		<description>I have found Snarky sometimes encourages people to stop and provide substance.

Do I honesty think People like Michelle Bachmann and Sean Hannity pose a serious threat to the Republic? 

No more than the thousands of like minded intellectual half wits who join the white pride movement.

But unlike members of the K.K.K The Bachmann's and Hanity's of the world actually influence voters at the polls.

Traditional conservatism is a good counter balance for progressive liberalism. 

But folks like Sean and Michelle are little more than rabble rousers and rock throwers who frustrate the want of responsible people on both sides of the political spectrum to solve complex problems which can not be defined or explained in short bursts or snappy slogans</description>

		<description>Mmmmmm....snarky, aren't we?  PS, nowhere in any of her statements does she call for anyone to take up arms and start shooting people.  

A revolution can be many things -- the Velvet Revolution, for example, that ended Soviet rule in the Czech Republic.  The point is that she, and other Conservatives, believe Obama is taking the country in the wrong direction.  They should do anything possible to stop this.  It is no different from what the Democrats did during Bush's administration.

You know, kind of like The National Review:

http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=YmU0NGQ0ZTQzZTU4Zjk4MjdjZWMzYTM4Nzk2MzQ0MGI=

"When I see the worsening degeneracy in our politicians, our media, our educators, and our intelligentsia, I can’t help wondering if the day may yet come when the only thing that can save this country is a military coup."

Or like everyone calling for his "impeachment". What is impeachment but a revolution to overthrow the President -- deserved or otherwise?

On June 16, 2005 Rep. John Conyers (D-MI) assembled an unofficial meeting to discuss the Downing Street memo and to consider grounds for impeachment.
On December 20, 2005, the House Judiciary Committee Democratic Staff, at Conyers' request, filed its report.[citation needed]
Conyers filed a resolution on December 18, 2005 to create an investigative committee to consider impeachment. His resolution gained 38 co-sponsors before it expired at the end of the 109th Congress. He did not reintroduce a similar resolution for the 110th Congress.[28]
Keith Ellison was the leading figure behind the resolution to impeach Bush brought to the Minnesota State House of Representatives in May 2006.[29] Ellison was elected to the United States House of Representatives in November 2006. During the campaign and when he was named to the House Judiciary Committee, Ellison repeatedly called for an investigation into a possible impeachment.[30] In support of his candidacy, he “received a $1,000 contribution from ImpeachPAC”.[31] Later, on April 22, 2007, Ellison met with constituents and listed new conditions for his support for impeachment hearings, such as verifiable facts and the backing of a majority of the American people.[32]
At another unofficial hearing convened by Conyers on January 20, 2006, Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) called for the committee to explore whether Bush should face impeachment, stemming from his decision to authorize domestic surveillance without court review. The proceedings had no legal authority, as committee chairman, Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner, (R-WI), rejected Democrats' requests for an inquiry.[citation needed]
On May 10, 2006, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) indicated she was not interested in pursuing impeachment and had taken it "off the table", reiterating this phrase on November 8, 2006.[33][34] In July 2007, Pelosi stated that she "would probably advocate" impeaching Bush if she were not in the House nor Speaker of the House.[35]
On December 8, 2006 (the last day of the 109th Congress), then-Representative Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) submitted a resolution, H. Res. 1106, introducing articles of impeachment against President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.[citation needed] The bill expired along with the 109th Congress.[36]
John Conyers brought up the subject of impeachment on the July 8, 2007 broadcast of This Week with George Stephanopoulos,[37] stating:
"We're hoping that as the cries for the removal of both Cheney and Bush now reach 46 percent and 58 percent, respectively, for impeachment, that we could begin to become a little bit more cooperative, if not even amicable, in trying to get to the truth of these matters."
Presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich's major point in the Democratic Presidential Debate on October 30, 2007 was that Bush and Cheney should be impeached for the Iraq war.[38][39] On November 6, 2007, Kucinich introduced a resolution to impeach Vice President Cheney in the House of Representatives.[40]
In November 2007, Joe Biden, then a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008, stated that he would move to impeach if President Bush bombs Iran without first gaining congressional approval.[41] However, no such bombing occurred during the rest of Bush's term (with or without congressional approval).
In December 2007, Congressman Robert Wexler started a website to promote impeachment hearings against Vice President Cheney. He indicated that hearings into the impeachment of Bush might be warranted as well.[citation needed]
On June 9, 2008, Representative Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio), introduced a resolution, H.Res. 1258, to impeach president George W. Bush, which included 35 counts in the articles of impeachment. At the end of the evening on June 10, Kucinich offered a motion to refer HRes 1258 to the House Judiciary Committee. On June 11, the House voted 251-166 to send the resolution to the Committee.[42]
On July 14, 2008, Kucinich introduced a new impeachment resolution (H.Res. 1345) limited to a single count.

If you honestly, for a second, believe that she meant for people  to take up arms, then you are a wacky alarmist ideologue. 

What a shock, given that you link to Keith Olbermann.</description>

		<description>This is the most ridiculous, alarmist interpretation of an obviously hyperbolic statement I've ever read.

You need a reality check.</description>
