The most important thing that can come out of this incident is ORGANIZING to stop the TeaBaggers.
Edited on Sun Jan-09-11 03:29 PM by RBInMaine
We must organize to pound the by-Jesus out of them in 2012 at the ballot box, to win the political fights to come in Congress over the next two years, and to take back the microphones and say NO MORE to their hateful, violent, CRAZY, cement-headed rhetoric. If this doesn't have Democrats/Progressives/Moderates ready to UNITE BIGTIME and give the right wing an electoral thrashing in 2012, I don't know what will.

As to the suspect, I've seen the You Tube statements. The guy harbors right wing radical views (ie. needing gold-backed currency standards, that the government is brainwashing us with non-English grammar,negative comments SPECIFICALLY about the 8th congressional district, etc.) He obviously PLANNED his actions and knew full well what he was doing. He targeted THIS district and THIS congressional member. We'll find out if he has any direct connections to the right wing political movement, but he certainly harbors many of their whacko "anti-government" views just at McVeigh did. And there is no doubt that the right wing violence talk like Palin's "lock and load" and Angle's "second amendment remedies" need to be confronted BIGTIME and NOT TOLERATED ANYMORE since they serve to fuel the fire that makes these radical timebombs go off. It was only a matter of time, given the radical right wing vitriol, that something like this would happen. (Actually, the right wing plane crash guy last year already did something like this. So now this is TWICE.)
