Army colonel ignites firestorm with article on crushing a ‘tea party insurgency.’ It isn’t ‘We the people’ anymore, it’s now ‘We the enemy.’ It looks like the Posse Comitatus Act is being shredded along with the Constitution.

I fully agree this guy sounds like a true ass kisser. Who ever is in a position to help their career, he will firmly afix his lips to their gluteus Maximus and be so happy.
It's time for his removal as an instructor. He's nothing more than a propagandist.
In the parlance of a communist the Tea Party would be the "Counter Revolution".
Speaking of armed rebellion, score one for the good team

Didn't know where to put this but it's just too funny not to share. Hey NSS, don't you wish they were all like this?
Wow, couple things. First, nice to see Californians aren't entirely disarmed - though I'm sure owning a jewelry store might move you high up that "Needs a gun" list.
2nd -- "Investigators are trying to determine if a robbery attempt at the Asian Garden Mall on Monday, where a jewelry store owner shot a suspect in the face, may be connected to Sunday's robbery." DOUBLE FAIL!!! He needs to try a new line of work.
Finally, and most stupidly, compare the 2 ends of police Lt. Nightengale's remarks: "She said she feared the suspects were going to shoot either the employees or the customer and felt she had to take action....Obviously the best thing to do is to cooperate so no one gets hurt." Honest to God, you must be completely retarded to put those 2 ideas together. WTF is it with Blue State cops? (No offence to cops in general of course.)
Lt Nightengale has to say that, it's proper protocol. Whether she believes it or not is another thing entirely.
We don't want any thugs getting hurt, do we?
Hey flash, I thought you said you were going to San Jose this past weekend

Kidding! Thought you'd get a kick out of this.
the festival in Bitche, near France's border with Germany
They named a city after the vacationing nurse from Chicago?
After I retired from the construction business I went to work in the local conveinence store and always had my 9mm with me. My boss told me is was "against company policy" to have a weapon in the store, I told him to fire me then. I will not allow anyone to threaten me in any way, shape or form, and if they threaten me with a weapon I will protect myself. I didn't get fired either, the boss is a country boy too and understood my stance.
all I can say is there are a couple hundred million armed Americans and 2 million fighting ready troops in our entire military, 75% of which won't obey an order to fire on citizens in America-maybe 95%. This guy's thinking is FUBAR. there were 600K hunting licenses issued in WISCONSIN last year-there aren't 600K fighting ready troops in America at any given time.
Using data provided by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service regarding the number of hunting licenses issued throughout the country, the established baseline is 14,974,534 licenses (2011).

It don't look good for a military takeover of the citizenry.
"As the scenario goes, the tea party group stages a takeover of the town of Darlington, S.C. The mayor is placed under house arrest and prevented from exercising his duties. The police chief, the county sheriff, and other law enforcement officials are removed from office and told not to interfere. The city council is dissolved. The governor of the state, who had previously expressed solidarity with tea party goals, does little to address the situation."
This is all bullshit. Tea Party types have been ELECTED all over the f**king country.... unless that's what these creeps are talking about as a "takeover" maybe?
No these idiots think all the rednecks will do an armed takeover.
Funny how the Left will attack a group of people that they fear. We can hunt, provide for ourselves, and fully understand our rights. These are the things that the liberals fear more than anything in the world. Because if people do not need the government they cannot gain power as easily as they hoped. I guarantee that when the day comes in which the rights of a state are stripped away by the U.S. government will be the day that the true patriots will take a stand. People can only take so much before they are pushed too far and Obama and his cronies are getting dangerously close to that breaking point.
That's why "The Nuge" and his popularity scares them so much.
I dare this traitor, Col. Benson, to come down to my part to the country and spew his nonsense. Us old veterans around here will kick his sorry ass, and anyone foolish enough to follow him, back to the stone age. Our military was not set up to protect the gooberment. It was, and is, manned by patriots who will defend the American people against the gooberment if need be.
"Several items of interest are to be noted in the scenario the Army uses to describe the tea party activists -- "right wing," "extremists," "insurrectionists," all of whom are lumped together with militias and organizations that are considered "racist" and "anti-immigration."
I guess I am now a full fledged extremist..Who woulda thought your own government would go this far over the cliff? The article states about half the Army is solidly in Obama's camp..I don't believe that for a minute, like any organization there are ass kissers int he military who will hump anyone's leg to get ahead, but I believe they are few and far between.
Another attack on patriots all over the country by another leftist...More than ever the election needs to rid the country of Obutthead, so he can move to Europe and help with their collapse.
The article finally made me sign up as a Tea Party Patriot, as long as I am gonna be an extremist, I might as well go all the way... The oath I have taken in both my jobs requires that I "uphold the constitution and protect the city, county, state, and country from all invaders foreign and domestic"....As far as I am concerned liberals are the invaders on the domestic side....
And illegals? ;-)
Not half the whole Army, half the Pentagon, who would likely be as out of touch as the rest of DC. The writer says he doesn't believe that figure anyway.
Odd, I don't know any military servicemen/women who are solidly in Obama's camp...Come to think about it, that may be why they are trying to suppress military early voting rights for the military. Hhhmmm.
There are a few burnout Vietnam Vets that are, I met one at the VA clinic. Overall, you won't find very many "O" bumperstickers on military posts.
I don't think this will turn out the way the fascist big-gov democrats think it will.
No it won't. Americans who understand what it means to be an American are fed up with Obama & those who are pushing his progressive agenda. They will lose in the end.
Why not use the OWS for the scenario? At least it would have been believable. He could have used the new Batman movie for research.
"Not a shred of evidence remotely suggests that the tea party has any connection whatsoever with terrorists."
Never stopped the Dems/ "progressives" before--see, for example, Harry Reid, Stephanie Cutter, David Axelrod, et al.
