Real Wingnuts Don’t Want a Revolution
In spite of the the fact that high profile wingnuts like Glen Beck and Michelle Bachman keep saying that they want to revolt against the government – I don’t think that the rank and file nutbags really want to revolt.
I think what they really want is just some excuse to shoot up a whole bunch of Liberals, Mexicans, and/or black people. A revolution would be like work. Shooting people would be fun.
This is from Eschaton, but this kind of unhindged hyper-volient wingnuttery is all around us.
Funny But Scary Too
Red State comments thread:The Key Is Not To Fire The First Shot
IJB Wednesday, April 1st at 12:52AM EDT (link)The Other Side will have to do that.
It probably means a nice family somewhere, or maybe even a whole town, will have to get mowed down by the Obamabots.
But, and this key – if they fire the first shot, we make sure we fire the last shot.
It sure would be nice if some decent Republican leader got a spine and called out some of this un-American craziness. I know it is a dream, but it would be nice.
I think most of this is hot air and it will pass. I think Glenn Beck is like the leader of an apocalyptic cult, and when his bleak vision fails to come true, people will turn away from him. If the economy starts to get better even fewer people will listen to Republicans since they only “win” if the United States fails.
It is a dream, Jason. Almost all (I’m looking at you, Smitty!) sane Republicans have left the party. My post below yours is their obituary.
They need to stop pretending they’re leaderless. They have plenty of leaders, and they’re obviously happy with them.
The sad thing is the violent rhetoric keeps growing – not only growing, but encouraged by those who have taken the lead in the Republican Party. There will be no call to tone it down, and, yes, someone will get hurt.
The key is to drink the first shot. And the last shot. And all the shots in between.
Keep looking at Rsmitty, pandora. You’re much nicer than Maria.

Unnggghhh….my personal albatross.
My local malitia are working plots of land ala commune style to prepare for “the end.” They are so afraid of the commies, that they are turning to communism to fight them.
Same group who thought they’d mow-down the VTech shooter, if given the chance. Be the hero; get the girl.
Morons who talk like that tend to be delusional bed-wetters.
