Things aren't looking too good for the Republican Party's messaging machine when a Republican law maker is having to run away from Dana Bash of all people and even former Rudy Giuliani staffer and Wingnut false equivalency king John Avalon is admitting Sarah Palin is inciting violence given the real threats to members of Congress this week.

Dana Bash tries to get Rep. Steve King to respond to why he thought it was alright to do this:

Iowa Congressman Steve King is showing his displeasure with passage of the health care reform bill.

During a protest at the capitol, on Sunday, the western Iowa Republican held up a poster of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

He first gave a "thumbs down" sign. Then, King wiped his hand across her face. That was followed by a slapping motion in front of Pelosi's picture.

Here was King's response to Bash before the coward ran away from her.

King: Well that would be an exaggeration, but this is a melodrama.

(crosstalk)

Bash: Tell me what your goal was with this.

King: My goal is to inspire people to stand up for the Constitution, to stand up to fiscal responsibility and to stand up for the rule of law.

Bash added that he said he condemns any acts of violence. What a guy. I can't imagine how anyone might take him slapping Pelosi's picture as condoning an act of violence toward her, can you?

1. Palin incited hate on the campaign trail too.

This needs to STOP now!

2. Inciting Riots IS against the Law. It WAS in the '60's. What's different now? The rednecks?

4. It's only against the law if you're a liberal or minority.
