Perhaps with the exception of the years shortly before the Civil War, this is easily the most extreme group of people that have ever ran for Congress. They're motivated, they're angry, and they're brainwashed, and that's a disaster waiting to happen. Sharron Angle and Ken Buck would force you to have your rapist's baby. Or your father's baby. Sharron Angle thinks that if Republicans don't win, we should start shooting Democrats. Stephen Broden believes violent revolution is "on the table" if Democracy doesn't achieve the results he wants. Rich Iott thinks dressing up like a Nazi is all in good fun. The Tea Party is going around suppressing the votes of minorities and the poor. Ken Buck "disagree[s] strongly with the separation of church and state," better known as the first amendment of the Constitution. Last night at a Rand Paul rally, a Moveon.org reporter got thrown to the ground and her head stomped on. She has a concussion.
But hey, who can blame that honest American when the Tea Party is writing propaganda about how liberalism is literally the "antithesis of freedom," and how "we must destroy" it? Click to read it.
Republican ads are exploiting the inherent racism of its supporters.
Isolated incidents stop being isolated incidents when they happen nonstop for a year and a half. I don't know what else we can do. If this is what America wants, and if this is who we vote into office, then we deserve everything that's coming to us. If Americans support a party that ridicules everyone who disagrees with them to the point that they're no longer human, and if they want a party who uses violence and intimidation to accomplish it's goals, then America wants a fascist nation. And honest to god, I wish I was exaggerating, but the 2010 Tea Party is the very definition of fascism.
