    Basso, every time I think it impossible for you to be more idiotic, more insulting, less intelligent, a bigger fool and, most important here, a waste of my ****ing time, you surprise me.

    Adios.

    I guess the dumb **** still doesn't understand the difference between healthy dissent and threatening the president's life and nation.

    Curious, I did a google search to understand what exactly basso is talking about.

    http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0410/35916.html

    Re Bill Clinton's comments:

    [rquoter]
    Speaking on the anniversary of one of the most traumatic domestic events of his presidency during an event at the Center for American Progress, Clinton judged the “fever” of anti-government sentiment in the mid-1990s to be similar in some respects to the current political environment.

    Making comparisons between the two times is “a legitimate thing to do, but I think it’s important to draw the contrast between what happened then and what’s happening to America,” Clinton said.

    Like today, the former president pointed out, many Americans were out of work and trying to figure out “where they fit in.”

    “Before the bombing occurred, there was a sort of fever,” Clinton recalled. “The fabric of American life had been unraveling. There was a lot of violence in our cities —– gang violence in particular.”

    “The structure of the Cold War — the clear bipolar world — was coming to an end ... there was no bipolar world anymore, just a lot of fist fights around the world,” he continued. “There were more and more people having trouble figuring out where they fit nit ... it is true that we see some of that today.”

    The current climate in Washington, Clinton warned, is building the same kind of anger that bubbled up prior to the Oklahoma City attack — though he firmly declared that the energy that built the tea party movement does not have to lead to violence.

    “This tea party movement can be a healthy thing if they are making us justify every dollar of taxes we raise and every dollar of money we’ve spent,” he said. “But when you get mad, sometimes you end up producing the exact opposite result of what you say you are for.”

    “What we learned from Oklahoma City is not that we should gag each other or that we should hold less passion for the positions we hold, but that our words really do matter. There is this vast echo chamber, and the words fall on the serious and delirious alike,” the former president warned. “Have at it. Go fight. Do whatever you want. You don’t have to be nice. But be careful with what you say and do not advocate violence.
    [/rquoter]

    basso, please point out where Bill Clinton said that the Tea Party movement is seditious. And then, once you've done that, also show where Obama said this, as you claimed he did so as well in your original post.

    It's a facebook page with over 800,000 members praying for the death of our President. You must be so proud. Of course, they're too much of a coward to come out and really say it.

    seriously?!?!?

    you're going to go with that?

    I can't want to see how you justify someone finally taking a shot at the president.

    Surely, you're not surprised at giddy's position?

    He and basso are both consistent.

    No, I just read the summation that you provided... which was no threat, just a wish expressed in an outrageous fashion.

    Not sure why you had to reply to me twice, but I'll follow suit...

    there will be no justification for anyone taking a shot at any president... and you are silly for thinking that I would feel any differently.

    Your side seems to project a lot of extremism to anyone who disagrees with y'all-- even to a ridiculous place like "approving" assassination attempts.

    ... not sure how or why your imagination squeezed out this piece. Care to explain?

    There was NO threat in the summary that mcmcark posted. End of discussion. Point mine! Shall I copy and post for your convenience?

    I'll ask again:

    <hr>

    To use giddyup's phrase, you seem to be projecting an extremist position on Clinton and Obama, without even bothering to provide supporting evidence.
