"Fed" Up

    For some reason, I've always had a knack for looking at a given situation, and boiling it down to basic components. When David Koresh had his little wing ding up in Waco I drove up, took one look, and told everybody it was like the Alamo. Everybody laughed at me, and the Feds lit the place up. 

    Baltimore and Seattle! Now what this is reminds me of Concord and Lexington. Y'all can all start laughing now. What do these seemingly remote events have in common? Did you think the patriots at the two revolutionary war sites were some kind of an organized army? Well, they weren't. They were citizen militias. The other thing they had in common was that they were fed up!

    Being fed up goes a long way. It doesn't matter if you're right or wrong, just as long as you're fed up. And brothers and sisters, we're ALL "Fed" up!  We're fed up with a president who wouldn't understand the constitution it it were typed up in Braille, and . . . well, you know where I'd like to stick it. We're fed up with Supreme Court Justices cramming gay marriage down our throats, and then just looking at us like they have good sense. We're fed up with cancer patients screaming their last day of life when one little herb would ease their passage, and allow them to move on. We're fed up with "undocumented whatEVERS" grinning at us from Dilly, Texas while we can't even drive SOUTH on I35 without a full cavity search.

    It doesn't matter if you're conservative or liberal, gay or straight, black or white, fed UP is contagious. Those guys at Concord and Lexington, do you think they agreed on every single thing? They didn't, but they ALL knew they were fed up. The rioters, demonstrators, protestors, or thugs, whatever you want to call them, have come upon a rule of common law; they can't arrest them all, and there are more of US than there are of THEM!

    Unless I'm wrong, as this movement gains legs, you will see outbreaks like this all over the country. Seattle? SEATTLE? Those people are jelly fish, and even THEY are "tó up" about the situation. Obama's gonna need martial law, but it ain't gonna do him no good. One thing I can say about thugs; they are NOT keyboard commandos. A thousand hit the streets and about ten or twenty go to jail. Even these high school drop outs can do THAT math! 

    The sad thing is the honest cops. Unfortunately they're on one side and the temperament of the nation is on the other. You will not see carte Blanche disorder. What you will see is that pendulum I've been telling you about begin to swing the other way.  The Americans will fight, and puzzle, write new laws, and speechify, and while they are doing all this Texas will quietly slip away . . . just like I TOLD you it would!
