Pat Schroeder already had her reelection bumper stickers printed when she bolted. Rep. Ron Coleman, already quoted above, made his announcement at what was supposed to have been his reelection kickoff party. But these benefits grow larger every year, so quitting early to take the pension is a little like killing the golden goose. No, that won't wash, at least not for forty five retirees all at approximately the same time. My time with the Christian Coalition has left me in no doubt that they will do whatever it takes to remove Liberals and Moderates from office and replace them with their own people.
Violence is by no means discounted.
Here's the right plan. We take out thirteen Liberal Democrat Senators, and twenty six Liberal Democrat Congressmen. That would put the other 575 in constant fear for themselves, their wives, and their children. This fear would pressure them to resign, and then we can put in our own people. This could have been simply an emotional outburst, in the passion of the moment, after we had all watched a very violent video.
