Later, the Unabomber was called a "Mad Genius".
Somehow I doubt that the angry rhetoric spouted by Howard Dean and others has been questioned as being "bad for America". They certainly have been divisive. Bill Clinton sought to put people against one another with talk of race envy and class envy.
The FBI's national security was made to seek out why we were having a "rash" of "racially motivated" church fires. Turns out we weren't. But Bubba got a lot of milage out of such talk.
People don't like to hear that we may one day have another civil war (not anti-government, but people at each other's throats). The left wing nuts sure are heading there. They've rioted in the streets after judicial decisions they didn't agree with. They've rioted in the streets during the "peace" protests. They are being agitated by blackshirt anarchists and don't realize it; those people DO seek to overthrow the government. They sought the same in 1968 too.
