This is more indication that the revolution may indeed be coming. I am just a bit surprised that this is coming from the right.

If right and left are converging, it would seem the revolution is straight ahead.

Unfortunately, if it is gun-toting, war-mongering right-wingers vs. peace-loving, non-violent left-wingers, I am afraid to predict who will win.

OTOH, how did Gandhi do it?

Here's another one that lends credence to your view: We're on the brink of disaster

'Feb. 26, 2009 | The global economic meltdown has already caused bank failures, bankruptcies, plant closings and foreclosures and will, in the coming year, leave many tens of millions unemployed across the planet. But another perilous consequence of the crash of 2008 has only recently made its appearance: increased civil unrest and ethnic strife. Someday, perhaps, war may follow.'

I still say cobblestones and firebombs don't a revolution make, but they can certainly make civil revolts and chaos...and potentially war.

Why? Who is more fascinated with guns and other things that go 'bang'...or as you say 'gun-toting, war-mongering'? You just spent several years criticizing Bush's tendencies to shred the Constitution and do authoritarian things.
