The word “treason” gets thrown around a lot these days, but in this case the shoe absolutely fits.

Tom Tancredo, a former Colorado Congressman and recent Gubernatorial primary loser, has become increasingly vocal about the idea that if Obama isn’t impeached, or better yet, steps down willingly, there will be an armed rebellion in the United States which forces him to do so. Concern-troll Tancredo doesn’t want to see violence, so he is kindly asking the president to consider taking the first option. In other words: blackmailing the freely elected President of the United States by threatening violence against him and his administration. In other-other words: treason.

Right Wing Watch captured Tancredo’s latest rant against Obama, whom he believes is a tyrant because of things like Obamacare and immigration reform. The former politician told Tim Wildmon of the American Family Association that it is imperative that the Republican party go through with impeaching Obama because it’s the only way to get rid of him “short of armed rebellion that everybody constantly – you know, a lot of people, I guess I should say, think to themselves is either coming or a potential – and God knows that’s not something we want to see.”...

...Tancredo writes:

“We are being asked to look away and pretend the Constitution is now being shredded… We must make the case for impeachment to demonstrate that no man is above the law, not even the first black president,” Tancredo wrote. “If we do not make that case, we are betraying the Constitution and degrading our children’s inheritance… Are we really that afraid to challenge presumptuous dictatorial behavior? If so, then the war is already lost and we should all stock our ammunition shelves and join a militia.”

1. Mr Tancredo, your impotence is showing.

Try to keep it in your pants from now on.

2. Obama tell him to kiss your presidential ass!!!!

3. Sure. And if the neo-Confederates could ever put down their Coors Lites, rouse their beer-bellies

out of their armchairs and away from CMT to actually start a 'revolution', would they even have the courage to attack something other than a movie theater or a school yard?

I doubt it.

And if by some alchemical miracle it actually did happen, I'd volunteer to join the Federal counter-insurrection for as long as it takes to send those tough-talking cowards to hell.

Tom Tancredo would look very nice in the reticle of my M1 Abrams tank...

4. So, Tancredo wants a new Civil War?

5. Where is the FBI

6. Don't know about the FBI, but I'm sure the Secret Service has him under their watchful eyes.

If you know about this, so do they.

13. I don't think it's enough that they just "have him under their watchful eyes."

I think this sort of of saying what you want at no expense has gotten dangerous and as you stated is "treasonous", and it's time that a certain "former" congressman who ought to know better should be made an example of.

7. Tommy boy

It must be noted that Tommie did not serve his country during Vietnam...but like the nasty little bug he is ...he used faux mental illness to get out of it, but of course believes others should have to serve...POS...Tom Tancredo.

10. LOL! I didn't know this. It fits, though. Like Rush, Cheney, Rand, Cruz and the rest.

8. Just exactly what "shredding" of the Constitution..

.. has Obama done? I really don't understand their beef. I do know that Shrub wiped his ass with the Constitution and nobody seemed to care at the time.

[Cal33]

14. And wasn't it GW Bush, Jr. who had said that the Constitution was nothing but a sheet of paper?

[Paladin]

9. No one who is familiar with Tancredo's history can be surprised by this.

He's been a drooling madman for years.

[freshwest]

11. His last racist rant at a nearly picnic ground was pathetic...

[Jamaal510]

12. Off to the pokey this guy goes (or should go), then. nt

[WinkyDink]

15. D. Lusional.

[Arkana]

16. Obama: "LOL, nope"

[4dsc]

17. Please don't feed these trolls

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

18. Conservatives want to overthrow democracy and install a rightwing dictatorship

They hate this country, and the draft-dodging Tancredo is the rule, not the exception, in his party.
