What Happens When Your Armed Insurrection Gets to Town?

Seriously guys? Armed rebellion? Are you kidding me?

Eight years of George W. Bush, and American liberals threatened to move to Canada or Scandinavia. We actually have friend who moved to Latin America — that’s really taking your position seriously, IMHO.

But here’s the deal folks: Bush won the election in 2004 (and sort of in 2000). Obama and the Democrats won in 2008. Fucking deal with it.

You can’t claim to be for democracy if you don’t accept that sometimes your side loses. That’s part of the bargain. My side lost consistently from about 1994 – 2008. That’s a lot of losing, but you know what — I lived through it. I played video games, watched TV, hung out with friends and family, ate dinner, that sort of thing. I lived through it and so can you.

And let’s say for the sake of argument that rather than pulling a Timothy McVey or Eric Rudolph and attacking “the enemy” in their own red states, that the new militia movement gets organized enough to send a group of fat middle-aged dads armed with hunting rifles and semi-automatic assault rifles down to DC, what do you guys think will happen when you get to town? The night Obama won, I saw something like 200,000 people on the streets of D.C. march down to Lafayette Park to tell Bush not to let the door hit him in the ass on the way out.

Do these people honestly think they can just invade a city where President Obama has something like a 100% approval rating? Are they insane?

Seriously, they should go back to playing Call of Duty: World at War online, and then when they’re done feeling like they actually lived through World War II, they should work on getting their guys elected. Be adults instead of whiny, pathetic little babies who can’t deal with the fact that five million more people supported our guy than supported theirs.

Because these dreams of rebellion just aren’t very realistic. And secession– without the blue state federal gravy train, how would the south pay the bills? Get real.
