A recent poll that asked if the Benghazi case should be revisited by Congress,, 2 out of 3 Americans voted yes, and that INCLUDES a 55% democrat spread in the poll..
This "poll" must have been at the gun & ammo store. I think most intelligent people recognise this is a political stunt intended to smear the current & future president's.
Meanwhile...."Operation American Spring organizer Harry Riley appeared on Alan Colmes' radio show, where he explained his plan to bring 10-20 million people into the nation's capital for a rally to overthrow Obama with the help of militias".
10 - 20 is more like it. These creeps hang out with their own kind so they think everyone thinks like them. Like hanging out at a gun store in Nevada.

However despicable it was to out her Armitage, Libby, Novak could not have been charged with Treason.
This is not true.
You do not need to be guilty of a crime, to be charged with a crime. There is an excellent program running on FRONTLINE, that tracks how one whistleblower, Thomas Drake, NSA Senior Executive, was so charged, had his career and life ruined, only to have the charges dropped to a minor misdemeanor the day before trial.
At the July sentencing hearing the presiding judge, Richard D. Bennett of the Federal District Court, issued harsh words for the government, saying that it was "unconscionable" to charge a defendant with a list of serious crimes that could have resulted in 35 years in prison only to drop all of the major charges on the eve of trial.[61] The judge also rejected the government's request for a large fine noting that Drake had been financially devastated, losing his $154,600 job at the NSA and his pension.

What Ken just posted is true generally. Once one makes an accusation, your name will be forever associated with that accusation, even if you are acquitted, exonerated, or charges dropped.
I just remember one politician a few decades ago, after complete exoneration, asking rather sadly, "Where do I go to get my reputation back?"
That's why prosecutorial discretion is so vital -- and so often lacking in today's US.

You do not need to be guilty of a crime, to be charged with a crime There is indeed far too much government retribution and bullying for the good of this country.
It is a death of a thousand cuts to our liberty.

If you're just charging people with whatever based on nothing of merit you won't make it too far in the legal profession

This is deplorable and disgusting but unsurprising. We know what kind of people these gun nuts are, and it will be their undoing.

You think so? Looks like the everything is going their way. The NRA had its best month ever, after Sandy Hook.
That lady is taking the wrong approach. She shudda carried and shot that pig on the spot.

Same here (flak for not supporting either invasion). Ironically, relative to this discussion, I was called a traitor many times by people (not posters here) for not being in favor of the invasion of Afghanistan.

So, if 10,000 show up will it be called a raging success?
There were only 250,000 for MLK's famous speech.
10 million would be almost double the population of DC. Where will they park? DC doesn't even have enough parking for the folks that live there!
It would be a MASSIVE logistical undertaking and thousands of buses would need to be hired.
Bring it on militia fruitcakes, let's see whatcha got! (rolls eyes)

Operation American Spring has been given a media blackout with the anticipated monstrous turnout of dissident Americans against the present administration.
