But keep on going out there on the left ......
This is not some problem from the right, ESPECIALLY since the tea party is DEAD CENTER AMERICA.
There are whackos everywhere, supporting everything, from right to left, you know, sort of like Obama's good buddy,.. Bill Ayers. The one who helps to create national curricula.
I don't know of a parallel on the right. It would have to be someone like a KKK chief, like Robert Byrd, I suppose ...oh wait..
UPDATE ON THE ARRESTED INDIVIDUAL:
The U.S. Attorney in Philadelphia released this statement today. The text of an accompanying affidavit is also below. TPM's ongoing coverage of the story is here.
PRESS RELEASE

Levy and FBI Special Agent in Charge Jan Fedarcyk. As set forth in the affidavit to the complaint and warrant, in or about late March, 2010, Leboon created and then transmitted a YouTube video to Google over the internet, in which he threatened to kill Congressman Cantor and his family.

An Obama donor, and a person of a certain religious persuasion.
Does it mean anything Montana?
Does it mean the leaders of the left are boorish commanders of mindless dullards poised over their Qurans to kill the jews in congress not sufficiently progressive?
Your ideas are a farce of inexperienced wishful hate thinking
Since their inception the Teaparty crowd (not a movement since they do have the numbers or clout) have been “haters not debaters”. In my opinion this is what the small portions of the republican party of “birthers, baggers and blowhards” have brought you. They are good at “Follow the Leader” of their dullard leaders, they listen to Beck, Hedgecock, Hannity, O’Reilly, Rush and Savage and the rest of the Blowhards. Are you surprise at what they do when you know what they think? The world is complicated and most republicans (Hamiliton, Lincoln, Roosevelt) believe that we should use government a little to increase social mobility, now its about dancing around the claim of government is the problem. The sainted Reagan passed the biggest tax increase in American history and as a result federal employment increased, but facts are lost when mired in mysticism and superstition. Although some republicans are trying to distant themselves from this fringe most of them are just going along and fanning the flames. Lets face it the Republicans had 8 years to deal with health care, immigration and financial oversight and governance and they failed. They could not even win one of the two wars they started, the body bags are still coming in. The Republicans wanted to give Obama his Waterloo defeat over healthcare but instead they gave themselves their own Waterloo defeat by not participating in the debate of ideas and by becoming the party of obstructionist. But they now claim they have changed, come on, what sucker is going to believe that?
ReplyDeleteThat would be A MASS SPAM montana
