And when we do revolt, the French revolution will seem tame by comparison.

"Will the American People Finally Revolt?"
I don't believe it's a question if they will revolt, but a question of when?

[brownsfan]

No.
The left knows that shared misery keeps the masses placated. If everyone you know is struggling, then most will accept that as the natural state of being. Americans, in general, are lazy and stupid. They won’t revolt as long as American Idol is on, and the malls are open.

Nope, never.. And you can take that to the bank..

[AAABEST]

Why can’t we have a black guy that thinks like THIS as POTUS?

[Jim W N]

Chairman Obama - a clever imposter sitting as U.S. President.

Signs indicate that he's constitutionally unqualified to be POTUS. If he contiunues evasive action and non-coorperation with legal proceedings and discovery of his origins and birthplace, he should be ousted as soon as possible.

[Da Coyote]

Let us also remember that those of our armed forces who read and understood their oath of office (and it appears that a great many more of them can do this than our congresscritters) - will simply refuse to do anything against the revolt.

Yawn. As long as there is sports,, Wii, Xbox360, boobs and beer there will be no revolution.

It won't be a revolt, it will be a collapse. The people will not rise up, but unable to pay the bribes and distribute the goodies the government will fall down. See the situation in Zimbabwe, North Korea, East Germany or the Soviet Union. By the time the people riot, the game will already be over, and Obama and his cronies will be heading to Switzerland with their bank accounts filled with loot.

“Laissez les bons temps rouler.”

That’s supposed to be Cajun French for “let the good times roll”; but, since I neither read nor write French, Cajun or not, I would change that to the American: “let the bad heads(’rats) roll.

Without a leader you have a mob ... the US is too large so it’d have to be individual states that rebel against the gov’t like in the War Of Succession (Civil War to some people) ....

[smokingfrog]

The government is out of control.
They’re doing too many things they shouldn’t be doing and not doing the things they should be doing. Not to mention the fact that they are spending us into bankruptcy, taxing us to the extreme and killing capitalism.

I’m fed up!

“They won’t revolt as long as American Idol is on, and the malls are open.”

Two of the four major malls around here are becoming a ghost town.

I used to think this way but an awful lot of people are becoming aware.

I have a cafe press bumper sticker that says “no thanks I already have a messiah”. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had double-takes and thumbs-up.

Not with a bang, but a whimper...?

says it all...

Revolt?

Why should anyone want to revolt?

We are so happy and content, we follow orders from our Empirical leader, we gladly offer our first born and daughters to our land owners.

From hangnails to brain tumors regardless of ethnic or age we will all get free healthcare of the highest quality without waiting, and dental too....

nawww, nobody wants to pee in the pool, do a number 2 in bed, we are all one big happy family singing Kumbaya.
