Quips, Quotes and Tweets – 8/26/10

The Leftist Tailspin: When in doubt, threaten to murder them:
  Apparently in hopes of upping their game heading into November, the Left has decided that the best way to win is by, you know, offing the opposition.
  The movement has proven to be incredibly powerful throughout this primary season - more powerful than I think even the protesters and activists themselves even believed. As a result, the Left is in full panic mode. They have been so busy demonizing the liberty movement since its inception that they have no idea what to do now that we have voter support. They don’t have a backup plan. Their voter turnout and morale are significantly down, and they’re trying to minimize impending disaster in November. Democrats are spinning wildly to give the base a shred of hope so a few of them bother showing up to the polls.

Going into the general, almost every one of these candidates is poised to beat the Democrat on November 2nd. The Left is stunned… and as a result they’re upping the level of vitriol against the people it perceives as threats.
  FreedomWorks and Dick Armey receive dozens of threatening and harassing calls and emails each day. Many imply violence and use of weapons… As we get closer to the election we expect the harassment to increase.”

"Evidently, nothing excites a liberal Democrat more than the pornography of excessive federal spending," said Rep. Dan Lungren, a California Republican. "I can tell you, that is not what people want here."
