Apparently, it's open season on Democrats and Progressives
Whether it's anthrax in the mail or a nutjob suggesting that he shoot Democratic candidates with his machine gun, the signs are obvious, the Right Wing is at war with us, not only politically, but they would very much like for us to be destroyed.

The question we should be asking ourselves is why aren't we fighting back.

3. Too busy eating our own, some of us, unfortunately.
Then again, we've never been a lockstep outfit. Ask Will Rogers.

4. That little reference to Will Rogers was definitely
a wily post.

7. define 'fighting back'
just, so I know what you are suggesting? Is exposing what is happening, enough? Do we need our own nutjob suggesting that he/she shoot 'their' candidates with a machine gun? Do we need to start buying stamps?

I'm not a real big fan of breaking the law, and I'm reasonably sure no one else posting here is either, so... just how does one 'fight back'? :shrug:

8. WE have been fighting back. DC Dems however have been
playing the date rape game by being all bi-partisan with GOPers.

9. I bet if Obama and Hillary
made negative statements about Ted Nugent, because he called for them to be killed the press would eat them up. Every single time any democrat fights back against the hateful hurtful rants of the republicans the MSM has them all over the news in a unflattering light. And you all know that.

Look at the MSM how they jumped on Edwards when he said something about the hag coulter.

10. Why isn't the nutjob arrested yet? Why weren't others arrested for making threats against Democrats?
Like (M)Ann Coulter, Sean Insanity and O'Leilly?
