Punished dissent. (Idiotic IRS decisions don’t count).”

Why in the world doesn’t an example such as the IRS not count? Not only were organizations that had language opposing Obama denied 501c3 approval, there are many instances where individuals or businesses have been targeted for harrassment from the IRS—think Billy Graham (recently) and Gibson Guitars.

“Imprisoned opponents.”

The Hutaree group?

“’Controlled media. (Our media isn’t controlled, it supports Obama willingly.)’”

I believe that a majority in the media are supportive of Obama. But, I also believe that those in the media who would have most likely reported the “truth” about what is going on have been threatened. Also, let’s not forget that the Justice Department subpaeoned AP records and tapped journolist phone lines. In addition, it is well know that the media is “controlled” (although willingly) by disseminating the Administration talking points.

“They harass, threaten, and banish organizations that defend your right to self-governance. (IRS bit applies here, but denial of tax-exempt status isn’t really banning.)”

No...organizations aren’t banned, they are just harrassed to the point of non-existence, or not given the abiity to organize at all (IRS DOES apply here.)

“Rampant corruption in your courts and your economy (Fair enough, but the court bit, like the media “control” is self-imposed, not forced on them.)”

“Terrorize and even assassinate journalists who try to expose their corruption.”

BREITBART

I want to apologize in advance for the formatting of this post. I am on my Ipad, and I’m not familliar with formatting as I am on my computer. I’m really sorry, but I wanted to reply to your post to at least make sure that I could identify some of the reasons that I likened McCain’s accusations of the Russion government to our own.

The Hutaree group

They provide a great example of how angry the American people are with government. After his acquittal, Hutaree leader David Stone was elected unopposed as constable in his hometown.

I think Breitbart’s death was one of the greatest tragedies of recent years for the conservative movement and America, but I’ve seen nothing but speculation that would indicate assassination.

To be sure, I have little doubt that spy agencies have the ability to do clandestine killings, and that Obama’s political types would have no reluctance to do so.

OTOH, he was the personality and physical type exactly prone to what killed him. My Dad also had the enlarged heart thing, and that’s not something that can be induced quickly. It develops over a long period. He had reportedly also had a serious heart attack some months earlier.

I do not believe local coroners and others would cover up cause of death. Suspicion is not evidence.
