On The Rise


What's been happening on the rightwing since President Obama's inauguration?

Right-wing extremism is being systematically fed by the conservative media and political establishment.
It must be met with resistance but more importantly, we need to organize our communities against any such encroachment.

When conservative rightwing groups set up shop, there is a correlated rise in "extremist" rightwing/racist violence.
The Liberal attitude that everyone, no matter how intolerable or dangerous, deserves a voice is cowardice and naive.

Glenn Beck argued that the Nazi Party was "leftwing"; that "political correctness" led the committed white supremacist, James Von Brunn, to shoot a security guard at the Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC; and that ultimately President Barack Obama is the one responsible for the violence because his "Socialistic" policies are engendering widespread anger.
I wonder if Bush would have been to blame for any radical 'violence' done under his terms. Those who claim protest was immoral, wrong, and should be fought and discouraged now claim that violent insurrection is valid means of political action... but only in one direction.

They won't be the only force on the rise.
The ungovernable force is rising.
