Only violence on the right?

Tks to Fox News for actually doing a great story on the supposed ownership of violence on the right. I have heard the tired old statements from my friends on the right that complain about the tea party movement and how it is inciting violence against Obama. Check out this story on the Fox News website that takes great pains to explain that George Bush was "was hanged in effigy, burned in effigy, compared to Hitler, called the Antichrist, a human abortion, and made the subject of numerous sustained death threats for about seven years."

Violence has no real claim to the right just as truth has no moral claim on the left. For everyone who is so willing to see threats from the other side and don't police their own politics are charlatans and fakes.
