“Cantor: Threats? This. Is. Congress!”
by Daniel Foster
SNIPPET: “”It is reckless to use these incidents as a media vehicle for political gains,” Cantor said, saying that he has consistently chosen not to publicize the volume of threats he routinely receives by e-mail — many because he is Jewish — and revealing that a bullet was recently fired into his offices.”

“Breaking: Bomb threat against Tea Party organizers”
POSTED AT 1:18 PM ON SEPTEMBER 12, 2009 BY ED MORRISSEY
SNIPPET: “The Washington DC Tea Party appears to be a big success, but it’s not for lack of trying among the movement’s more lunatic opponents. Yesterday, the DC Metro police evacuated the offices of Freedomworks after several threats, including a bomb-threat phone call that police considered credible enough to investigate:”
SNIPPET: “The threat came when a man called the FreedomWorks main line and told the organization’s female receptionist: “I put a bomb in your building, bitch.”
The FreedomWorks staffer who spoke with ABC News said that the organization has received multiple threats but that for some reason, the DC Metro police thought that this one was credible enough to evacuate the building.”
SNIPPET: “It’s doubly ironic that these terroristic threats — and that’s what they are — took place on the eighth anniversary of 9/11, an irony apparently lost on the nutcases trying to disrupt a peaceful demonstration. It’s simply despicable.”
