Also remember that frog boiling is a myth.

I don’t want McCain in office, but it is pretty clear that Republicans will get hammered this year. I can’t say I blame the electorate, the Republicans aren’t worth shit any more. However, there’s a very real chance that veto proof Democrat majorities emerge in Congress. With Obama in office, there is nothing there to hold the Dem’s wishes in check. Nothing.

If we could easily take the Senate back, I’d not give one whit if McCain made it or not, but an All Dem, All the Time government, the pot will sublimate.

What do I mean? There is an old allegory about how to boil a frog. It is said that if you drop a frog into a pot of boiling water it will immediately jump out.

But if you drop a frog in water that is slightly warm and turn up the heat gradually then the frog just sits there and lets itself be boiled alive, without attempting to jump out of the pot, without even knowing that it is indeed being boiled alive.

This allegory has been applied again, and again regarding the American people’s reaction to liberalism/socialism. And it is pretty clear who is who if you apply this allegory to this year’s election.

So let’s vote for the candidate who will make the frog jump out of the pot so we can have a true conservative in 2012. Otherwise we will all get gradually boiled alive.

After all it took Carter to get us Reagan.

Do not advocate revolution on a website. Never think that it is better for the worse candidate to win because it may energize your side.That is a recipe for disaster and ensures that we get the government we deserve.

Also, revolution requires critical mass, requires that all other options have been pursued, and has to be well thought-out. Revolution is NOT a few crazies running around causing mayhem and pointing to their ideologies to justify their actions. For example, McVeigh was not a revolutionary. He was a criminal.

This paper is a great read on this issue. I highly recommend it to all here.

Google “Washington University Law Quarterly Polsby and Kates holocausts and gun control” That should get you to the site that hosts the paper.

I wish I knew for certain the conditions necessary to invoke a revolution but I think it probably involves widespread hunger or open oppression of a large percentage of the population.
