Something that doesn't occur to the DUmmies is what happened 10 years ago. While tons of people were losing their jobs over the meltdown, obozo was adding a whole hell of a lot of federal employees at the Washington DC level. That geographic area was golden, and insulated, while other people were absolutely destitute. These jobs went to well connected cronies, not normal people. Then the reports started coming in about them watching porn at work on our dimes. Nothing happened to them. Deep resentments built up. Not a lot of crocodile tears for these guys. I don't see anyone marching in the streets, let alone trying to pull off a coup. We're trying to make ends meet.
