Ask the Dixie Chicks, Sean Penn, Michael Moore or Tim Robbins, for starters, who have all taken public direct hits and had their rights abridged by the right-wing. Even Private Jessica Lynch was dropped like a hot rock when she wouldn't beat the drum for the right wing.

Search the Net for so-called "traitors" lists, and you will find them.
Most any public figure who speaks out against the president or his war is branded a "traitor."

Or consider this snippet, from a site that cannot be linked to or mentioned here (but is **does** exist, sad to say):

"Liberals are the enemy of our great country every bit as much as al qaeda...You cant appease liberals, you cant make friends with them. They never sleep, they never give up...Liberals are the enemy. They are not to be liked, respected of befiriended. they are to be defeated, they are to be destroyed, nothing less...They ARE the enemy of free thinking people everywhere."

It's plain to see that the seeds of hate already have sprouted. And deeply.
