WASHINGTON — Democrats, including Rep. Betty McCollum, launched into an assault on incivility Tuesday, saying incendiary words from members of Congress were inflaming tensions that could provoke another incident of Oklahoma City-style domestic terrorism.
"When Members of Congress compare health-care legislation to ‘government tyranny,’ ‘socialism,’ or ‘totalitarianism’ — in the hopes of scoring political points — it's like pouring gas on the fire of extremism," McCollum said.
McCollum's St. Paul office was one of a few that received an envelope containing gasoline-soaked tatters of an American flag and a letter that called her things not fit for print in this or any publication. Several police departments, including St. Paul and the Capitol Police, are investigating.
"The members of this House — Democrats and Republicans — have a duty and an obligation to end the dangerous name-calling that can only inspire the extremist militias and phony patriots," McCollum said. "In the most free, prosperous and greatest democracy on earth it is time to return to a civil, decent debate of public policy."

Yep - oppose a CommieCrate with logic and fact, and BAM - you are an EXTREMIST on DHS terrorist watch list!
This is to rich. The liberals have been fanning the flames for years. The Bush years were among the worst.
“”saying incendiary words from members of Congress were inflaming tensions that could provoke another incident of Oklahoma City-style domestic terrorism.””
They are all getting out in front now so when the “you know what” hits the fan, they will be able to say “told you so.” Not that any of their actions or rhetoric or lousy bills or their desire to destroy our country will be responsible for such acts - not at all - never! Don’t they know we all know what they are up to?
Exactly my thoughts.
King George’s boys and girls used to “warn of extremism” for all the good it did them. We still kicked their @$$. This is America! We’re a free people! Kickin’ @$$ is what we do!
She definitely has a guilty conscience. And that jerking arm of hers ~ just like Dr. Strangelove eh!
Ask Bobby Jindal’s aide about Republican extremism.
A molitov cocktail was thrown at the home of Jan Brewer’s chief spokesman the other day in Arizona as well.
Left wing desperation time.
Extremism? When extremism comes in the form of government action, now that’s extremism! It reminds me of the kid that was speeding down the freeway at 100 mph. When the cop catches up with him and pulls him over, he complains to the officer that extreme measures were used to be chased at 100 mph.
Oklahoma was a terrorists act
Now, now let’s show some civility. That’s “Please F.O....”
So telling the truth about Obamacare is now considered incendiary? You'd think that with the threats that some congresscritters have received they'd get a clue that the American people do NOT want Obamacare or BIG government. Even now, they still refuse to listen and see the truth. Disgusting.

TRUTH hurts.
Fear.

Bump!
Uh, shall we talk about the extremists on the Democratic side of the aisle? Bunch of socialist airheads. Not to mention the extremists in the White House.
I am so amazed at how misogynistic the Dems are. But why not? They can get away with it.
