Jindal says rebellion brewing against Washington

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal on Saturday night accused President Barack Obama and other Democrats of waging wars against religious liberty and education and said that a rebellion is brewing in the U.S. with people ready for "a hostile takeover" of the nation's capital.

Jindal spoke at the annual conference hosted by the Faith and Freedom Coalition, a group led by longtime Christian activist Ralph Reed. Organizers said more than 1,000 evangelical leaders attended the three-day gathering. Republican officials across the political spectrum concede that evangelical voters continue to play a critical role in GOP politics.

"I can sense right now a rebellion brewing amongst these United States," Jindal said, "where people are ready for a hostile takeover of Washington, D.C., to preserve the American Dream for our children and grandchildren."

The governor said there was a "silent war" on religious liberty being fought in the U.S. — a country that he said was built on that liberty.

Bobby certainly is trying his best to outstupid the stupid party with remarks like these.

says that he feels a rebellion brewing, and extreemist groups take that as encouragement to comit acts of violence, would that person be guilty of "accessory before the fact"?

I know that normally the incitor has to have a more direct roll, such as ordering the crimes, but I would think that the standards would be a little different for a powerful elected official using a mass media platform. But a lawyer I am not.
