Tea Partier Says She Wants to Hang Sitting U.S. Senator
So this right wingnut, Tea Partier essentially said that she wants to hang sitting Washington State U.S. Senator Patty Murray. I'm a big fan of protected free speech. But, I'm also as big an opponent of unprotected speech that advocates violence. Can you say terroristic threat? You cannot go around threatening violence, period, much less violence against a sitting U.S. Senator. So the this Tea Partier's mantra is, "you're either with me or I'm going to kill you?"
Please, let Tea Partiers continue to speak. And let GOP'ers continue to try to woo Tea Partiers. That should help the GOP'ers reach out to all those independent voters.

"Chris Brown Outraged That Stores Are Not Carrying His New Album"*
So, what's Chris Brown going to do about it? Assault and batter Walmart?
*Quote from an EW.com article about same.
Don't forget why some stores might consider boycotting Brown's newest album.
And yes, this is one of those Non-Political Thoughts Now (NPTN's).

Coup de Dumb...
I came up with the above after reading about this awful, and I think treasonous, editorial...
Side note: Here's the full column. Newsmax, who originally posted the editorial, has pulled it down.

Census Worker Killed
Have you seen this story covered on CNN or ABC or CBS or NBC?
A part-time federal census worker was apparently hanged to death in Kentucky with the word, "Fed," scrawled across his chest. So much for the liberal media bias. I don't have many thoughts about this other than this story is scary and so much for the liberal media bias, at least in reference to this story, because I haven't heard or read much about this anywhere. You tell me. Was I out of the loop? Has this gotten the coverage it deserves?
And again, Rep. Cantor may have been wrong about what he said...

Unfortunately, Cantor Was Wrong...
...kinda, maybe...
In an interview reported on 9/23 Rep. Cantor said that Speaker Pelosi was, "in another world," because she
feared violence in this politically hyperbolic atmosphere. He essentially said it was a misguided fear and wouldn't happen. Then, about 24 hours later a census worker was found dead, hanging from a tree with the work, "Fed," scrawled across his chest in Kentucky. Did the fear-mongering of some on the right cause it? Who's to say. But, violence and death did occur and apparently the violence was motivated by a dislike of the federal government and know one can say if there was "cause and effect" or just coincidence. But, quick question: what party's wingnuts is it again that's been demonizing the federal government, declaring it essentially the source of all evil? Maybe Rep. Cantor wants a re-do on his interview.
