College Republican Says Shooting Obama Is “Tempting”

Posted on November 19, 2011 by Conservative Byte

Hours after Pennsylvania State Police arrested a 21-year-old Idaho man for allegedly firing a semi-automatic rifle at the White House, the top student official for the College Republicans at the University of Texas tweeted that the idea of assassinating President Obama was “tempting.”

At 2:29 p.m. ET, UT’s Lauren E. Pierce wrote: “Y’all as tempting as it may be, don’t shoot Obama. We need him to go down in history as the WORST president we’ve EVER had! #2012.”

Pierce, the president of the College Republicans at UT Austin, told ABC News the comment was a “joke” and that the “whole [shooting incident] was stupid.” Giggling, she said that an attempted assassination would “only make the situation worse.”

“Insofar as she’s a representative [of the College Republicans], maybe it shouldn’t be said, but she’s made a positive statement in a way, ” said Cassie Wright, the group’s vice president.

Frankly, I am surprised there haven't been more attempts - perhaps there have been, and they have been kept quiet.

I have to agree with her. Shoot Osama, you make him a martyr, and the loony left wins big on his coattails. Let him continue as he is, and he's going to lose against just about anyone who comes off as possibly able to lead.

As far as I am concerned, he's already got the award for worst President ever. Unless he suffers some sort of brain damage that makes him act like someone who actually likes America, he's not going to be able to change that fact.

History gives us a disturbing parallel - his spiritual mentor, FDR, was President during a depression, which his policies prolonged, FDR was responsible for many of the federal programs now dragging us ever deeper into debt, and was rescued by the Japanese attack on America, and the subsequent war - paid for by the American people, directly - that brought us up out of that depression. If the Japanese attack had not brought us into the war, the Great Depression might have lasted another decade, and the world would be a very different place - and many think FDR engineered that attack. Had he not presided over that war, he might now be vilified as the man who destroyed America in the 1930's and '40's.

When and where will Osama's Pearl Harbor be?
