The Greene County, Virginia Republican Committee has sparked outrage by releasing a newsletter which calls for an armed revolution if President Obama is re-elected.
The monthly newsletter, which was first uncovered by Right Wing Watch, tends to be filled with inflammatory right wing rhetoric. But the March edition went a little further than usual.
We have before us a challenge to remove an ideologue unlike anything world history has ever witnessed or recognized, editor Ponch McPhee wrote. An elected leader who shuns biblical praise, handicaps economic ability, disrespects the honor of earned military might.
From there it only gets crazier:
McPhees poor spelling mirrors his poor grasp of history; aside from the notion of the president as historys greatest ideologue, McPhee would do well to remember that Virginias last armed revolution didnt exactly work out.

Just goes to show, no matter how cynical you get, you can't keep up with reality.
