I'd like to echo m.b.f.'s earlier comments about contacting the Secret Service. That is unnecessary, and it's the exact tactic that the right wing used with the HuffPo Cheney thread in order to stifle dissent and free speech.
I don't agree with what the parties in either instance said. But, they have a right to say it. No one on the Cheney thread made "threats." Unless anyone at LGF has made a threat, this is not a matter for the Secret Service (or the FBI, which is where the comments from the Cheney thread were sent. I'm sure the FBI had a great laugh over the outraged and indignant conservative who sent them).
As Glenn suggests, it's a job for the MSM - to point out how disengenuous the right's "one set of rules for us, one set of rules for everyone else's" theory is.
