SSDD

An excellent piece by Rick Perlstein: "In America, Crazy Is a Preexisting Condition: Birthers, Town Hall Hecklers and the Return of Right-Wing Rage."

If you thought what you've been seeing from the wingnuts lately was something new, or possibly, only goes back as far as the days of the Clinton Administration, this article is especially worth your time.

[Added] Good follow-up post from DougJ on one aspect of the problem: the media complicity.
