I thought I had seen it all, but in these days of social unrest and the disintegration of the GOP, it appears that right-wing die-hards aren’t falling off the cliff of obscurity, but instead are promoting armed insurrection against the Constitution and the United States Government. Maybe I was wrong; it appears that the FEMA internment camps will serve a purpose - and that’s to house those who are attempting to undermine our own government. The people have spoke, loud and clear, and President Obama is our new President - and that is the will of the majority of the people of America. If you’re a patriotic American and you believe in our country, the below story should shock the conscious of any and all Americans that believe in the United States:
What the Huck? Chuck Norris’ roundhouse kick to the gut of American democracy
That was fast. It was just one year ago that right-wing martial arts guru Chuck Norris was a sought-after “get” for the GOP presidential candidates like Mike Huckabee, who paraded the star of “Walker, Texas Ranger” around the nation after the anti-abortion actor endorsed him in the primaries.
But now it’s 2009, Barack Obama is in the White House, and the inventor of chun kuk do is preaching the martial art of insurrection against the U.S. government. He also wants to run for — and no, I’m not making this up — “the president of Texas.”:
The call by some right wing leaders for rebellion and for the military to refuse the commander in chief’s orders is joined by Chuck Norris who claims that thousands of right wing cell groups have organized and are ready for a second American Revolution. During an appearance on the Glen Beck radio show he promised that if things get any worse from his point of view he may “run for president of Texas.” The martial artist/actor/activist claims that Texas was never formally a part of the United States in the first place and that if rebellion is to come through secession Texas would lead the way.
Norris really comes close to crossing a line with this:
Norris claims that; “Thousands of cell groups will be united around the country in solidarity over the concerns for our nation.” The right wing cells will meet during a live telecast, “We Surround Them,” on Friday March 13 at 5 p.m.He closes with the words of Sam Houston followed by a plug for his next martial arts event.“We view ourselves on the eve of battle.” MORE
The burning question we all face is what the Obama administration will do to cope with those that promote violence and armed insurrection against our own country. We don’t need a “civil war” or any other type of violence that disembodies our Constitution, the Rule of Law, and the Bill of Rights. Those who believe that violence is the only way to display their dissatisfaction with he Obama administration are committing treason - in my opinion - and I don’t seem to be the only one that share this belief. Read the full article above and make up your own minds. This is the United States, and our core beliefs are that violence is counter-productive, especially when it is aimed at the Presidency itself.
This is one of President Obama’s most important challenges. Will he work to stop this insurrection before it builds into a civil war, or will he allow it to progress until the administration has to declare martial law, which will effectively negate our constitution and subject ALL Americans to harsh military tactics, even the ones that choose to remain peaceful. The ball is in your court President Obama - and your actions in facing this crisis will define your presidency just as much as the financial crisis and the War(s) in the Middle-East.
