On Thursday evening, while in Wausau, WI at an event for Americans for Prosperity (a Conservative Group which helped organize the Tea Parties) Samuel "Joe the Plumber" (JtP) Wurzelbacher suggested Senator Chris Dodd should be lynched. The Teapartiers in the group were outrageous as they compared the Obama administration to Stalinist Russia. JtP peppered his hate speech against Obama with insults hurled at Sen. Dodd saying several times, "Why hasn't he been strung up?" With the current environment of Hate Crimes on the rise, it is unbelievable that Wurzelbacher is screaming these epiteths and agitating those in his audience, suggesting any politician be assassinated as he did. He is absolutely disgraceful!!!
It is unbelievable that he is allowed to speak this way. This is NOT free speech! These are death threats! He should be arrested! Any groups (including his friends at AFP and Fox News (e.g.: Hannity, Beck) condoning his words/actions should be chastised by the American Public.

AZ,
Fuzzy? Calling for the assassination of a US Senator to an audience of right wingnuts is a fuzzy definition of Hate Speech?
My gosh Az. I am surprised at you.
I would expect you to also condemn JtP for advocating violence. We are living in the era of numerous attempts on our President's life, the assassination of a Physician in the name of overturning Roe v Wade, police shootings in the name of supporting the 2nd Ammendment, and another on an immigration center by right wing zealot who could not get to the politicians he wanted to murder, and a major increase in Hate Crimes against Latinos, Gays and Jews, and you say JtP's call to lynch Senator Dodd "Fuzzy" hate speech? Unbelievable!
The group the conservative right wingnuts are attacking and calling for assination of: the Democrats.
The quote was correct! The attribution was incorrect, however it is the same point! The whole group of them are demonizing athe presidency, the democrats and JtP is advocating assassination of a Senator.
Why is it you cannot see it for what it is. Raw, Unadulterated Call to Violence by an extreme rightwing group of individuals. With the number of extreme right wingnuts executing violence (e.g.: Roeder, Poplawski, etc. etc.) it is insane to instigate a crowd of like minded zealots to such violence and murder.
Trouble with Shitting Dogs :
A gardener once told me that dogs are not dirty and filthy for shitting on other people's lawns, sidewalks or driveways.
The dirty and filthy guy is the owner of the dog that does not train the dog to shit at home, or that does not carry a bag and a little spade for gathering the filthy production.
In this story the dirty and filthy is not poor "Joe, the plumber" an ignorant and pathetic poor guy that is trying to earn a few pennies without too much effort.
The Filthy and Dirty is the Conservative Group that organizes Orgies of Imbecility and Tea Parties.

Az,
You still didn't answer the question. Why is it you cannot see it for what it is. Raw, Unadulterated Call to Violence by an extreme rightwing group of individuals?
Just admit they are advocating violence/murder! NOTHING justifies their doing so. NOTHING.
Az,
Are you suggesting Joe the Plumber and all of his supporters move to an island in a new world and lay a claim to it?
If so, not a bad idea.
Here are a few they might try.
Az,
I am surprised at you.
We finally have a President who cares for We the People.
Bush took us into a wrongful war, wrecked the economy -borrowed trillions from China, gave business a free wheel through deregulation, promoted crony owned detention centers and made us the most hated country in the world.
Now, President is doing all he can to fix the messes Bush got us into. I am confident he will fix the economy, healthcare and the immigration mess, while getting us out of the mess in the middle east and dignity and respect back the Presidency. And he is doing so, asking for all of our input.
In the meantime, the extreme right wing is clammoring to kill him and bring riots and a race war and hate crimes to the streets. That is why they want their AK 47s, I don't know why you want yours.
Americans want Peace and Humanity and Freedom and Equality. I think our President can do this!
God Bless America
God Bless President Obama
