America is now living through a very tumultuous, confrontational time, and the Tea Party Movement is responsible for much of this turmoil!
Their vehemence against ObamaCare; their desire to destroy the safety net that has developed under the New Deal and Great Society; their rhetoric which promotes hate and fear; their campaign to promote hysteria that America is becoming a left wing dictatorship under President Obama; their willingness to destroy the two party system and undermine Republican Party stability in the name of eliminating RINOS (Republicans In Name Only); their lack of concern about the damage to the world economy caused by the possibility of a debt ceiling being breached; and their ignoring of the suffering many Americans are experiencing with the government shutdown ending its second week, is an alarm bell in the night, warning of tragedy ahead!
For extremists of the right, the elimination of President Obama from office is their goal, and all decent Americans must worry about his personal safety and security, as the number of death threats are so numerous, that it has set a record for any President of the United States, probably unsurpassed except by Abraham Lincoln! And we know the end result of the 10,000 or more death threats against our 16th President!
This is a time to pray, to remain calm, and to hope that our Secret Service and other government agencies are equipped to protect our 44th President, and allow him to contribute to the betterment of the nation, and have a dignified retirement life after January 20, 2017!
Professor,
I would ask you to recall when the Teabaggers rampaged in several cities breaking windows of different government buildings when the Affordable Health Care Act was pasded.
At that time I posted an article comparing this violent act to the ledgary Cristal Night in the fortelling Nazi Party’s take over.
Yes, the Tea Party has shown its capacity for violence, and the threat of violence, very terrifying and worrisome!
