There’s a whole lot of Baracknophobia going on when it comes to some folks’ worries about health care reform, but how much of it is based on valid concern and how much is, well, stoked by certain media figures hoping to create a flurry of good ol’ American pseudo-events? In other words, turn off the Glenn Beck, people.

Differences?
The Left’s accusations have been vindicated by facts.
Corps were ripping US off.
W & Cheney Corp were committing High crimes.
Religious fanatics are trying to resurrect a Theocracy.
and The NRA is filled with Cold Blood Killers.

The Left are not typically ‘Armed & Dangerous’
The guy who brought his gun to a Presidential Healthcare discussion is the epitome of why the Far Right Fringe present a Clear National security threat.
Claiming the event ‘would have been safer’ if everyone was armed is ludicrious…..Reason Historians refer to the time when that was the norm, as the ‘WILD West’. Not to mention everyone was carrying ‘heat’ during the ‘90’s Urban drug wars too- just like they are in Mexico now.
Yes ‘People kill people’... with Guns, particularly in assasination.
Last Radical Terrorist Lefty- Patty Hurst.
since then it has been Clinic/Fed Building/Olymic bombings, MD assasinations, Mass murder and suicides….All in the name of defeating the New World Order or Satan.
I see these psychotic townhallers much like those who call Market Street in SF ‘home’- Deluded apocalyptic soothsayers and dangerous paranoid schizophrenics.
I am more afraid of the White guy wearing camo clothes and a Crucifix behind me at McDonalds, then I am of any Turban wearing,cave dwelling, dialysis patient.
Over the last few decades,Who’s got the higher body count- Lefties or Righties?
