Bill Clinton plays politics with Timothy McVeigh.
Liberal Democrats and their friends in the media have tried just about everything to dismiss and discredit the tea-party movement. They've accused Americans who are anxious and angry about a rapidly encroaching government of being racists, extremists, birthers, pawns of a corporate "AstroTurf" effort—and, now, potential Timothy McVeighs.
No less a figure than Bill Clinton seized on the occasion of the Oklahoma City bombing's 15th anniversary to lecture tea-party activists, first in a speech last week to the Center for American Progress Action Fund, then in a Monday New York Times op-ed. "Have at it, go fight, go do whatever you want," he said in the speech. "You don't have to be nice; you can be harsh. But you've got to be very careful not to advocate violence or cross the line." In the op-ed, he wrote: "There is a big difference between criticizing a policy or a politician and demonizing the government."

I’ve been very disturbed by this. It’s not we who are demonizing the government; it’s the government that is demonizing us.
I was driving along the highway listening to Obama raving the other day, and it suddenly occurred to me that the paradigm has shifted: for the first time, the US government sees itself as something separate from and hostile to the majority of the US citizenry. This is not good.
Thanks, Billy Jeff, for reminding me why I despised you all those years ago.
An American for seventy years...and I've never, ever felt that way.
'Till now.
Playing around with remembering Waco and Lexington and Concord (Patriot’s Day) might not bring exactly what they have in mind.
That some of our sleazeball “leaders” try to exploit the OK City bombing even today for political gain is almost as bad as the event itself.
These people really DO put government in the place of God, don't they?
"It's OK to criticize a preacher, but don't go criticizing (our) God"
Only in America 2010 A.D. could a perjurous, disbarred sexual degenerate lecture decent people.
It’s like a set up. The Democrats are hoping We The People will cause a scene.
It won’t be us, we’re really nice, happy people. We’re angry that the Democrats are not acting as if they love this Country, but We The People will not be the first to start any violence.
Bubba is a foil. He’s a slimy pond scumming obfuscating moron, saying what Obama is afraid to say.
Obama is a scairdy cat. Obama is a scairdy cat. He’s afraid to confront We The People.
