Can anyone find a quote of a major Republican ever making a joke about killing Clinton or any other Democrat?
This is yet another example of Democratic hate speak.
The Democratic party is in such sad shape if this is the best they can do. What happened to the concept of a "stateman"? Who in the Democrat party can the American people look at and admire for who they are and what they say?
And Cellar, this has nothing to do with recent bad news. It is about what Kerry said, I am sure we can deal with more than topic at a time.
How upset were you when Anne Coulter suggested Clinton should be assassinated during the Lewinski scandal? I believe she said something like "should we impeach him or assassinate him?" She's not a member of congress, but she's definitely a key figure.
And with regard to the part you bolded, the same could be said by switching Democrat with Republican, and according to the recent polls, the majority of people seem to think that way as well.
Edit: What I really don't understand is, how anyone with a clear mind can look at American politics as a whole for the last 6 years, with all the flat-out lies and BS this administration has thrown to the American public, and with a Republican-controlled congress that has done absolutely nothing to check the executive branch, with the endless amount of scandals, including, but not limited to,
Bin Laden Determined to Strike Inside US Gate, Downing Street Memo Gate, Election Gate 2000 (Stolen by the Supreme Court), Troop Strength Gate, No End Game Gate (In Iraq, but there's others that haven't been thought through), Out Sourcing Osama bin Laden Gate, Mission Accomplished Gate, Abu Gareb Gate, Gitmo Gate. Kyoto Treaty Gate, National Guard Gate, Harken Oil Gate, Authorizing Torture Gate, Terror Alert Gate. Loss of Good Will After 911 Gate. Election Gate 2004 (Diebold, voter fraud), John Bolton Recess Appointment Gate, Ted Armstrong Gate (Paying journalists), Fred Gannon Gate (Male prostitute in White House Press Corps), Brownie Gate (Response to Hurricane Katrina),
Scooter Libby Gate (Leaks that expose a CIA agent), Body Armor Gate (Not supplying troops on the ground), Staged Meetings With the Troops Gate, Jack Abramoff Gate, Harriet Miers Gate, Stem Cell Research Gate, Terri Schiavo Gate, United Arab Emirates Gate, NSA Gate (Spying on Americans), FISA Gate (Spying without a warrant), Iraq Spending No Audit Gate, Medicare Gate, Enron Gate (Bush connection to from Ken Lay),
Federal Debt Gate (8 Trillion and growing), Trailer Gate (WMDs that weren't), Signing Statement Gate, Torture Gate, Privatizing the Military Gate, Geneva Convention Gate.
How anyone can see all of this, and then ask themselves "Who in the Democrat party can the American people look at and admire for who they are and what they say?" is beyond me. I honestly just don't understand it.
