"We're on to this gangster government," she declared. "I say it's time for these little piggies to go home."

She appealed directly for tea partiers to swing behind "constitutional conservatives" in congressional campaigns, just as they contributed to Scott Brown's upset in the Massachusetts Senate race in an early test of their potency. "I am the No. 1 target for one more extremist group to defeat this November," she said. "We need to have your help for candidates like me. We need you to take out some of these bad guys."

[sam sarrha]

4. Corporatist-Fascist media theater is really trying to Legitimize those lunatics lately..

to keep an eye on these people.

[AlbertCat]

9. Gangster Government!!!!

Next thing y'know they'll take 8 billion of our tax dollars, throw it in the cargo hold of a transport plane, fly it to Iraq where it will just disappear!

14. It has more to do with Chicago. Not that they're not racist fucks. (n/t)

[Ter]

15. Depends on the spelling

"Gangster" as you put it would be more anti-Italian if anything. "Gangsta" would be the racist implication.

[tandot]

17. I am pretty sure her teleprompter or notes read "gangsta" and not "gangster"

[ixion]

16. But apparently for 8 years of Bush Family Mafia

all they could do was pray that he'd stay safe.

And the obvious, of course: I got news for you Michelle, YOU'RE PART OF this ganasta government which you deride.

[TankLV]

18. It's a little too late for them to be criticizing the bush* regime...

but glad it's better late than never...
