The new suffix is "ers." It started with the "9/11 truthers" — crazy. Then, the "birthers" — crazy. And now, the DNC is calling people concerned with end-of-life provisions in the healthcare proposal "deathers" — crazy.

Who, me? If you want to stoke the birthers, Congressman Tim Murphy, if you want to stoke the people shutting down town hall meetings, if you want to stoke the deathers who say that healthcare reform is a secret plot to kill old people, if you want to stoke the secessionists in Texas, for crying out loud, it is your right to do so as a politician. Sure, go for it.

But it`s also our right to notice and when you get judged as a birther, deather, secessionist hooligan because [you] played to those folks, because you cultivated those folks, "Who me?" is not really a defense.
