Seriously, WTF?

You know, when I used the phrase Banana Republicans in the past, I didn’t really think it would come to this:

There is a remote, although gaining, possibility America’s military will intervene as a last resort to resolve the “Obama problem.” Don’t dismiss it as unrealistic.

America isn’t the Third World. If a military coup does occur here it will be civilized. That it has never happened doesn’t mean it wont. Describing what may be afoot is not to advocate it.

[…]

Will the day come when patriotic general and flag officers sit down with the president, or with those who control him, and work out the national equivalent of a “family intervention,” with some form of limited, shared responsibility?

Imagine a bloodless coup to restore and defend the Constitution through an interim administration that would do the serious business of governing and defending the nation. Skilled, military-trained, nation-builders would replace accountability-challenged, radical-left commissars. Having bonded with his twin teleprompters, the president would be detailed for ceremonial speech-making.

The Obama Problem

I figured it’d take at least a year before they’d be hoping for a coup.

Seven Days in May (1964)

…I don’t know whether to laugh at that kind of megalomania, or simply cry…

You’d think individuals who were subjected to this kind of speculation about the veracity of their oath or affirmation would be outraged.

Update: Newsmax removes column that called for military coup to resolve the ‘Obama problem.’
