Yes, just like those nice gentlemen from the Black Panthers blocking, I mean, assisting votes in Philadephia

Someone said it in this thread, both sides have there nuts. If you read my original post, this is not scary crap. This is the same crap that happens when a Democratic President is elected. Nothing new at all.

Currently, the far right holds the most bigoted sections of our population. So when presented with the image of an individual with a different ancestry than their own it fuels the core of their fears.

This didn't happen in the last 3 democratic presidents because Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, and Lydon Johnson were all white southerners, which tends not to set off the *alarms* of most of the countries cores of bigotry. Obama is not a white southerner, so the fear, paranoia, and hate arises more vehemetly than in the previous 40 decades.
What did not happen with the last three democratic presidents?

' Acts of violence against abortion clinics and their employees have been carried out across the United States throughout the 1980s and 1990s.
There were 1,700 acts of violence against abortion providers between 1977 and 1994, with four people killed in 1994 and one in 1993, according to statistics from the National Abortion Federation. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms has logged 167 attacks against abortion clinics over the past 15 years.
In 1984, there were 18 bombings against abortion clinics. In 1993, there were 78 death threats aimed at clinic employees. And, in 1996, bombings, threats and harassment affected about one-third of U.S. abortion clinics.'


The OK City Fed Bldg was bombed during the Clinton Administration. This has nothing to do with Obama and being black. Nothing new here. The only difference is these media folks are now accessible by email such as Shepard Smith. So, of course it seems more than normal when it really has not changed at all over the years.

Last time we had a Democratic President a domestic terrorist carried out the worst ever terrorist attack on American soil (at the time). Yep, nothing to be scared about.

Please read my post on abortion clinics and attacks. It happens through out each presidency. Man Max, they way you talk you might as well stay home and close the blinds for the next 4 years. This is what terrorism is about...terror. It seems to be working on you.

Not at all, there are nuts on both side is the point. Does not matter if they are black or white. I failed to mention these two blocking the booths were targeting Republicans. For some reason everyone thinks these acts of craziness are new or something. They are not. This crap has gone on for years. With all the bickering between left and right both will take anything and run with it like it is golden. Really, media hype, mountain out of a mole hole, pot boils over hype. Nothing more.

In its obvious zeal to create a one-party state, the Democrat-Media Complex (the natural coalition of the Democratic Party and the mainstream media) last week seized upon the horrific murder of a security guard at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington as an opportunity to ascribe blame to the American conservative movement and to further marginalize the Republican Party.
In record time, the media's blind partisans and their feral friends in the left-wing blogosphere used the alleged "lone wolf" act of James W. von Brunn - an 88-year old self-avowed racist and anti-Semite - to try to affirm the controversial Department of Homeland Security (DHS) report that posited " right-wing extremists have capitalized on the election of the first African American president" and are a becoming a growing domestic terror threat.
Quote:

While Mr. von Brunn is currently being made out to be the poster child of the Republican Party, even a cursory look at his professed views shows he is the avowed enemy of the GOP in its current incarnation. Among many others, Mr. von Brunn hates Rupert Murdoch, Fox News (that means you, too, Shep!), George W. Bush and John McCain. And according to the FBI, Mr. von Brunn even had in his vehicle the address of the Weekly Standard, home base of the dreaded "neo-cons."

The Republican Party is NOT the problem. The Republican Party and mainstream conservatives are the SOLUTION. That's what I've been trying to say all along! That's why I posted this here, a place frequented by a lot of sensible conservative people!

Us liberals can't fix the problem. Obama can't fix this problem. The ones who CAN fix this problem are sensible conservatives with BALLS. McCain showed us that he was one of them during the campaign, when he stood up in front of his supporters and defended Obama against accusations that he was a Muslim Arab (not that McCain's balls were ever in doubt). Shepard Smith also showed us that he had balls when he called out the far right on Fox News. We need more people like them.

All extreme righty understands is his rights and guns are being taken away. Sorry to say the Republicans/Conservatives are all grouped into 'the right'. Extreme or not does not matter. These extemists people simply refuse to listen.

The argument here is the way right are going nuts and carrying on with hateful acts because of Obama. Sorry to say this behavior has gone on for over 30 years. It does not matter Obama is in the White House. Abortion clinics are bombed, abortion doctors are killed, Ok City Fed Bldg destroyed under Democratic Presidents who were white. Truly, Obama has nothing to do with this. This type of behavior becomes more prominent when a Democratic President is elected. Nothing more. It is the media and DHS making a mountain out of a mole hill. It is the DHS saying returning vets are going to go crazy and start shooting up the place. It is sensationalism for ratings and a poke at the right.

With the exception that the right wing pretty much is the establishment and decides what the mainstream media runs with.

Please provide some sort of proof. Obama has the media in his hip pocket. In fact, he get free run of ABC or one of them to run another infomercial on his health care proposal. That is laughable the right wing decides what mainstream media runs.

Obama TV all the time

Start with this. Yes, it's Wikipedia but it gives an idea about the forces behind mainstream media in the US and around the world.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concent...edia_ownership

The media block-out concerning the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan plus the media embedding program is still continuing. Remind me again what exactly you think has changed under Obama and remember that I'm not really interested in what US political pundits have said. I'm just interested in the body count.
