TOWN HALL MEETINGS ~ TEA PARTIES ~ RALLYS - UPCOMING EVENTS

Of the people, by the people and for the people.  We are the people.  Thank you for your service Bob.  Your service to OUR Country.

Gail - you are correct.  The more I see some of these radicals posting out here on political subjects the more concerned I become about the future of our country. 

Scott, No I was not indicating "radicals" to be those with criminal intent.  I was referring to those who name call and try to verbally bludgeon anyone who does not agree with the current administrations policies.  Instead of intelligent debate on the entire issue they draw one line from the post and set about making a federal case for why it is not correct.  They label the poster a fear monger.

I've noticed at least one of these people deliberately posts provocative subject matter.  They ridicule anyone who tells them it is offensive or disagrees with them.  When the posts get too heated and they are unable to justify their position they end the comments on the blog and will not allow further dialog.

Scott, I don't need to wait and see. I've encountered them on every post I make that is political in nature.  I was even reported to the White House by one.  Horrifying they may be procreating more of the same.

On your other comment, I do not endorse criminal solutions to political problems.  At least not what we are discussing here or the extreme actions some are supporting.

We have a legal check and balance system that should work.  We have the ability to Impeach elected officials if the weight of evidence justifies it.  If any highly placed elected official is doing such a poor job that it adversely impacts the well being of the country as a whole they should be impeached.

Greg- I intend to be at the one in Washington. 

Terry, 25 more points for you, but absolutely no substance.

Terry - Politicians receiving death threats is nothing new.  Disturbed people have tried to assassinate those whose ideals they disagreed with like George Wallace.  It's part of the territory.  If it was not health care it would be something else.

One unsubstaintiated phone call is NOT proof of anything.  The police have not confirmed it.

Terry you make an epidemic out of a sneeze.

Bob, These zealots who follow the Pied Piper act like a pack of wild dogs.  They will say anything and make any aspersions to devalue our expression of free speech. The entire episode of an alleged death threat is unsubstantiated. 

I am a registered Democrat.  Over the years my faith in our elected officials began to diminish.  The rise out of no where of this President has troubled me.  Too many shady characters and associations. Too reminiscent of "Captains and Kings." 

In years past I would turn off talk radio and get mad as hell when they bashed Bill Clinton.  Since the first Bush election I began listening to both sides more carefully. I do listen to Fox News.  I can hear both sides represented and weigh the platforms issue by issue.  I am certainly not ashamed that I admire Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity and Glen Beck.

I had hoped for a Democratic president who would move us forward safely and with prosperity.  I greatly admired John Kennedy.  I was disheartened when the current Kennedy clan jumped on the band wagon for Obama.  Party unity is one thing.  Playing politics at the expense of the American way of life is something else.

As a Democrat I felt Hilary was experienced and ready to lead.  When I saw how the media trashed her every comment and gave pass after pass to Obama I knew we were doomed. I have never witnessed such biased reporting before, or at least it was never so evident.
