What has happened to the Republican Party?

They're now giving away addresses of elected Representatives so they can assassinate them by blowing them up!?

Thankfully, the idiots are so damn stupid they got the wrong house.....

Thankfully, the idiots are so damn stupid they got the wrong house.....

Thankfully? It's better that they almost blew up some other person's house instead? No, that's even worse. They're terrorists, but it's worse to be STUPID terrorists, because they can't successfully target their intended victims. No one is safe.

 

[Críostóir]

The Salon article doesn't mention that the guy who first called for the harassment of these Congresspeople, when he heard that the wrong house had been targeted, said "Oh well. Collateral damage."

The Tea Party is a terrorist organization, make no mistake. Precious little hope they'll be treated as one, unfortunately.

 

[DiamondSkin]

WELL WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU THINK WOULD HAPPENED YOU DUMB-FUCK.
Maybe someone should post up HIS address on the internet and see what happens.

The slimebag was acting like he didn't know what would happen.

You tell your party members to be mad and angry.

You rile them up.

You tell them to 'go to war'

You give them their goddamn home address.

And you say you expected to them to just "be closer to their elected official" and sit them down for a chat over tea.

BULLSHIT.

You know what you did, ya scumbag.....

 

[Críostóir]

Christ, that almost sounds like an act of terrorism. The Republican Party is eventually going to end up imploding on itself, and I doubt any of us will miss it.

It IS terrorism. As my friend Jim Macdonald put it, in discussing these very incidents,

Terrorism is the use of force or violence against persons or property in violation of the criminal laws of the United States for purposes of intimidation, coercion, or ransom. I do wonder what the Homeland Security folks are doing about these guys. (Probably nothing, since they aren’t named Mohammad, don’t dress funny, and aren’t brown.)

At first the Tea Baggers just looked like a few people trying to find a funny way to bring their beefs about taxes and government spending to public awareness.

I thought most of them were kooks and some of them a bit clued-out but they did make a couple good points and I figured that anything that got people involved in the public process wasn't all that bad.




but now it's clear that the Tea Baggers are no different from a raging mob of Ku Klux Klansmen, motivated by fear, racism, homophobia and ignorance, trying to rule with intimidation, violence, terrorism and murder.

Fuck them all.

And you know that Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachman are all going to pretend they have nothing to do with this.

Fuck, even John McCain is making excuses for them.

 

[NedNickerson]

It's like 1968, '69 all over again.

 

[Nomenclature]

They need to be put on trial immediately, and prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

 

[Ryuukie]

Disgusting and disgraceful vigilantism. I hope the law prosecutes to the fullest extent possible. And morons like Limbaugh need to get on TV and denounce these antics. It appears that morons only listen to other morons.

 

[JasunStrikesBack]

Just seeing John McCain on TV. He's on there saying essentially "Oh, we don't condone it but Democrats are sleazy and you can't blame people for wanting to do this..."

He's pretty much giving people permission to kill whomever they want.

Back in January on the Coast To Coast AM radio program, George Noory interviewed a psychic who predicted there would be two assassination attempts towards Obama this year - one in April and another in May.

 

[JasunStrikesBack]

Republicans certainly have doubled-down on the crazy.

You're right, aagold76, I've never really believed that people care THIS much about changing rules for insurance companies (which is really all this bill does) would evoke THIS much out-of-perportion anger....

Republicans have just filled the world with bile to bring down the president... they don't care who they hurt in the process.

 

[HornyHenry]

About a decade and a half ago there was talk of a system like Canada's or Great Britain's. I had a feeling we'd never get anything like that. The teabaggers would really throw a fit had we got that type of health care system and eliminated all the profiteering, etc.

 

[Knucklehead]

Today while driving to anm appointment,I was listening to one of the many right wing hosts that litter the radio airwaves.

The female host of the program,like most right wingers was engaged in lying to her listeners.She downplayed the violent threats of the Tea Baggers, as little more than high sholl pranks.

According to this lying cunt, lawmakers weren't recieving death threats at all, but instead they were getting ''prank phone calls." She even compared the threats racial slurs and aborted bombings and other acts of terrorism to using ''woopie cushions and itching powder."So when one of these scumbags blows up ANOTHER building and kills more children,we can be sure this cunt ,like all the right wing pundits will AGAIN,blame the ''fringe elements."

Throughout it all,she had the typical snide,condescending tone of the right wing liar.Her litany was full of the usual attacks on the ''drive by media'' MSNBC and the NY Times featuring prominently in her bile filled attack.

 

[luminum]

Well, Conservatives stoked the crazy for their fire and now they're getting the inferno with it...while everything else is potentially incinerated in the process.

 

[star-warrior]

Sounds familiar Sarah Palin: "Don't Retreat, RELOAD !"

 

[BearBoi]

T-Bagger party leaders also want to bring back Literacy Tests for voters... just like the ones that were used to deny Blacks the right to vote for decades. Watch more here:

 

[DigitalFudge]

Christ, that almost sounds like an act of terrorism.

Um almost?

 

[Críostóir]

Disgusting and disgraceful vigilantism. I hope the law prosecutes to the fullest extent possible. And morons like Limbaugh need to get on TV and denounce these antics. It appears that morons only listen to other morons.

Limbaugh, like most of these assholes who use others to do their violence for them, will not denounce this until someone actually dies. And then he'll blame the "liberals" for acting "as if" right-wing assholes like him had promoted this, blame the victim, and subtly justify the perps.

Just seeing John McCain on TV. He's on there saying essentially "Oh, we don't condone it but Democrats are sleazy and you can't blame people for wanting to do this..."

He's pretty much giving people permission to kill whomever they want.

Yep. He's pretty much a total asshole sleazebag. He's no better than Limbaugh.

we'll see this November if the Republicans do indeed 'implode'...they may well win back the House- which is where all the anger is coming from- their 2008 losses.

Yep. Stamping their little feetsies. Unfortunately when they stamp their feet someone's face is usually under them. Most Americans are pretty childish and selfish, unfortunately. We'll see if they're stupid enough to keep voting for the jackbooted thuggery the GOP has come to represent.

By the way, the cutting of that gas line was terrorism according to the USA PATRIOT Act:

From the Definitions section:

(5) the term “domestic terrorism” means activities that—

(A) involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State;
(B) appear to be intended—

(i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population;
(ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or
(iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and​

(C) occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.​

(Yeah, that outlining is terrible, but that's how USA PATRIOT is written. It's a bad law, but it's worse if it's never applied to right-wing white people who don't have funny names.)

So it fits the definition under 5A/B(ii)/C. Those people should be locked up. Send them to Gitmo, I say.
