In the trenches of WWI in 1915 was the first mass use of hand grenades by British troops. Our dough boys had to be trained to use them for what they were intended for. The first thing they teach you is once the pin is pulled, the grenade is NOT YOUR FRIEND. But your ok until.. you let go of the spoon (handle on the grenade that starts the fuse) Then you have three choices. 1. Throw it at you enemy, 2. Drop it and run or 3. Hold on to it and let it blow up in your face.
The recall is like this for the left. Unknown to the average recall petition signer, they have pulled the pin and let the spoon fly, by opening up the door to the voiding of votes cast.
They have DE-valued the process that so many have fought and died for.
They have opened the door by their temper tantrum. Putting us on the road to losing the one thing our republic has had at it's heart since it's birth. The consent of the governed.
The United States of America is the only place on earth that before the recall lived with the benefit or mistake of it's elections. Except in the cases of high crimes, we stood buy our decisions right or wrong. I wonder if those dough boys, as they scampered for their life across no mans land, would have ever, in their wildest dream, thought someone would make their one vote worthless. Those that backed the recall have.
You see we voted once. In November of 2010. We thought it counted. Guess we were wrong.
Now back to the grenade. You see the left that pulled the pin, popped the spoon and has no place to run. The enemy is well entrenched! So hang on tight! It is going to blow up in your face!
