Imagine a Democratic House member praising a liberal for calling himself a terrorist, then defending it. You really have to hear this guy, it's not clear what country Republicans think they live in anymore. Huff Post has the video.
Wow:
It was a comment from the crowd that may have gone unnoticed. A Redding man, identified as Bert Stead of Redding told a town hall meeting in Redding last week, "I"m a proud right wing terrorist."Apologize? The House should be censuring him. What would do the Republicans do if a Democrat had done this? We keep thinking the Democratic side of our brain - that would be the anemic side - and it has to stop. These outbursts need to be used against the GOP in a huge manner. Not just by getting the blogs to blast them, but senior members of our government need to weigh in, just as the GOP would do.
Congressman Wally Herger, who represents the district, didn't interrupt or condemn the comment. In response, Herger said, "Amen. God bless you. There's a great American."
Now democrats are calling for an apology from Herger.
