It's a Coup! No it Isn't! Is it?

[Mike220]

The DUmmies are in rare form when it comes to discussing the upcoming march in DC with armed protesters... that's not in DC...

When they're armed it's no longer a protest, it's a coup.
   
Call the upcoming armed protest in DC what it is.

A coup.

1. It's only a coup if they are successful.
   
Until then, it is only an attempted coup.

"The calculated use of violence or the threat of violence to attain goals political, religious, or ideological in nature...through intimidation, coercion, or instilling fear" can be defined as terrorism.

10. And people who can't have a political discussion without a gun on their hip are cowards.

And people who can't have a political discussion without shouting "racist!" are bigger cowards.

9. Melodramatic much?
   
Read about actual coups.

Well, you're DUmmies, so melodrama is pretty much all you got.

12. The correct term is "Putsch"
   
When discussing the language of right wing politics, it is
best to use the original German.

And Godwin's Law is invoked 12 posts in. Methinks someone doesn't know shit about the NSDAP that Queef and Madcow haven't spoonfed him.

concur

But I would like to add that he thread reeks of bated anticipation from the DUmbasses.

They would love nothing better than to see gunfire erupt between the protester--whom they hate--and the cops--whom they also hate--and better yet, the military--whom they loathe.

They want the cops and military to do their killing of political foes for them.

THAT'S cowardice.

We'll need at least 5-10 million at a minimum if we wanted a "coup"

Hitler was a Leftist. Learn your history dickhead.

National SOCIALIST German Workers Party. Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, ergo NAZI.

No no no no no no no. No. To DUmpmonkeys Hitler was so far left he was right. It's the only way they can sleep all night till noon.

And yet prior to January 20th 2009 all the DUmmies did was continually call for a coup or the next American revolution.

When the protest ends as peacefully and uneventfully as it began, expect the DUmmies to declare victory.

Isn't it mind boggling? And now saying "regime" is giving them the vapors now. I swear my head is going to explode from the hypocrisy overload.

Naw.  Repeating firearms are much greater force multipliers than are photocopied hands, healing white light, DUAC and phantom Bantams.

They'll either say the protesters were too cowardly or inept to follow through with the "coup," or the threat of law enforcement and the military (who they suddenly have a newly found love and respect for) kept the rabble in check.

Only DUmbasses can create a threat out of thin air, create an imaginary reponse to that threat, then as you say, "declare victory."

Hysterical ninnies.

[ColonialMarine0431]

Hey DUmmies. If we were going to stage a coup, we'd show up with more than sidearms.

Or for Bush to be arrested or assassinated along with Rove And Rumsfield and the entire cabinate.

My favorite Little Goon Moment was when they thought if President Bush could be impeached and removed from office, John Kerry would become president.

Gore, too.

Seriously?  They really thought that?  I would have loved to see that, and I can't imagine how hard I would have laughed.
