Did you click on the link for "Watch The Video" at the top of the article?

In the video, she makes the following quote:

Quote:
"How many of you have watched the movie Lonesome Dove?," asked one speaker from the podium. "What happened to Jake when he ran with the wrong crowd? What happened to Jake when he ran with the wrong crowd. He got hung. And that's what I want to do with Patty Murray."
Would you like to see a clip from Lonsome Dove, where Jake is hung?


YouTube - Lonesome Dove - Jake's Fate

Any more questions?

The undoing of this nation is the lack of people who will stand up and speak the truth. We're afraid of hurting anyone's feeling, so we hang our head and go about our business. People who speak their mind freely when its just plain the right thing to do get a thumbs up from me.
He's talking about murder. He should be criminally charged or sent to a mental health facility. We're a civilized country. This isn't the wild west.

AeroGuyDC ! ... Interesting.

Aftreall the "Tea Party" guy was probably just kidding ..... just making a little joke!

It is possible though that he may have mean to let the politician have "40 Lashes With A Black Snake Whip" ! I'm just guessing now you understand.

AeroGuyDC is quite correct about that "Breath Of Fresh Air Thing" ... it is well beyond the time when the PC "Lunacy" should have been flushed down this nations toliet !
Thanks / Lamar

We should all start going around making jokes about hanging people who we don't agree with. What a riot.

The KKK share your kind of humor.

Right, just look at Sarah Palin's latest hissy-fit about her family.

it was SEVERLY institutionalized against the former president

air america's host Randi Rhodes in May 04 suggested that President Bush be assassinated the way Fredo Corleone was assassinated in The Godfather, Part II.

or air america's Rhodes doing it again, bringing up the kill-Bush idea in a skit aired in May 05.

air america's Al Franken (now a senator) joked about helping alqueada kill bush in 2004

Olbermann said ..... "Let's hang Bush and Chenney in the public square"

maddow, "someone assasinate Bush now, please"

Sen. Mary Landrieu threatened the president of the United States with physical violence "I might likely have to punch him - literally."


Don’t forget to include about the schools allowing (promoting) the play “How to kill the President” (referring to Pres.Bush).

Oh, Those Peace-Loving New York Liberals!”
14 April 2005

SNIPPET: “Some kind, compassionate, tolerant, pacifist New York liberal(s)* have recently taken to posting George W. Bush shooting targets—complete with simulated bullet holes penetrating various parts of the body—around town. This picture was taken on the west side of Second Avenue, between 72nd and 73rd Streets.”


and let's not forget THE MOVIE "Death of a president"




you think it didnt happen????

First of all, she should have used "hanged". People are "hanged". Pictures are "hung".

And second of all, if we're evaluating how credible a threat this was, I'm sure the authorities are investigating it as well.
