and here are 100 op-ed pieces expressing a wide sampling of opinion compiled over 100 days about progams and/or proposals by Bush over 100 days:

Look, so far, one person has asked me to explain away all of the nonsense against a particular fraternity that I belong to. Next, I'm supposed to answer for all of the accusation made against Clinton. It's damned easy to link to web sites that have paranoid content and then ask someone to explain it for them. Hey! That's not my job! Not onloy that, it's just plain stupid to answer anything of that nature, as the person posting it will just keep doing it and sit back and laugh themselves sick watching you try to explain the completely irrational. THEN, that same person slams you for not answering them!
Now, if a reasonable question came from within that person of their own mind and their own curiosity - not somthing that someone else thought up and that they copied into their mind to regurgitate back at me, concerning any of these subjects, I'd be more than happy to try to answer them: but only if I felt that the writer is sincere about it. So far, I haven't seen a lot of it from that person's post IMO and I refuse to respond to nonsense in any event.

Well chococake if you really want to revolt the only thing that would hurt these people is something that would cost major bucks. That is all they care about.
I assume you do not have a large group of people and don't intend an old fashioned armed in the streets coup.
If you are a shooter it would be more effective to systematiclly go around shooting insulators on major power supply lines.
It disrupts the economy. Is impossible to guard them all, and it beats shooting politicians of whom they seem to have an infinate supply. Crimes against property are always treated easier.
Don't expect a wave of popular support however as it pisses people off to have their lives disrupted. The Shining Path used this tactic well in Peru.
With the overload of the grid in summer temperatures you might be able to bring the whole grid down.

Here, I believe, but am not exactly sure of, the process is where you circulate a signiture petition and then a vote is held on it. If the vote goes against the politician, that politican is out of a job and new elections are scheduled. I know that not every state has the petition system, so it would take someone knowledgeable about such things to coordinate such a nation-wide drive.
But even if a nation-wide drive did not succeed in part or in whole, it would send a clear, unmistakable message to the politicans that they had either get to work in OUR best interests or else they'll be out of a job - at best.
no guns or weapons, please!
