Sounds like you are the ones stamping your feet and screaming and crying (Rush, Beck, Hannity). Ignorance abounds these days and no one is putting on the brakes. Right-wingers at political rallies with GUNS strapped on, hate pouring from every sign being carried at Tea Parties, and the WHITE NATIONALISTS just loving all the help they are getting these days. Amazing what corporate American can buy in order to keep their huge, huge profits. Eventually some very mentally imbalanced person will see fit to try to "save his country and his way of life" and commit some unspeakable political violence, compliments of high-powered PR/lobby firms with big-money clients.

Did you see any people attending political rallies or townhall meetings with George Bush who showed up with guns strapped on?

Politics can eat people from the inside out, over time. How many of us in the peanut gallery could actually hang out in the Beltway, dealing with the egomaniacs, and greedy control freaks well into our 70's ? (that is, assuming we have a conscience, and soul). The game can devour anyone. It's an addiction, to some.

do you bother to research anything before posting? so all the left leaning organizations are financed via the Internet and lemonade stands? You seriously need to look at where a lot of the left's money comes from.
You were spot-on with the highlighted text, though

We have never been in short supply of desperate politicians but I can't remember ever witnessing such abhorrent behavior as we are seeing from our current crop.
If you thought what Nancy Pelosi said today was "political posturing, clearly you've become Hopelessly Numb. She's absolutely correct in her observations, IMO. The level of hate and ignorance we are witnessing today is also a reminder of politics in the 1960s. Everyone and "his brother" feels they are a hero if they can compose the best hate sign to carry around regarding this President.

I can't remember ever witnessing such abhorrent behavior as we are seeing from the current crop of factually impaired people such as the birthers, the death panels folks, and the water-the-tree yahoos in my life!

It's time some people grew up and acted responsibly.

The far left whack jobs insist on creating a divide in this country. They see themselves losing support and would rather invent unrest than to admit they are the ones who have lost touch. Only it seems the more they go down this road, the more support they lose.



Capitol Briefing - Republicans Denounce Pelosi for Warning Against 'Incitement'
Whine a lot!
Continue to campaign.
Use the crises talk and dont forget to use urgency.
Get on the talk show circuit.
Whine some more.
Attack FOX at every chance you can and dont forget to single out Beck and Hannity.
Campaign some more and whine and complain and throw in a temper tantrum or two so they know you are really serious.

Freedomworks and Insurance Companies fund the LEFT?

Gee, do you ever bother to research anything before you try to twist the words around?

I'd love to know where you got that little fact from in my post.. must be from that Austin, TX place. Last time I was there I thought I had died and gone straight to hell, which is obviously located somewhere near san francisco.
