This is the funniest thing I have ever read in my life. Right now I'm majoring in Political Science and let me say one thing: if there is a revolution because of Bush I would probably be VERY afraid of those who started the revolution.

As lebell says, the majority of people in the US didn't support the original US revolution. The Russian revolution was certainly instigated by a very small number of radicals. The same applies for the French revolution, and the Irish War of Independence.

The Russian revolution was to shift the government from a monarchy to a republic. By the time the revolution started there was already a Provisional Government and the new government was already beginning to form. People in Russia were not being fed well, there was poverty, and Russia was very late in getting rid of a monarchy system of government in Europe. The Russian Revolution(s) was/were in 1917.
French and Irish Revolutions were both to stop EXTREME oppression. Please, can anyone tell me how their life has become seriously oppressed since Bush took office? You guys are making a fucking mountain out of a mole hill.
A revolution would result in probably hundreds of thousands of casualties. And the revolutionaries will definately lose. Why? You are facing a government that (believe it or not) is very strong, and very intact. There is no real government corruption. If you call what we have corruption, you really should learn a thing or two about history and government. Just because you disagree with a President does not mean that you have to revolt. I am positive that NO senator or representative would support a revolution, Republican or Democrat. A revolting force will face steep opposition and would probably be outnumbered by anti-revolutionaries several thousand to one.
