Alright, half-tongue-in-cheek poll, partly in response to the poll by pseudo-conservative Cobern-2012, partly because we have had a rash of right wing terrorism lately (most notably the murder of George Tiller and the shooting at the holocaust museum - more of them here and I do wonder if we are going to see a new surge of McVeighs in the near future.  (not that that should stop progress, contrary to the stawman put up by some of the pseudo-conservatives, we do not reward the actions of terrorists.

Probably talk radio. It has a wide reach and the fanatical tendency to grab onto ridiculous labels proudly, like "right wing extremist."

     I call shenanigans on this poll. Clearly 70% of voters have yet to learn how much of a role street mimes play in the recent surge in right-wing terrorism.

Other- Their hasn't been any particular or unusual rise in "right-wing" terrorism. Van Brunn wasn't even a right winger to begin with as he was just some random nutjob.

It was the goddamn street mimes with their inability to effectively vocalise their issues and positions. They hate Muricah, damn it.

You left out "Obama's election".  Democrats being elected elected brings out the inner crazy in the Right Wing.  Remember the '90s?

Of the options given, street mimes.  That's how the upper echelon communicates with the foot soldiers.

states is right.  In fact van brun was a left winger as Rush limbaugh catagorically PROVED on his show.  He was planning attacks on CONSERVATIVE publications and figures.  And he was very very anti- business just like the democRAT party.

The liberal media could convince you sheep that Stalin and Lenin were conservatives too.  So sad.

Okay first to the liberals...I want to extend a hand to you guys and PROMISE you that if you do a liberal only poll I will stay out of the voting and the commenting.  All I ask is that you respect that this poll is for the conservatives here and yes for all conservatives regardless of R, C, or even the few conservative Ds here okay?

I want to take a poll of the conservative mind set here and see what they think and if I am in sinc with them on these things.

Of course I regard ALL of these as threats to america but which one has contributed to our lessening as a nation or if you care to think about the future which one will cause the most damage to us if we dont stop it?

Thank you all very much for your participation if you are eligable and if you are not thank you very much for being respectfull enough not to vote.  I appreciate it.

He was a 9/11 truther whack job. He had child porn on his computer. He hated Bush, hated conservative talk show hosts and hated the left wing equally. Brunn is just some dude who's pissed at the world for whatever insane reason. Putting the insane into some sort of political wing is not only stupid but intellectually dishonest.

Guys let's just get to a compromise stance and call this terrorism. It doesn't matter who did it, terrorism is terrorism. In fact by labeling this "right wing terrorism", the media is only encouraging more right wing extremists to plot terrorist acts. The media needs to stop treating right wingers like terrorists (that goes double for MSNBC). I always thought right wingers were kind of cucko, but the kind of attitude some newstations have taken towards them are just dick moves.

BTW, if you take the time to look at my social score you'll find I'm definitely not a far right winger.

Stalin was very much a conservative by the 1950s.

Again, not much to say about Brunn dead, he was just a random nut. Do we need to keep going around in circles?
