There's mounting evidence that at least some of Obama's faithful intend to see a black American president sworn in next year -- no matter what it takes.
Earlier this month, popular black author and talk-show host Tavis Smiley disclosed death threats he'd received from those accusing him of blasphemy against their black prophet. Then, at Saturday's Smiley-hosted State of the Black Union forum, Congressional Black Caucus member Stephanie Tubbs Jones lent credence to Smiley's claim by suggesting that many black elected officials not swearing allegiance to Obama have also been the target of violent threats.
While widely ignored by the mainstream media, the implications here are nothing short of momentous. The very prospect of physical intimidation as a means of garnering political compliance from Americans awakens frightening images of the thuggish antics of one William M "Boss" Tweed in mid-nineteenth century New York. Having survived the 2000 election debacle without even the threat of bloodshed, would some now have us back on the road to the iniquitous days of Tammany Hall?

I thought the dems wanted everyone to have a voice?
What a joke.
Just like they are going after Nader for running. I thought anyone and everyone could run? They can, as long as it doesn’t affect THEIR chances of winning.
Hillary doesn't even warn you.
The MSM tried to say that Rush Limbaugh was a “Boss Tweed” or “Catfish” figure (both corrupt Democrats) because he was critical of McCain.
LOL!
This kinda sounds like HRC is behind this!
Good point!
I see this author didn't have the pleasure of being stuck in a riot related traffic jam on North Broad Street Election night 2000.
I never understood what that was supposed to accomplish: A nearly 100% democrat neighborhood filled with drivers who were nearly 100% democrat, having their cars jumped on and windsheilds smashed by democrats in "Gore 2000" t shirts.
But that's probably why the democrat message has so little resonance with me.

Hate to be trite but, please pass the popcorn.
Attended an Obama rally at the nutter center last night.
Some of those folks are a bit rabid.
I don’t think this is gonna be pretty. regardless what happens.
Good point!
Such a beautiful culture ...
I'm Blacker than Obama. Just ask my husband.
/Sarcasm OFF
Dead cats and stuff, I bet
Been to Osteria yet? They just had their windows vandalized.

(I don't think they meant the OTHER Kingfish . . . of Amos 'n' Andy fame.)
Probably Black Muslim goons from Calypso Louie.
I was coming back from the National Signing Day Event at Temple a couple of weeks ago and was shocked to see how far north on Broad it was. Almost seems like city hall to Temple is being redeveloped.
Let me guess, it was that punk with the HCl, who sprays his name across large plate glass windows?
