Rep. Gabrielle Giffords supporter and Tucson massacre survivor J. Eric Fuller, who was reportedly arrested Saturday at a ABC News townhall meeting for making a death threat against a local Tea Party leader, is a barking moonbat according to an interview with him by Media Matters for America.
Fuller is a 63 year old Navy veteran who says he has post traumatic stress disorder. However, his comments and reported actions today bespeak a barking moonbat who has had his brain basted in the toxic hate of the Democratic party, MSNBC, Air America, Huffington Post, Daily Kos, etc.
Fuller's outburst today, where he allegedly yelled, "You're dead!" at Tucson Tea Party leader Trent Humphries, is in line with the out of control nature of his comments made to Media Matters earlier this week:
Fuller on why he won't go on Fox News (even though the network had not invited him):
"I am afraid that might develop into a screaming session because I think they promote the war, I think I ought to pass on that, talking to Fox, I don't like what they're selling.
"I would stand up and just scream 'whores' at them, with my leg bleeding, and shock and with the congress lady laying on the pavement after having a slug pass through her head.
"I know they're just going to attack, they would probably attack me. They'll distort. Particularly Miss Blood Libel herself. The spoiled princess party. I am willing to take them on. I want to call them out and see if they have a peep to say."
Fuller on Sarah Palin:
"I would put Sarah Palin in first place there. I think, really, she should be incarcerated for treason for advocating assassinating public officials. That map I saw that she published on the Internet had crosshairs on it and one of them was meant for Gabrielle Giffords."
And:
"Sarah Palin doesn't bother to learn the spelling of repudiate and tosses out 'blood libel' like it was a jar of peanut butter, but does she know anything? Probably about as much as (former Giffords opponent) Jesse Kelly."
Fuller also attacks Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity:
"Definitely. Let's say through some fluke Jared Loughner never ever heard of Sarah Palin or [Glenn] Beck or Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity and the rest of the crime syndicate, and dreamed it all up on his own, that he'd go over there and wack her.
"There are still plenty of demented people that are in need of a good spanking who are out there and plenty of access with the gun shops to assault weapons thanks to the son of privilege letting that expire. There is the matter of the media attention to it. It is going to make this even more desirable yet.
"If you are going to scream hatred and preach hatred, you're going to sow it after a while if you've got a soap box like they've got. We've got a surplus of demented dingbats, wackos."
Fuller who was shot in the knee and took shrapnel in his back, says he drove himself to the hospital after the shooting. He says he worked on Giffords campaign and thinks very highly of her:
"This woman is a spotless, purest, sweetest lamb in the world, gunned down ... The only word I could think of is outraged."
Fuller says he has had numerous reporters and news outlets come to his home. He has also done several TV interviews:
"I've gone through at least a dozen video sessions. I've got ABC, CBS and NBC and The New York Times and the New York Post." He also spoke with Democracy Now.
Free at last!
Free at last!
BLAME IT ON THE WAR. MAN.
Does not matter which war.
Still, it’s Bush’s fault.
What about Markos Moulitsas? Shouldn't he be arrested too?
That guy sounds as crazy as Jared.
What were the comments that set him off??
The ones that he had to make death threats over?
Did they ask him if he was wearing his red thong???
You brought tears to my eyes. God bless you, too.
OMG
BWAHAHAHAHA !!!!
I about fell off my sofa laughing !!
If we, the Tea Party, are so “strung out and violent”, wouldn't we have committed some atrocious act......as the left have done thus far?
They can spew all they want. The sleeping giant has awaken....and the left is trembling in fear, as they should.
All the violence has come from the left. Don't pi$$ on my head and tell me it's raining. I am no longer asleep.
The name of Obama’s game is: Let the liberal media rile up the left with wild accusations about Palin, Limbaugh and the rest of his “enemies”; then sit back and watch his “constituency” go wild with death threats and violent talk - all the while of accusing the Conservative Tea Party of being the “real” aggressors. Elegant, Man. Obama’s cool, Man. s/ (Any which way it takes to get rid of Obama’s “enemies”.)
And now we get the lecture about Fuller and the first amendment and how Fuller’s words are okay...
“This whole event is a good one for the mythbusters television show. The myth is that Sarah Palin, Rush, Sean, Foxnews, and others cause conservatives to go crazy and attack democRATS.
Now for the experiment. The result was that Sarah, Rush et al had nothing to do with the actual shooting. Instead we have an insane person with no discernable understanding of conservative opinions who actually goes crazy. DemocRAT television spends one week pushing the now famous myth. Inspired by this event and democRAT television, a moonbat democRAT also goes crazy and threatens a tea party citizen with death.
MYTH BUSTED.”
Perfectly stated, Sam Clements! Bingo!
Great post; great thread. The leftist lunatics will self destruct. Stay the course. Mocking them is good. Thanks to all mockers. :)
By the way, I have a brother in law who was in Vietnam. He was through so pretty horrific things. He would never do such a thing. He's a good family man, good father and goes to mass just about everyday. Also a conservative.
My Uncle was in WWII, his platoon was caught in a fox hole for a week, most of his platoon was killed. Although he had some issues, he still worked full time until he couldn't anymore and basically functioned fine. Never violent, never said crazy things.
He has no good excuse to attack someone who had nothing to do with this what so ever, and he doesn't even know. That's sick.
"Toward the end of the town hall meeting Saturday morning, one of the shooting victims, J. Eric Fuller, took exception to comments by two of the speakers: Ariz. state Rep. Terri Proud, a Dist. 26 Republican, and Tucson Tea Party spokesman Trent Humphries.
According to sheriff’s deputies at the scene, Fuller took a photo of Humphries and said, “You’re Dead.”
Deputies immediately escorted Fuller from the room."
They won't say what the comments were, ... anyone heard?
Okay, now that is funny. Thanks for the hearty laugh!
Do keep in mind the left has it tougher than us.
We don’t have to make this stuff up!!
Oh the poor man had post traumatic stress syndrome and the right pushed him over the edge. Just like they did to Jared.
Memo, from lefties to lefties:
“Please refrain from being yourselves, at least until we gain better control of the truth”
My brother in law probably does to. I don’t know that for a fact but, he was in Vietnam and did see some pretty horrific things. He would also never do such a thing.
I’ve walked lots of miles in those shoes.
It’s not a term to be used lightly or frivolously.
The vast majority of PTSD sufferers tend to have a surplus of empathy and compassion for *life* and all living things.
They would *never* use their affliction as a pathetic excuse for being a violent, murder-minded jackass.
[I’ll hop off my soapbox now, even though I *do* enjoy being temporarily taller]...:)
