Operation American Spring falls flat

It never ceases to amaze me just how delusional the right wing nut cases can be at times. Retired Army Col. Harry Riley, called upon millions of patriots to march upon Washington D.C. to remove Obama, Biden, Reid, McConnell, Boehner, Pelosi, and Attorney General Holder from Office. He has termed it “OPERATION AMERICAN SPRING – Beginning Of Tyranny Housecleaning. He projected that between 10 million and 30 million would come from around the nation and converge on the downtown capital city streets outside the White House and Capitol Building. He never explained who would run the country after everyone was forced out. I guess he doesn't think that far ahead.

How many showed up? About 250. These morons fully expected 30 MILLION people, that would be one tenth of the population of the US would show up. Did he ever give any thought how to house and feed 30 MILLION people all at once?

And these people wonder why they lose elections.

They need better publicists. I never heard of it. That would have made it 251.

Yeah, you could have posted a visiting providers ad in DC, under glory holes.

Someone needs to inform "colonel Harry Riley" that this is not the Ukraine, or some shit hole bannana republic.
We remove persons from office by things they call elections.

If he doesn't like that method, he can take his sorry ass to what ever cess pool in the World fits his views.

I find it numerous that so many wackos--typically the RW variety but not always--make sure their military title is very visible when they rant about "curing the political ills". Scary that this guy supposedly made Colonel but still believes we should be led by a military "savior". I wonder if he spent time in the Libyan army with uncle Moamar?

Nicely put JS.

Well, I'm sure it still entertained the tourists.

Here is a great scene that personifys this entire subject.

I have news for you (I'm back!), these people don't win elections because they don't run any candidates. I think you are very confused. You think these people are the Tea Party or something. They are not.

This is not my idea of how a revolution begins (and apparently most other people as well). My idea is that the regular people and local governments just stop taking orders from Washington DC. Let Washington fire the first shot or step aside.

Like the original revolution, it doesn't take a majority. Far from it. A motivated minority could force DC into action that would convince others to join the cause overnight. Why do you think Lincoln is looked upon favorably for Fort Sumter. He got the South to fire first by provoking them into action. Once that happened he had the moral high ground not just in the US but overseas in Britain as well.

Tell me what would have been the result if the federal government had fired into the crowd outside the Bundy ranch last month? Other than the probability that the federal forces would have probably been overrun with a high cost of life. Think about Kent State with two armed factions.

I seriously doubt if Federal forces would have been over run. First the Bundy bunch were hiding behind the women like a bunch of cowards. If the Feds had opened fire they would have peed their pants and run.

I am for the Constitution first, and foremost.
