Top NH Democrat Threatens to Hang Republicans…
Keepin’ it classy.
(NH Journal)- Amidst a national dialogue about softening political rhetoric, members of an Obama-affiliated organization are threatening to hang Granite State Republicans in the New Hampshire House of Representatives, according to a news story in the Citizen of Laconia.
“They’re going to hang themselves,” said Belknap Democratic Chair Ed Allard of Republicans. “And we’re going to help them.”
Allard’s threat came during a meeting of despondent Democrats in Belknap County on Thursday evening. The meeting was hosted by President Obama’s Organizing for America.
Allard’s remarks come at a time when some in the national Democratic Party have attempted to blame conservative rhetoric for the shooting of Rep. Gabrielle Gifford in Tuscon, Az. earlier this month.
After the tragedy in Tuscon, President Obama himself urged Americans to “pause for a moment, and to make sure that we are talking to each other in a way that heals, not a way that wounds.”

Guess that toning down the rhetoric thingy is a non-starter now. Be carefulwhat you wish for Dhimrhoid. Remember Haman?
Reactions from the Right? none, why? because it does not require a reaction…it is a metaphor…and I will keep using metaphors as well, so chill out or I’ll bust a cap in your ass..hehe
That’s funny because I believe that when the sh*t hits the fan it’s people like him you’ll see hanging in the streets.
IMHO, based upon the info given above and in the original article in the Laconia Citizen, this was not a threat to physically, actually, hang Republican legislators.
[quote] “It’s almost like watching clowns spill out of a Volkswagen,” Allard said, of the GOP guffaws. “They’re going to hang themselves and we’re going to help them.” [unquote]
IMHO, he was simply rewording the old vernacular: “Give him enough rope and he’ll hang himself.”
GREAT, why don’t you try and start with Allen West, jerky
lol
But while we’re at it, full context regarding Mr. Allard:
[quote from Laconia Citizen] Allard said he was unimpressed by the so-called Republican wave, many of whose members ran on a platform of creating jobs and stimulating the economy but who since taking power on Jan. 1, have seemingly, at least in the House, repeatedly been prone to embarrassing missteps that have alienated them from many citizens and future 2012 voters.
“It’s almost like watching clowns spill out of a Volkswagen,” Allard said, of the GOP guffaws. “They’re going to hang themselves and we’re going to help them.” [end quote]
“Embarrassing missteps”? — you wish, asshole
/and to the newspaper editor, it’s “gaffes”, not “guffaws”
If the Tucson killer hangs himself in jail I am blaming Mr. Allard.
Great idea, but that would take courage of which Dems have none of.
You’ve never heard of the common expression, “Give them enough rope to hang themselves?” This is just a minor, vulgar statement speculating (wrongly) that Republicans are going to go overboard in the public’s estimation, and be routed in the next election.
Save your efforts for the really ugly, personal attacks. We are in a struggle for the hearts and minds of the Americal middle electorate, who often vote according to appearences and emotional appeal. Let’s not turn them off, let’s open their eyes to the every day occurance of duplicitous and corrupt actions by the Progressives.
keep your rifles loaded the war with the communists is getting close
@Billy.,If our elected officials won’t save us from communism then we must.
