids.
