    I gave you my thoughts in the post that you are ignoring.

    The "rage" is on both sides over many issues - not just the size of government.

    As I already listed for you...

    The national debt
    Deficit spending
    Illegal immigration
    Corporate bailouts
    Mortgage defaults
    Etc.

    BTW - You brought up the topic... all of this including the observation that the "rage" goes "beyond the Right" is in the very article that you cited in your OP.

    Did you actually read the entire article?

    Based on your responses it doesn't seem to be the case.

    The SPLC is only a "Southern Center". They know nothing of "Law" or "Poverty". When I saw the article my first reaction was to laugh heartily.

    By whom??? I heard the guy from that organization on yesterday's "Fresh Air", and if I could find a way to spread what he's full of on my crops, I'd be a rich man.

    It was just one lie after another and that idiot, Terri Gross, just lapped it up.

    Well, our objections must have hit the spot...Crabby's silent, and has abandoned this thread.

    Nothing like the good ol' "post and run." Emphasis on the "run."

    The government is about the right size but the distribution of funds is wrong. Pull the troops home. Give 25% of the savings to the Border Patrol and the rest to medicare and SS.

    If I am a Communist then your must be a fascist. Frankly, I doubt you have any real idea of what a real Communist believes. I doubt you have ever read Marx or Engels and so you are simply parroting what you have heard others say without thinking or without knowledge. If a real Communist posted here you would see I would disagree with them as much as I do with your far out anti-people positions.

    When you know you are wrong you try to insult. Typical of the frantic, wild-eyed right. You have no logical, rational argument so you try to insult. I find it very amusing.

    I doubt that, but perhaps you could answer a few questions for me.....

    What do you consider Fidel Castro ? What kind of government does he rule over ? What is your opinion of Cuba's human rights record over the last 50 years ? How does it make you feel when Fidel Castro says Obama's health care plan is a step in the right direction ?

    Pretend Communist.

    A dictatorship

    Lousy, very lousy.

    He can say what he likes, just as you and I can. It means nothing. It does not make me feel one way or the other. Castro is a fading thug and is irrelevant as far as I am concerned.

    What are your answers to your questions?

    It makes me weep tears of sorrowful grief for any leader of ours to recieve his praise.

    Looks like at least one of those militia members voted democrat in the last primaries......the rest have ambiguous records, but most have never voted....


    Jacob J. Ward, 33, of Huron, Ohio, voted as a Democrat in the 2004 and 2008 primary elections. He also voted in 10 other elections since 2000. Party affiliation in Ohio is determined by which party's ballot they requested in the most recent primary election.

    Alleged ringleader David Brian Stone, Sr., 45, of Clayton, Mich., registered in Lenawee County, Michigan, in 1998, and last voted in the 2004 general election.

    His, and other Michigan voters' party affiliations, if any, are not public records because of Michigan's open primary elections, officials said.

    Mr. Stone's son, David Brian Stone, Jr., 19, of Adrian, Mich., registered to vote in April, 2009.

    David Stone, Sr.'s wife, Tina Mae Stone, 44, of Clayton, Mich., registered Dec. 29, 2009. A clerk in the Lenawee County clerk's office said records show that Ms. Stone was previously registered and most recently voted in 2008.
    Mr. Stone's other son, Joshua Matthew Stone, 21, of Clayton, Mich., also registered to vote in December, 2009. There is no record of him having voted.

    Kristopher T. Sickles, 27, of Sandusky, registered to vote in 2007 but has not voted, according to the Erie County Board of Elections.

    Joshua John Clough, 28, of Blissfield, Mich., registered in 2000 and voted in both the primary and general elections of 2008, and in a February, 2010, election.

    Michael David Meeks, 40, of Manchester, Mich., registered in 1989, and voted in both the primary and general elections of 2008, according to the Washtenaw County Clerk's Office.

    The only one of the accused anti-government extremists with no record of registering to vote is Thomas William Piatek, 46, of Whiting, Ind.

    I'm still waiting for the originator of this thread to acknowledge that the article that he cites in the OP actually states that the "rage" goes beyond the Right - meaning of course the "rage" also comes from the Left and the Center.

    But such honesty from that particular poster is probably asking for more than one has come to expect.

    Here is the quote you are so shrill about:

    When has there not been anger from both far sides of the political spectrum. But, currently it seems the right is far more radical and violent than the right. When was the last time you saw someone write or heard someone say, "I am outraged that the government is not bigger?

    Your feeble whining makes no point.

    By the way, I asked you the same question earlier, but no reply.

    You have to spin to blame the right. It is not supported by facts. And I did answer you. Perhaps you missed it.

    And what exactly, is "shrill" about anything I have posted here ?

    You aren't only mean, you twist the truth to fit you and say things that are not true. It just proves that ignorance is not bliss.

    Yes, I did answer - twice but I'll do it again - or you can just read the article that you linked in the OP.

    Government being bigger is not the only issue that people are upset about.

    Here is a short list of things that people on the Right, Left and Center can all be upset about:

    Unemployment
    Deficit spending
    National debt
    Band bailouts and executive bonuses
    Gitmo
    Terrorist trials
    Etc.

    Where did I twist anything ? And ignprance is not bliss ? What does that even mean ?

    If asking someone for honesty in posting is mean, no wonder you hate everyone. Same for C.T.Boy.
