The question elicited a "big laugh," according to the Athens Banner-Herald.<br />Rather than confront the question head-on, Broun responded by changing the subject to health care: "The thing is, I know there's a lot of frustration with this president. We're going to have an election next year. Hopefully, we'll elect somebody that's going to be a conservative, limited-government president that will take a smaller, who will sign a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare." passive endorsement!<br /> If I made such a statement at Maxine Waters rally, she undoubtly would have me removed!<br />Collier is correct that this is a nonpartisan issue...it is unpatrotic and unacceptable!lincolnperryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02162053529584618471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25734096.post-89702320366295396512011-03-02T18:16:12.844-08:002011-03-02T18:16:12.844-08:00And I said nothing about liberal media calling for...And I said nothing about liberal media calling for an assassination of anyone did I?<br />I said, "Giving the ex-prez so much hell."<br />Read please.....<br /><br />No conservative media has called for anyone's assassination either so the point is non-existent.<br /><br />As far as this article it was some citizen making the comment. It was not Broun so why so much is being made of it I do not know. No one condoned it in anyway.<br /><br />So what is your take and Wisconsin democrat representative Gordon Hintz telling his republican counterpart Michelle Litjens "You are F'n dead" straight to her face?<br />That wasn't some nobody asking a joke question.<br />This happened this week. Plenty in the news on it if you don't believe me. <br /><br />So a lot of bad things get said by idiots but you pick and choose which are "offensive" because, it's Obama and oh yeah, he's black and so are you. Well duh.....<br /><br />At least you do submit the liberal media may have joked about Bush and his demise behind closed doors.<br /><br />I wonder how many times you yourself joked about it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25734096.post-64664658781246474952011-03-02T04:45:14.382-08:002011-03-02T04:45:14.382-08:00@Anon 3:51

It consists of knowingly and willfully mailing or otherwise making "any threat to take the life of, to kidnap, or to inflict bodily harm upon the President of the United States".<br /><br />That being said...why isnt most of FOX News commentators not in jail!lincolnperryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02162053529584618471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25734096.post-35386148599633670462011-02-27T07:39:30.713-08:002011-02-27T07:39:30.713-08:00Mr. Collier I apologize for not being clear. I did...Mr. Collier I apologize for not being clear. I didn't mean you personally and I agree with you about all sides. What I find bad form is how the majority of the left didn't call foul when Bush was threatened but do vehemently with Obama.<br /><br />I imagine after the eight years Bush put up with it it seems "OK" to those that might say such things about Obama. It doesn't make it right in any way but makes it at least in some small way understandable.<br /><br />Hope that helps with my lack of clarity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25734096.post-88019408497581343872011-02-26T22:04:58.104-08:002011-02-26T22:04:58.104-08:00Anon 9:40, I believe it is 'bad form' and ...Anon 9:40, I believe it is 'bad form' and illegal to threaten ANY president, or other elected official. The degree to which it is encouraged or tolerated should not follow partisanship. You have not seen this behavior on this blog, ever, and I cannot accept your tit-for-tat excuse (or that of any other commenter). Protection and enforcement should be absolute. I felt equally bad for the attempt on Ron Reagan, as I did for the assassinations of JFK, and Bobby Kennedy.James C.

Bush with most on the lib side acting as if it were all in fun. After nearly eight years of that with hardly a peep about it I guess it would seem acceptable to those that took it to now think they can give a little back.<br /><br />But "now" it's bad form?<br /><br />hmmmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
