Chat RoomNot enough rope in Washington to handle all the traitors
“I hope it doesn’t come to us having to do what we all think is coming with these guns, but you better be ready if it is.” - Send A Rope.
Last night, ThinkProgress attended Rep. Tom Perriello’s (D-VA) town hall in Ruckersville, Virginia. Inside, many people were holding signs provided by Americans for Prosperity, a corporate front-group run by a Jack Abramoff associate who also ran “grassroots” lobbying campaigns for Enron and other business interests.
“I’m angry that you ignore the Constitution that requires Obama to prove that he is a natural born citizen,” said one town hall attendee.
A local right-wing blogger called “Send A Rope” is following Perriello.
He is taping him and accusing him of being a “traitor” for voting for clean energy reform. The blogger, who encourages readers to send pieces of rope to Congress and the White House, declares on his website, “I don’t think that there are enough trees or rope in Washington DC to handle all the traitors you would find there.” In a YouTube video, the blogger ominously warns, “I hope it doesn’t come to us having to do what we all think is coming with these guns, but you better be ready if it is.”
Though this blogger is not openly affiliated with Americans for Prosperity, this type of violent political rhetoric is fueled by the misinformation and reckless attacks paid for by lobbyist-run groups and right-wing media (Send A Rope lists Fox News’ Glenn Beck and Judge Napolitano as inspirations).

After being interviewed by ThinkProgress at the event, the man not only confirmed his “birther” views, but said he was contacted by Ben Marchi to distribute Americans for Prosperity talking points and signs at the event. Marchi is the Virginia state director of Americans for Prosperity and a former staffer for former Republican Majority Leader Rep. Tom Delay (R-TX). Watch it:

You Sir, are a hack.
Thanks for posting links to this guys videos. They are creative, hilarious and informing. I used to live in the same town as this guy in Califoria… before it was completely ruined by liberalism. You know how the old saying goes… as California goes, so goes the rest of the country. This guy has a reason to be pissed, and so do the rest of Americans. So once again, thanks for posting these links.

Can you explain to CaliGuy how the US did become so fucked up?
augustus 12th, 2009 at 2:50 am
Do you stay in Colombia now?
augustus 12th, 2009 at 2:51 am
Furthermore, there are not enough boats in all of the North-western United States to do what should be done with all these dang liberals…
BUILD A HUGE BOAT and send all these traitorous buffoons to some place socialist and cold like Van de Van Jans Vans gelik Van cruist Van Denmark. Or Norway would do.

Wow with writing like yours you should be getting a job at MSNBC or some other state run media outlet any day. But hey thanks for the free publicity. They are traitors and I don’t take that back. But when it comes to “following him around” I take exception to that. If driving over to the next town and going to a meeting of MY congressman is following him around then GUILTY AS CHARGED. I do find it amusing that only the lefty communists like you can coordinate and plan to go to a rally. When we do it we are a mob. When you do it your “citizens exercising your constitutional rights”

“There are not enough TREES”
augustus 12th, 2009 at 2:53 am
Hello, “CaliGuy” would imply that I live in California.
augustus 12th, 2009 at 2:53 am
CaliGuy: Only build a boat if your going to sink it on it’s way to where it’s going so we can all be rid of them.
augustus 12th, 2009 at 2:56 am
I thought is was the Cali cartel, ever heard of it?
augustus 12th, 2009 at 3:00 am
Crazy Rope Sender - How did you find out I’m a lefty communist?
augustus 12th, 2009 at 3:01 am
I mean, I’ve been pretty careful about that.
augustus 12th, 2009 at 3:26 am
Did you see that “Send A Rope” lists Fox News’ Glenn Beck as his inspiration.
augustus 12th, 2009 at 3:32 am
#7 CaliGuy:
FYI - (just to make sure) For Your Information.
Colombia is a country in South-America.
Maybe a nice holiday destination for you?
They all carry guns and Colombia has an even higher homicide rate then the States. Have fun!
augustus 12th, 2009 at 3:33 am
The Cali Cartel was a drug cartel based in southern Colombia, around the city of Cali and the Valle del Cauca Department.
augustus 12th, 2009 at 3:39 am
You know what’s coming. Maybe soon we’ll start hearing about some of these elites being knocked off.
augustus 12th, 2009 at 3:50 am
Fijn hè, dat we bezoek krijgen van Sent A Rope fans…
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:04 am
Please don’t take other peoples names!
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:05 am
ok, sorry Jan
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:06 am
Zand erover!
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:06 am
Ok, Ok, I admit I was wrong in the above statements.
I should not have said it, mea culpa. But, it is cause by my lack of eduction and good judgement. So you cannot really blame me.
Neocons like me should never threaten people with hanging, death or blame them to be fascist. It is soo wrong to disrespect other opinions, like those liberals who won the elections and in fact are the majority in this great, though under-educated counry (can’t believe I could write a long sentence like that)
So once more: sorry, sorry, sorry, also on behalve of Glenn “the joker” Beck, Rush “the mouth without brain” Limbaugh an Bill “dick in cheek” O’Reilly…
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:07 am
(better like this, hahaha)??
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:08 am
Oh, and I am also very happy to come out of the closset after all these years……

augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:10 am
Baby Rope Sender mag je hebben!
Gratis, kosten van de zaak!
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:11 am
You’re my heroo!!!
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:21 am
You know, as a baby rope, I have pretty short fuse……
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:23 am
Too short to wrap around the neck of Kurt Feigel.
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:24 am
So we will have to waste an bullet.
The type they use in the Netherlands to commit euthanasia.
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:25 am
But that would be a wast would it?
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:26 am
So how about the French way?
Send a guillotine?
But that might hurt a postal worker during transport.
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:29 am
Or how about the Tutsi way?
Digg him into a hole until his neck and then use maplespread as brillantine to attrack ants.
But……..there is not enough maple in New England
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:31 am
Decisions, decisions, ………..
Its hard to be a neocon extremist
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:31 am
So now what??
I know it, I know it!!!
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:35 am
Lets ask some Taliban to crash into the whitehouse. We ask Dick Cheney to set it up again…
Then the Obama fascist is death and we have prove he cann’t even protect himself. The American people then will elect Bush again. And then, and then…..we have a 3th worldwar and that will take care of the liberal communist in this country…
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:35 am
Good speech Obama!
The trolls have come out in force. What will Americans respond better too? Thoughtful rational debate or a mob of screaming folks on the verge of hysteria?
Difficult question!
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:38 am
Jan!
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:39 am
Oh, shit……. not a good idea…Cheney might target the wrong person (like he did before) so we run the risk Sarah Palin gets hit. We neocons don’t want to have this because who else might rally against teen pregnancies. and, we need a minister of foreign (read: “strange”) affairs….
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:42 am
So, a one way ticket to the Netherlands would be the solution. There he will use drugs, smoke paddo’s, have sex with prostitutes and after, the good Allah will take care of him….as a punishment not 72 virgins but gays.
augustus 12th, 2009 at 4:47 am
@ 38
Or give him a gouvernmental health insurance, that will kill him…
augustus 12th, 2009 at 5:24 am
Show me a free market health care system and I’ll show you lower costs.
augustus 12th, 2009 at 5:48 am
Dream on liburtarian!
Here in Australia my father who is diabetes pays $5 for the strips to test his blood. For the same strips my sister in the US pays $35 per bottle.

Baby Rope Sender! #27.
That guy Kurt Feigel.
Have you seen his picture?
augustus 12th, 2009 at 6:04 am
He isn’t even WHITE!
augustus 12th, 2009 at 6:44 am
Yes he is: http://sendarope.com/
He has German ancesters, he wears a black shirt and he preaches a gospell we heared before in the 1930-ties.
So please everybody, leave a not so encouraging note or worse at “Adlers Nest”.

Facts and Figures from the Real World:
In 2002, the United States spent $5,267 per capita on health care—53 percent more than Switzerland, the next-highest-spending country, and 140 percent more than the median OECD country.
The number of hospital beds per capita in the U.S. was in the bottom quartile of OECD countries in 2002.
In 2001, the average malpractice payment in the U.S. was $265,103, which was higher than Australia, but 14 percent below Canada and 36 percent below the United Kingdom.
