Death threats against the Romneys
Posted: Oct 17, 2012
Media Ignores Dozens of Post-Debate Death Threats Against Romney --by Nick Nolte Man alive, can you imagine the media reaction if in 2008 Obama was this close to winning the presidency and dozens of citizens made public death threats against him? Between the tweets collected at Twitchy and Info Wars, the Secret Service will have plenty to keep them busy for the next few weeks. But the media has shown no interest whatsoever in what is a legitimate story. The corrupt media's ignoring it for two reasons. First off, they just don't care about death threats against Republicans. What you have there is a sort of depraved indifference. Secondly, reporting on death threats against Romney will make him a sympathetic character, and three weeks from an election, there's no way in the world the media will allow that to happen. Everyday Americans in the form of Tea Partiers garner all kinds of brutal media attention if they use the word "socialist." Everyday Americans in the form of Obama supporters taking to Twitter to threaten the life of a potential president and to foment a violent atmosphere against him garner absolutely no attention. Regardless of the outcome, after the election, the media's going to try and rehabilitate itself. We cannot allow that to happen. ;
Half a story is no story at all. BOTH candidates - have received increased death threats.
[ In Reply To ..]Half a story also kinda sorta renders the rant part of your comment moot, since your outrage seems (how shall I put this?) rather lopsided. Maybe that explains the missing link in your post.

Pretty much goes with the territory when - youre in a position of power.

Do you have ANY idea - RC
[ In Reply To ..]How many times I've heard someone comment that they want Obama to be assassinated?
I've even seen people on this board say they'd like to kick him, punch him, etc.
You think Romney is the only one getting threats???
How is this bias, again?

It might be that Putin is bluffing, of course, but if so it would seem very foolish on his part if he had to back down - and I don't think he'd paint himself into that kind of a corner. He's not a fool. Even so, it still shouldn't be a back-page story IMHO, because this goes along with the polls showing that the Russian populace has been "educated" by their government to believe that the United States is their greatest enemy. We haven't had this kind of overt ...
