Let's look at the history... (Added note)

Ashley Todd, the McCain volunteer who claimed that an assailant carved a B into her face, appears to have mental problems. So why was this story so believable?

Because it fits into a pattern. Among the many comments which I did not allow to be published, YET ANOTHER death threat from an Obot came my way this morning. That makes four. Having been on the receiving end of endless verbal violence from Obama's monstrous mind-controlled zombies, I remain inclined to believe reports of physical violence.

Here's one of the previous threats. (Because of the way Blogger's comment moderation system works, comments disappear into the cyber-void if I do not choose to publish them; I cannot copy, paste and save them.):

Do the species a favor and kill yourself. Better yet, tell me where you live and I'll come do it for you.

This morning's example of the genre involved a reference to firearms. Rather unimaginative, I think. At any rate, it certainly did little to convince me that Obama followers are a peaceful lot.

By the way -- no-one has denied or doubted the story of Rog Coverly, the McCain headquarters manager in Seminole County, Florida whose house was shot up.

I heard from one clown who opined that Ashley's bizarre behavior means that we should toss out all of the "lies" concerning Tony Rezko and the Illinois Combine. This stance reminded me of the case of one Binjamin Wilkomirski, a fantasist who claimed to be a Holocaust survivor. When his fables were punctured (he was born in 1941, in Switzerland, where he stayed throughout his childhood), Holocaust revisionists pointed to the incident as "proof" that all evidence of the genocide was fabricated!

In the aftermath of the Ashley Todd story, many Obots are mimicking those revisionists. They forget that the fantasist was believed because the fantasy fit an all-too-real pattern of behavior.

Wilkomirski fooled so many people precisely because everyone knew what the Nazis had done. Similarly, Ashley proved persuasive because the Obots have an undeniable history of behaving like -- well, like Nazis. One day, the Obama movement will be considered every bit as aberrant and monstrous as the McCarthy movement.

Can we forget that Keith Olbermann explicitly called for Hillary's murder, on the air (anyone who interprets his plain words any other way is a fool) -- and kept his job? Can we forget the other threats against Hillary Clinton? Can we forget the death threats against voices within the PUMA movement? Should we forget the ugliness and threats suffered by Paula Abeles?

Should we forget that when radio host Tavis Smiley received death threats after mildly criticizing Obama? Should we forget that Donna Brazile threatened "There will be blood" if Obama did not get the nomination? Are we to forget this...?

“African-American superdelegates are being targeted, harassed and threatened,” said Rep. Emanuel Cleaver II (D-Mo.), a superdelegate who has supported Clinton since August. Cleaver said black superdelegates are receiving “nasty letters, phone calls, threats they’ll get an opponent, being called an Uncle Tom.

“This is the politics of the 1950s,” he complained. “A lot of members are experiencing a lot of ugly stuff. They’re not going to talk about it, but it’s happening.”

Rep. Diane E. Watson (D-Calif.), a black lawmaker and Clinton backer, said the intense lobbying for Obama would not alter her vote.

“I’ve gotten threatening mail,” Watson said.

Should we forget what happened to radio host Steve Corbett?

In the thousands of emails I’ve received in the year that “Corbett” has been on the air, I have not received a single death threat - until yesterday.

“We will kill you when Obama become PRESIDENT OF USA.,” the email reads. “You would see!!!”

Most death threats do not result in death.

But some do.

What makes this threat to kill me all the more mysterious is that it appears to have been sent through Barack Obama’s official campaign website – barackobama.com – the website that sends me official announcements of Obama’s campaign comings and goings.

Not once...not once has Barack Obama denounced this repeated pattern of behavior. Indeed, he has encouraged thuggishness in his followers, especially when he gave Hillary the middle finger during a public speech as his sick followers cheered.

I, for one, will not forget the violent language repeatedly encountered on the pro-Obama blogs. In the past, I've been able to give only a sampling of atrocities repeated hourly. Here's a brief sampling of those samplings, offered here as a reminder. (Use the search engine above to find the original posts.)

On the hacking of Sarah Palin's private email account:

"SHE DESERVED IT. What she's buried under her double-wide would be interesting."

From the official Obama website, re: Hillary:

"Just slit her throat, lock her in a car boot, and drive the car into river in West Virginia. Ain’t gonna let no whore screw with the man"

More on Hillary:

She is OFFICIALLY a fucked up human piece of trash.

Re, Bill Clinton, just before his convention speech:

Hey Bill:

FUCK YOU. HARD.

Get the fuck over yourself....

Quit being a sore fucking loser about this and get your shit together. If your loser wife makes even the slightest fucking misstep during her speech tonight, or if you half-ass your way through your speech tomorrow ("Waaahhh, I don't wanna talk about national security!"), the both of you will be on the permanent shit list for the Democratic Party.

You, sir, are unquestionably, A DOUCHEBAG and a criminal one at that.

Bush Clinton crime family must be eradicated.

On the PUMAs:

"They're all crazy cunts,taze them all!!!!!!"

The menses makes the ladies crazy and unhinged. That's why we can never have a woman as president. They'd get all PMS-ish and start a nuclear war.

On Hillary:

The good news is if Clinton wins (steals) the presidency she will likely be assassinated within a week. She is a total lying gas bag hag and deserves to [go to] her maker for what will only be described as a truly karmic moment which will last for all eternity.

"The Clintons shoud have been arrested long ago; Travelgate, Whitewater, Vince Foster's supposed suicide"

"Hillary is a liar and a cunt"

She’s a monster who just won’t die. In fact, she really should just die. You can buy a urinal target with her face on it to express what you really think of her. OMG she’s got claws! She’s crazy. In fact, she’s a lunatic. She’s petty and vindictive and entitled. She’s a washed-up old hag. She’s “everybody’s first wifestanding outside probate court.” She’s a “scolding mother.” She’s shrill… shrill… shrill. She can’t take it when people are mean to her. She’s a “hellish housewife.” She’s Tanya Harding. She CAN’T be President, what with the mood swings and the menses.Any woman who votes for her is voting with her vagina, not her brain. Women only like Hillary because she’s a fellow Vagina-American. And because they vote with their feelings. Frankly, anyone who still thinks we need “feminine role models” should get over it and move on, already. Oh, and men who supporther are castratos in the eunuch chorus

As readers know, there is plenty more where that came from.

By the way... I note that the O-monsters refused to comment on this part of my previous story:

Obama reversed himself on FISA, which means that he wants the power to tap the phones of all opponents. In Missouri, the Obama movement used Sheriffs and prosecutors to put together a "truth squad" to intimidate critics of Barack Obama. Obama makes no secret of his desire to erect a massive "civilian security force." And the RAND Corporation was tasked with considering the best ways to implement a new domestic intelligence agency.

These ingredients -- a cult of personality, new tools of state repression, unfettered snooping -- all point in a dangerous direction. The threat can be reduced to two words: Power and ego.

Added note: Most people are presuming that Ashley Todd has mental health issues. That presumption may be true, although only a professional psychiatrist or psychologist can make the diagnosis. But should we not make the same presumption of mental illness in the case of Dana Milbank, who invented the story that McCain supporters shouted "Kill him" when Sarah Palin mentioned the name of Barack Obama? The Secret Service determined the story to be false, yet the progs continue to treat it as gospel. Yet Milbank continues to earn money, while Ashley has earned only ignominy. Double standard!
