Ever notice how most of the attacks on politicals in this country (maybe all?) in the past are against moderate and liberal members of the Democratic Party? Not much of a surprise when you consider that the corporate-owned media in this country employs monsters such as Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh who openly call for the murder of liberals in this country. Once there was a time when these outlets policed themselves and threw these jingoists out onto the street where they begged for book deals. But since the murder of the Three (John, Martin, and Robert) conservatives have regarded assassination as a tool for keeping liberal leaders from running for office.
I remember people telling me when I went door to door politicking for various candidates “Why vote? They only shoot the good ones.”
I think the solution is to keep electing the good ones, to press corporations to throw the ogres off the air and the newspapers, and to clamp down on domestic terrorism.
By the way, next time someone you know wrings her/his hands about John Edwards, start reciting this list. Republicans are to sex scandals what Democrats are to being assassinated. John McCain is no exception to the rule. After his wife was injured in a car accident, he divorced her to marry his longstanding mistress.
