‘Hannity’ Regular Erik Rush Calls for Military Coup Against Obama
Because calling for the military to remove the President who won 2 open elections is just what patriots do.
Right Wing Watch reported Thursday that the African-American conservative and frequent Fox News commentator has realized his attempts to have Obama impeached by Congress are not going to work out, so he is changing his tack and asking for a military coup.
In a column for the far-right conspiracy website World Net Daily, Rush wrote, “Were there members of Congress with the courage to do so, ample evidence and leverage exists to quietly demand the resignation of this president and his Cabinet.”
However, since no such heroes have arisen from the Republican-led House of Representatives, “There is the possibility that certain military personnel might lend their support to an effort by Congress to remove the president through methods other than impeachment.”
Rush said that because of a supposed “widespread purge” in the military of officers hostile to the Commander in Chief, other “tactics…might be used (within the law) to oust the Obama cabal.”
Rush wrote that he is not opposed to the United States government itself, but that Obama is a dangerously irresponsible steward of its legacy.
“In truth, there is nothing wrong with the government per se,” he said. “It is like unto a vintage automobile with an intoxicated driver at the wheel. It’s just a matter of getting the keys away.”
