“Breaking out the windows of people you don’t like – does that sound familiar in history to any of you?”

For all you paranoid right-wingers, anti-government and tea-baggy types with a martyr complex who fell for that Right-wing extemist assessment gag and are curious as to when the DHS memo from that wacky broad, Janet Napolitano will be issued warning of the rise of “left-wing extremists”, don’t hold your breath. Why? Because it’s un-needed as the “rise” has arrived – in fact it’s been around for years.

CHAPEL HILL -- UNC-CH police released pepper spray and threatened to use a Taser on student protesters Tuesday evening when a crowd disrupted a speech by former Colorado congressman Tom Tancredo opposing in-state tuition benefits to unauthorized immigrants.
Hundreds of protesters converged on Bingham Hall, shouting profanities and accusations of racism while Tancredo and the student who introduced him tried to speak. Minutes into the speech, a protester pounded a window of the classroom until the glass shattered, prompting Tancredo to flee and campus police to shut down the event.

And as Legal Insurrection notes:

When fascism comes to America, it will not be wrapped in the flag or carrying a cross. It will look like it always has looked: Ugly and intolerant.


Video of the whole sad affair can be found at L.I. link above.

We’ll try not to engage in any excessive schadenfreude but in light of the release of that “assessment” and the coinciding tea parties, this could not have happened at a more appropriate time.

I watched fun w/ Janet as the Fox & Friends morning crew pressed her. She was clearly uncomfortable but did a nice dance as she cited Tim McVeigh as an example of a veteran right wing extremist.

You mean the same Tim McVeigh that was consorting with Al Qaeda members in the Phillipines?

Tea parties - peaceful.
Left wing protests against border security - violent.
Who's more fascist? You make the call.

It's just to easy to figure what The Waco Kid would have had to say to Barack HUSSEIN Obama for the summary rejection by the neo-cons of the Obama Administration 10 weeks into it...

What did you expect? 'Welcome, sonny?' 'Make yourself at home.' 'Marry my daughter.' You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the New West.

You know - morons.
