We all know about all the police officers and regular civilians that have died because some nutjob conservative thinks Obama is personally going to take away their guns so they go on a killing spree. More people have died from that then Americans killed by swine flu by the way. Now doctors are being assassinated by other nut job conservatives.
Now I am going to purposefully be redundant and say that "not all right-wing conservatives are crazy nut job conservatives" because I have noticed a common tactic conservative legislators use to somehow get out of telling their own voters that they are morons is by saying "well these are only a tiny element in our party" or " most conservatives don't believe killing doctors is right"
I'm tired of people making excuses saying, "well these ppl were not crazy right-wingers, they are just crazy people in general"
These killers publicly refer to them selves as conservatives, libertarians, right-wingers etc. So when are the republican leaders going to stand up and tell their own voters to shun this type of behaviour, and to not let it creep up, and grow, and build and form underground organizations. When will they stop pretending that democrats and liberals and left-minded individuals are some how attacking every republican in America when they criticize these cop killers and doctor killers?
"OMG we are all victims of racism if judge Sotomayor is confirmed"
"OMG miss california is a Victim of liberals"
"OMG gun owners are Victims of gun-control laws"
"OMG citizens are Victims every time a law is passed, because we lose freedoms to do whatever we want."
There will be no change until someone in the GOP leadership will have the courage to tell their own voters that they are wrong on certain issues when, infact, they are wrong.
Democrats, explain issues to the public, persuade them to a particular position. Actually try and enlighten individuals. The GOP just says "The people are always right, the government is always wrong"
They need to GROW UP AND SPEAK OUT BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE DYING BECAUSE OF THEIR SILENCE
The GOP have managed to do this in the past, and I pressume that they will eventually change, but I would prefer them to change now, instead of changing 8 years from now and countless deaths later.
