      It's good to see the FBI investigating the Facebook Filth...

      Let's face it, conservatives so dominate the media they think they can get away with anything. The FBI or Department of Homeland Security may have to intervene at some point to tamp down a little bit on conservative filth.

      Newsmax actually took it down and have distanced themselves from Perry. "Too crazy for Newsmax" has got to be some kind of distinction.

      This is both Treason and Sedition. I can't for the life of me understand why people like this whack job can't be prosecuted. This is not "partisan politics". These statements are very dangerous and are also violations of federal law. The RNC funds Newsmax and World Net Daily, just like it funds it's wholly owned subsidiary, Fox News Channel.

        "The RNC funds Newsmax and World Net Daily, just like it funds it's wholly owned subsidiary, Fox News Channel."

        I wouldn't doubt it, concerning Newsmax and WND (I'm pretty sure money goes from Fux NewsCorp to the RNC) but are you speaking from certain knowledge or are you, a la Bekkky, "presuming?" I haven't seen any evidence of financial contacts. Then again, I haven't been looking. What evidence do you have?

          As I understand it, the RNC/Newsmax connection is that the RNC pays Newsmax for use of its mailing lists and also buys advertising space there.
