http://www.addictinginfo.org/2014/09/07/former-republican-congressman-tells-obama-get-out-of-office-or-face-armed-rebellion/The word treason gets thrown around a lot these days, but in this case the shoe absolutely fits.
Tom Tancredo, a former Colorado Congressman and recent Gubernatorial primary loser, has become increasingly vocal about the idea that if Obama isnt impeached, or better yet, steps down willingly, there will be an armed rebellion in the United States which forces him to do so. Concern-troll Tancredo doesnt want to see violence, so he is kindly asking the president to consider taking the first option. In other words: blackmailing the freely elected President of the United States by threatening violence against him and his administration. In other-other words: treason.
Right Wing Watch captured Tancredos latest rant against Obama, whom he believes is a tyrant because of things like Obamacare and immigration reform. The former politician told Tim Wildmon of the American Family Association that it is imperative that the Republican party go through with impeaching Obama because its the only way to get rid of him short of armed rebellion that everybody constantly you know, a lot of people, I guess I should say, think to themselves is either coming or a potential and God knows thats not something we want to see....

(66,328 posts)out of their armchairs and away from CMT to actually start a 'revolution', would they even have the courage to attack something other than a movie theater or a school yard?
I doubt it.
And if by some alchemical miracle it actually did happen, I'd volunteer to join the Federal counter-insurrection for as long as it takes to send those tough-talking cowards to hell.
Tom Tancredo would look very nice in the reticle of my M1 Abrams tank...

(3,335 posts)I think this sort of of saying what you want at no expense has gotten dangerous and as you stated is "treasonous", and it's time that a certain "former" congressman who ought to know better should be made an example of.
