Rep. Tancredo : "Our enemies are psychopaths, and our allies are the French"

http://www.swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2007/10/warning_bill_clinton_measuring.html#more

<snip>

“Our enemies are psychopaths, and our allies are the French,’’ Rep. Tom Tancredo of Colorado told a ballroom full of social conservatives screening the Republican candidate. He warned the crowd, soliciting the laughter of many, that Bill Clinton already is “measuring drapes for the White House.... conservatives cannot afford to sit this one out.''



:crazy:

2. Tancredo is certifiably nuts
Of the second tier GOP candidates, Brownback was just ridicously conservative, but I truly think Tom Tancredo is insane.

3. 'Our allies are the French'? That's a new one from the American Right!
Unfortunately, I suspect that he means people like LePen.

7. Double-plus good!
But, don't use the term "Orwellian" when discussing this in public. It makes people think you're French.

(yes, John Kerry did use that term during a 2004 debate. And yes, I think it probably was over the voting public's heads. We have many, many stupid people in this country.)
