More violence and threats against Democratic members of Congress:

GOP House Minority Leader John Boehner: “Take [Rep.] Steve Driehaus, for example. He may be a dead man. He can’t go home to the west side of Cincinnati".

FBI investigates propane tank sabotage at VA Rep Tom Perriello's brother's house (after said brother's address was posted online, mistaken for the Congressman's, a by right wing Tea Party blogger).

Sarah Palin's PAC tweets "Don't Retreat, Instead - RELOAD!", and furthermore, uses crosshairs to "target" Democratic reps.

Death threats against noted pro-life Democrat Bart Stupak.


OK, can we at least admit that there's a dangerous trend here? Rachel Maddow has it totally right on.

    None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe that they are free.

    Replace the Koran with a Bible, and these people are just the same as the 9/11 terrorists.

    And thus they can find out if waterboarding really IS torture.

    That's about the dumbest thing I've read on here. When the tea party murders 3000 innocents come on back. I'd say I can't believe anyone would agree with that statement but it seems there are plenty that do. I can't wait until November when you all eat crow.

    I don't think the poster meant the actual action of carrying out terrorism, I think they meant it is the same exact extremist/fundamentalist mindset and philosophy. That's how I read it, and agree. But if they're saying the actions, then yes it is an invalid statement.

    They're no different, because they're seeking to get what they want through violence. Obviously they're too stupid to achieve their aims through peaceful, rational means so they've all grabbed their pitchforks, and their M16''s instead.

    Fucking idiot rednecks.

    There isn't one person out there with an M16, unless he is active military.

    The ignorance of some of you gets thicker each day. The comparison of tea-party protestors and 9/11 terrorists is beyond ridiculous.

    I can't wait for November.

    You are confusing them with more than likely what is an AR-15.

    guns are not my fake area of expertise today, but i think this is a M16. i'm sure someone will set me straight if it's not.

    i have a question....what if these teabaggers making these threats were actually muslims making the threats? how fast would they be found out, rounded up, and detained somewhere? how quickly would the patriot act be applied and how swift would the justice be? but since these are homegrown folks, i am sure that finding them and prosecuting them is not the highest of priorities...

  • All of you are morons. So just beacuase there are a few nut jobs all of you are going to label everyone else?
    That's absurd. So I guess when those on the left were seen breaking store windows and vandelizing cars at the G20 events like they do every year we should label all of you to as anarchist ?
    And I'm still waiting to see any evidence of those congresman being called racial slurs or spat upon. My guess Is that it didn't happen.
