That's a great post she wrote, but I'm afraid it will fall on deaf ears. I can't imagine people in this country, in significant enough numbers, to rise up and riot or revolt. There's too much complacency. People are too comfortable with their reality TV and "Desperate Housewives."
But if anyone wants to start an underground revolutionary group whose intention is to take back our country from the right-wing religious nutjobs who have hijacked it, just lemme know. I'm in.
Not to be a sourpuss realist, but the right-wing nutjobs have a lot of guns. Unless you've got some giant space robots, your underground revolutionary group won't do much good.
On the other hand, if somebody on the left could be bothered put together a coherent electoral platform, kick the anarchist rioters off of it, and actually put a persuasive message to red state voters... well, then you might get somewhere.

I'm sure there's going to be a breaking point of sorts.
At least, one would hope.
I'd be in too.

Thanks for the link! I appreciate it. :-)
I didn't say it's my revolutionary group. Just, you know, if someone out there decides to start one...
And as for giant robots, well, that's John's department. Giant robots and women in catsuits.
Gosh, there is really much worthwhile data here!
