Last time we had this kind of lopsided democrat control (early 1990s) we saw all kinds of antigovernment finatics whom eventually bombed an IRS building. Anybody think we are headed down that road again? Heck, this administration is farther left than any we've had in the last 70 years.

No matter how "far left" you think the administration is, the acts of Tim McVeigh should never be justified or condoned nor are any of his followers. That being said, we may very well have prevented a similar tragedy when the Michigan Christian Militia (or whatever they were called) were pinched.

You mean like Joe Stack and the IRS building? However, he was a lefty.

hussein obama is buddies with a bomber who said he is not sorry for what he did and feels he did not do enough. Maybe he will feel inspired by hussein obama's distaste for America.

Why are Republicans always so happy and excited at the thought of bombings or attacks on America? That is all they can ever think about.

It is like they simply can't stop thinking about it and it bring sheer joy to them. They hint at it and talk about it. Just take a look at the threads here. Sick.

Who's excited? It's usually the rabid left wingers that always bring uo Oklahoma

Moor, Joseph Stack was anti taxes, anti-Catholic church, anti-unions, etc. How exactly does that qualify as being a liberal?

I don't see any OKCs in the future. It was pointless carnage and an attack on mainstream America, not the government. Terrorists have learned from Iraq and elsewhere to target the top elected officials, kidnap and kill their families, etc. Take Mexico as an example: would you want to be the major of Juarez? Using Mexico again, my greatest concern by far are the drug armies there, not right or left extremists here. Our likely future is IEDs against our Border Patrol and National Guard. Our militias are fellow Americans and valuable allies in the coming troubles.

Stack was anti-big business, believed that the health industry was murdering thousands and needed reform, condemned health reform obstructionists, considered himself a proletariat, was anti-capitalist, and paid homage to Marx.

It's pretty difficult to force some of these folks like Stack into neat little boxes. I think some of them are so far right or left that they end up in a no-mans-land somewhere in between. That's probably at least partially why they usually feel so alienated.
