And It Continues In Earnest, Part 4

The derangement never stops, folks.  This time we have yet another House Republican calling for impeachment because of "executive overreach" on gun control enforcement.

Rep. Trey Radel (R-Fla.) said Wednesday that "all options should be on the table" when asked about the possibility of Republicans initiating impeachment proceedings against President Obama.


In an interview with Florida political website The Shark Tank, the freshman lawmaker was asked about the possibility of impeaching the president for executive overreach. Citizens "have completely lost our checks and balances in this country," he said. "The Congress needs to hold the president accountable for the decisions that he’s making right now, and that's why, again, I would say that all options should be on the table.”

I say to Rep. Radel what I said to Rep. Stockman yesterday:  please proceed, gentlemen, preferably sooner.  Please, please do this before 2014.  It'll be awesome.

Meanwhile, the excellent Roy Edroso flags down this diatribe from winger blog Confederate Yankee:

Were an angry group of disenfranchised citizens to target in a strategic manner the substations leading to a city or geographic area—say, Albany, for example—they could put the area in the dark for as long as it took to bring the substations back online. Were they committed enough, and spread their attacks out over a wide enough area, perhaps mixing in a few tens of dozens of the residential transformers found every few hundred yards along city streets, they could overwhelm the utility companies ability to repair the damage being caused or law enforcement’s ability to stop them...

How many days with partial power or no power, how many nights in the dark, would it take before the local economy collapsed in the targeted area? Insurgents could cripple a city, region, or state, without ever firing a bullet at another human being. 
Progressives seeking to undermine the Constitution seem to think they hold all the cards. I would warn them that they are not remotely prepared for what will happen if they attempt to cross Constitutional boundaries and natural rights. 
It could be a cold, dark winter. 
Tread carefully.

But don't you dare call them the right wing Taliban, right?   FBI should be knocking on this clown's door any minute now.
