Politics or sedition? Rush Limbaugh calls for military coup
November 26, 10:20 AM
When does a political joke become sedition? Rush Limbaugh is calling for a military coup, and the joke, if it is a joke, is not funny. Rush, speaking about President Obama's upcoming speech at West Point, expressed hope that military officials at the Academy would "detain" President Obama.
Regardless of one's politics, to suggest that military officials at the United States Military Academy detain the President of the United States is to suggest a military coup. Such a suggestion is sedition. Limbaugh is advocating military insurrection.
Limbaugh has made similar remarks before. Speaking of the Honduran coup Rush had this to say: "The coup was what many of you wish would happen here, without the military"; and, "If we had any good luck, Honduras would send some people here and help us get our government back".
Recently Newsmax columnist John L. Perry was disgraced and humiliated after making a similar suggestion. Newsmax immediately removed the column and distanced their publication from any affiliation with Perry.
It is doubtful that Limbaugh will suffer any meaningful consequences. Those on the right who know better are afraid of Rush. While others on the right, so called "dittoheads", know very little.
These kind of inflammatory remarks by Rush and other right wing nuts continue to damage the credibility of conservatives and the GOP. While Rush may comfort and entertain the knuckle dragging Neanderthals, his outrageous remarks fall flat in middle America. The vast majority of Americans want nothing to do with Limbaugh's right wing nuttiness.
Regardless of one's politics, to suggest that military officials at the United States Military Academy detain the President of the United States is to suggest a military coup. Such a suggestion is sedition. Limbaugh is advocating military insurrection.
The Congress that routinely funds illegal wars, takes bribes for votes and wipes it's collective ass with the Constitution ? THAT CONGRESS ??
Yes...THAT "constitution."
All you lefty/progressive/socialist/kommunist-fascists are fucking nutz...totally.
Of that I am totally convinced. Seriously. Their world-view is warped beyond redemption.
We are at war with these people. I've been "firing" old leftist-liberal "friends"; Their hypocrisy is sickening. Still giving the statist-Pubbie Elites some slack though...More are coming around each day.
If they insist on Party before Principle, THEY are lost as well.
