That bitch is just asking for it. If she wouldn't talk so much, I wouldn't have to hit her.

Newt Gingrich says something just like that about right-wing violence. See, it's all the Denmocrats fault for, like, legislating and stuff. Who do they think they are to, like, pass laws? They're asking for it. They're always asking for it. I don't wanna hit her, but she just begs for it.

I think the Democratic leadership has to take some moral responsibility for having behaved with such arrogance, in such a hostile way, that the American people are deeply upset. So let’s be honest with this. This is a game that they’re playing. People should not engage in personal threats. I’m happy to condemn any effort to engage in personal threats. But I think the Democratic leadership has to take some real responsibility for having run a machine that used corrupt tactics, that bought votes, that bullied people, and as a result has enraged much of the American people. And I think it’d be nice for President Obama, Speaker Pelosi, and Majority Leader Reid to take some responsibility over what their actions have done to this country.
