I was running a couple of errands and had on AM talk radio and some guy by the name of Mark Levin was hosting a show. It was not just what he said about the President but how he said it.
Earlier in the day, I had heard Rick Perry, the Governor of Texas, say something about the President not wanting to "defend our borders". In other words, Barack Obama wanted our nation to fail. He was an enemy of our nation.
Then, I listen to Mark Levin. He was saying something similar to Governor Perry but with more passion and more hatred. The charges he leveled against the President were almost to the level of sedition and insurrection. He's a dictator who has destroyed this country. He wanted the illegal aliens to come across our borders. In other words, he (Obama) hates America.
I could hear a call for violence, even if not outright spoken. The degree of hatred by some of these people is scary. And people like Levin are cheering it on...

Their hatred of Obama has been going on for several years but it seems it has multiplied several fold?

It's all a ratings game among morons. It only seems increased because it is an election year.

(25,699 posts)There's no mystery here. Conservatives want to kill liberals. All of them. They want to engage in a purge that would make Pinochet or Suharto blush.
This is just their way of working up the spit to do it.

He's been outspoken since the Clinton Lewinsky era, when he started appearing on TV as a pundit.
He's a lawyer.
He's a creep, too.

(23,741 posts)A daily diet of this hate, even for a few hours a day, along with reinforcement by Faux News, has brainwashed a whole segment of the population. These people are so programmed they vote against their own self interests.

(6,002 posts)divisiveness. It is exactly that, it's a call to violence, and the extremism on display in the right is a time bomb, exactly why CNN cut off Perry recently. Racism didn't die, like our "democracy" THAT too is an illusion.
