Republican Missouri official: I meant ‘no ill will’ calling Obama ‘our domestic enemy’

“I cannot and do not understand why no action is being taken against our domestic enemy,” she wrote. “I know he is supposedly the commander in chief, but the constitution gives you authority. What am I missing?”

Dunnegan, who is up for re-election this November, told the Post-Dispatch that she wanted to know about the military oath to protect the country “against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” She added that she did not delete the post after it was brought to public attention. However, Talking Points Memo reported that her page is now private.

Dunnegan was elected in 2010, and is currently being challenged by Democrat Mike Bone, who currently works as a supervisor in the office of county circuit court clerk David Nicholson. She did not indicate any concern as to whether the post would affect her in the upcoming election.

“I think it could hurt it as much as it could help it,” she said.
