I doubt it. Most people lack the courage of their convictions. Its easy to shout rebellion when there isn't an M-1 Abrams sitting outside you compound, with helicopters going overheard and armed government agents just waiting for the call to move in.

The people that would rebel in this fashion are in a very small minority that would be unable to muster a serious threat to the government.

If there was any significant rebellion, what makes you think there are enough secret Obama agents to sit out in front of all of their houses?

Edit to add: there are 300,000,000 Americans. More than half of them oppose ObamaCare and socialism.

It is already happening on a very small scale due to this health care bill. I have no doubt it will happen in a bigway within next 10 years. I am scared and prepaired. I will also fight to defend myself if anybody wants to get all crazy and try to take over my home as a dwelling place to use to fight. I will die before I let someone take away what is mine.

We should ban guns, because then we'd all be safe and live in perfect harmony. :monkey:angel?:
 
Right now the rebellion is coming from the right-wing, but you know what... Let's not call it a rebellion, because it's not. They will have to keep dreaming. :lol: It's laughable when you think about it.

Right-wing people seem to just "go with the flow." Yes they are very vocal on moderate and center-left policies... But it's all political. Once the Republicans are back in power I can guarantee 100% (I'll even bet my life's saving, house, car, job, and everything me and my family owns on it!) these tea-party protesters will find something else to do with their time.

Don't get me wrong though, back in 2008 when the tea-parties were new (the ones protesting the Federal Reserve) I thought it was going to be a true awakening, but after the Republican party hijacked it and starting using Sarah Palin as their "leader" I knew it was a con operation. It's also amazing how these people didn't have a problem with AIG bailouts. Tea-party idol Glenn Beck even liked the idea of bailing out the banks with your tax dollars.

I spoke out against both the Bush AND Obama bailouts by the way so find someone else to call a hypocrite.

So, let me get this straight. What you're saying is that once the problem is solved, the people who helped solve the problem will be happy? Shocking! :shock:

A decent portion of them will be satisfied that a more conservative party is put back into power. Some of them were merely political party supporters. Others were not. Those who aren't will come to silence by at least one of a few ways: they will be moderately satisfied, will be drowned out by the other voices, or will shrink away from political activity once more.

So voting in Republicans is the tea-party solution to the problems? You just proved my point. Thanks. Now we can conform the tea-party is a wing of the Republican party.

Sure, I guess if it is only the Republicans who believe Obama and his socialist counterparts are the problem. In that case then, the Tea Party Movement would be partisan.

The problem with your flawed logic is that even Disgruntled Democrats join the Tea Party.

But the American People elected Obama by a majority vote.

Yes, when PBO seizes power and installs himself as dictator, there will be an uprising. I'm gonna be up-n-the-middle-of-it, too.

A lot has happened since then, now hasn't it?

Sure has. As usual, the republican fat cats have done what they always do. They get off their fat wallets they got from ripping off the American people while they were in power, and flood the country with propaganda to try to buy their power back. It takes a fool to not realize all this tea party BS isn't financed by the republican party. It's the SOS. They stink up the room, then they step back, hold their noses, and point to someone else.
