GOP nominee for governor in WV: Obama is "trying to kill our country"
I guess that's how you get nominated in today's GOP - spew hysterical nonsense.
The Republicans in my state are no different than anywhere else on this.
-----
Sept. 19--CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Republican Bill Maloney said President Barack Obama's administration is "killing us."
"He does not deserve to be re-elected," Maloney told a gathering of Republicans Saturday night in Charleston. "He's trying to kill our country and he's really trying to kill West Virginia."
At several points, Maloney repeated the sharp message to Republicans at the first West Virginia Lincoln/Reagan Gala at the Civic Center. About 350 people attended, according to a GOP official.

1. The 'Democratic' Senator Joe Manchin would not disagree.
West Virginians are united in their hatred of the President.
Yes, they are. Along with decent and civilized people all over the country.

4. Yes. Manchin was on fox last week..
stating we can't tax the rich and we have to stop the spending.
Manchin is like Zell Miller. He speaks okay, but he's a traitor as long as he's in the democrat caucus, voting for Dingy Harry.
WV isn't important, but it would be symbolic disaster for the democrat party if Manchin, sitting in Sheets Byrd's seat, flipped parties.
Sheets was hugely popular, as is Manchin.

2. I never say this, but some people need to STFU.
What is wrong with these people???! They're trying to bait people. And I do not like it. There's free speech and there's incitement to violence.
They'll never admit what they're really doing, but we all know.

3. I am sick of what of read about my birth state! West Virginia
used to be a STRONG Democratic state,and the strongest support for unions! I don't know what happened to it, but it is very disheartening. I'm sick at heart!
The only union that counts, and the only industry that counts in West Virginia is coal, coal, coal.
The democrat party and their environmental wacko algore policies have declared war on coal.
If it weren't for coal, WV would still be Republican due to the democrat party's official hatred for Christianity and the Second Amendment.
And that has nothing to do with abortion, taxes, the deficit, the national debt, foreign policy, or any other political consideration, on all of which the democrat party takes the wrong side.
