Ahh...tolerant leftists working out their differences the socialist way.

For those of you that don't know about him, Baghdad Jim McDermott is representative-for-life from the deepest, darkest Seattle district; a politburo that would make Stalin proud. Jim can only tie his left shoe, and can scratch his left ass-cheek with his beard. The fact that one of his constituents was upset with him is just some internal Leon Trotsky-type icepick work. Nothing to see here.

The times they are a-changin’.

I don’t recall anyone threatening Adlai Stevenson in this manner.

Ike, either, for that matter.

I remain convinced that a full and open reading of the captured Iraqi documents would have revealed that McDermott provided aid and comfort to the enemy.

I’m not seeing the crime here.

How come this guy gets a felony charge and that guy that rushed Trump on stage gets a TV interview?

Because back then at least the majority had some self respect. Now it’s cool to be trash.

If some Tea Party follower had done this it would be screaming top-of-the-headlines news 24/7.

We are not the ones who instigate political violence.
Yet the media will always try and stick us with the blame for it.

Actually Jim McDermott is somewhat to the LEFT of Bernie Sanders on most issues, which is probably why this particular supporter was so upset with McDermott.

Some people are just purists, and cannot stand the contamination that Herself brings to the high calling of the reform socialists. Like among militant Muslims, apostasy must be dealt with severely, and to the True Believer leftists, Herself speaks great calumny against the mighty prophet KKKarl Marx.

Excellent news! One of the ways we’re going to take this country back is to let the Sanders and Hitlerbeast supporters kill each other. This will reveal to more LIVs that the Dementocrat Party is inhospitable to all but the craziest of liberals.

Cutting out Jim McDermott’s tongue wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world.
