Obama Donor Charged in Death Threat Against House GOP Whip Cantor

Did Barack Obama inspire one of his donors to threaten a top GOP lawmaker?

Norman Leboon, Sr, the man reported to have been arrested for making a death threat video against House Minority Whip Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) and Cantor's family is listed by the Federal Elections Commission as having made two donations to the presidential campaign of Barack Obama in 2008.

According to the FEC, the donations were made on successive days in June 2008, on the 20th for $255 and on the 21st for $250. There are no other federal election campaign contributions listed for Leboon.

Just a week before Leboon made his contributions, Obama spoke in Leboon's hometown of Philadelphia on June 13, where he urged his supporters to "bring a gun" to the political battles against their opponents:

" If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun. Because from what I understand, folks in Philly like a good brawl. I’ve seen Eagles fans."

In September 2008, Obama told his supporters to argue with his opponents and get in their faces.

hmmm....guess CNN doesn’t want everyone to know that they allowed an Obama supporter idiot to preach hatred and violence against Jews and a sitting republican congressman on their website.

So who was he shooting at when the bullet missed its target and hit Cantor’s window? I’m sure he was defending himself or someone else, possibly a disabled schoolchild. Richmond PD? Hello? . . . Hello?

So this guy is a self-described “Liberal, gay, muslim, disabled with Multiple Sclerosis, but gave his disability money to Obama’s campaign, and has a boyfriend of over 15 years?

There are a couple of “firsts” in there that I haven’t seen....starting with “gay muslim” LOL That’s about as rare as a jackalope in the mid east.

Here? I just saw this...

Fox News: Man Arrested Over Death Threat Against Rep. Eric Cantor
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2482314/posts

Is this the same guy?

They’re probably throwing him under the bus in a PR move, just to show that they’re not biased. Like I believe that.....

Thanks, concretbob. Glad they caught him. I heard Cantor is considering a run against Jim Webb.

That and on social networking sites as well if you participate in any... Letters to the editor DO get published if you follow the requirements to your local papers. Never underestimate the power in one of those...

Now there’s a newspaper article title I’d love to see in a MSM newsrag, but never will. Of course, if it was a Bush donor, that title would be in play.
