Most of all, you have to be disciplined and you have to save, even if you hate our current financial system. Because if you don't save, then you're guaranteed to end up with nothing.

I have a quiet bet with myself that we're going to see a surge of "christian"/ white supremacist / anti-abortion / zealot type terrorist acts in the next 10 years - particularly if Obama wins and the GOP loses the House by the margins I'm suspecting they will.

The fringe crazies, egged on by the crap spouted by our political lunatics, will decide that violence is their main recourse.

Of course not. Even the politicians who created them know it's stupid to defend a rampant murderer. They'll defend them for everything they do up until that point, though.

Even the most notorious political party knew how to spin murder to their own benefit.

That's different. They were the ones ordering the hits. And it even looked like they took out the leaders of a group known for street violence, so it doesn't really relate.

Yet.

True, but it leave you wondering what they would do in such circonstance, how they would spin the even or distance themself from it.

We've been watching them spin away from the violence of their followers for several years now (Hannity, Savage, Bachmann, Limbaugh, Perry, et al). They immediately claim their hate incitement speech is simply "free speech" and that the consequences are not their responsibility.

The fact... a man who rallies Nazi hatred under the swastika killing religious Indians.

The irony of this is insane.
And adds insult to injury.
