What JW said. I'm interested if you can cite mainstream liberal figures who have advocated violence and vilified people of the opposing viewpoint the way the right wing pundits have.
It's a HUGE difference between, "This is a very very important issue and it's frustrating that there are people preventing it from being solved" vs. "These people are doing evil things and I'm going to use words like 'Naziism' 'evil' and 'vigilante'."
ETA: Or Glen Becks favorite rhetorical game, "I'm not saying X, but I think X." Like, "I'm not saying Obama's health proposals are going to lead to Eugenics in America, but Obama's health proposals are Eugenics in America."
