I don't think he's similar to your average Republican and I haven't said as much. He's a FRINGE right winger. There are fringe left-wingers as well.

His anti-government rants on youtube, the fact that the feds are investigating his connection to right wing fringe groups like American Renaissance, his anti-immigration rants, the fact that he targeted a Democratic Congresswoman... etc.

You really need me to link you the views of Republican leaders on the government?

I can tell you my views

Small Federal Government. One like the founding fathers wanted.

Representation of the people and not self-motivated representation

Less spending

No Government Healthcare.

Welfare for wounded vets, the elderly only. Or as temporary help. Not for those too lazy to feed themselves

How would you label me?

Who received hundreds of death threats in 2009 and have to have a security detail after a controversial ruling involving illegal immigrants.


The killing of U.S. District Judge John M. Roll comes two years after he received death threats while he presided over a $32 million civil-rights lawsuit filed by illegal immigrants against an Arizona rancher.

When Roll ruled the case could go forward, U.S. Marshal David Gonzales said in 2009 that talk-radio shows cranked up the controversy and spurred audiences into making threats.

In one afternoon, Roll logged more than 200 phone calls. Callers threatened the judge and his family. They posted personal information about Roll online.

"It was unnerving and invasive. ... By its nature it has to be," Roll said, adding that they were encouraged to live their lives as normally as possible. "It was handled very professionally by the Marshals Service."

At the end of the month, Roll said four key men had been identified as threat makers.

and they found who was behind the threats right? Calling to voice displeasure is fine (even by the judge's own admission) but ones who go past that should be prosecuted (and were in this case).

this was your explanation to him being a right winger. And Amer Ren isn't a right-wing group it's a racist group

So what? The fact that he was frustrated by the Bush administration means what exactly?

There's a lot of people on the right that are/were frustrated by the Bush administration.

and a lot of right wing wackjobs that weren't "especially political?"

If there is a political motive, I bet we never find out. If he's going to try the insanity route, I'm sure his attorney is directing him not to discuss motive since that would indicate that he was capable of coherent thought.

You know right-winger and Republican aren't synonymous, right? Is this a difficult concept?

American Ren. is a right wing group. They're also racist. They're a FRINGE group. Again, I'm not saying everyone on the right is racist. I'm not saying they're representative of all conservatives. But, they come from the right fringe... I don't know how you can dispute that. The left has fringe organizations as well.
