GOP congressman says media should be 'shot' over Rove focus

[cynatnite]

REP PETER KING (R-NY):
"And Joe Wilson has no right to complain. And I think people like Tim Russert and the others, who gave this guy such a free ride and all the media, they're the ones to be shot, not Karl Rove. Listen, maybe Karl Rove was not perfect. We live in an imperfect world. And I give him credit for having the guts."

1. That's it

Squeal like a pig...

[salinen]

2. Did someone shoot Peter King?

Darn.

[ThomWV]

3. If There is a Goddamned Statement Worthy of an Apology

On the floor of the Congress that would have to be it.

That asshole is talking about shooting people for disagreement with his party line.

[JRob]

6. not as bad as the FOX comment about bombers in France...

[JRob]

4. PATHETIC!!!!!

[jaysunb]

5. Has he taken leave of his senses

I mean, this sounds like a babling idiot high on crank or something. Don't facts count for ANYTHING, or are the facts whatever he says they are.

Hey New Yorkers ! Time to call your congressman in for a check up !

[Postman]

7. I didn't know Karl Rove was shot.....

Does he know something we don't?

8. Peter King has lost his mind....totally and irrevocably.

[Mojambo]

9. ROTFL

"We live in an imperfect world."

How do people like this get elected?

What a mental incompetent!

[Peace Patriot]

10. Now THERE'S a medal of honor for a journalist to wear!

Tim Russert should be proud!

(Reallly, he should get himself a button made that says: "The Bushites think I should be shot. I must be doing my job."

11. What a jerk.

Not that it makes much difference but look at the stats of his district:

District Demographics
Total Population: 580,337
White 90%
Hispanic 4%
Black 2%
Asian/Pacific Islander 3%
Other 1%

[Hubert Flottz]

12. KKKarl really does have a lot of gut...

but the other 99% is pure asshole. After all the times poor stupid mr russert potato head kissed bush's ass the rats turn on him, just like they turned on Joe Wilson and his wife! The Bushwhackers can't even trust each other!

14. Peter "We'll take care of the counting" King...

...completely unrelated sentence fragment meant to seperate legally what I do not wish seperated mentally...(needs a medal that)...deserves to be hung from a very tall branch...

Why aren't assclowns like this dillwad required to apologize? What makes them able to throw such bombastic verbal bombs with impunity?

[ConfuZed]

15. Seems like those dick-less wonders say that everytime

[FlemingsGhost]

16. Wouldn't be the first time ...

I expect a few corpses to arrive on the scene any time now, if the fires don't die down. Given the BFEE record, one or two could very easily be journalists.

It's getting that intense.

21. How do you shoot the media?

It seems like a pretty big target to me. While I don't think I can figure that one out, I can figure out that Peter King supports treason given this statement.
