I see the point, but Cramer is something else.

We are seeing some high profile people with platforms that reach millions seeming to lay the groundwork for the assination the President of the United States. Let's not mince words. That is the point of the Rich article. He sums it up with: "This kind of rhetoric, with its pseudo-Scriptural call to action, is toxic. It is getting louder each day of the Obama presidency. No one, not even Fox News viewers, can say they weren’t warned."

If something like that were to happen I think the US would be in real danger of dissolving. They are really playing with fire here.

I don't really know what the climate is in the US, I don't live there. It's easy for me to pull out an article or 2 on the subject... but things are exaggerated all the time... journalists need fodder for articles and editorials.

I watched Fox all during the elections and for a while was convinced that Obama could never win. I was happy to be proven wrong. So what's the deal with this hate mongering.... do you all think it's really having an effect on the crazies?

And what do you think CNN, CBS, MSNBC, NY Times, etc. are? For too many years only the far left has had a voice, enough was enough.

Over 75% of the country considers themselves to be conservative, and the majority needed a counterbalance to the massive liberalism of the media.
