Do we mean the American war? The Revolution was effected before the war commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people; a change in their religious sentiments, of their duties and obligations... This radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the people was the real American Revolution."

--John Adams, letter to H. Niles, 13 February 1818

GEO societies were developed with a different attitude toward governance. And the eventual suppression of flaming arrows.

By the definition provided in the origins of this post, it could be argued the last elections were an american revolution...

2nd try; It sounds like Adams has summed up the evolution of a movement. Methinks I'll investigate that.

what was in the hearts and minds of many Americans, they'd hire body doubles like S. Hussein did

If you can't win their hearts and minds, then expose their hearts and minds to open oxygen. WHEN IN DOUBT, THIRTY OUT!!

I wouldn't even feel bad if they got taken out...that's an honest opinion. But I guess that's how a lot of people felt when Bush was in office. We are screwed for the immediate future! Maybe more than just immediate.
