Okay, I get it Democrats, you don't like Republicans because they oppose your social ideology - so just have your leftist media promote violence against them?.. Are you really showing your true colors (SEIU purple?) as the progressive and tolerant political party which you claim to be ?
Two of the most popular liberal news sites are calling for violence against Republicans for obstructing the radical agenda of President Barack Obama.
CNN and Huffington Post have each published op-eds this past week by regular contributors with headlines that explicitly call for Obama to use violent gangland tactics against his political opponents.
CNN published a column by Roland Martin on February 11 with the headline, Time for Obama to go ‘gangsta’ on GOP.
Martin concluded the article with a plea for Obama to emulate the violent tactics of the Prohibition-era Chicago mob boss Al Capone.
Obama’s critics keep blasting him for Chicago-style politics. So, fine. Channel your inner Al Capone and go gangsta against your foes. Let ‘em know that if they aren’t with you, they are against you, and will pay the price.
The Huffington Post followed-up with their own call for gangland violence against Republicans with the publication on February 14 of a column by David Bourgeois with the title, Obama Better Start Breaking Kneecaps.

both those terms seemed to imply "get tough" rather than "get violent" to me.
they know not to start that crap on conservatives. who do you think it was buying up all those 9mms, AR15s and AK47s last year? It sure wasn't the Code Pink gurlz.

Nobody listens to these new stations anymore. I don't think anyone is there listening to their advice, so I think we are safe.

This post is stupid. Both of these articles were opinion pieces and therefore not "the media". Rush Limbaugh has said some rather inflammatory things as well has he not?

Both are in fact opinions, however they were in fact distributed in highly visible main-stream-media forums... it is what it is.

Have you ever heard of reading comprehension? You will need to practice it for your SATs. I have not read the Huffington piece, but the Martin article on CNN had nothing to do with violence. Based on how far off the mark you are on Martin, I'm sure it is the same for Huffington. This Current article is worse than the National Enquirer. If the truth doesn't satisfy your personal politics, don't manufacture BS, please.

That is very funny because Democrats were saying the same thing 6 years ago when Bush was in the White House. Perhaps there really is no difference between the two parties, they both run the show when they are there.

It's sad that even when you mention Republicans are bad too, the Democrats go ballistic. Both parties have turned against us, if you can't see that...there's no sense debating with you. Good post, ahiguy, maybe opinion pieces but as you said, being promoted by highly visible mainstream. Those are not the only pieces, I have noticed others, threatening Republicans is becoming sort of a fad. I am completely non-partisan so I kind of get my kicks watching the blindness in both parties.

Right... couldnt be the conservatives who adamantly oppose ANYTHING even proposed by a "liberal" no matter how good of an idea it is. How about we end the partisan bullshit and actually get something done?

You are unbelievable. You answered my call for bipartisanship with a lame partisan response.Congratulations!/sarcasm
Its people like YOU who are destroying this country and not the "liberal" boogeymen that reside in your head. The world just isnt as simple and black and white as youd like it to be.
