Glad they got him.

Hope they find the terrorist tea bag groups that hate our President, our Country, our Government, and our Middle Class soon ...

Interesting. Hey, just for fun, let's speculate how this story would be covered had Murray not been threatened by another American but by like, al-Qaeda?

I'm just sayin'. Is it different? I dunno, maybe?

Fucking idiot. It's just a piece of legislation, it ain't worth ten years in federal prison. But if you take people like Glenn Beck seriously, then I guess maybe it is.

My number's blocked too, but that doesn't mean I'm dumb enough to think nobody can trace the call. I agree with everyone else - this guy's terminally stupid.

Any word on what his opinion of the Chihuly museum is?

Throw the book at this piece of shit. Let these people know that threats against elected officials will not be tolerated.

Well, this idio - er, patriot has a point. Health Care Reform HAS been a disaster for him. Now, he's probably gonna owe a shit-ton of $$, get tossed in the hoosegow AND have to punk for some 300 lb. lifer nicknamed "pig-fucker".

And NONE of this would have happened if'n Senator Murray hadn't gotten in bed with that Commie/Pinko/Nazi Obama and his Socialistic Health Care Reform scam.

Self-fulfilling prophecy - it's what keeps the wing-nuts goin'!

I wonder if the target looked like the ones Sarah Palin put on her map of targets.

And now the federal government and tax payers gets to foot the bill for any health problems he develops while in prison for the next ten years.

It's kinda common practice when posting long quotes to cite their source ... I'm pretty surprised this is the second post I've seen in the last hour that didn't bother.

How pathetic. This poor dumb slob bought the insurance industry propaganda hook, line and sinker, and has now most likely ruined what's left of his pathetic life.

The Federal Prison System has some of the best subsidized healthcare around. That'll give him conniptions.

These people won't stop until they've killed someone. And April is a nasty month for violence being perpetrated by right wing wack jobs.

Someone should get a video camera and ask him why specifically he opposes the legislation, and post the almost certainly rambling, uninformed stupidity on YouTube with the rest.

@14,

It may still be cheaper than paying for his Medicare.

Well, I'm certainly glad the state issued him a concealed weapons permit.

Oh, it's probably a pretty safe bet that they've already revoked it.

Can we take away his socialized medicine? I think the best punishment for these people is to take away medicare. Not allow then access to ANY government help or healthcare at all. See how well he fares. I mean, that's what these people want, right?

Unfortunately, if we do that @25 it sort of blows the "rates will go down because of the larger pool of people paying in" scenario.

OTOH, we COULD make them wait in really long lines for elective procedures, you know, like they have to do all the time in Canadaland...

he'll turn out to be a very sad case: disabled, poor, and probably suffering early onset dementia. his kids will plead for understanding, saying he's just angry, and you'll all wind up feeling sorry that he's so deluded.

Stupid question, but couldn't he get off? Saying I "want" to do something is different than "I am going to" do something.

I dread the day when I have to start babysitting my own relatives to keep them from doing nonsense like this.

It's worth remembering that a jury of Charles Alan Wilson's actual peers would have no time for any insanity defense due to dementia or any nonsense like that. His only chance of getting into a mental heath facility instead of dying in Federal prison is if he can get a jury of urban liberals.
