ah boy, tea party republicans last week ganged up on a man who was very sick with parkinsons disease. they ridiculed him publicly and violently. and today tea party republicans stood outside of the capitol building attacking congressmen, calling members of congress, and i quote: “niggers” and “faggots”, and threatening to shoot congressmen who support health care legislation.
this is the face of the republican party in 2010? people who threaten to shoot congressmen? people who refer to honorable elected officials as “niggers” and “faggots”? people who violently ridicule men and women who have life threatening illnesses? yes, that’s the republican party in 2010. the hate-filled spawn of fox news and ann coulter and rush limbaugh and dick cheney. irrationally hateful people, filled with fear and rage for anything that’s not white and republican and angry and familiar.
i don’t mean to be reactionary, but the tea party republican party genuinely scares me. their intolerance. their ignorance. their hate. their violence. it seems like it’s only a matter of time before they start shooting everyone who dares to disagree with them. i hope that the rest of america wakes up and sees the tea party republicans for what they are: ignorant, violent, hate-filled, racist, provincial, and dangerous.
