In my ignert opinion, the "new and improved" non-destructive weapons we will be using in this exercise will reduce civilian deaths. That doesn't mean there wont be any, but I think it will be few. Imagine if *none* of your electronic gadgets worked. How effective of a resistance could you wage?

As for Teddy K and the like, I have their number. They know if this goes well, there will be Reps dominating the House, Senate, and the White House for a long time. They would willingly protest a hot shower and a bar of soap if they felt that it would help them regain the power they feel they are *entitled* to.

I think the degree of creativity these asshats have is amusing because it is so transparent. The party that cried wolf. I have my hat here with salt ready, but I dont think I'll be eating it anytime soon.

After the self destruction of the Democratic party, we can replace the Reps with Libertarians. Then maybe I can relax my sphincter.
