Democratic Governor Calls For “Suspending Elections”
News Observer
Tuesday, September 27, 2011
Speaking to a Cary Rotary Club today, N.C. Gov. Bev Perdue suggested suspending Congressional elections for two years so that Congress can focus on economic recovery and not the next election.

“I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years and just tell them we won’t hold it against them, whatever decisions they make, to just let them help this country recover. I really hope that someone can agree with me on that,” Perdue said. “You want people who don’t worry about the next election.”
The comment — which came during a discussion of the economy — perked more than a few ears. It’s unclear whether Perdue, a Democrat, is serious — but her tone was level and she asked others to support her on the idea.
Later Tuesday afternoon, Perdue’s office clarified the remarks: “Come on,” said spokeswoman Chris Mackey in a statement. “Gov. Perdue was obviously using hyperbole to highlight what we can all agree is a serious problem: Washington politicians who focus on their own election instead of what’s best for the people they serve.”

Perdue wasn't joking. She's a fool. But if the belligerent parties of Congress do seek to overtly suppress the will of the people, let them.
Let them suspend elections.
Let them declare martial law.
Let them hear loud whizz-bang answer from the good people (versus the sheeple) of these United States of America :)
There will be a VERY swift, effective, wonderful and patriotic outcome. The whole notion is very exciting.
