And Another Republican Calls Him Out
This Forum generally ignores the rantings and ravings by
Republican candidates for local and state offices. The problem is there is just too many
lunatics to comment on, and most of are such minor petty people that they are
not worth the space or the electrons.
But one situation in Florida
has captured our attention for what might be a new low in politics by
conservatives. The
subject, the hanging of President Obama.
"I'm past
impeachment," Joshua Black wrote on Twitter. "It's time to arrest and
hang him high."
Fighting back against this was another Republican, much to
her credit.
"You aren't seriously calling for the killing of Obama are
you?" Latvala replied. "I know you are crazy but good heavens. U R an
embarrassment."
Latvala added:
"I make it my business when so called GOP candidates become an
embarrassment to my beloved party."
Ms. Latvala must be pretty busy, because there are a lot of
Republican candidates who are an embarrassment not just to the Party but to
everyone.
And how ignorant is Mr. Black?
Hours after the tweet, Black defended his comment. Obama should
be held responsible for ordering a drone strike that killed a U.S. citizen
overseas, he said.
"He should be
executed for treason," Black said. "I think the appropriate
punishment is death. They killed Benedict Arnold. (Obama) shouldn't be allowed
to kill Americans without a trial."
Uh no Mr. Black, they did not kill Benedict Arnold. He served in the British Army after he
changed sides in the Revolutionary War and continued to serve well after that
war was over. He lived out his life in Britain as a somewhat honored person.
Of course, if you weren’t an incredibly ignorant person you
would know that.
