Allen,
Please do so. I would seriously like to see the extreme left wing
events that have had Democratic Members of Congress and other Democratic
Party leaders speaking about being at war and making allusions to Republican
Party members being "dead" if they do such a thing as vote for or against a
given measure. Please provide some transcripts of Democratic Party members
making allusions and illusionary threats on the floor of Congress as well.
I haven't seen any of that.
I heard there was a crazy wacko Left-Wing (And entirely
Anti-Democracy) allegedly "anti-war" protest out in California a few weeks
to a month back. It has been pointed at by some conservative speakers as a
moral and functional equivalency to the Tea Party movement. Except for a few
things, like there were less than 2,000 people at that single event, they
were virtually all communists (which the majority of Democratic Party folks
absolutely disagree with), 9/11 truthers and a variety of other nutjobs who
were denouncing Democratic and Republican members of Congress as well as
President Obama. There was also a distinct lack of Democratic Party Congress
people and Democratic Party leaders present giving speaches, calling for the
heads of Republicans, etc., etc., etc.
Those people are lunatics and they are nowhere near representative
of the ideals of the Democratic Party anymore than someone making the claim
that Nazis are remotely representative of the ideals of the Republican
Party.
Yet at the Right Wing Tea Party events, there's been significantly
more than 2,000 people present at the many events across the entire nation
and those people also have had the direct support (and speeches even) of
prominent Republican Party members of Congress. In many of those speeches
there's been some dangerously close to the edge remarks regarding the
continued breathing of Democratic Party members. They have been alsmot
exclusively focused on deriding Democratic Party members of Congress.
From everything that I have seen/read/heard, the moral and
functional equivalency just isn't there. However, if you can find some
equivalency to show us, I'll accept it and I will denounce the bad behavior
of people claiming to be doing "good work" for the Democratic Party, because
that behavior is nowhere near good or acceptable by anyone.
At he same time, you might want to do some denouncing of your own
(if you happen to align yourself with the current people in charge of the
Republican Party) or you will come across looking like someone who agrees
that political discourse includes death threats, property destruction and
general miscreant antics. Personally, I'd like to believe that most of us
are above such poor behavior.
