In 2010, just a few months after the IRS began targeting the TEA Party specifically by name, there was the attempted car bombing in NYC.
The dems tried to blame the attempted bombing on the TEA Party because the bomb was a fertilizer bomb, which just by coincidence I’m sure, matched the dems talking points before the attempted bombing comparing the TEA Party to Tim McVeigh wannabes.
Had the dems been successful in pinning that attempted bombing on the TEA Party, everyone associated with the TEA Party would have been declared a terrorist and I have no doubts they would have been rounded up.

Yes, I remember that.
They tried to do it after the Gabby Giffords shooting, and after the James Holmes shooting in Aurora, Colorado as well.
I believe there have been other attempts in addition to those.
In the case of the Giffords shooting, they tried to pin the blame directly on Sarah Palin. To do so, they ignored the fact that one of the fatalities was a Republican-appointed federal judge named John Roll.
