They took the country hostage and theatened total financial doom in order to get what they want.
Isn't that terrorism?
Their political sadism will certainly cause 1000s of deaths and 100s of 1000s of unnecessary pain and (increased) poverty of the old, the poor, the disabled, the uninsured for want of health care.
And their "Christian" supporters will be silent accomplices as they were when the Repugs busted into Iraq.
Politics is tough, sons.
nkdlunch: were you looking for this?
If your name is boutons, RandomGuy, or Alan Grayson, the answer is yes.
50 million climate refugees by 2010
non sequitur?
Terrorists or spoiled children. Take your pick.
One person's terrorist is anothers freedom fighter.
I believe I have been pointing this out to you for years now, and you are just now getting it?
Where were all the teabaggers when Bush was creating record national deficits?
Telling everyone who didn't support the president that they hated America.
pretty much. Also I don't see much difference between the tea bagger that shot that congress woman and the children and an alkhaeda cell
Deficits don't matter when you don't have a black Kenyan muslim terrorist in the white house.
The better question is where did the anti-war movement go?
The so-called antiwar movement was mainly a partisan dog-whistle. Election marked the end of its usefulness to Barack Obama (and most of the people who voted for him.)

A few lonely voices still cry out in the wilderness, true partisans prefer to defend their political man whatever he does, and the will of the country is passed over in silence.
About 70% of Americans think we need to conclude our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. When will politicians start respecting them?
lol Obama and co. demagoguing Giffords run in with near death
"When will politicians start respecting them?"
Never. politicians respect, above all else, the lobbyists who hand them UCA contribs, jobs, speaking engagements, junkets, gifts.
I won't be so sure. The amount of anti-war demonstrators at the local army fort hasn't changed much since the wars started (same with the pro-war people).
What was noteworthy around here is the new influx of demonstrators in front of the local SS office, with banners like "Hands off my money", etc.
They got what they wanted.
In a way, this is the same point. Apart from hard core, vocational agitators, there hasn't been much of an antiwar movement. Its ranks were swelled by good Democrats in 2006. Where did all of the outrage go?
It abated greatly due to the Sunni Awakening, and the reduction in casualty rates.
Irony, given that the touchy feely, academically elitist counter-insurgency doctrine that comprised the main principles of the Surge and successful change in strategy are of the kind that are an anethema to the red meat conservatives.
