Word of the Day: Sedition

Let me begin by noting that this person worked as an official in both the Carter and Regan Administrations and is a Pulitzer Prize recipient.

"There is a remote, although gaining, possibility America’s military will intervene as a last resort to resolve the “Obama problem.” Don’t dismiss it as unrealistic.

America isn’t the Third World. If a military coup does occur here it will be civilized. That it has never happened doesn’t mean it wont. Describing what may be afoot is not to advocate it.

Will the day come when patriotic general and flag officers sit down with the president, or with those who control him, and work out the national equivalent of a “family intervention,” with some form of limited, shared responsibility?

Imagine a bloodless coup to restore and defend the Constitution through an interim administration that would do the serious business of governing and defending the nation. Skilled, military-trained, nation-builders would replace accountability-challenged, radical-left commissars. Having bonded with his twin teleprompters, the president would be detailed for ceremonial speech-making."

It makes me yearn for the days when people got arrested just for showing up at townhalls in mean t-shirts. I'll leave readers to draw their own conclusions as to where this sort of thing leads. For my part, things are really seeming to take on a April 19, 1995 flavor to me. Link below, if you can bear it.
