OMG. Want to hear some of the threatening voicemails Stupak received?

:grr:

What is written below is nothing compared to the audio contained in the link.

"Congressman Stupak, you baby-killing mother f***er... I hope you bleed out your a**, got cancer and die, you mother f***er," one man says in a message to Stupak.

"There are millions of people across the country who wish you ill," a woman says in a voicemail, "and all of those thoughts that are projected on you will materialize into something that's not very good for you."

CBS News also obtained copies of faxes sent to Stupak, which include racial epithets used in reference to President Obama and show pictures of nooses with Stupak's name.

1. That's because he is a poser. had he voted straight YES, without the fuss, he

would not be getting this crap.

[Hello_Kitty]

3. I agree that Stupak is a putz but he didn't do anything to deserve death threats.

Enough with the victim-blaming shit.

[county worker]

5. Blame the victim much?

[CBR]

7. Oh please.... nt

[Fleshdancer]

9. regardless of how he voted, he doesn't deserve this

these people are batshit insane.

[Bitwit1234]

10. I bet there are a lot of congress people who are getting phone

calls and threats. Maybe not as violent but this just goes to show you the violent hateful character of these tea bags and radical republicans.

And they try to tell us they are not. I say each be taken seriously and if they can find them at least arrest them and cause them trouble. I think it is against the law to threaten people. And they have them on tape and written so it should be easy to find them.

[cali]

11. what a stinking pile of shit you just deposited.

[theothersnippywshrub]

16. Well put. Restrained but clear, concise and accurate. n/t

[whathehell]

24. "Restrained"?

:rofl:

[blondeatlast]

21. +1. nt

[blondeatlast]

20. Well, bless your little heart. (with a decidedly Southern drawl)

Blaming the victim is not enlightened, but you go right on ahead if it helps.

[proud2BlibKansan]

28. Cleaver voted straight yes, is not a poser and yet he was spit on

Same with Lewis and Clyburn.

[Whisp]

29. you are a bonehead.

what about all the other people that are getting threats. do you think they deserve that too.

shame on you, you fucking idiot.

[thereismore]

31. For the record, I did not say nor implied that he DESERVED it. And I do not

deserve to be called "a fucking idiot" for it. What I meant was this: By his posing, he made himself a hero of the anti-abortion movement. They started to expect everything from him, and when he finally voted yes, they unleashed their anger at him (and others too). So again, had he voted yes from the beginning, they would not be as angry at him as they are now. Savvy? And I deserve an apology from you specifically.

[Whisp]

34. what about the others that were threatened? you owe all of them an apology. N/T

[thereismore]

35. You don't know when to quit, do you. I was talking specifically about Stupak because

the vitriol he got was especially magnified by the fact that he raised the hopes of the right-wing crowd of killing the bill, but ended up letting them down. He is unique in that respect, and you are unique in your stubborn blindness. Now I've told you the second time what I meant. I don't really care if you understand, so please just move on to another "fucking idiot" - this one isn't impressed by your intellect.

[JVS]

40. Yeah. Playing with fire is dangerous.

[thereismore]

45. Thank you. Finally someone understood what I meant. I got so much grief for this post... nt

The guy was riding a tiger.

[butterfly77]

2. There is a tape...

on Huffingtonpost.

[etherealtruth]

4. Those anti abortion psychos are clearly dangerously deranged

My hope is that law enforcement aggressively pursues this.

[frazzled]

6. Jeebus, these are the supposedly pious people committed to life?

That was truly shocking and offensive and heartbreaking.

[cali]

13. well said.

[Tesha]

15. Those are the people *ON HIS SIDE* of his favorite pet issue.

He should be appreciative of them since he's, more-or-less, one of
them. He was willing to allow thousands of needless deaths a year to
support these folks so I have no real pity for him now. He's willing
to deny women basic reproductive rights to support these folks.

What's the phrase? "You lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas."

27. Sorry Cali, I have no interest in defending collaborators. And that's precisely...

...what Stupak is.

Tesha

[Kaleva]

32. He isn't one of them. Never has been.

[Tesha]

36. Of course not. He just votes in their favor on that issue and was willing...

...to hold health care for *ALL AMERICANS* hostage
to that one issue.

No, he's nothing like them.

Tesha

[Kaleva]

38. The Republicans had no intnetion of voting for the health care bill

even if the Stupak language would have been inserted. Stupak called out the Republicans in his speech Sunday night on their efforts to use the Stupak-Pitts Amendment to scuttle the health care reform bill.

[Tesha]

39. True, but completely irrelevant to the point I made.

Stupak was willing to hold all of us hostage to
support his anti-abortion position and his anti-
abortion constituents.

Tesha

[Kaleva]

41. But you failed to make your point that he is one of them.

Stupak negotiated with the Dem leadership till he got the best deal he could. The Republicans made no effort to negotiate.

[Tesha]

44. You may believe as you wish.

I believe that "Democrats" like Stupak are exactly
why people have no idea what the Democratic "brand"
represents because when "Democrats" are willing to
hold health care for all hostage to try (successfully, BTW)
to get anti-abortion actions written into law, then the claim
that "Democrats support choice" clearly isn't true.

[DeschutesRiver]

22. +100. nt

[guitar man]

8. delete

[chill_wind]

12. kicking for cold clear-eyed exposure.

[WeekendWarrior]

14. BACKFIRE

I wish no ill will toward the guy other than he loses his seat in Congress, and I am truly disgusted by these backward idiots who are threatening him, but I'm betting he's wishing he'd just stayed in the shadows now.

[theothersnippywshrub]

17. How very republican. The party of Lincoln has become the party of John Wilkes Booth. n/t

[OneGrassRoot]

18. Wow, that's a good line!

:applause:

Pathetic, but true.

:hi:

[theothersnippywshrub]

25. It is good isn't it? That's why I stole it from another DUer some time ago. n/t

[tallahasseedem]

23. I feel horrible for him...

he shouldn't have to go through this.

[NotThisTime]

37. I agree because of his antics he isn't my favorite, but seriously he doesn't deserve this at all

I feel terrible for him. He might have pulled a stunt I don't like, but good god, the shit that's come out in these messages to him specifically is vile, I don't know what would possess anyone to do what the right wing is doing....

[tammywammy]

26. That's horrible

As for the lady that says "ll of those thoughts that are projected on you will materialize into something that's not very good for you" that's completely untrue. I find those that wish ill on someone like this, are the ones that tend to have miserable lives. Karma.

What's even worse, is these people probably call themselves "Christians." There's nothing Christian about saying awful things and wishing for bad things to happen to another person.

tammywammy - Christian

[Raschel]

30. Of course the people threatening death are "pro life".

[goclark]

33. They are totally crazy now ~ we are talking Full Moon Insane

Something has got to be done about this crap.
Can the head of the FBI make some kind of statement?

All I hear on my TV ( other than Keith and Rachel) is the F word that Biden said.

These are serious times.

[spanone]

42. bwahahahaa...and this is from a pro-lifer????? what a bunch of sick fucks

[adigal]

43. I bet these people call themselves good Christians

Soldiers of Christ and all that - just doing his work on earth, protecting the unborn, making sure the born don't get healthcare.

I just don't understand how the cognitive dissonance doesn't make their heads spin??? Love the unborn, hate the born.
