Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
Do not forget to use the so-called public airwaves (radio) by starting a "pirate" radio station! The FCC cannot stop hundreds of activists putting up stations. They will relent!! Contact me for easy methods.

That is in the famous "Declaration of Independence", authored as we all know by Thomas Jefferson.
And check out Article 10 of the New Hampshire constitution's Bill of Rights:
"Whenever the ends of government are perverted, and public liberty manifestly endangered, and all other means of redress are ineffectual, the people may, and of right ought to reform the old, or establish a new government. The doctrine of nonresistance against arbitrary power, and oppression, is absurd, slavish, and destructive of the good and happiness of mankind."
Similar wording is used in Pennsylvania's constitution,[31] under Article 1, Section 2 of the Declaration of Rights:
"All power is inherent in the people, and all free governments are founded on their authority and instituted for their peace, safety and happiness. For the advancement of these ends they have at all times an inalienable and indefeasible right to alter, reform or abolish their government in such manner as they may think proper."
That is why I wrote yesterday that OWS is a quintessentially AMERICAN movement. The OWS people are the Great Patriots of our time and the memory of their deeds will live on in the hearts and minds of men after we are long gone.

Absolutely! The OWS Patriots ARE the real "Boston Tea Party" of today, the true embodiment of the Spirit of 1776.
By contrast, the "Democratic Party" is corrupt to the core - except for a heroic handful, such as Dennis Kucinich - and they must disappear from the political map ASAP. And disappear they will, because as OWS becomes far stronger and far more popular than the Dems, the traditional Dem base will desert the party and become part of the base of the rising OWS party. The fate of the Democratic Party is to IMPLODE and most of us will be celebratin their demise. What good riddance!
As for the Repugnant... ah... I mean.... Republican GOP, they no longer even deserve to be recognized as a "party", but rather as a laughable "lunatic-fringe", unAmerican tribe of Neanderthals. Some of the most extreme cases may even end up being investigated one day for high treason.
