Would not surprise me actually. They've managed to convince themselves that untrained people with civilian arms can take on heavily armed and trained troops. And that if the government does anything they don't like, it is tyranny. Combine that with being on the losing side of demographics and insurrection and treason seems to be their only choice.

Dem Party Communications Director: Press 'Forfeits [Their] Rights' if They Don't Meet with Holder
...........................................................................................
5/29/2013
punditpress.com


The irony is thick on this one.

Eric Holder, who committed perjury when giving testimony to Congress about the AP-tapping scandal, has agreed to talk to the press. He only has one condition: it must be off-the-record, and no one outside of the room must ever know what happened.

In response, the New York Times has decided to boycott the presser, with Executive Editor Jill Abramson stating, "It isn’t appropriate for us to attend an off the record meeting with the attorney general."

Well, the Democrat party is none-too-pleased with the NY Times' stand. In fact, Democratic Party Communications Director Brad Woodhouse decided to not only lash out at the Times, but also at press rights as a whole.

Writing on Twitter, he declared that if the press does not want to attend the secret meeting that no one must ever know about, then they "forfeit [their] right gripe" about illegal activity that Eric Holder conducts:


Naturally, this incredibly asinine statement was met with derision:


However, Woodhouse's statement should not simply be written off as a stupid statement. Rather, it typifies the Obama White House's attitude that either you put up with what we do, you shut up, or else.

The voice of the modern American Democrat Party. He probably picks his nose at the dinner table, too.

Like visiting an alternative universe, isn't it? What's even more alarming is, they BELIEVE it!



It's crazy man...I just read another article from one of these conservative sites that talked about a coming revolution...WTF?

What I find amusing is that they think the rest of us will play dead while they revolt. I think they must be taking testosterone shots to have such muddled/arrogant thinking.

I'm sure there are conservative "militia" groups out there right now, plotting the overthrow of the government. I really can't WAIT for these dumb-asses to launch the offensive!

Because a lot of these 'patriots' are total geezers! They'll be attacking from their power chairs!
