Memo to Teabaggers: You Can't Tread on Us, Either
The two questions that first spring to mind are, why isn't Rand Paul campaign coordinator/professional thug Tim Profitt in jail for curb-stomping a defenseless woman and why does he think she owes him an apology? An apology for what, putting her head and shoulder under his jackboot?
Another question I'd like to add is, considering that Profitt is not only still a free man and that there are no pending assault charges and nothing worse than a criminal summons against him, how come Democrat Jon Taylor was arrested, wrestled to the ground and charged with three crimes just for peacefully appearing at an Eric Cantor event with an invitation?
And, while I hate to side with Tim Profitt on this issue, how come Kentucky police let things get so out of hand that a woman was openly assaulted when they were certainly within range to do something about it if not prevent it?
It would be easy to dismiss these random acts of violence visited on Democrats and liberal activists on campaign staffers and supporters but the one fact that no one had addressed is why the police are letting them get away with it? Anyone keeping track of the rise in right wing violence as the midterms approach will see an unmistakable pattern of the police aiding and abetting such violence if not not actually taking part in it. After all, why would Jon Taylor get tossed from a coffee shop when he had an invitation to the Cantor event? It seems to more than suggest that if you're a Republican, you have the right to create your own little (Sorry, Ms. O'Donnell) witch hunt. Just point your finger at a Democrat, tell lies such as him disturbing the peace and the local constabulary will be only too glad to do your bidding. It seems for every Victor Phillips, there are 100 Tim Profitts and Alan Wests.
So, what's going on? Is police protection only for Republicans in spite of the fact that they and they alone are calling for "2nd amendment remedies" and hiring bikers and other camera-blocking, unlicensed thugs to do security at a middle school?
Well, I have had enough. Mrs. JP and I are going to be at the rallies from start to finish. And to anyone out there planning on organizing a counter rally to the Stewart/Colbert counter rallies, I have one thing to say to you:
Try and start trouble, I'll step on you like I would an over ripe grape. Just try to disrupt this rally with your right wing thuggery and you'll be outnumbered probably by at least 1000 to 1 and I'll be right at the vanguard taping the whole thing. It's a public event and anyone can come but that doesn't give you the right to start violence. You start it, I'll finish it if I have anything to say about it.
Because I've had it with us being the nice guys and I think we all know what Leo Durocher said about nice guys. You don't want to be treaded on by our big, bad Socialist government? Fine.
But you can't tread on us, either, starting with me.

It's because Republicans are above the Rule of Law. They say so on their syndicated radio and their Fox News shows; their presidents routinely, brazenly, openly lie - easily refutable lies - to the American People, call those that point out that they are lying traitors, just to start illegal and immoral wars for the sole purpose of transferring trillions of dollars in taxpayer's wealth to the obscenely wealthy war profiteers - with the added bonus or murdering thousand of US soldiers and hundreds of thousands of brown people!
With the GOP leaders setting the bar of untouchable criminality that high, it's no wonder that Palin and Giuliani can praise a war criminal who is running for office.
It's no wonder that anti-American TeaBaggers can assault helpless women on camera - traditional family values, by the way - and then not only be arrested, but to then demand an apology from that helpless woman. Hey, if President Cheney can shoot a man in the face and then demand, and receive, an apology for doing it, then why not the rest of the rank and file?
Glenn Beck is on his Fox News TV show openly calling for the overthrow of the US Government and the mass murder o the 70% of Americans that aren't insane.
Our 'Liberal' Media are only slightly less in-the-bag for the far-right wing than Fox News is, so they are not about to tell the truth.
The Dems are clearly under the direct control of the GOP, under orders to NOT do anything with their Progressive Mandate of 2008, and so the Dems meekly sat on their hands and allowed the super-minority to control everything the Dems said and did for the last two years.
The Dems eagerly licked the boots of their GOP slave-masters, especially the President, for the last two years, all the while knowing that they were a crucial part of the GOP's plans to get back into power in 2010. All the while knowing that the GOP will continue their almost complete, long term plans to finally kill off the Middle Class by impoverishing all us and turning the US into some third-world banana-republic.
The TeaBaggers are the second worst of the lot (after the Fake Dems in the White House and Congress). Because the TeaBaggers willfully and fervently believe the most flimsiest of lies, they are like the JudenRat of old, helping the authoritarian rich overthrow the legitimate government while believing the whole time that this will save them from the ovens.
For anyone who cares, Mrs. JP and I finally rolled into Arlington @ 8:30 tonight... after exactly 11 hours of driving. I'm bushed and I'm going to bed now. I'll be liveblogging the rallies if I can find a wifi connection on the mall.
