Redress of grievances is one thing, the minority petitioning congress to either consider new laws or reconsider old ones. happens all the time from the 1963 civil rights March on Washington down to the seemingly Annual "Tractor Parades" staged by farmers.
But when the minority openly seeks to terrorize and dominate the majority, that is another thing entirely.
then we are deep in N.A.W.A.C. territory as described ironically enough by arch wingnut novelist and Pulitzer Prize winner, Allen Drury in his "Advise and Consent" series.
Just what d'ye suppose all these "Tea Partei Activists" are doing down there on the Washington Mall, intimidation, making themselves seem fierce and frightening though they were soundly repudiated in the last election.
I guarantee you, every one of them voted for McCain if they voted all.
But they still wanna overturn 2010 ahead of schedule and don't give a damn how authoritarian they appear on the evening news.
That is what really is going on here, none of these "activists" gave a hoot in hell as GWB took the country off a cliff but elect a democrat and a black democrat at that and it is Katey Bar the Door!
Rep. Lewis getting called a "nigger" to his face in the halls of the US Capitol pretty such seals that deal for Humble Elias.
Pass the gawd-damned bill, if it mean we will have another "Insanity Summer" worse than 2009 so be it, in the long run the country always recoils from serious electoral dementia, Scott Brown and the rest of the GOP had best take heed.
Falangism is never a good long term strategy.
