Tea Baggers and on-air personalities who have threatened President Barack Obama with death are ‘Domestic Terrorists’ as defined by the U.S. Patriot Act. Threats against Obama are up 400% over those against Bush and according to many sources, the Secret Service is not able to keep up.

A recent exchange on YouTube convinces me that it is time to to deal with lawless tea baggers while making a point about the rule of law. Those threatening the life of the President have, in fact, sought to ‘(i) intimidate or coerce a civilian population; (ii) influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion’. That means that threatening the life of the President is an act of terrorism.

Section 802 (Pub. L. No. 107-52) which expands the definition to cover “domestic”. terrorism ” …if the act appears to be intended to: (i) intimidate or coerce a civilian population; (ii) influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion …”
