I totally agree with you. Obama wants to suspend elections. Why do you think the whole country has been arming up for the past 3 years. People are not that stupid.

Tell me, if you can, what their tactics might look like. How do they plan to get around the fact that the right is much more numerous, better armed and trained? Most of the armed forces, law enforcement and veterans are over on this side of the divide.

So, given the melanin content of the skin of the vast majority of the Fleabaggers, our Dear Reader is saying that it’s past time that Americans of Caucasian descent have the same rights as any other Americans?

Just trying to take him seriously for once. (and it’s not working).

He knows he can’t win..he isn’t THAT stupid..he sees the polls and I bet his internal polling is even worse..A carrot could beat Obama in 2012 so he knows the truth..so he is creating anarchy with this class warfare stuff..he knows the far left kooks in this country will do his bidding no matter what he asks them to do..he wants race riots and he wants to destroy capitalism

Meanwhile, the kind of government they're agit-propping for would give those same cops total immunity and license to dole out a very painful summary punishment to anyone who dared do that to a cop car. Seems like a lot of people have very short memories; the dictatorship of the pro-elite-ariat has to be enforced by "tank diplomacy" (e.g. Tiananmen Square).

I'm not really into conspiracy theory, but this Occupy stuff didn't just start up as some grass-roots movement.

It was orchestrated to look that way.

Soros, and yes Obama and other Communists started this, comfortable in the knowledge that the Useful Idiots would come crawling out from under their rocks as soon as the idea was presented.

[Jeff Head]

One marxist, Obama, supporting a bunch of other marxists...his useful idiots.

WHAT OCCUPY WALL STREET IS REALLY ALL ABOUT

Yep.

You see the tactics. It was the same with the agitations for more Government--moving to the Left--in the 1930s. It was the same with the Civil Rights Movement in the 1950s & 1960s, including the terribly destructive Immigration Act of 1965. Agitation, nuisance demonstrations, "peaceful" occupations, etc., all punctuated with constant sloganeering--the standard for the Left for centuries--all intended to bend the perceptions of what is right & wrong, fair & unfair.

Of course, if the economics deteriorates to a point where an actual Nazi or Communist type takeover becomes possible, you might look to the German or Soviet model. But the Left has accomplished a great deal--all very unfortunate if you understand how a healthy society works--simply by altering the social & moral perceptions of susceptible elements of the population.

For a contemporary example of the point. You mention the armed forces. I agree with your statement; yet the Administration has now apparently OK'd the oxymoron of "Gay Marriage," for the military! (At least so, it has been reported in a usually reliable source!) Would that have not seemed utterly preposterous even three years ago?

We have too many people relying upon what seems obvious, rather than fully understanding the tactics of those who actually seek to destroy everything we believe in.
