NC GOP tries to mock Tim Kaine — FAIL (Star: 2015, military)

FAIL: North Carolina GOP Mocks Tim Kaine For Lapel Pin Honoring His U.S. Marine Son

They don't know what a Blue Star pin for the parent of active military looks like, nor do they know what the flag of Honduras looks like, but they spread hate and meanness wherever they go, including Twitter.

If you're going to criticize the guy, fine, but do so on the basis of what he's saying, not what he's wearing. You just make a fool of yourself.

Ouch. I'm glad that reporter saved the tweet.

That's what happens when you jump to make news or criticism without understanding what's really going on.

thanks to Senator Kaine and more importantly his son for serving our country.

And no thanks for all idiots who try to make news. Especially the gang at the NCGOP

They need to be kicked out of office.

I'm so over this petty BS bickering. That is what makes politics so crappy.

It reminds me of Fox News doing a whole dang segment on Obama when he decided to use Dijon Mustard. Seriously, that isn't news

[poppydog]

It really does serve as an example of the sportsball mentality of politics these days. My team is better than your team. Your team sucks! Dems do it, too, but it does seem especially bad on the Right. Thought the themes of unity/stronger together at the DNC were a welcome breath of fresh air.

Maybe it was just their way of backing up Trump. After all, he apparently can't tell the difference between Tim Kaine & 81 year old Republican former NJ governor Tom Kean.

it was the state party officials, who aren't elected at all, just like the DNC or state Democrat party officials.

For the state, it's just one embarrassment after the other. The supposed "pro military" & "patriotic" branded NC Republican Party has once again made a fool of itself. It's like stupid has become the new smart.
