Circle the date on your calendar, kids

Speaking of 'bunches of people', it appears that the walking Poe's Law generator known as the far, far American right has their bestest idea yet: OPERATION AMERICAN SPRING – Beginning Of Tyranny Housecleaning, May 16, 2014, completion to be determined

Concept of Operations:
Phase 1 - Field millions, as many as ten million, patriots who will assemble in a non-violent, physically unarmed (Spiritually/Constitutionally armed), display of unswerving loyalty to the US Constitution and against the incumbent government leadership, in Washington, D.C., with the mission to bring down the existing leadership. Go full-bore, no looking back, steadfast in the mission.

Phase 2 - One million or more of the assembled 10 million must be prepared to stay in D.C. as long as it takes to see Obama, Biden, Reid, McConnell, Boehner, Pelosi, and Attorney General Holder removed from office. Consistent with the US Constitution, as required, the U.S. Congress will take appropriate action, execute appropriate legislation, deal with vacancies, or U.S. States will appoint replacements for positions vacated consistent with established constitutional requirements.

Phase 3 – Those with the principles of a West, Cruz, Dr. Ben Carson, Lee, DeMint, Paul, Gov Walker, Sessions, Gowdy, Jordan, should comprise a tribunal and assume positions of authority to convene investigations, recommend appropriate charges against politicians and government employees to the new U.S. Attorney General appointed by the new President.


Are you excited? I'm excited.

How to uphold the constitution

Step 1: Depose lawfully elected members of the government by force

Step 2: Replace with people not elected to those positions

Step 3: ????

I believe step 3 is profit.

No, step 4 is profit, after 3. ????.

Well shit. I thought this was a satircal onion type piece.

Shit's getting harder and harder to distinguish these days.

Pretty soon we're going to have to all stop laughing at that responses to the onion articles page because we'll all be on something similar :P

If they get more than a thousand I will be shocked.

Same here.

Why do they hate democracy?

I would love to see one million people try to stay in D.C. until 2017 or longer. I hope they realize what they're signing up for.

What do they have against McConnell and Boehner? Do they just want to appear balanced, or are those two guys not far enough to the right?

What do they have against McConnell and Boehner?

They compromised too much and are thus traitors and heretics.

This campaign ad against Boehner shows some of the spirit
of the opposition.

Hopefully this will pan out like all of the other "we will descend on Washington in the millions" events of the past few years, and less than a hundred guys will show up, stand around shouting for a few hours, and then go home claiming victory while we all laugh at them.

Yep.

Me, too.

I love how they try to play it off as it's welcome to all parties, as a non partisan rally, yet there's not a single TP'er they want to throw out....

Gosh as long as we're going to bring folks up on charges in a kangaroo people's court, could we add some war criminals to the roster? Specifically, George the younger and Dick Cheney.

If they're going unarmed, what power do they have to enforce their agenda? Don't they have jobs?

Typical cognitive disconnect. You people often ask me why I am so into American politics even after I fled the country. This is the best entertainment available anywhere.

This is exactly Kiev scenario, without Molotov cocktails.

Or legitimate reason, or actual support.
