Harpers Brings up Possibility of a Coup

April 3rd, 2006 11:12 AM

After the 2004 election, liberals in blue Northeastern states talked secession and the possibility of joining Canada. Now Harpers Magazine is delving into innuendo with an article about the possibility of a coup d'etat on American soil.

Entitled "American Coup d'Etat: Military Thinkers Discuss the Unthinkable," military experts are asked about the plausibility of a coup carried out by the military. They all said a coup would not work because the American people could not be controlled merely by occupying Washington buildings.

But one wonders why Harpers is bringing up the issue in the first place. Underneath it is an article called "The Spirit of Disobedience: An Invitation to Resistance," which discusses the debate over whether America is a Christian nation or an Enlightenment nation.

So the first article is about a coup, the second article is about an "invitation to resistance." Could this be an indication that out-of-power liberals are starting to take seriously the never-ending calls for "revolution" by their extreme left wing?
