"SEATTLE (AP) - A Washington state man has been charged with threatening
to kill Democratic Sen. Patty Murray over her support for health care
reform, leaving voicemail messages at her office saying she had a target
on her back and "it only takes one piece of lead."

Federal agents arrested Charles Alan Wilson, 63, without incident in
Yakima, Wash., on Tuesday.

Murray's office in Seattle reported the threats amid a rash of ugliness
aimed at lawmakers who supported the sweeping federal health care
legislation. Some lawmakers have been spit on and several have reported
receiving threatening calls.

FBI spokesman Bill Carter said Wilson is believed to be the first person
in the country arrested for such threats.

The messages to Murray were left on voicemail from a blocked telephone
number, FBI Special Agent Carolyn W. Woodbury wrote in a probable cause
statement. Agents said they traced the calls to Wilson's home in Selah,
near Yakima.

Wilson has a .38-caliber revolver registered to him and has a concealed
weapons permit, Woodbury wrote.

To confirm Wilson was the caller, one agent telephoned him and posed as
a member of a group working to repeal the health care legislation, the
statement said.

According to an excerpt of the conversation, Wilson confirmed he
repeatedly called Murray as well as Washington's other Democratic
senator, Maria Cantwell. He then stated: "I do pack, and I will not
blink when I'm confronted. ... It's not a threat, it's a guarantee."

Murray's office told the FBI it had been receiving harassing messages
from the caller for months, but they became more threatening as Congress
was voting on the health care legislation.

"There's a target on your back now," said one message on March 22. "It
only takes one piece of lead. Kill the (expletive) senator! ... Now that
you've passed your health-care bill, let the violence begin."


Given that the only bi-partisan group in the healthcare vote were
those opposed to it,

Thanks for admitting the republicans abdicated their positions of
governance.


What about the democrats who voted against obamacare, Einstein?

All the democrats voted no? Do tell. lol

What? Who said they all did?

What a pitiful attempt to divert. Pitiful even for a stupid
sockpuppet.
