Then again, Mr Cantor still has to explain his charge of his office being shot at when clearly he was lying, no?
And furthermore, all these faketriots who encouraged vandalism and damage against Congressional offices should all be arrested too, no?
I used the title I did to make a point. The point is that to say that all the people that attend the tea parties condone violonce or anti semetism is just as absurd for me to say that every one on the left condones what happened to Cantor. or to say that all christians are like Tim Mcveigh, And you are smart enough to know that.
What do you want him to say ? It's a fact that a bullet did hit his office. Now was it intentional or just a bullet that was fired into the air ? From what police are saying it was a gun that was fired into the air,but that still doesnt mean that he lied about it.

Of course they should be prosecuted. I don't condone violence, vandalism or anything of the sorts.gimmesometruth27 wrote:antor is a lying opportunistic racist twat, but he does not deserve to be threatened.blackredyellow wrote:what a bullshit thread title.gimmesometruth27 wrote:not sure what your motives are, but this thread does not make the teabaggers look any better though..
:roll: :roll: I made the choice to use the title I did to make a point. And Im pretty sure there's nothing they could do that would make you like the tea parties gimme. Im sure you would like to see them all silenced and neutralized if you could have your way.
there is no way i will ever like the tea party. it is nothing more than a collection of people who are angry for no apparent reason. and no i do not want to silence anyone, but if you are going to make bullshit arguments like "keep your government hands off my medicare" and other assorted whopper lies, your side deserves to be ridiculed....to me, ridicule is better than silencing...its more fun anyway..."You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln

But what you don't get is that you are one of the nuts on the right.
You have linked Obama with socialism and marxism. You have spewed hatred of his appearance. You have towed the crazy rightwing teaparty line in every thread I have ever seen you post in.
There are many "rightwingers" here on this board. And many of them can have decent dabates and ideas at times. But I have rarely if ever seen a post from you or Ariel that hasn't been some stupid talking point from the teaparties.
Oh really ?? Im a nut . Do I need to refresh your memory How about when you said it was a good thing that people like me were a dieing breed. I have never wished death towards anybody or have I ever said I hated anybody like you have. And Obama is linked with socialism amd marxism all you have to do is look at his past associations,but I know thats probably hard for you to understand and over your head. So why don't you go and resarch his past and then you will see how stupid you look. I don't expect you to though.
and there are not many right wingers on this board.gimmesometruth27 wrote:HELLO! cantor was one of the guys saying there were going to be death panels and that we were going to kill grandma. he was LYING! are we just supposed to forget about the BS him and other republicans were spewing now??? and he lied that he was target4ed when physics proves the bullet came from being shot in the air and did not completely break through the window. there was no excuse for anyone to be firing a gun anyway, just cantor should not exaggerate the threat. this is the same man who said the dems were using the threats for political gain...hello pot, i'm the kettle....
You really need to wake up cos there are already panels that make these end of life decisions for seniors thorugh medicare.

and you need to go and read the bill becuase half the time you are absolutley clueless when it comes to the facts about this bill,but I guess with time when you see how bad this bill really is.
You know you really are quick to put words in peoples mouth. The investigation was done after the fact that he made the claim that he was shot at was it not.0 -

i'm clueless? you are a partisan hack. if you think this law is going to be repealed you have another thing coming.. do you even know what it takes to repeal a law?? i doubt it, so i will explain it for you and the rest of the teabaggers who think they are going to stop this law. first of all both houses have to vote to repeal it, and then the president has to sign the repealed legislation for that to happen. of course the president can always veto the moves by the house and senate, and for that veto to be overturned you would need a 66% majority in both houses, and even on your best day the republicans are not going to take over a 66% majority AND get them all to vote to repeal the law and override the veto....so good luck with that....your side lost and face million to one odds to change things...deal with it..."You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln

....Cantor has proof a bullet went thru his window....police investigated and found that it was a random shot........but there is proof that it happened.....how could he know it was random until he call the police....Now Rep. Andre Carson (D-Ind.), Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) They have no proof there were ever racial epithets directed at them ...NO PROOF..... neither does Barney Frank have proof.....Now who would be the liar? Then one makes a statement he was called the N word 15 times? He was counting? If that happened there would be proof..... I mean there were thousands of people there.....their would be proof....
then the guy who had the line cut on his gas grill OMG...that is just hilarious how the left wanted to make that look like a death threat! I am still waiting to hear the forensics on that one...but I bet there is none....
For the OP that was upset about bricks going thru the Democrats windows....they arrested a democrat for that.....

Can we admit that both sides have nut jobs?Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V0

Great generalization...CONservative governMENt
Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious.

I don't view unemployment benefits as entitlements since the person getting them paid into the program. I'm speaking of the lazy able bodied that have been sucking off the taxpayers' tit for years and refuse to even look for work.0 -

your post implies that it is ok as long as they join the tea party and make their voice heard, otherwise its not ok...."You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln
