Isn’t it interesting that your cultural conservatives, always whining about how they’re being repressed, repressed! seem to quite enjoy bringing the fascism themselves.

…I gotta find me some shades.
Via Pastor Dan, Focus on the Family - Dobson’s organization - tells us what will become of the U.S. by 2012 unless you follow God’s mandate to vote Republican:
Many of our freedoms have been taken away by a liberal Supreme Court and a Democratic majority in both the House and […]

OUTRAGED!!! REPUBLICANS ARE OUTRAGED!!!
Bashing the “elite” media as usual on Fox News last night, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich claimed that Saturday Night Live’s skits mocking Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin were “vicious” and a “total distortion of who Governor Palin is.” Gingrich said that some of the sketches, particularly one mocking reporters for pursuing unsubstantiated […]

National Republican Congressional Committee pulls its money out of the Bachmann race in Minnesota, leaving Queen Wingnut a-hurting. Meanwhile, the National Democratic Committee is pouring $1 million into the race.
I repeat: God simply doesn’t love me this much. But the idea that come election day I might be elated, and James Dobson infuriated? Priceless.

Git the shotgun, Martha:
“I don’t believe these polls,” said America Blanca, a 44-year-old small business owner from Miami who wore a red dress and was visibly pumped up by the rally. “Not one of them. Because it’s the kids answering the polls on the computers. Their parents are not home and they are answering and […]

Michelle Bachman: It’s all Chris Matthews’ fault!
“I did not say that Barack Obama was anti-American, nor do I believe Barack Obama is anti-American. He loves his country, just as everyone in this room does,” she told the crowd. “Nor did I call for an investigation of members of Congress for their pro-American or anti-American views. […]

This cannot possibly happen. God simply does not love me this much:

Tinklenberg has raised more than $800,000 in the aftermath of Bachmann’s comments and Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee communications director Jen Crider has called this a “$1 million mistake” on the part of the Republican incumbent.
The DCCC, sensing opportunity, began airing an ad hitting Bachmann […]

Go read Billmon. Excerpt:
With the prospect of a bone-crushing election defeat staring them full in the face, the diehard rump of the conservative movement is already busy fashioning a narrative to explain the dissolution of its world — the one that Ronald Reagan built and that George W. Bush (with an assist from Wall Street) […]

This is Ann Coulter with dyed-black hair Rep. Michelle Bachman, Republican (natch!) of Minnesota, talking about how all liberals have anti-American views and the media should investigate members of Congress to see if they’re “anti-America.”
Patriotism being the last refuge of a wingnut and all.
But nevermind that. Don’t even listen to the words; instead, watch the […]

Nice.
An ACORN community organizer received a death threat and the liberal activist group’s Boston and Seattle offices were vandalized Thursday, reflecting mounting tensions over its role in registering 1.3 million mostly poor and minority Americans to vote next month.
This is getting more brownshirt by the minute.

Stealing this entirely from Atrios. But:
Has the Republican base become the fringe?
Yes.
This has been another edition of simple answers to simple questions.
Update: John Cole makes the point even more forcefully:
In fact, you could cite dozens of examples of these racist, divisive, dillusiuonal attacks on Barack Obama and conclude that they are just elements of the […]

Sweet.
Update: More.
We’re big boys and girls who put ourselves out there and part of the job is tacking flack from both sides. Certainly I have heard complaints from Democrats about “the media” and have been accused of being too conservative. But I have never had the sense that a Democrat was going to get physical […]

Limbaugh: Because the Fox News All-Stars criticized McCain, however gently, they are now “elites.”
Anyone who doesn’t agree with the untrammelled awesomeness of the GOP candidate, whomever he might be, is an elitist.
Good, good.

This would be a Republican women’s group near Riverside, California:
The latest newsletter by an Inland Republican women’s group depicts Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama surrounded by a watermelon, ribs and a bucket of fried chicken, prompting outrage in political circles.
The October newsletter by the Chaffey Community Republican Women, Federated says if Obama is elected his image will […]

Republicans sure seem to think so.
Al Austin, a longtime, high-level Republican fundraiser from Tampa, today sent to his list of political contacts an e-mail containing a joke that refers to the assassination of Barack Obama.
When asked about the e-mail, Austin said it was a mistake and apologized and that he wouldn’t knowingly have circulated it. […]

Quick question. Who’s this:

Well, could be anyone. But it kinda looks like Obama, doesn’t it?
It’s meant to:

This is a flyer from the Virginia Republican Party. Yep - an official GOP mailer.
Obama - he evil! He look like evil!
It’s a real short ride from this to “kill him!” at the rallies.

And see, you shout “Kill him!” about Obama at a Palin rally, you might get yerself arrested:
The U.S. Secret Service is investigating a threatening remark directed at Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama during a political event in Scranton.
The agency followed up on a report in The Times-Tribune that a member of the crowd shouted, “Kill […]

Hilarious. So Christopher Buckley, whose father William F. Buckley founded the National Review, that bastion of conservatism, recently had the nerve - the nerve! - to endorse Obama.
Which, as any right-winger who actually opens his eyes and sees a reality that differs from the conservative line knows, will bring you boatloads of vitriolic hate mail […]
