We are being blamed by the wackos that we are trying to break up the teabagger movement.
I braved Hannity on the radio for about 10 minutes while I was out running errands.

According to them - there is no violence - just a few people acting out. That most of the people that attend their rallies are everyday people and that the left is making all this up to break up the movement. That was before he went into a tirade of how HCR is the end of America.

I kid you not.

He also played some scary music with clips of Obama taken out of context, saying things like "We are not a Christian nation" and some other stuff along those lines. Fear Fear and more Fear.

And then he boasted about his upcoming Freedom to Steal Money tour and how he would me on tour with Palin and Bachmann.

1. Like they need any help falling apart. . .
Can a movement have ADHD?

3. They must have made these statements
in between their spitting and they yelling out profanity and their threatening bodily harm to duly elected congressfolks and their families.

8. It's true you know
I think the baggers are going to wreck the Repugs. I love it.
Reminds me of what Nader did (does) for the Democrats.

5. Sorry Hannity, you are doing that all by yourselves.
Keep up the good work, though - by the time you and the other talk celebrities are through with breaking the tea party to smithereens, you will have effectively ended any chance for Republicans for the foreseeable future.

I can live with that.

12. They're insoluble in water - no matter how hot
Whatever the substance is that's clogging their neural connections is exceedingly dense, absolutely insoluble & harder than tungsten fucking carbide. Break up their 'movement?' Talk to your erstwhile benefactor Dick Armey about that. He & the moneyed interests he represents are responsible for pulling the rug out from under your astroturf abortion.

11. The hatefreaks like hannity, palin, bachmann,
beck, etc..can't get anywhere without lying..so they can incite the hate even more.

And, btw..those assholes aren't Christian..they're hatemongers.

14. I read some freepers' comments and they claim the violence is really "'Rats pretending to be
teapartiers" so we can CLAIM violence where none really exists. A few of them, though, said things like it should be EXPECTED that those who "take away our freedoms" are attacked. :eyes:

15. This is to be expected. Lets see if they tone down some of the rhetoric.
They certainly aren't going to fess up to inciting these kinds of things and they will try and sermonize Democrats for even suggesting there is a real issue with RW violence.

It's our patriotic duty to try at least.
