The Winger Response

The irresponsible faux outrage on the "Slaughter Rule" perpetrated by the Wingers has already led to violence. The Buffalo News:
The "Slaughter Solution" on health care isn't the only thing that has come under attack in U.S. Rep. Louise M. Slaughter's world this week. Sometime early this morning, someone threw a brick through the front window of her Pine Avenue office.

The damage was discovered about 12:30 a.m., city police said.

The brick put a hole in the outer-most window at the office at 1910 Pine Ave., but did not damage a second interior window, police reported. A piece of broken brick believed to have caused the damage was found at the scene.

Damage was estimated at $350.
This is a primary example of how the media is used by conservatives in this country to fuel irrational and inchoate anger, to create a climate that cannot be governed.  They are willing to light these fires and unleash them on everyone in order to so damage the party in power that they are willing to bet the safety of this country on their scheme to regain political control.

If they cannot run the country, then they will create fear, paranoia, anger, and eventually violence to the point where those in power flee and they can take over the remains.  And they are willing to immolate our country in order to "win".

Better to reign in hell...

[UPDATE 4:40 PM] The sign reads "Warning: If Brown can't stop it, a Browning can."

Tea Party gun sign

Stay classy, Wingers.
