It is okay to hate in your heart, but it is NOT okay to hate so much that you risk innocent lives. This is what that continuous low-level drum beat of hate of Obama produces:

No Contest Plea In Obama Tattoo Firebombing
February 4, 2010
SALINAS, Calif. -- A man suspected of firebombing a Monterey tattoo parlor after it refused to ink an offensive tattoo targeting President Barack Obama on his chest has pleaded no contest to arson charges.
According to the Monterey County District Attorney's Office, Nathan Augustine, 35, was arrested for the arson in October 2009.
Deputy District Attorney Douglas Matheson said Augustine had confessed to throwing a Molotov cocktail at Creative Visions, a tattoo parlor in Monterey, on July 13. He was also charged with and confessed to torching the Lattitudes restaurant in Pacific Grove on July 15th after he was turned down on a job application.
At the scene of the Monterey fire, investigators found vodka bottles converted into incendiary devices bearing the words "Russian Standard," a swastika, and a symbol similar to the British Union Jack with added diagonal lines through it in red ink handwriting.
Matheson said Augustine had visited Creative Visions and asked for a tattoo of a swastika and an image of President Obama overlaid with crosshairs.
"They refused to give it to him and he caused a little disturbance and left," he said.
Matheson said the arson cases began to crack open after Augustine was arrested in connection with a vandalism spree in Monterey. Between January and April 2009, a number of swastikas were painted around the city, along with the phrases "kill Obama" and "death to Obama."
A search of Augustine's home yielded numerous containers of lighter fluid, gloves similar to those found at Lattitudes and the symbol similar to the Union Jack with the added diagonal lines.
Augustine faces seven years in prison when he is sentenced March 12.>>>

((The idea that the poor and minorities could cause the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression by owning their own homes is little more than thinly disguised right wing racism.))
Oh please! You can't have it both ways. You blame Bush for the housing crisis.....yeah....Barney Frank and Dodd were completely innocent in the whole thing. Right.
Fannie and Freddie were contributors to Congress, spending millions to influence votes. While some Republicans also received financial contributions from the two institutions, most of the money went to Democrats. Top recipients of those campaign contributions were Barney Frank and Chris Dodd, the Chairmen of the Committees that should have been providing over site of the two financial giants. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were also among the top receipts of Fannie and Freddy campaign contributions.
You blame Bush for wanting minorities to own homes. But then you accuse the republicans of blaming the housing crisis on minorities and, as usual, call them racist.
Okay then....So.....should we or should we not have helped minorities get homes? Maybe we shouldn't have helped any of them...and it's our fault they defaulted on their mortgages. But...if we hadn't help them get homes....then we would be called racist for not allowing them a chance. But wait....because we did help them....we are still racist....because we should have known that they could not pay for those homes and would have to walk away and foreclose on them.
Oh....wait....that's racist to even think about right....because if they are minorities and we even think they might not be able to afford the home....then we are being racist for even thinking it.
I guess in a liberal mind.....no matter how you slice it....anyone who does not agree with your views is a total racist. Got it.
(One other tidbit for you though......my friends who are conservatives......every single one of them are closet racists))
According to who? You?
I would think he would know...I do.
***the liberal media portrays him as a racist for going after illegals.***
No, actually, they go after him for treating everyone who LOOKS like an illegal, and/or has a Hispanic surname, LIKE an illegal. Given the large
***On a side note.......when there's video of the "tea party" participants, why is it there's not a single minority in any of the footage? Just bad camera angles?***
LOL!
"You blame Bush for the housing crisis.....yeah....Barney Frank and Dodd were completely innocent in the whole thing. Right."
Wrong. I posted information from respected economists, business magazines, and the Federal Reserve that prove that the right wing claim that the CRA brought about the current economic crisis is yet one more of the never ending litany of right wing lies.

(( Given the large Native American population that is in Arizona, that is a HUGE portion of the population that he "goes after." ))
Okay, because I actually live in Maricopa county where Sheriff Joe is....I can assure you it is NOT the Native American population that he is going after.
Here is a hint, the native American population is not the same as the Hispanic population. Wow...I can't believe people actually get them confused. Whoopsie.
I am confused where the liberals stand on this issue. They are mad at Bush and accuse him of "opening the flood gates so illegals will come here and be exploited to work in low wage jobs". But, when a Sheriff is elected to enforce immigration laws....they don't like that either.
It seems like the liberals don't like them coming here...but once they are here...well....we must give them high paying jobs, education, and healthcare.
