Louise Slaughter and Bart Stupak have received death threats.
A tea party participant published what he thought was Thomas Perriello’s home address and urged disgruntled voters to “drop by” for a “good face-to-face chat.”
Vandals broke windows at Slaughter’s office in New York and Gabrielle Giffords’s office in Arizona.
And angry voters are planning to protest this weekend at the home of Steve Driehaus — who’s already seen a photograph of his children used in a newspaper ad published by reform opponents.

Good. They should be afraid.
Sorry. When you fight the American People, They fight back.
It’s always been this way, it will always be this way. What did they expect?

It will only get worse, I predict. People are angry because these idiots refused to listen to us. Hell hath no fury like voters spurned.

It’s just getting started...

These vermin ain't seen nuthin’ yet. November is getting ever closer.
Didn’t Diehaus understand how much his constituency opposed the bill? Didn’t he know there would be a cost for choosing his party over his constituents? Did he buy the Democratic propoganda that the Tea Party is just a Republican equivalent of ACORN?
Tell it to Sarah Palin's children, scumbag.
They need to go back and read up on the Sons of Liberty and how that group reacted after the Stamp Act...
Interesting how the tin eared politicos passed the bill on the aniversary of the Stamp Act, btw....
Paging Dan Rostenkowski. Paging Mr. Dan Rostenkowski. Cleanup on Aisle 6.
Good post and GREAT tagline!
It was A-OK to make things “personal” when it involved Sarah Palin’s family. Now that the shoe’s on the other foot ...
As a senior in HS in 1972, I was called "baby killer" and other fine names during my last two months of HS. Why? I had the temerity to accept a 4 year Army ROTC scholarship.
I have never forgotten those last two months of HS.
