The Big Hate

PAUL KRUGMAN
Back in April, there was a huge fuss over an internal report by the Department of Homeland Security warning that current conditions resemble those in the early 1990s — a time marked by an upsurge of right-wing extremism that culminated in the Oklahoma City bombing.
But with the murder of Dr. George Tiller by an anti-abortion fanatic, closely followed by a shooting by a white supremacist at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, the analysis looks prescient.

    I'm surprised that Mr. Paul Krugman didn't continue on to explain that the coming onslaught of Violent Right Wing Nutters was actually caused by Ronald Reagan's tax cuts.
    Dear Lefties, try to remain calm,and get some bug spray ...
    you're 100 times more likely to die from a US bee sting,
    than to be killed by a Violent US Right Wing Wingnutter.

  2. Right wing nutters, I like this description of them -
     
    "“I won’t share my toys; they’re mine! I want my tax cut lolly! Now!” Their sippy cups runneth over with rage. Overweight, evincing a junk food engendered, toddler-like waddle, and blubbering in their snit fit of thwarted id, they resemble heavily armed Teletubbies in the throes of an angel dust-induced psychosis."
     
    LOL
