Ladies and Gentlemen, the Republican Party

People who cannot even spell the word "vote," or say it in English -- [applause] -- put a committed socialist ideologue in the White House. Name is Barack Hussein Obama…. So the race for America is on, right now. The President and his left-wing allies in Congress are going to look at every opportunity to destroy the Constitution before we have a chance to save it…. Some things we can deal with in just a political way -- which is, you know, by the votes we cast. Other things will require a commitment to passing on our culture -- and we really do have one, you know, it is based on Judeo-Christian principles whether people like it or they don't! [Applause] That's who we are! That is who we are! And if you don't like it, don't come here! And if you're here and you don't like it, go home! Go someplace else! -- Tom Tancredo, addressing the National Tea Party Convention! (Highlighting of Tancredo's recommendation of armed insurrection in the service of a white-racist christianist "Constitutional" (somehow) dictatorship in the US was added by me, just in case you didn't quite grasp what you were reading there --d)

This Crooks and Liars link has full video of the speech for them as has the stomach for it.
