Louise Slaughter and Bart Stupak have received death threats.
A tea party participant published what he thought was Thomas Perriello’s home address and urged disgruntled voters to “drop by” for a “good face-to-face chat.”
Vandals broke windows at Slaughter’s office in New York and Gabrielle Giffords’s office in Arizona.
And angry voters are planning to protest this weekend at the home of Steve Driehaus — who’s already seen a photograph of his children used in a newspaper ad published by reform opponents.
The vitriolic health care debate has become personal — too personal, say House Democrats who voted for the bill and now find not just themselves but their families in the cross hairs of opponents.

Good. They should be afraid.
Sorry. When you fight the American People, They fight back.
It’s always been this way, it will always be this way. What did they expect?
I think all of their addresses should be published. Let them suffer the consequences.
Guess they forgot what Jefferson said about the tree of liberty being watered with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
It will only get worse, I predict. People are angry because these idiots refused to listen to us. Hell hath no fury like voters spurned.
Keep it up.
This is what happens when lawmakers don’t listen.
Yeah, and I recall Baldwin calling for Henry Hyde’s family to be killed on national tv. I don’t recall much outrage from Democrats.
I certainly don’t advocate harming anyone, however, protests in front of your representative’s home, when they clearly are not listening to you, is something they should expect.
It’s just getting started...
The country is hungry and the government says, “Let them eat cake.”.............
These vermin ain't seen nuthin’ yet. November is getting ever closer.
Didn’t Diehaus understand how much his constituency opposed the bill? Didn’t he know there would be a cost for choosing his party over his constituents? Did he buy the Democratic propoganda that the Tea Party is just a Republican equivalent of ACORN?
Tell it to Sarah Palin's children, scumbag.
They need to go back and read up on the Sons of Liberty and how that group reacted after the Stamp Act...
Interesting how the tin eared politicos passed the bill on the aniversary of the Stamp Act, btw....
Paging Dan Rostenkowski. Paging Mr. Dan Rostenkowski. Cleanup on Aisle 6.
Good post and GREAT tagline!
It was A-OK to make things “personal” when it involved Sarah Palin’s family. Now that the shoe’s on the other foot ...
As a senior in HS in 1972, I was called "baby killer" and other fine names during my last two months of HS. Why? I had the temerity to accept a 4 year Army ROTC scholarship.
I have never forgotten those last two months of HS.
Dear Congress: Aggressive actions against people have consequences. Consider HCR to be the equivalent of Bunker Hill. You’ll be sorry you won the battle.
OTOH, we don’t want any innocents to be hurt.
shouldn’t the D-Baggers (Dems) being doing their “why do they hate us” handwringing ....like they do when terrorists strike at an American target?
“The vitriolic health care debate has become personal — too personal, say House Democrats who voted for the bill and now find not just themselves but their families in the cross hairs of opponents.”
Did they NOT KNOW that MY family’s health is MY PERSONAL business!!!
A rope for these tyrants would be very personal.
I am happy that this happening to these elitist pigs. The sooner we can rid of them, the better. We have tried to be peaceful but enough is enough. Luckily, we have the guns...what do libs have?
If they can’t take the heat they should resign. This is what happens when you put yor intersest ahead of the peoples interest.
I don’t like the death threats. That’s going to far. We don’t need to do that. Take it up in the courts and on election day and on our knees in prayer.
This is shaping up to be a long hot summer.
Remember Ben Nelson getting chased out of a restaurant after the Christmas eve vote?
And those people had access to silverware.
When communist thugs steal and take bribes, they get all that comes with it.
This can only get worse as they choke off what little freedom we have left.
Personal...families? WTF???? These politicians raise our taxes, destroy our schools, and our now are controlling our health...and they're worried about getting personal? FU D-Baggers.
Interesting how the tin eared politicos passed the bill on the aniversary of the Stamp Act, btw....

Roofers have the tar. Who has the feathers?
Passing laws on my body made it personal.
A few broken windows, a few death threats, ho hum, if I said what we should do, I would get banned.
'Cept in the 60s the media were cheering the protestors on.
This time they'll be urging the Nat'l Guard to shoot.
Minnick’s got an office in Coeur d’Alene. We can always stop by and say howdy should it become prudent and necessary.
Exactly! They don't seem to understand that THEY have made this personal and that THEY are trying to overthrow our government and our constitution.
What did they expect. When you kick millions of Americans in the face something is bound to happen. That’s life. People get a little up tight supporting criminal corrupt jackasses. Don’t support it but I realize if you slap some people in the face you get slapped back.
I hope these traitors live in non-stop fear for the rest of their lives that either a fist or a bullet is waiting just around the corner for them. The bastards sold our country, our very birthrite, down the river to socialist enslavement. Burn in hell, all of you!
I was thinking something like Jehu and the house of Ahab
All bets are off now. If we don’t use their own tactics against them at the minimum then we have already lost. Sorry. Yeah I know, stooping to someone else’s level is normally a bad thing but these are bad times. Should we be moral when dealing with an immoral enemy? That hasn’t worked for a long time. Why should we think it will work now?
I don’t advocate violence, but I DO believe that physicians should refuse to treat ANY of the jerks who voted for this abomination.
“I think all of their addresses should be published. Let them suffer the consequences.”
Well...they have our addresses why shouldn’t we have theirs?
BTW, no, I don’t believe in violence but I do believe in peaceful protests in their districts. Protesting in their own districts makes it “personal” to them, IMO.
I also believe all this “make-believe” racism and violence is being manufactured for the Dems to use as a shield to hide behind. I feel NO sympathy for any of those traitors!
Personally, I think Driehaus was ran and funded for just these votes. He could care less what happens in November. I have to listen to him on the radio when he calls into the local station... he is a liar and pretty stupid. He made his deal for Soros money. I wonder how many other districts this happened in.
Should have thought of that before you betrayed millions of people. Live with the consequences.
In my many years I have come to a conclusion that one useless man is a
shame, two is a law firm and three or more is a congress. — John Adams
To be perfectly fair, the Socialist Democraps started this battle.
Consider it joined.
Your statement is interesting. Remember the pro-aborts who chant “Keep your laws off my body” when it comes to abortion? Where are those nags now? Too busy celebrating that this law allows for taxpayer-funded abortion, I’d gather.
