Tea Party leaders prove to be dangerous AND stupid Man I am so sick of both parties and their partisan and special intrest controlled lobbiests, pacs, and the actions of almost every politician at every level of government. I am so glad we have a supreme court. It does the only good in gov't I see today; and that's only what 10% of the time? How do so many people get it wrong so many times? Shouldn't the laws of averages and the odds make them right at least once in a while?

Tea Party leaders prove to be dangerous AND stupid Well, I never subscribe to one-brush stroke fits all. Except for the French, of course. I would make a couple of other distinctions. For me, organizer/leader != supporter. One is in charge. One follows. I seldom fault a leader for the action of a single or few supporters. More than a few, and I look for trends, and see if the trends are caused or exacerbated by the leaders. But reading about this guy, he is literally certifiable. And therefore possibly dangerous. If he sent the threat based on Obama's (or his mouthpieces') rhetoric, then Obama should be held accountable. No doubt. I personally have already sent a letter to the White House complaining about both the use of the recent violence as a fundraising opportunity, and as importantly for his people for being so disgustingly mealy-mouthed about it on the Sunday news shows. I also sent one to my Senator Scott Brown, calling him out for the disingenuous fundraising letter last week, and more, for fundraising MOSTLY outside of Massachusetts. That ain't right, either. FWIW, I am very happy this guy was taken off the street, and that Rep Cantor is OK. There is no excuse for this behavior.
