And neither are the right-wing Republican radicals
Let us just imagine for a moment that any of these certifiably insane candidates for the Republican nomination does capture the spot on the ballot. We can continue to imagine that the American people would be gullible enough to buy into the radical Republican agenda of imparting harm to the middle class and the poor in order to give the wealthy and the corporations more tax breaks. Then we can deduce that after all the rigging of elections and their obscene treasure chests provided by the Koch brothers and other unpatriotic Americans and corporations…they will actually win the White House and the Senate as well as holding on to the House of Representatives.
In such an unlikely scenario, is it wise to read the tea leaves? Would it be preposterous of most Americans in the middle to expect prosperity and an equitable distribution of the wealth? The answer of course is no.
You have to be pretty dense not to figure out that as peace loving, law abiding, gentile and disengaged in politics as the majority of Americans are that they will be opposing most if not all of the scorch earth initiatives such as we have seen in Wisconsin and other places.
Is it not clear that the people will rise? Have we not seen but very small examples of people getting together and protesting? Do we ignore Occupy Wall Street, vilify them and paint them as extremist, dirty hippies who want to destroy our country or do we consider what it is that is causing such protests?
Oh, sure, the police departments in some of these cities will be successful in repressing the protests. You might even get the usual suspects who watch Fox news and listen to Rush to buy into their lies…but when a tyrannical, theocratic plutocracy is forced upon the American people it is not going to be just demonstrations and protests…it will escalate into more serious conflicts.
Then, given the fact that the Republicans are slashing public services like fire protection, city services and even reducing their police force…who do you think would be left to repress and prevent any such protests? Surely the National Guard would not be willing to go in and kill their brothers and sisters knowing full well that when they are out of the military they won’t even be able to find a job, the veteran benefits will be gone and all their sacrifices they have made for their country will translate into preserving the riches of that 1%.
That my friends is not going to work either because you can’t motivate the military to slaughter their own over unjust and unreasonable ideology…and that is what the tea leaves are telling us. So I suggest to you stupid Teabagger that you do read the tea leaves.
