A murder threat against a member of congress or a candidate must be a federal offense....
After all...the congress critters look to support themselves first....like:
1. exemption from social security and private pension plans.
2. a doctors or first responders office on each floor of their office buildings
3. exempt from Obamacare
4. insider stock trading
5. and general abuse of the office....
as Clint Eastwood said the other day "you are our employees"
So....getting over the rant...
What's the Federal situation regarding a murder threat to a congress critter....?
Body Peircing and wikopedia get real dude.
Well .. Rove has really stepped in it now.
I thought he had better sense than that. If he had just shut up about it .. Akin would be behind us already.
Rove’s data on the states is really amazing .. too bad a lot of people will no longer pay attention to it.
