What will fuel the fire of revolution in this country would be attempts to shut down free speech such as the Fairness Doctrine. If the millions of people who listen to conservative talk radio are forced to look to shortwave or satellite radio broadcasts from foreign countries for uncensored news and opinion that would incite many to say enough is enough. The other flash point would be attempts to disarm the populous whether through some roll back of the Second Amendment by a liberal packed SCOTUS or through exorbitant taxes on guns and ammunition.

The scenario I could see play out would be a popular armed coup that would overthrow Congress and the President. I would see the US military participating and leading this coup.

Obama and the liberal Congress are sitting on a powder keg any if they continue down the road to socialism will ignite it.

I have to disagree here. I think the necessary ingredient for revolution is hunger. And that could be in the cards.

Regarding the Fairness Doctrine - that actually might work more to the advantage of conservatism than of liberalism. After all, the liberals currently own all media with the exception of talk radio. (I would hope to be the first to file a law suit, in fact.)

What's good for the goose ...

I never thought that I would look forward to such a day, but I am, now. How I wish that an enlightened, Pinochet type (Petraeus?) would send the Congress packing and Obozo back to his community organizing.
