Death Threats Now?

The Republicans must be insane. They get their constituency all riled up, essentially foaming at the mouth and out for blood and then are surprised when people actually act on the rhetoric? Hello? What did you think would happen? Republican politicians tell the public that the Democrats and President Obama are responsible for all their ills, and will most likely cause the downfall of their entire country and then...what? Expect them to go on about their lives? Umm...no.

The fact that the Republicans are blaming the Democrats for the increase in death threats and hate speech is also completely bogus. That's like saying someone who was assaulted is responsible for it because they brought it to the attention of the police.

This all goes back to my previous wish for the Republicans to once again become acquainted with reality. Not their apparent Armageddon-is-soon-to-be-upon-us reality, but the reality that most of the rest of us live in.
