The Republicans are inciting crazed behavior...
I've been listening to right-wing-hate radio this week, and from Limbaugh to Beck to Mark Levin
and Hannity--these talk show hosts are trying to inflame their listeners into behaving like
out of control goons on a mission.

The problem is--these talk show hosts are convincing the sheeple that revolting and fighting back
is brave and stoic, and that anyone who rises up and fights against government healthcare is
fighting the good fight--like the framers of the Constitution.

For the love of Pete. We all know that Republicans are only fighting for corporate America. They
are doing the bidding of the insurance companies, who want to continue making profits by screwing
American citizens out of basic healthcare. The Republicans are fighting for the insurance companies--they
are not fighting for the principals outlined in our Constitution, that's for damn sure.

They practically made a mockery of the Constitution during the Bush years. How in the world can these
lemming listeners with radios not see the hypocrisy and the lies???

I was listening to Mark Levin tonight, and he told his listeners that if they rose up and fought against
Obama and government healthcare--that they would be the equivalent of William Wallace from Braveheart. Levin
was shouting and igniting such hatred and bamboozling listeners into believing that if they protested and
made a lot of noise--that they were the equivalent of history's greatest and bravest heroes.

Do these people fail to realize that they are the lynch mobs presented in Braveheart? Do they not see that
they are the simpletons during the Braveheart death scene--who were hootin and a hollerin for William Wallace's
death?

Listen to talk radio. I know it's gut wrenching. I know you'll probably need to drink Pepto and pop valium
every five minutes--but you need to listen to what is going on.

The Republican party has failed. They realize that the party is failed, with no signs of resurrection. They
are calling on the ignorant, the misguided and the foolish to be their army and overthrow this government. They
are attempting to incite violence, and they are convincing very naive people that they are fighting for our
country and the Constitution.

It's very sickening and sad.
