It's not just bad taste, it's obviously intended to be threatening. If liberals had shown up carrying semi-automatic weapons to Bush/Cheney events at any time between September 12, 2001 and January 24, 2009, they would have been immediately detained, thoroughly interrogated, and vilified by Fox News and the right-wing media as "terrorists." But when conservatives do it to a democratic administration, they're just "real Americans exercising their constitutional rights." What heroes. Anyway, in this interview, Rachel talks with a veteran of the Secret Service who spent 23 years protecting presidents. He has never seen anything like this before, and he is NOT AMUSED.
Original air date: August 17, 2009 on MSNBC.
