In reply to the discussion: Sedition is against the law [View all]Tigress DEM
(7,887 posts)I'm talking about seriously looking at the legal aspects of sedition and applying it to today's world and the planned actions leading to this shutdown from the day Obama took his second term. There was a group that met as soon as Obama was re-elected and started talking about strategies to take him down even if the country came with it.
That isn't politics as usual or simple political rivalry. It may or may not be seditious, but this whole "It ain't gonna happen so don't think about it" attitude leads me to believe you may be a ringer and not a real DEM.
IF any of our DEMs ever try to DESTROY the government from within, I'd hope the rest of US would deal with it ourselves and be right there watching them get their consequences for getting overblown with power.
What do you mean, "ACT like me?" I'm simply talking about an idea of how to legally resolve this issue of a PROVEN obstructionist Congress that has done real damage to the economy and to people in this nation. I WISH they would act like me and only consider reasonable, legal methods of removing Congress Critters who refuse to really represent their constituents.
80% of the population is surviving on 7% of the income of this country. 1% have 40% of that income. What we would really consider middle class is around the top 10-20% Below that people are struggling and unable to get ahead and even making ends meet. People are DYING without healthcare and going to food shelves in record numbers because selfish people have BOUGHT elected officials and "ALEC" anyone wrote laws for those officials to present and get pushed through as law.
AND you want me to give a shit for the poor little misunderstood rethugs and stop talking about something that might hurt their little feelings? You are so lucky you weren't on DU during the wild days. Man this is some TAME stuff compared to when *ush was in office. You have NO IDEA.
