1. I'm still waiting...
...to see a Secret Service guy run on stage during Glenn Beck's show and slap a piece of duct tape over The Insane One's mouth. That step alone would lessen the threats 25%...

4. Yes Yes Yes - A thousand times Yes! Why haven't they done something after Friday's idiocy?
I cannot believe what he and Limbaugh get away with! Why? Free speech is one thing, outright calls for a riot is another!

10. murdoch's station promotes violence - the men & women who push for violence as direct as Bleck has
called for need to be arrested, then fired by Faux Noise Channel. If they don't fire them, the FCC should impose a ten million dollar fine for each instance of a call for violence.

15. Yes, Indeed!

He ( along with O'Reilly and Limbaugh) is largely responsible for stirring up the Rabid Repugs.

"Freedom of speech" does not include
threats to President Obama's safety.

Why aren't they all over this guy?

7. This is little more than drumming up fear.....
Edited on Mon Oct-26-09 08:10 PM by Grassy Knoll
We don't have the actual numbers, I'm sure they are high, but these reports aren't coming from the secret service,( it's a secret )
but rather from news reporters with an agenda.
When it comes to protecting the President of the United States , you can believe there is no such budget.

8. Method to their madness is
the fact that if something happens to Obama they think they might have to chance to get back in the white house. They know as well as anybody their sorry butts don't have a snowballs chance otherwise.

And while we are at it and all the conspiracy theories. Today I watched the History Channel and saw the mystery still surrounding JFK's assassination. I would not put it pass the republicans to have had a hand in it. It is so funny that Governor Connelly of Texas jumped the democrat ship so soon and went republican. And I remember the secret service locking up Connelly's wife in a motel with guards for a week or two because she said she had news to tell. She soon after died of cancer.

9. Stop the problem at the source, it's more about greater awareness at what Faux really is....
Edited on Mon Oct-26-09 11:15 PM by ProgressOnTheMove
What we need is every celebrity with enough courage to come out and speak against Faux in what a destructive force it is to the nation. Whether folks be rich or poor, or in the middle. It could be any President up there from any other party than Republican they are out to destroy the nation it's that basic. It's not really personal to Pres. Obama it's a force to destroy everything. If it takes going to the streets everyday with protest against the channel so be it but they are not healthy for Republicans that watch or anyone else in the watching. Media can call it attack on them as collective if they wish but had Faux not been in existence many people will still be alive today that simple. Through health care through war and through victims of deregulated corporations. There are things everybody may disagree with Pres. Obama on but there is no logical way his security would be under pressure if they did not exist, spreading out with their wild eyed made up conspiracy theories. If for one moment they could understand the wrath they unleash the next day they'd all resign their jobs in shame and guilt.

11. Sobering situtation.
Seems clear there's more sentiment for this president's assassination, than any since Lincoln.

14. well then... everyone should join together in solidarity to Shun the Right Wing
they have no business being in politics, since they obviously can't handle disagreements with just about everyone. If anything happens to this President, there will be hell to pay.

17. Shun the Right Wing? YOU PURIST!!!!

Best we don't interrupt their important work guzzling the flow of cash to subvert you "purists"!

I have a lot of trouble understanding Congressional Democrats these days. I think it's the GIANT FUCKING CORPORATE COCK STUFFED IN THE MOUTHS.

How 'bout that Public Option huh! Wow! We really stood tall what with our majorities and all didn't we?

19. I agree with you.
Sadly, there aren't enough Kucinichs and Graysons to start a turnaround. As long as campaign finance continues status quo, we can all follow Limbaugh's suggestion of grabbing our ankles.

The next guy will end up saying we should look ahead ... move on.

22. It sounds like that guy outside the Obama townhall with the pistol in the drop-leg holster...
...should be a Democrat like yours truly, working in concert with local law enforcement and the Secret Service, and even wearing a peace officer badge if that's what it takes.

This present state of affairs is truly shameful. I may disagree with Obama on some stuff, but he does not deserve anywhere near this much vitriol and hatred.

23. If one believed the claims
by Limbaugh, Beck and their ilk, they would feel justified in taking President Obama's life.

I mean, according to these RW propagandists, President Obama is out to harm the nation-intentionally harm the nation. The reason President Obama wants to do this is because he hates America and white people. He is also a communist, socialist, NAZI, terrorist, Muslim, an anti-gun zealot and citizen of some other country bent on destroying America.

If there is an attempt on President Obama's life it would come as no surprise.

26. It's not just the rigtwing media's fault. It is also the so called mainstream press's
fault for not pointing it out. Thanks for this and again, congratulations.

27. The only way to stop this extremism is to prosecute them every time they break our laws
We will not have respect for our laws unless our officials are willing to do their jobs and prosecute the offenders. That includes the members of the Bush-Cheney Administration that were involved in the
Conspiracy To Torture.

SIGN the PETITION
calling for Prosecution

29. Here's a great article by them with a lot of evidence that destroys their claim to be legit
As well as the videos they have a lot of really well researched articles on their site. This is one of the latest ones that's well worth checking out. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=103x491770">30 reasons why Fox News is not legit
