An Idaho Republican gubernatorial hopeful insists he was only joking when he said he'd buy a license to hunt President Barack Obama.So this is what it has come to: If they can't try to force a Democratic president out by impeachment, they'll try to stir people up to shoot him.
Rex Rammell, a long-shot candidate slated to run against incumbent C.L. "Butch" Otter in the May 2010 GOP primary, made the comment at a Republican rally Tuesday in Twin Falls where talk turned to the state's planned wolf hunt, for which hunters must purchase an $11.50 wolf tag. The hunt is due to begin on Tuesday.
When an audience member shouted a question about "Obama tags," Rammell responded, "The Obama tags? We'd buy some of those."
He's about a day behind an Arizona preacher to preached to his congregation that President Obama should die.
What is it with the Right on this? Are they so upset by the idea that a Black man actually won an election for the presidency (the first honest presidential election in 12 years) that they are now reduced to threats of violence and prayers for his death?
