CNN analyst David Gergen said yesterday there will be bloodshed. He thinks it will be isolated, but some nut will go off in reaction the the overheated rhetoric. He also says Dems are "out of bounds" to use it for fundraising. I agree.

YES!

More Threats of Violence From Tea Party - This Time It's Local

(link...)

Apparently that bloviate Halloren Hill did his show today about death threats being a form of freedom of speech. I did not listen long, but there were some real doozies that called in. HH kept saying that the left is doing it also and one caller kept asking who and what on the left said anything like a death threat. HH said that when Olberman goes on his tirades it can be considered a threat.

HH was saying that it is okay to threaten and as long as you are not pulling the trigger, you can say anything.

Somebody should tell HH about 18 USC 871

Could someone remind David Gergan and Halloran Hill there has been bloodshed here in K-town at the Unitarian Church in 2008?

Adkisson's intention was to kill liberals.When police searched Adkisson's apartment they found it filled with books and newsletters penned by Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, and other right-wing hate talkers.

He wrote this about his plans:

"Know this if nothing else: This was a hate crime. I hate the damn left-wing liberals. There is a vast left-wing conspiracy in this country & these liberals are working together to attack every decent & honorable institution in the nation, trying to turn this country into a communist state. Shame on them....

"This was a symbolic killing. Who I wanted to kill was every Democrat in the Senate & House, the 100 people in Bernard Goldberg's book. I'd like to kill everyone in the mainstream media. But I know those people were inaccessible to me. I couldn't get to the generals & high ranking officers of the Marxist movement so I went after the foot soldiers, the chickenshit liberals that vote in these traitorous people. Someone had to get the ball rolling. I volunteered. I hope others do the same. It's the only way we can rid America of this cancerous pestilence."

"I thought I'd do something good for this Country Kill Democrats til the cops kill me....Liberals are a pest like termites. Millions of them Each little bite contributes to the downfall of this great nation. The only way we can rid ourselves of this evil is to kill them in the streets. Kill them where they gather. I'd like to encourage other like minded people to do what I've done. If life aint worth living anymore don't just kill yourself. do something for your Country before you go. Go Kill Liberals.

The GOP needs more idiots with functioning memories of 1778.

I can tell you the Tea Party are not Progressives.

The "progressive movement" is the root of all evil in American politics, a "cancer" and a "virus" and a "parasite" that has "infected" both the Democratic and Republican parties.

When Ronald Reagan labeled the Soviet Union as the “Evil Empire”, the progressives went nuts. When George Bush called Iran, Iraq and North Korea “The Axis of Evil” they went nuts again. Progressivism, the Americanized version of European and Asian socialism, is made up mostly of hard-core socialists and secular humanists. Progressivism does not recognize the concept of evil. It believes in the perfectibility of human nature and the promise of utopia here on earth to be brought about by the enlightened, benevolent hand of government.

Masquerading as the savior of humanity, in reality all socialism, whether labeled socialism, Nazism, fascism, communism, or progressivism is the very essence of evil. During the twentieth century, socialism in its various forms was responsible for the slaughter of untold millions of innocent people through genocide, war, and political purges. In the Union of Soviet Socialistic Republics, 60 million were slaughtered; under the Nationalist Socialists German Workers Party, 20 million; and under the People’s Republic of China, 50 million. Add to that the millions who died under Pol Pot, Castro, Ho Chi Minh, and other socialists dictators, and you have an unbelievable amount of human suffering that can only be ascribed to evil.

For those unfortunate enough to live under one of the forms of socialism, life consists of misery, oppression and deprivation. Considering the consistent failure of socialism during its hundred and fifty year history, it is difficult to understand how any sane person could voluntarily choose it as the preferred systems of government and economics. There has never been an experiment in socialism of any duration that can be pointed to as an example of a successful culture. Every time it is tried, it fails miserably. To understand this incongruity of human experience we only have to look at the recent history of our own country.

Socialism is never presented as “socialism”. In fact, the most ardent supporters of socialist policies are offended when someone identifies them as socialists. In America, socialism is sold under the pseudonyms of “liberalism”, “progressivism” and occasionally “fiscal conservatism“. For that reason, most people who support socialist policies do so without knowing they are embracing socialism. The essence of socialism is deception. At first glance, it appears that socialist policies are motivated by the highest of human ideals, compassion, concern, caring, sympathy, etc. Socialists’ appeals are made on behalf of the poor, the children, the disenfranchised, and those who have been unfortunate in life’s lottery. The reality is that socialism appeals to the basest of human flaws: jealousy, hatred, greed and envy.

Progressives’ most potent weapon against capitalism is class envy and jealousy. Early on, they perfected the technique of demonizing “big business”. In the late eighteen hundreds progressives discovered that if they stereotyped “big businesses” as the enemy of the very people they served, the people, in return would grant progressives political power, not only over businesses but in other areas as well. Politicians found that by blaming the “robber barons of industry” for the ills of society— and there were many— they could win votes and support for their policies by posing as champions of the oppressed.

In the early stages of the progressive era, the targets were the railroads, oil companies, steel companies, tobacco companies, and others who were instrumental in raising the standard of living for the American People. Progressive demonization of “big business” reached a high point under President William McKinley in 1898 with the formation of the “U.S. Industrial Commission on Trusts”. Theodore Roosevelt won the Presidency in 1900 on the basis of his attacks on “big business”, and “trust busting” became the theme for his time in office. However, William Howard Taft who succeeded Roosevelt as President was even more successful, breaking up 90 large firms during his four years in office compared with Roosevelt’s 44 during his eight-year term.

The vilification of “big business” proved so politically successful for the progressives in the beginning that they have continued to use the tactic ever since to gain public support for their policies. The “villain du jour” currently is the insurance industry. A year ago, it was the banks. It all depends on what progressive policy is being pushed at the time. By successfully blaming the banking industry for our current economic woes rather than destructive government economic policies, Congress was able to gain support for its “bailout” packages. It is now attempting the same thing with health care, blaming insurance company “greed” for its high cost in order to gain support for their “reform” proposals.

Unfortunately, it seems to be working. The entity most often blamed by the media, and ultimately the public, for the exorbitant cost of health care is insurance company greed. The fact is that insurance companies are in general no more profitable than other companies of similar size, and a large percentage of their profits come from investments, not premiums. The real greed comes not from capitalism but from progressivism. The number one attraction of progressivism is its promise to provide the public with economic benefits they have not earned by forcefully taking from the earnings of others. This attitude is the epitome of greed.

Deception, corruption, envy, greed, jealously, coercion, thievery and wholesale murder mark the existence of socialism in the world. Socialism in America is represented by the progressives in and out of government, primarily in the Democratic Party but extant in the Republican Party as well, only to a lesser degree. The true “Axis of Evil” in America, that threatens to destroy the most successful system of government in world history are the progressive politicians, public sector unions, and federal bureaucracies.

In other words, for a progressive it is better to make everyone live in safety as a slave than to live in danger with Liberty. Progressives feel they are entitled to all of the best that life has to offer whether or not they contribute to their own success. Progressives are the cancer, the plague that could eventually destroy mankind and any remote concept of Freedom. Not to mention, the world economy and America as we know it.

Phew, EricPearsonforCongress.

Are you paid by the word? You got 1,103 for them posted up there. That's talent!

p.s.: Would it kill you to use spellcheck once in awhile?

Wow. That Mister Tennessee DemocratforCongress is on the same page as Glenn Beck, as well as those uber-conservatives in Illinois.

was a way to ignore Ericwhatchamadoodleforcongress (NOT VERIFIED) so I don't have to read his bullshit posts...I already ignored him once...that should have been enough.

I love the way you think, Tali.

'Put together' as in copy and paste.

You didn't even bother to weed out the 'Click here and watch an indoctrination video made by progressives for our children.' from your borrowed page.

You could at least learn how to preserve the original hyperlink when you steal material.

Some might be, but I'll wager the majority are just frightened, undereducated, and misinformed citizens who've been whipped into a frenzy by right-wing radio and Fox News 'hate hosts.' Frankly, I'm more concerned with Christian militia terrorism than I am with a group of people who were so clueless that they first termed themselves 'Teabaggers' (eeeewww to that).

Case in point for my concern, the recent arrest of nine members of Hutaree, Christian terrorists who were allegedly planning to kill law enforcement officers. That they seem to believe themselves to be Christians is just as mind-boggling as their terrorist machinations.

I'm curious to see if anything ugly occurs from other Christian militia terrorists on April 19 (anniversary of Ruby Ridge and Timothy McVeigh's domestic terrorism).

I checked, and the tea party is not involved with anything you said

Trust me , I checked.

If you say the sun is shining, a trip to the window for verification would be in order.

If you want I can post the information.

Gonna steal some more text?

Can we vote him off the site? He is just a silly nuisance even if some of you are having fun baiting him. It's like watching my cat play with a bug, batting it around and just teasing it.

Domestic terrorist defined: Title 18 Part I U.S.C. Chapter 113B § 2331 Definitions

Terrorism defined: Title 22 Chapter 38 § 2656

I'm no lawyer but do you really have to be one to figure this one out?

Strange thing is, even Nevada's Tea Bagger-friendly governor got one.
