As expected, GOP leaders are staring to incite (mainly racial) violence in relation to President Obama’s re-election bid:
A monthly newsletter published by the Greene County Republican Committee in Virginia is raising eyebrows for including a column in its March edition that calls for an “armed revolution” if President Barack Obama is elected to a second term …
[Editor McPHee warns]… that the consequences of not defeating Obama, a so-called “ideologue unlike anything world history has ever witnessed or recognized,” would be dire.
“[W]e shall not have any coarse [sic] but armed revolution should we fail with the power of the vote in November,” McPhee writes. “This Republic cannot survive for 4 more years underneath this political socialist ideologue.”
Here’s a PDF copy of the newsletter by the GreenCountyGOP.

Uh, this story is nearly a month old, Mr. Laden (the postdate on your own link shows that). Way to be on top of things!
Not that evidence matters, but Obama has not acted like a socialist while he’s been in office. Are they sure it’s politics and not race that’s got them wound up?
Don’t forget the guy who suggested people throw acid in the faces of democratic women
The parts you quote from that newsletter do not support your statement that they are inciting racial violence. I would suggest additional quotes to make it clear that race is on their minds. For example:
Wow. I’m pretty sure that would be considered a breach of the Public Order Act, here in the UK. Specifically because it’s inciting violence, and likely to lead to racial abuse.
Rot, you are right, it is weeks old! Thanks for pointing that out.
Still relevant, though.

Rub a dub dub, some guys in a tub !
Unfortunately, at least when people who aren’t brown, female, non-Christian, or left-leaning are concerned, the US has leaned so far in favor of the “allowing inciting violence” interpretation of “free speech” it’s basically a running joke.
Month-old stories! Freethought Blogs sure has some nerve, calling themselves a newspaper!
Oh wait
Huh, no crayon. I wonder who transcribed it for them?
Thank Greg – for posting this !!!
