Radical Right’s “Traitors Spring” Fails Miserably.

LOLz. Mission Accomplished. I bet the organizers of this treasonous event don’t even get the humor of that. Oh well. So why do I use the words treason and traitor in describing this event. Well

Self-styled revolutionary patriots plan to converge on Washington, D.C., [on Friday] to drive President Barack Obama and disloyal lawmakers out of office.

“We are calling for the removal of Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Harry Reid, Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, Nancy Pelosi, and Eric Holder as a start toward constitutional restoration,” said retired Army Col. Harry Riley, leader of the Operation American Spring protest group. “They have all abandoned the US Constitution, are unworthy to be retained in a position that calls for servant status.”

Operation American Spring aims to pressure those lawmakers who remain – or are replaced by officials of their own choosing – “to sponsor and pass very Constitutionally crafted State legislation to dissolve the size, powers, scope and spending of the U.S. Government by 2/3rds.”

The activists say they expect 10 million to 30 million like-minded Americans to join them Friday in the nation’s capital for a rally patterned after Occupy Wall Street and “Arab Spring” protests. […] Organizers also anticipate “incremental nullification” by state legislatures of “all withholding taxes, employment taxes, employer taxes, and income taxes.”

So, if all had gone to their deluded plain, 10 to 30 million people who rush the White House and the Capitol Building and force the President, Vice President and the congressional leadership from office. How exactly is not said, but one can assume that they would not have gone willingly, since all were legitimately elected to their terms of office less than two years ago. So we are left to assume that they will be violently forced from office. So Operation American Spring is advocating a violent overthrow of the government. Yes, it is not expressly said, because if they did, they would be in jail today. They wanted more than just a protest of the President’s policies, or the overall government’s policies. They wanted a removal of the government by force and the institution of their alternative policies. That is a coup d’etat. These fucks could not win a democratic election, so they are going to force their policies on you by armed violence.

So did 10 to 30 million people show up?

No.

Better luck next time. Coup organizers said that the 10 to 30 million expected were scared off by the rain on Thursday and Friday. Which seems reasonable. Because if you are going to violently topple your government, it better be a sunny day.
