Revolution in the Ukraine
The outgoing Ukrainian President described the situation in the Ukraine as a "revolution". Since the Ukrainian Supreme court ruled that the election results should be put on hold, citizens supporting the challenger have surrounded key government buildings in peaceful protests.
Many US citizens have similar distrust in the November election results. What will it take for average Democrats to take their outrage to the streets? We are so brainwashed by the illusion of American democracy that people don't want to accept that this country is anything but democratic. The concepts of democracy and capitalism have become so intertwined that people believe them to be the same.
Watch the events unfold in the Ukraine. The tolerance for these protesters will fade and the military will eventually take back control of government buildings. I wonder whether the fight will end there....
