As the town hall meetings on health care started in early August, the Democratic Party's talking points accused the attending citizens of being "demonstrators hired by K Street lobbyists." Then they started calling them a "mob." Getting into the spirit of his party, Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid called those who oppose Obamacare "evil." Then House Democratic Majority Leader Steny Hoyer called the dissenters "un-American." For good measure, Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi accused them of being Nazis.
Former Democratic President Jimmy Carter followed with the assertion that "racism" motivates President Barack Obama's health care opponents. The culmination -- so far -- of this cataract of calumnies was voiced by Pelosi, who, after calling her opposition Nazis, audaciously and chillingly implied that their rhetoric might cause an assassination (as she alleged conservative homophobic rhetoric did in the 1970s): "I have concerns about some of the language that is being used, because I saw this myself in the late '70s in San Francisco. This kind of rhetoric was very frightening."
Then the president lamented the "coarsening" of the civic dialogue, observing over the weekend on CNN that "it's important for the media -- you know, not to do any media-bashing here -- to recognize that right now, in this 24-hour news cycle, the easiest way to get on CNN or Fox or any of the other stations ... is to just say something rude and outrageous. If you're civil and polite and you're sensible and you don't exaggerate the bad things about your opponent ... you might get on one of the Sunday morning shows, but you're not going to be on the loop.(continued)

A November tsumami beckons.
Come off it Tony. This will never happen. And your cheerleading for the Stupid Party does nothing to solve the problem.
It makes me giddy just thinking about it.
He makes some great points here. One of the most interesting things he points out is the fact that it is the leaders of the Democratic party that are using the inflammatory rhetoric, while the Republican leadership are staying civil. Of course, the state-run media will never dare mention that.
The Democratic refuse will be washed out to sea ... leaving behind the Republican dreck.
Whoopee!
I would not bet the farm on it.
What’s with the The Washington Post as a source.
Blankley is a Times guy.
Perhaps we should refer to Pelosi as, "Nanzi" from now on...
That’s 2DV trying to eat a big, juicy pork steak w/fried potatoes and post at the same time.
The criminal enterprise leadership know what they would have done had the shoe been on the other foot. They would have hired demonstrators (probably from SEIU and ACORN, paid with taxpayer monies), would have used fascist viloence , etc. So, it’s no surprise that the democrats expected the Pubbies to do that same, except the Tea Party gathering protests were not Republican functions, they were conservatives’ functions.
Lol, no problems, I was gonna see if he went to the dark side, thats all.
The only question is who will act first.
My bet is Pelosi will order her team to assissinate Obama and Biden before they get off the dime.
This is a chance for Stenny Hoyer to step forward as a "real American hero" and put a stop to this.
"Burn Baby Burn..."
Once one understands the fact that a communist does not quite rise to the level of a human being, then they are ready for the events that the left has planned. And believe me, the left has some events planned. Nanzi Pelosi, et. al., speaks of fears of coming violence because she wants her comrades to start some violence. To some extent, her words are marching orders to the SEIU and ACORN thugs.
I doubt that she fully understands the resolve of the ordinary citizen in this battle.
If that's the case, I wouldn't feel bad if they all acted at once!
TPXII is on it.
It's going to turn on them, check out what is happening:
Let's keep it in their faces!
“A November Tsunami Beckons”
Nah. The electorate will fall for the up-to-the-minute spin and vote for more Democrats. (Don’t bet on any tsunamis with this “electorate”.)

My first attempt at a Congressional Un-elect hit list is posted at the below link. It shows how each congressman voted on 4 bills and those highlighted in yellow are the ones who betrayed US.

The Blue type on congressmen’s names are links that give full details about their voting record and political bearing.
It is a work in progress, but I think it is a good start.
Nancy must have forgotten the only ‘violence’ in the Tea Party & Townhall meetings were caused by the union thugs called out by Obama, who told them to “push back twice as hard”
One black man was thrown to the ground by SEIU member,.
Another man in L.A. had his finger bitten off by an Obama supporter.
There were other incidents, too....
We will watch the ship right itself or sink with it.
Right! We not only have to wash out the commie rats we have to clean the republican house as well.
The Left has been airing their contempt for ordinary Americans for YEARS. It’s only that people are just now waking up. Does anyone remember the “Little Eichmanns” comment about the people killed on 9/11? In a sane world, that’s a tar-and-feathering offense.
I prefer to refer to Pelosi as a totally insane and utterly despicable piece of human garbage unfit to clean toilets, let alone serve as speaker of the house.
Rats !!!
The Democratic Party is playing with fire -- particularly its charge of racism. Once again, the president correctly rejected that rhetoric. I don't know whether those Democrats who wield that hateful charge -- from Carter on down -- have any sense of the outrage they are engendering.
I'm betting that they are fully aware. Agitation is their business; even though they are cretins with a primitive, solipsistic world view, they have an end in mind when they open their pie-holes. They intend to guilt us into submission. They've chosen an enemy, and it's us. The campaign, in my opinion, is aimed at various discrete groups(women, 'hispanics', little kids, etc.)in orter to solidify some vague, generic support against the 'fringe right' which is anyone who rejects the current socialist offensive. And so what if the BO 'rejects' the rhetoric. His figurehead is on the rotten rat infested ship, and he's skippering it, even right into the whirlpool. Whatever the outcome of all this, it will be an obama outcome, nowhere to point a finger when one party thinks it controls it all, from top to bottom.
Great work, Texas Fossil! I appreciate what you’ve done. This should be a great tool for deciding whose opponent to support in 2010.
Thanks, again it is a work in progress.
