Yesterday on Newsmax, columnist John L. Perry muses about how a "bloodless coup" might be the only way to resolve the "Obama problem." Newsmax has since pulled the column (I guess sedition might violate their policies), but you can read the juiciest bits on Media Matters. The key nugget:
A coup is not an ideal option, but Obama's radical ideal is not acceptable or reversible. Unthinkable? Then think up an alternative, non-violent solution to the Obama problem.
How about an election?!? Remember how we had one of those less than a year ago and the country opted for the "Obama problem" and its "radical ideal" by a large margin?
I'm trying to keep all of this poisonous rhetoric from really freaking me out. I recently talked about this with my uncle who told B. and I that his last year at Wisconsin-Madison classes could only meet 16 out of 32 weeks because of anti-Vietnam riots. Still, this alarms me.
UPDATE: TPM posted the full text of the original column.
