I think you're being deliberately obtuse, Pete. Obviously, if these people were actually telling people to commit specific acts of terror and violence they'd be arrested. Instead, they tell their followers that FEMA may be building concentration camps for conservatives (Glenn Beck) or that their followers ought ought to be "armed and dangerous" (Michelle Bachmann) or put crosshairs over the names of political opponents on their web sites (Sarah Palin).

Plant enough seeds like those and violence is inevitable. By the way, did you know that the authorities arrested a man yesterday who was sitting in his car near the airport the President used yesterday? He had a weapon and a police scanner.

Kinda. But man, there was no inflammatory retoric when Bush was Pres, right

And we've only got one real leader there that I see and a small one at that, and I kinda agree with her [armed and dangerous]. Crosshairs can mean what you want. "concentration camps for conservatives"? Aren't those the 'tennis courts' that Bush built for libs?

No call to arms?

Of course there was inflammatory rhetoric. That's politics as usual. I'm talking about actual incitement to violence.

Exactly.

I still haven't seen an actual incitement to violence.

First off, Ayers is neither an elected Democratic politician or an important and influential spokesman for the Left. For all I know he may not even be a Democrat. Secondly, that's not an incitement to anything. It's an opinion about something he did 40 years ago.

How can you even have a conversation with people like this?
