Summary of Current Events: Tea Party Terrorism Edition
The frustration of the Teabaggers has exploded into violence. Their Republican majority in the House has produced nothing. “Repeal Health Care” has faded to “debate and amend". Nancy Pelosi still champions the Left and the list of lies their candidates told them grows longer by the day.
Their electoral victories have yet to prove significant.
Now, like genuine Al-Qaida cowards they lash out at the innocent and defenseless.
1) Gabrielle Giffords May Leave Hospital For Home:
At least that’s what’s being reported and we sincerely hope that to be the case.
The Tea Party failed again. The intended victim lived.
They did manage to murder a nine year old girl and I’m confident they’re at least pleased with that result. Little Marxist must have deserved it, eh? 
Rot in Hell where you belong, filthy pigs.
2) Spokane Terror Attack Foiled:
Police in Spokane, WA are trying to find out which Right Wing Terrorist planted an IED along the MLK Parade route. Authorities are confident, and it is most obvious, that this is a domestic terrorist plot aimed at Blacks, Liberals or both.
The IED, packed in a backpack and designed like a Claymore mine to project shrapnel in a specific direction, was left on a bench and directed toward the parade participants…
(CNN) – A backpack containing a potentially deadly device capable of inflicting “multiple casualties” was found in Spokane, Washington, along the route of a Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. parade, the FBI said Tuesday.
The device was discovered Monday morning by three parade workers before the event, FBI supervisory agent Frank Harrill told CNN. The city’s explosives disposal unit neutralized the device.
The gray backpack was placed on a bench at the northeast corner of North Washington Street and West Main Avenue in downtown Spokane, the FBI said in a statement.
Agents have leads in the case, but Harrill would not provide details on the device and the investigation, which includes a $20,000 reward for the arrest and conviction of those responsible.
Now, let’s see…who would want to bomb a Martin Luther King day parade? “Marxists"? Don’t think so. I can’t wait to hear from the Right Wing as to how this is “not political” and “the act of one lone wacko".
Can’t wait to hear Teabaggers talk about how they’re “not racists".
Sorry, Teabaggers. No deaths for you to celebrate. Some concerned and heroic Americans put a stop to your murderous plans.
3) Oh, yes. A Teabagger he be:
In an effort to try and be a part of quelling Left-Right tensions, many moderates are embracing the lie that Jared Laughner “had no political motive". That he was “just crazy"….
If only it were so simple.
The truth is as clear as the sky above Tuscon. No amount of diversion or denial or transference will change the reality of this situation.
Our friend and world class analyst at the Washington post, Chris Cillizza, recently fell into this trap and as much respect as I have for Chris, I really have to call him on this.
His article was stopped at 88 comments so I’ll address it here…
Chris suggested that…
In the aftermath of the Jan. 8 shootings, many on the left unfairly blamed Palin for somehow inciting the gunman. (The details that have emerged since last Saturday suggest that the suspect, Jared Loughner, was deeply troubled and without any coherent political philosophy.)
Loughner was a registered Independent voter. That in it’s self indicates political participation. Factually, over 50% of Independent voters identify with the Tea Party. Loughner’s Youtube channel made it clear that he whined about “taxation without representation” and “backing the dollar with gold” and “wanting to destroy gov’t". All primary aspects of Tea Party ideology.
Naturally, there’s the fact that he tried to assassinate a politician. I’m sorry, but that kinda gives his political presence away. No?
And given the fact that he attempted to assassinate a Democratic politician, I think it clear what side he aligns with.
Were he not Right Wing, he would have shot down Jon Kyle, or some other Teabagger type.
No, Laughner’s political leanings, though perhaps not as clear as mine or yours, were very much present and he did act upon them.
He knew exactly what he was doing and who he was doing it to. And I think it important to point out that mental illness of any kind does not preclude anyone from espousing political beliefs.
Did John Wilkes-Booth have political views? Was he insane? Can a sane man commit cold blooded murder?
Sirhan Bishara Sirhan. Insane? If so, why is he serving a life sentence?
These people were political extremists. The Teabaggers are political extremists. That is an undeniable fact. Laughner is no different.
I don’t want to hear about rough childhoods. I had one too. I’ve killed no one.
I truly believe that Chris Cillizza is a fine man and one of the best analysts on the net, but this time he is wrong. I understand the desire to diffuse tensions, but not at the expense of reality.
The Tea Party, and Right-Wing media mouthpieces, promote and incite weak minds into acts of Terrorism. We see the same with Al-Qaida as they manage to persuade the intellectually challenged into blowing themselves up along with others, so there is no question that a weak, uneducated mind is easily influenced to commit acts of violence by those who know how to manipulate them.
4) Tennessee Teabagger Racists want facts removed from American History books:
LOL,
Ya know…the founding fathers were great men. They were visionaries and we owe our civilization to their intellect and courage. But the truth is the truth. There are only two ways to acquire land, by purchase or by conquest. We took this land by conquest, the least we could do is treat those we defeated with some respect for who they are and the incredible fight they put up in defense. We have not done so and that is disgraceful.
The conquest it self may also be disgraceful. But that’s the way it was done in those days and no one alive today is responsible for it.
Same with slavery. A diabolical practice regardless of chronological placement. Slavery is and always has been an abomination. Whether it was white men enslaving black men, black men enslaving white men or Egyptians enslaving Hebrews- wrong. But no one today is responsible for it. Things are as they are.
Our forefathers are humans. Guilty of both heroism and debauchery. Both traits are depicted in history’s books and now, Teabaggers want to erase the bad aspects so they can be more successful in brainwashing their kid and ours….

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Some members of the Tennessee Tea Party want to change the way history is taught in schools.
Several members met with state lawmakers and according to the Memphis Commercial Appeal they want to address: “an awful lot of made-up criticism about, for instance, the founders intruding on the indians or having slaves or being hypocrites in one way or another.”
It goes on to say “… The things we need to focus on about the founders is that, given the social structure of their time, they were revolutionaries who brought liberty into a world where it hadn’t existed.
“A lot of textbooks teach the founding fathers were mean vicious guys who took over a country,” said Judson Phillipps, a Tea Party member.
Phillipps was not among those who met with lawmakers and does not entirely agree with their proposal for change.
“In the Tennessee curriculum, you couldn’t say anything negative about the founding fathers and that’s just nuts,” said Phillipps.
State Representative Brenda Gilmore agrees.
“I think our young people deserve to know the blemishes in our history. As well as the things we celebrate,” said Gilmore.
This prime example of catastrophic Teabagger FAIL teaches us a number of things. The Tea Party is a disgrace not only to America, with their racism and deranged terrorists, but also to the state of Tennessee and our people. There is a reason that only one Tea Party candidate won an election in Tennessee, we’re not quite as stupid as the Yankee likes to believe. We’re not stupid enough to go along with this load of horse shit either.
This is pure, nonsensical, racist lunacy bordering on blasphemy. The thing I love about facts is that God almighty created every last one of them. To say that God’s facts should be omitted from our cultural education system is simply spiritual sedition. Stupidity equaled only by instances such as burglars leaving their IDs at the scene of the crime and people smoking crack.
We, as Tennesseans, should drive these sociopaths from our state, by force if need be, like we did the KKK years ago. Lord knows they’re just as vile and expendable.
5) James Eric Fuller:
The Vietnam Vet who was a surviving victim of Teabagger assassin Jared Laughner was himself arrested for a threatening outburst against a piece of Tea Party shit who made it clear that his guns were more important than the lives of the deceased and injured.
Fuller, who was shot twice by Laughner, shouted “you’re dead” at the pig….
From The Washington Post:

Washington Post Staff Writer
Sunday, January 16, 2011TUCSON - Arizona shooting victim James Eric Fuller was arrested Saturday and taken for a psychiatric evaluation after allegedly photographing a local tea party leader at a forum organized by ABC and yelling: “You’re dead.”
According to news reports, Fuller became upset when Trent Humphries, an audience member at an event, suggested that conversations about gun control be delayed until those killed in the shooting are buried.
An officer tried to escort Fuller out, and deputies decided he needed to be examined by a psychiatrist. Fuller was involuntarily committed for a minimum of 72 hours. He is expected to be charged with misdemeanor disorderly conduct and threatening.
The forum - taped for a special edition of “This Week” with Christiane Amanpour - reunited victims, witnesses and emergency responders to discuss the shooting.
Fuller, 63, was shot twice in the attack that critically wounded Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.).
Eric….I fucking feel you, bro’. But remember that retaliation would allow the Right to evade scrutiny over this assassination attempt. Don’t let them turn the page.
Retaliation is not an option at this time. I love and respect you, but keep your cool.
God help us….
