There were incidents last summer of pro-Obama activists actually assaulting anti-Obama activists (at town-hall related events). Thankfully, they were few, and appeared to have died down.

It's almost an apology for Hitler, which I have a very, very hard time accepting. In all my readings, I've never heard that he was lazy or didn't get out of bed, not that any of these things had to do with his diabolical evilness.Leslie Parsleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13743778482517634823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8125940219291633674.post-76085368357100136352010-01-27T18:15:05.281-06:002010-01-27T18:15:05.281-06:00Don't worry Holte, that's next on the Supr...Don't worry Holte, that's next on the Supreme Court's agenda.Beekeepers Apprenticehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03147256400096114177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8125940219291633674.post-48719191149245666122010-01-27T16:20:32.147-06:002010-01-27T16:20:32.147-06:00Holte,
