One of reactionary Paul Broun’s ‘Bagger fan club asks him about who will shoot President Obama…to laughter and applause. Move over, Jared Lee Loughner, somebody is bound to take your place as the next Wingnut Assassin.
Tip of the ‘Nose to Film Critic Buddy
Via LeftWord, Arizona GOP Leader Anthony Miller resigns after getting death threats from Tea Bagger Brownshirts. Remember them protesting too much about complaints of Tea Bag racism?
“I wasn’t going to resign but decided to quit after what happened Saturday,” Miller told The Huffington Post Wednesday. “I love the Republican Party but I don’t want to take a bullet for anyone.”
Miller, who is black, said a number of the attacks were racially based. At an event in Lake Havasu City, Ariz., Miller told The Huffington Post that someone called out, “There’s Anthony, get a rope.”
Sign of the times that this story got so little play. Meanwhile, Jon Stewart’s Rally to Restore Sanity already a dim memory, Mark DeMoss officially disbands Civility Project in the face of Tea Bag nastiness. The Reactionaries seem remarkably unrepentant and unwilling to tone down the hate talk, so I’m wondering where the next Reactionary assassination/spree killing will be.
Jared Lee Loughner. 6 dead, 15 wounded.
Scott Roeder. Killed 1.
James von Brunn. Killed: 1
Eric Robert Rudolph. Killed 1, Wounded 111.
Unknown Anthrax Letter Bomber(s). Killed 5, Infected 17.
Timothy McVeigh. Killed 168, Wounded 450.
Notice anything? For the last 20 years, America has been under attack by Reactionary Nut Jobs, not a Liberal among them. Makes it easy to profile terrorists, at least!
*Update 1-10-11* Sarah Palin ‘reloads’ her targeting system – “surveyor’s symbols” not gun sights !!! 10A – Glenn Beck urges Palin to ‘get protection’ because there are “nutjobs on all sides.” Yeah, Ass Clown, but the ones on *your* side are the ones stalking around Town Hall meetings with guns and shooting people! 11A – Jane Hamsher lays out the history of escalating reactionary violence alongside the inciting rhetoric (not exhaustive, doesn’t include all the guys stalking around town hall meetings with guns, nor the loons that plotted to kill Obama. 12:30A – LimpBoy squeals out apologia.
*Update 1-11-11* Poor Bill-O The Clown – what about his security needs? Boo Hoo! 1:30P - LimpBoy has proclaimed that the Reactionary shooter is in fact a Democrat, backed by the Democratic Party!!
*Update 1-24-11* Being a true Republican, Jared Loughner won’t take responsibility for his actions.
The crazy Nazi skinhead who wanted to kill Obama is now asking for the Feds to remove his Nazi tattoos for fear of reprisal in prison. Doesn’t tattoo removal cost a bundle? Feds should comply to the spirit of his request by either modifying his swastika to be a little box with a cross in it, or just covering it with a suitable brand from a cattle ranch. Poor baby!
Looks like the would-be car bomber of Times Square is a middle-aged white guy. All that remains is to find the guy’s misspelled, hand-lettered protest sign and we can confirm that he is a tea-bagger.
*Update 5/4/10* Hmm unbelievable as it might sound, the perp might not be a Bubba, first suspect is a Jihadi. Wonder how long it will take for “Al” Bundy to start working with “Al” Qaeda…?
The hate talk is flying, online now. The reactionaries stalk armed around Town Hall meetings, lurk with their guns in parking lots outside airports when AF1 is in town and strut with their weapons down the National Mall. Now they are taking their UnAmerican hate online – over 1 million asshole reactionaries are now praying for Obama’s demise. Am I the only one who hears the assassination time bomb ticking?
…and weirdly, goes by the sound-alike name McVey. It’s only a matter of time before one of these loonies, hopped up on wrong-wing hate radio, takes a shot at the Prez….
Armed protesters on the National Mall? On the anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing?
Last summer I had remarked on how the complete repudiation of the GOP at the polls would spark a repeat of the wrong-wing wackiness and terror of the late ’90s. I was really expecting more militia activity, abortion clinic terror and media hate talk, all of which has been delivered.
But this so-called Open Carry protest has a whole different quality. The no-dick big-mouth gun nuts now strut into public, family settings like National Parks and Starbucks, brazenly displaying their ability to target and kill us with a squeeze of the trigger.
Now they are marching on the Capitol, brandishing weapons? Are these guys transforming into the Sinn Féin to the militia group’s IRA?
Seriously, it’s just a matter of time now before some wacko unloads on an elected leader or government official – or car bombs another Federal building. Make no mistake, this is terror of the early Nazi brownshirt variety, and the target is you, me and the rule of law.
