Leftists have been responsible for all assasination attempts.
From my home page:
Look at the assasination attempts on presidents and other people in the last few years, they are all leftist kooks.
Giuseppe Zangara, shot Anton J. Cermak,(Mayor of Chicago) Feb. 15, 1933, in Miami and also attempted to assassinate Franklin D. Roosevelt; Cermak died March 6. Zangara was charged with murder and after being found guilty was sentenced to death in the electric chair at the Florida State Penitentiary. When he heard his sentence he yelled at the judge, "You give me electric chair. I no afraid of that chair! You're one of capitalists.
2 Puerto Rican Nationalists (similar to those FALN types that Clinton released in 1999) - assasination attempt on Harry S. Truman in 1950
Lee Oswald (John F. Kennedy)
Sirhan Sirhan (Robert Kennedy)
Sam Byck, 1974, (Richard M. Nixon) - Byck, an unemployed furniture salesman who hated Nixon and capitalism, and even protested at the White House to impeach him. He had a history of mental illness, investigated by the Secret Service in 1972 after he threatened President Nixon. In July, 1974, he attempts to hi-jack a jetliner with the intent of flying it "as best I can" into the White House to assassinate Nixon. During the attempt, he kills a security officer in the airport, and kills the pilot and co-pilot in the plane while still on the ground. Byck is shot by another officer, then kills himself.

Charles J. Guiteau an insane attorney, "...he turned to the religious doctrines of John Humphrey Noyes, founder of the Oneida Community in New York State in the 1840s, who promulgated a kind of "Bible communism."(Garfield)
Leon Czolgosz "...Around 1900, Leon read more and more of the socialist and anarchist newspapers that were appearing across the country. He started to take an advid interest in the plight of the working man." (McKinley)
what about Lincoln's assasinator?
A lot of the hard left are very scary individuals.
I have a feeling that the people they're looking for are not Americans of any political stripe, but those "others" who have been mixing in with the stream of leafblower-bearers flooding across the border.
"Leftists have been responsible for all assasination attempts."
Mostly--at least those that have been publicized--but there have been exceptions. Of those I'm aware of:
--In 1934 there was a plot backed by leaders of Morgan Bank, Du Pont, and General Motors to overthrow FDR in a military coup and install General Smedley Butler as President. However when the conspirators tried to persuade Butler to join the plot, he told FDR.
--Again in 1939, there was a similar plot by officers of V Corps and a KKK-like group called the Knights of the White Cardelia, which was allied with Nazi agents, to overthrow FDR and replace him with Major General George Van Horn Moseley.
--In 1963 an anti-Castro group plotted to kill JFK by flying a plane into Air Force One as it approached Miami. This was one of several plots against JFK at this time, involving both right-wing and left-wing groups.
Sadaam Hussein's former PR-boy, Sean Penn, will play failed presidential assassin, Samuel Bicke (what a stretch) in his next piece of crap entitled, "The Assassination of Richard Nixon".
Some of his recent quotes regarding the movie:
"The story of a twisted head on a basically good man is a valuable story, and the results of what happened are more dangerous not to look at than to look at," he said.
"I think that administrations have to look at how they oppress their own people and people in other countries and understand that if they take people's hopes and dreams away, bad things can happen."
"I guess the problem is that, statistically, there's a lot more of them today and we can be grateful to President (George W.) Bush for that."
One thing is certain ... Sean shines when playing retards, losers, and failures.
