Florida Dems: Murder Rumsfeld, Give Money to Kerry
Matt Drudge reports on an ad the St. Petersburg Democratic Club has taken out in the Gabber, a local weekly newspaper in the Gulf Coast city:

Senator Edward Kennedy is absolutely right when he called Iraq "Bush's Vietnam." But it's not only Bush. It's his whole damn Bunch: Cheney, Powell, Rumsfeld, Rice, Rove and Ridge.

They've tried to blame the Iraq war on bad intelligence, on Al
Qaida, on terrorists, on foreigners from Iraq and Syria. Bush doesn't even know who in the hell we're fighting. The Bush Bunch calls the Iraqis insurgents. Did you know that Britain called the American revolutionaries insurgents and traitors? The Iraqis aren't insurgents. They're Iraqi patriates [sic] who want us the hell out of their country, and we should get the hell out of their country now!

We have Marines and soldiers being killed by the dozens with many more wounded. How many have to be killed before the Bush Bunch is satisfied? How many burial services of our Iraq dead has Bush attended? Any? How many military hospitals has Bush visited to talk to our wounded who have lost arms, or legs, or their eye sight, or combinations of these--how many?

And then there's Rumsfeld who said of Iraq "We have our good days and our bad days." We should put this S.O.B. up against a wall and say "This is one of our bad days" and pull the trigger. Do you want t salvage our country? Be a savior of our country? Then vote for John Kerry and get rid of the whole Bush Bunch!

Please make a donation of ANY amount of money you can afford and send it to John Kerry for President, Inc. . . . Do it NOW. Thank you.

Suppose a local Republican club placed a newspaper ad soliciting donations for President Bush and urging the assassination of a prominent Democratic official. Would it not be national news? Why have we heard nothing about this ad--which appeared last Thursday--until now, and only from the Drudge Report?

Dems Renounce Assassination Call
We noted yesterday that the St. Petersburg (Fla.) Democratic Club had taken out an ad in a local weekly newspaper urging the assassination of Donald Rumsfeld and donations to the Kerry campaign. CNN reports the campaign has denounced the ad:

"We are calling the Pinellas County Democratic Party chair about this ad and demand that it be retracted," Kerry campaign spokesman Stephanie Cutter told CNN. "John Kerry does not condone this type of advertising and believes that it is wrong."

It's not quite clear why they're calling a piece of furniture. Even more confusingly, a Washington Times headline says the ad has been "withdrawn," but the actual story says only that various Florida Democratic bigwigs are distancing themselves from it.

The Times quotes Edna McCall, the club's vice president, as telling the Drudge Report "that the ad was not meant as a call for actual injury to Mr. Rumsfeld. ' "Pull the trigger" means let Rumsfeld know where we stand, not shoot him,' she said. 'We are getting raped, and they are planning to steal the election again.' "

Hmm, here's a full lexicon of Edna McCall-speak:

"pull the trigger": to let someone know where you stand


"getting raped": losing


"steal": win

We suggested yesterday that there was a media double standard, that a Republican group would get much harsher treatment if it did something similar. A bit of evidence is in this 2000 CNN report describing the outrage of antigun activists over a fund-raising contest for the Carroll County, Md., Republican Party. The local party didn't call for anyone's murder; it merely raffled off a 9mm handgun, an item whose ownership is not only legal but protected by the Bill of Rights.

Don't forget Darrel, these are the "compasionate, love everybody, violence is bad", Democrats. As you say, if a Republican had done something like this, NBC, ABC, CBS, NPR, and almost every newpaper in the country would be screaming and whinning. So far, relative silence. It's laughable but just goes to show how evil these people really are.

What Pack said. At least three times. May the cheeks of their butts grow shut.
