Bill Clinton Incites Violence With Allegations of Tea Party Extremism!

At Fox News, "Bill Clinton Warns Tea Party Anger Could Incite Right-Wing Extremism":

Former President Bill Clinton warned Friday that the anger some members of the Tea Party movement express about higher taxes and the size of government could feed the same right-wing extremism that led to the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995, which killed 168 people and injured hundreds more.

"Before the bombing occurred, there was a sort of fever in America," Clinton said at a symposium commemorating the 15th anniversary of the bombing. "Meanwhile, the fabric of American life had been unraveling. More and more people who had a hard time figuring out where they fit in, it is true that we see some of that today."

The loosely organized Tea Party movement burst onto the scene last year with thousands of Americans protesting financial bailouts and what they saw as too much government spending. Since then, the movement has become increasingly political as members are choosing candidates across the country aligned with their conservative views against lawmakers they want to defeat in the November elections.

On Friday, Clinton appeared to draw implicit parallels between Tea Partiers -- who are accused by some critics of espousing racist and radical views -- and the far-right militia veterans that carried out the 1995 attack on the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City.

"This Tea Party movement can be a healthy thing if they're making us justify every penny of taxes we raised and every dollar of public money we spend," Clinton said. "But when you get mad, sometimes you wind up producing exactly the reverse result of what you say you are for."
And at ABC News, "Rush Limbaugh, Bill Clinton Square Off: Who's Encouraging Domestic Terror? Former President Worries Anti-Obama Rancor Could Turn Violent; Limbaugh Shoots Back."

Obviously, it's the Democratic-left fanning the flames with constant allegations of racism, spitting, violence, etc., and the MSM just plays along to stokes the embers. It's ridiculous, but we'll remember in November.

  1. When the dems trot out Slick to demonize the T.E.A. people then you know how much affect they are having. It is somewhat humorous to watch the Left trying to create racism et al because it doesn't really exist for the vast majority of the T.E.A. movement so they have to "crash." Actually quite instructive.
    My hope is that the left keeps on trying to demonize these people because it has and will only make them stronger and paint the left as fools. Just as the left is providing "teflon" for Palin they are providing themselves as the real "agent provocateurs."
    The left has to be some of the poorest thinkers in the world because they are beset with stupidity and a desire to "hoist themselves on their on petards."
    I just love this stuff. Why stop your opponents from doing damage to themselves.

  2. This is very disappointing. Where are his words of caution regarding the violent left wing propagandists?
