Via BlueRidgeNow.com comes news that we somehow otherwise missed, that NC-11 Congressman Heath Shuler got a death threat over his vote for the Stimulus Bill back last year. A 70-year-old man with "a history of mental illness" and "a large supply of weapons" left a message on the answering machine at Shuler's district office: "If you vote for that stimulus package, I'm gonna kill you. Simple as that...."When the police followed up and talked to the man, he said, "I was trying to work the political scene."
Wonder where he learned that particular method of working the political scene? Surely not from Limbaugh or Beck, national GOP chair and vice-chair, respectively, or the guys toting side-arms at presidential appearances.

I detect a tone of sarcasm.
So tell me, with proof, of when Limbaugh, Beck the GOP Chair and Vice Chair or the gun toters at the appearances ever suggested such violence?
No doubt the Dude learn about it when a Tea Party Senior Citzens group conducted a machine gun ice cream social in the lobby of the Senior Citizens home.......
Wow, that answer explains it all!
( That was dripping with sarcasm by the way)
