Just wait until the general election these people are completely insane.

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/02/21/gop-pollster-run-barack-run-sticker-belongs-on-front-bumper/


Fox News contributor Frank Luntz on Monday made a suggestion about running over the nation’s first black president with his car.

Appearing at an event with Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum in West Michigan, the GOP pollster warmed up the audience with a few jokes. Video of the event was captured by The Grand Rapids Press.

I am really scared of the GOP nuts. The end up electing SanTourm and in general polls are done and Ricky is losing double digets to Obama because people want a sane person in the White House these people may try something. I wouldn't put it passed someone.

But wouldn't that be construed as a threat on the President of the United States life?

This is what passes for humor in RepubliCon circles these days.

These people are sick.

That seems to be a popular one these days. Do or say something stupid and it's the media's fault for reporting it.

But if you have a family member that holds the same views for some reason Democrats call them loved ones

Democrats that have republican family members that are treated with respect and as equals

Most Democrats will tell you dick Cheney is a monster but if they have a republican family member that holds the same views as Cheney they will call them a loved one and treat them with respect and as equals this makes them massive hypocrites

Democrats should not call any Republicans names unless they are willing to call the Republican family members the same thing

This one issue makes most Democrats hypocrites
