Maybe it's time to have the Government react to the seditious talk by Sarah Palin and the Tea Party followers. maybe it's time before the violence breaks out.

1. I agree..

Palin, Bachman, and Rush are over the top. They need to be charged with treason, inciting violence against their commander in chief. They are flame-throwers who will have blood on their hands if something happens.

2. Perhaps...but

we don't want to martyr these dimwits. That is how they are going to spin it with the help of Foxnews.

3. Arresting them is not martyring them it sends a message that free speech only goes so far

5. Not to a tea bagger it doesn't, how dare the gobernment arrest these poor innocent americans for

using their god given right to speak!!!!!!!!!!! Never mind that when people were saying that the current 2 wars were wrong the same tea bagging nit wits called for their arrest, but then they are people who live by double standards, like protesting gobernment hand outs while living on gobernment hand outs. Reality is not the tea baggers strong point and they know the constatution ( mis spelled for tea baggery )like the back of their hand, wink wink.

10. It sounds nice until you're not in power anymore

which would be about 2.5 years from now if the government started arresting people for speaking out against the government.

4. I agree -

Then again, even though the Palin supporters are a small percentage, they are cultish. If federal charges are brought against scarah, she will be a martyr. Could get ugly = only people dumber than the Wasilla whackjob are her followers.

Best if the State of AK puts the cuffs on her (for one of her numerous crimes)IMO.

See list of her many "gates" (crimes etc.) on the right side of this website (a real eye-opener):

6. Sedition has always been a controversial topic in this country

Until the first bullet is fired, celebrities are generally allowed to stir the free-speech pot. I can't say that I've seen such hot rhetoric from such high-level political celebrities however - they are really pushing the limits of civility. I still think nothing will happen until a major outbreak of violence or a high-level assassination.

7. Why can't a private citizen file a suit against them

8. Agreed

There is no doubt that the teabaggers are indeed trying to incite violence.
