Brain -> No reason to apologize for the comment because it was just a joke. (10/28/2009 8:13:44 PM)
Idaho Republican, governor hopeful Rex Rammell makes 'Obama tags' joke about hunting President Obama http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/2009/08/28/2009-08-28_idaho_republican_governor_hopeful_rex_rammell_makes_obama_tags_joke_about_huntin.html

Rammel is a nobody, he didn't even win the primary. He's a failed elk rancher who is pissed because Idaho's actual Republican Governor Butch Otter ordered his escaped elk killed before they could spread the diseases they were carrying to the wild elk population.

What an awful thing to say. I'm a free speech kind of guy, but that is way out into the "not ok" gray. I hope he gets to spend some time discussing his attempt at humor with a few gentlemen (or gentlewoman) from US Treasury who have no sense of humor themselves. Hey, Sanity; Don't you love the way the headline is phrased, and pasted together? Idaho Republican governor hopeful... A casual glance could easily leave you thinking a real republican governor had said such a hateful thing.

The Daily News has long been known for its sensational headlines, not its news reporting. And yeah, the Secret Service has no sense of humor about this stuff--and have the laws to back them up.

Did anyone suggest Cheney as a possible hunting partner?

But I guess we can excuse it because he was not the Republican Governor, only a candidate to be the Republican Governor.

or it could be taken to mean that at least one republican in the world is hopeful they can obtain office......it can be spun any way you want to twist it, if you do not wish to understand englische as she is goodley spokene..... Geoffrey Chaucer

You're right to say that he's a nobody because other then you I doubt anyone else knows anything about him. When I was younger I used to think people like this were weird. Now I'm just tired of it because it's a waste of time and distracting from other important issues.

Why would you be so upset over a 'nobody' politician anyway ? Maybe you should be more upset with what Rep. Grayson from Florida is saying these days. Calling a woman a K Street whore,. A real class act that guy.

Calling a woman a K Street whore,. A real class act that guy. Yeah that is much much worse than someone saying the would like to hunt the POTUS for sport. Perspective matters after all. O'Reilly only got his panties in a twist over one of them.

Like we said before, Rex Rammel is a nobody. Mr. Grayson in in Congress. I think there might be a difference.

quote: Rammell isn't the first Rexburg resident who has drawn attention for making an anti-Obama comment. In November 2008, second- and third-grade students on a school bus there chanted "Assassinate Obama" after his election, prompting the mayor of this eastern Idaho town to publicly apologize This part was slightly interesting. Wtf do people teach their kids nowadays??? my kids tell on each other for saying "stupid"....in our house that's as tough as it gets.

His idiotic comment isn't a big deal. If it were he would be under arrest.

Brain -> RE: No reason to apologize for the comment because it was just a joke. (10/29/2009 6:24:16 PM)
Grayson apologized, and this other guy didn't think it was necessary.

servantforuse -> RE: No reason to apologize for the comment because it was just a joke. (10/29/2009 6:31:20 PM)
He apologized after an aide defended the comments, and he was basically forced to say I am sorry. I didn't mean to offend her. He is one more democrat that might be on his way out.

Brain -> RE: No reason to apologize for the comment because it was just a joke. (10/29/2009 6:40:36 PM)
On his way out? Since this happened he has raised a record amount of money not to mention the telephone ringing off the wall in his office in Florida. He will have no problems getting re-elected.

servantforuse -> RE: No reason to apologize for the comment because it was just a joke. (10/29/2009 6:50:46 PM)
If his phone is ringing off the hook, it is probably from the large Jewish population in Florida that he also offended when he called Americas health care system a holocaust. He had to apologize for that remark as well.

These ppl are sick.If somebody even mentioned anything like that about Bush, he'd end up in Gitmo. quote: ORIGINAL: servantforuse Why would you be so upset over a 'nobody' politician anyway ?
