DUmmies Discuss Revolution - Again
« on: July 27, 2009, 09:42:42 PM »
One thing you can count on: Any hotly debated issue in Congress will result in DUmmies planning the violent overthrow of the government. Even when they control two of the three branches, and may soon have all three. Of course, the most lethal weapons they have are fingernails and body odor.

No public option, no single payer, good, I'm voting republican.
 Really. The fastest way toward a real revolution is to accelerate the theft and greed to a level where the suffering is acute. The congress is now officially the corporations representatives against the people. It's about time the blinders came off and we see the grotesqueness that is the American Political System.

Excuse me, but the suffering is already acute.
 And still people (by which I mean Congresspeople) don't get it.

What's Plan C?

44. It's not acute enough..
.. for JQP to get a clue and tell his congressman "get the country this or you are going to be looking for another job when your term is up".

The reason we have a government of the corporations, for the corporations and by the corporations is because Americans have given up their role in politics and left it to the thieves.

The suffering will apparently have to get a lot more acute.


If there's a revolution, wino DUmmy bobbolink is so there:

4. The quick boil.
 Many of us have had that thought.

Too bad it can't be discussed here

40. I'm waiting for it.
The middle class will need to live the life the bottom has been forced to live the last 30 years.
Then maybe they'll understand we are all in this together. 
 
Come on, DUmmy ipaint! How can you expect the middle class to live like you? They work!

42. Right
revolutions are always bottom up.

Now here is a funny comment. The homeless wino DUmmy bobbolink, who every day shits in someone else's doorway, gives a lecture on "Liberation Theology":

46. Usually, but not always.
 Liberation Theology in Latin America was the exception. The leaders, such as Archbishop Romero, gave the people on the bottom rungs the support and backing and understanding to stand up to the powers that be.
 

The wino DUmmy bobbolink apparently found lecturing to be exhilarating. She moves on to complete a rare twin killing by tossing out a bobbolink bouncy. Anyone who believes it wins a DUmmy bobbolink bobblehead.

47. I suggested today to some who work at Walmart that those rich jerks who are stopping
 Healthh Care should either have to be in the military and live on that "salary" with the dangers, or have to work at Walmart for a year, with no access to their mansion or their wealth.

Needless to say, they were all for it. ONe who is a manager of a department there, when I suggested that Rep. Jerod Polis work under her position, said she'd have a lot of fun with that.
Even though it'd be only for a year, somehow I think they'd suddenly "get it"

10. I don't think I can ever bring myself to vote Republican, I prefer the option of just not voting.
 Which is precisely what I intend to do in 2010 -- and ever after -- if they **** this one up.
No money, no phone banking, no bumper stickers, no lawn signs, no vote. And I'll encourage all I know to not vote either. What's the use? They don't listen to us or care about what we want or need, anyway.
Leftist politicians are losing sleep at the though of losing DUmmy scarletwoman's money, telephone skills, bumper stickers, and lawn sign.

26. In other words, turn Washington into a self-cleaning oven.
 Or a compost heap. Give the Republicans the White House and the legislative majority. Let the fever of insanity burn hot and run its course. Concentrate as much right wing corruption and evil in one place as possible and let the rot become so self-evident that the whole ridiculous empire collapses.
Voting Republican is voting for the collapse of the United States, but maybe collapse is the only way to get to meaningful change. Palin for President in 2012! Let the circus begin.

The empire should collapse. America has become a bad infection.

What is this "revolution always starts at the bottom" crap?

Revolutions tend to be started by the children of middle-class affluents; I give you the example of the Russian Revolution of 1917 which, while ostensibly on behalf of the workers and peasants, the workers and peasants themselves had no say in it.

And Fidel wasn't exactly born and raised in Cuba's lower classes.

The Glorious Revolution of 1689 in England wasn't caused by the peasantry opposed to tyrannical royal power; it was started by middle-class resentment of tyrannical royal power.

And Yugo wasn't exactly born and raised in Venezuela's lower classes.

And on and on it goes.

The primitives really need to read some history books.

It sounds to me like the primitives prefer blaming Republicans over actually winning elections.

How about William Wallace? wasn't he a commoner?

DUmmie Revolution: Fought with fluffy pink boa's.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

There's times I wish these chickenshit losers would actually get off their stoned cheeto eatin' asses and bring their "revolution".

Something tells me that the results would be rather unexpected and somewhat unfavorable for their side.

http://www.electricscotland.com/history/articles/william_wallace.htm

Sir William Wallace
by Roy Campbell
 


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 

William Wallace (c1270 - 1305)

Wallace was born in around 1270, probably near Ellerslie (now Elderslie), in Ayrshire, Scotland. His father was Sir Malcolm Wallace, Laird of Elderslie and Auchinbothie, a small landowner and little-known Scottish knight. [Note: in 1999 the seal of Sir Wallace was translated from the archaic latin. On his seal it says he is the son of 'Alan'.] His mother is believed to have been the daughter of Sir Hugh Crawford, Sheriff of Ayr, and he is thought to have had an elder brother, also called Malcolm. Because he was the second son, William did not inherit his father's title or lands.

There is almost no reliable information about William Wallace's early life. He is said to have spent his childhood at Dunipace, near Stirling, under the supervision of his uncle, who was a priest. Wallace probably led a comfortable and peaceful life as the son of a nobleman.

The DUmmies certainly know as much about revolution as they do about history, military science, geopolitics, and physics, I'll sure give them that.   :uhsure:

Historically, revolutions have started at every level, from slave revolts to coups-de-etat.  They are not the unique province of any one particular class, but a necessary precondition for them to have a shot at working is that there has to be widespread disaffection with the existing order in at least one important class.

Well then, I guess it's left up to us.............as usual the DUmmies can't do anything for themselves.....welfare, disability, foodstamps etc., medicaid, as examples.

If the DUmmies and their ilk ever screwed things up to the point that the class I believe you mean actually revolted, they really, really wouldn't like the outcome.  Grindhouse films would look like a Disney animation festival by comparison.
