GOP STILL PLAYING THE FEAR CARD

Today I heard state senator Al Melvin on a local wingnut radio talk show about his fear that America is sliding into "the abyss of socialism." I missed Crazy Michelle Bachmann on Hannity's radio show last Wednesday, but she also takes an extreme view:

Bachmann: Do we get into an inner tube and float 90 miles to some free country? There is no free country for us to repair to. That's why it's up to us now. The founders gave everything they had to give us this freedom. Now it's up to us to give everything we can to make sure that our kids are free, too. It's that serious. I hate to be dramatic, but--

Hannity: It's not -- you are not overstating this case,...

This kind of talk will most likely result in setting off some conservative lunatic who will kill some innocent people.
