I've noticed this too.

They aren't exactly batting a thousand in DC these days.

Let's also keep in mind this was the guy who was using metaphors for years about Dr. Tiller and look what happened...

My god, would you call the cops?

Friggin' drama queens
Right, so saying someone should be thrown into a harbor is saying she should be defeated. And Boxing is sport and entertainment that is based on violent confrontation. Bad analogy.

Once again, you failed to explain what Communism is. Chances are you don't and you just heard it from someone as an insult towards Obama or a politician you don't like now you mimic it.

You realize military trials go through due process too, right?

How is America less safe? No one has EVER broken out of a federal maximum security prison. In fact, he's probably less likely to escape there than he would in an unprotected 3rd world prison.
You listen to Chris Matthews wayyyy to much.

Communism - Google it, you can find it without my help.

Yup, these terrorist will get due process rights, the same and you and I which is wrong.

Its not the escape I am worried about at all.

Wait and see, you will find out in time the mockery this will be.

Mockery is an understatement.

No. The point is your too clueless to understand the fact nobody was implying Pelosi should be killed.

1. I don't watch nor listen to Chris Matthews.

2. You obviously don't know what communism is

3. I'm convinced you want America to fail. Even if I hated Bush, I always hoped for the best. You'd rather see America fail just so you could say "I told you so".

Well I certainly would tune in to watch something like that but I don't consider myself unpatriotic. I don't like Pelosi and her strongarm tactics.

IMO..this "anti-American" is being thrown around too freely these days.

Even if he wasn't implying it, it's one of the worst and distasteful analogies I've ever heard.

How did this turn into Pelosi getting killed ?
Who's going off the deep end here ?
