Well...
A. It's a gross oversimplification to say the government has "Thrown away the founding principles and trampled....", which is actually a big part of the problem in and of itself. Politicians take these incredibly complex issues, pick out a few key talking points to bolster their argument (usually out of context), and throw reason to the wind in driving home their point. I really do feel sorry for anyone who thinks that things like death panels, where the President was born, and whether or not Sarah Palin is influencing people subliminally are the most important issues we face as a nation.
B. Even given the current status of things, I'd say we are a far cry from what those on the left would like their constituents to believe, so what is being done now (on both sides, to be fair) is more subversive than revolutionary. I'm sorry, but those crying Tyrants/Socialists in today's political arena at the top of their longs are making an absolutely uninformed accusation more in the hope that the stigma of it all sticks than that people actually come to understand it.
C. I'm pretty sure the founding fathers had a fairly different idea of the imposition of Tyranny on the US than the way things are today. Of course, that's just a guess...my cart broke a wheel on the way to the signing, and they were all gone by the time I got there.
