[gblady]

4. chilling....

[Uncle Joe]

5. Kicked and recommended.

Thanks for the thread, n2doc.

[Sheepshank]

6. Planting a seed of martyrdom?

I think Beck is already there. He's got a cult like following, life insurance, the god complex, the revival rally...it's all in place. There's nowhere else for him to go.

[paparush]

26. I think its suggesting that Beck is encouraging a potential shooter

to take action directed at the president.

[anachro1]

46. Except

over his own cliff. Loons like this usually take their own lives. Please take comfort in that; I know I do.

[progressoid]

7. Wow.

You'll never see that around here.

[Demoiselle]

31. Ditto Wow.

Amazing, bitter, brutal, and...true. Oliphant is brilliant.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. Oliphant is so damn good.

Recommended.

[newtothegame]

9. Won't be printed, but not because it's controversial, but because it's not terribly probable. nt

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. Cartoons are not supposed to be probable. nt

[sallyseven]

27. Not terribly probable?

Have you seen the tapes on the tea baggers and listen to the bull they are spewing? I think they would shoot in a second. They are totally brain washed.

[TheCowsCameHome]

29. It only takes one of the fragile-minded Beck/Palin/ followers.........

[Enrique]

40. yeah, dead people can't talk

:crazy:

[FraDon]

10. Pulitzer nomination !

k&r

[gratuitous]

11. Terrific cartoon, but . . .

Why does the fellow on the right look like Abraham Nixon?

[Hassin Bin Sober]

18. There's good eatin' in heaven. And no rasslin'.

[Capn Sunshine]

19. They had the same nose

probably related, according to Nixon. Which is why he drank to the point of hallucination and talked to Abe's portrait towards the end there.

Oh and they were both married to crazy ladies.

[Lifelong Protester]

13. K & R for this chilling bit of truth in a cartoon.

[ThomWV]

14. My goodness! Talk about a cartoon perfectly depicting reality.

[pam4water]

15. Guesses only McClatchy would print. N/T

[WheelWalker]

16. Yikes.

[MarinCoUSA]

17. The criminal right wing will not stop short of assassination. PERIOD!

n/t

[AnArmyVeteran]

43. I agree. They have been lusting for blood for years.

You can't continually spew hate and rage without cosequences.

[BDavinciNY]

20. Oliphant Hits the nail on the head!

If Dr. King was alive to see this mockery of his "I Have a Dream Speech" he would puke.

[annm4peace]

21. excellent

[orbitalman]

22. Stellar !

[raouldukelives]

23. k&r for the truth

[Enthusiast]

24. MLK and Lincoln? I agree. nt

[chimpymustgo]

25. Jeebus...K&R!!

[burnsei sensei]

28. Let us preserve Beck at all costs for the

near-future commitment to a state mental hospital.
The man is more worthy of a straitjacket than he is of an assassin's bullet.

[Deep13]

34. I think the bullet is intended for the President.

RW assholes always want to kill those who disagree, while we as the "good guys" insist on humanity for all.

[burnsei sensei]

42. That's a good point.

Eliminationist rhetoric can easily lead to eliminationist actions.

[mike r]

30. No truer words

This is the most accurate cartoon so far!

[Octafish]

32. K&R

Oliphant is TOPS!

35. they would deny the effects of the causes they so blatantly make

and the media would coddle their wishes, being that media and conservative power are one and the same.


This goes way beyond the word "cartoon". Definitely Pulitzer worthy.

[Deep13]

37. No doubt. nt

[byrok]

36. What?

No fuckin way I just read that on DU!!!

No fuckin way!

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

[Deep13]

38. Apparently, you did not read the qualifier either.

Since I AM a humanitarian, I would never ever want that. It would be beyond a national tragedy since it would mean the KKK sympathizers are still in charge. It would be a global indictment on our country.

[byrok]

41. Your qualifier is meaningless.

You place it there to soften the blow of your thesis, but the point you are actually making comes through loud and clear. I don't believe that you are acurate when you say (para) "It'll hurt them more than us".

Even the suggestion of the **positive** political upside turns my stomach.

I don't come on here to argue, so I'll just leave it at:
reading that on DU sucked.
:eyes:

[Deep13]

45. Well, you're certainly entitled to your opinion.

I think historic fact supports my view that assasignation has political consequences that are better for some than others. I think specifically of Caesar (ended the republic), Lincoln (ended humane reconstruction--radial Republicans waived the bloody flag to punish the South), JFK (we might have had a Civil Rights act anyway, but maybe not), McKinley (put TR in office), RFK (put Nixon in office) MLK (further sanctified what was already a righteous cause.)

And for the record, in no way did I advocated it. That's what Beck and the rest of the Murdock robots have been doing. I only recognized it as possible.

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

39. I've been saying this for years. But not as simply perfect as Oliphant did.

It's the same motive when Michelle Malkin posted the addresses of anti-war protesters.
It's the same motive when Ann Coulter suggested somebody poison Supreme Court Justices.
It's the same motive when O'Reilly constantly went after Dr. Tillman.


It's the same motive when King Henry asked "Who will rid me of this meddlesome priest?"

They're hoping that one nut takes up the "cause" and accomplishes their goal. And they can shed the crocodile tears to the public but toast the assassins behind closed doors.

[Joe Fields]

44. Lasar-like in its precision.
