Secret Service visit, GOP push don't deter Black
Tampa Bay Times ^ | 1/21/14 | Adam C Smith

Posted on 01/22/2014 4:22:09 AM PST by SoFloFreeper

..."It was not a threat," said Black, insisting that his tweet — "I'm past impeachment. It's time to arrest and hang him high" — was merely expressing outrage over the president killing U.S. citizens with drone attacks and without due process.

Black said he resigned from the Pinellas County Republican Executive Committee at the request of county chairman Michael Guju. But he dismissed a tweet from Gov. Rick Scott Tuesday that Black "immediately withdraw his candidacy to represent families of Pinellas County."

"I do not take orders from the governor, I'm staying in the race," said Black, a candidate for Florida House District 68.

Maybe the VOTERS ought to decide if he should represent them, don't you think?

Republicans, always eager to kill their own.

My understanding is that Mr. Black did not write the tweet, he merely AGREED that someone guilty of treason ought to be sentenced accordingly.

Notice how NO ONE is talking about the apparent REASON for the discussion of treason, by the way? That would be Obama killing American citizens abroad without due process.

We need thousands more like Black in the so called , “GOP,” which has steadfastly refused to acknowledge Obamas threat to the Constitution, the balance between the branches of giovernment, and Obama’s clear totalitarian imperative, including the de facto nationalization of our entire health care system.

Black calls Obama what he truly is, instead of supporting the continuation of Obama and his ilk in office.

There is nothing wrong with saying, “America, you have been duped!” and meaning it.

Black ain’t stupid . How much free publicity has he gotten? He should continue to create his anti Obama press wave as long as it will last.

Governor Scott went along with Obamacare by expanding Medicare for poor people in his state.

Scott is part of the Florida “Tea Party” that was created by the GOPe. The governor comes from health care industry
that is doing good on the stock market nowadays. It is because Obamacare is designed to funnel more cash their way with higher premiums, forcing everyone to buy insurance and more bucks in Medicare.

Its always good for a republican to be seen as poking his finger Obama's eye, but it is better to be seen as spitting in Obama's face.

On the other hand, it is really bad for a republican to be seen as acting friendly towards Obama, like Charlie Crist or Chris Christie.

So Steve Stockman in Texas, running against Cornyn, took the photo of Charlie Crist being friendly towards Obama, and photoshopped Cornyn's face onto Crist's head to try to show that Cornyn was being friendly towards Obama.

Despite AlGore’s nonsensical screaming we now have in office the first president who has demonstrably betrayed his country and its people.

Mixed feelings on that- he's killing Jihadis, his own useful idiots.

I guess he should have just wished Obama got cancer.

Excellent. Bears repeating.

Jim, you have to understand the dynamic of the real players and how they are positioned in the Middle East. There are two factions for argument’s sake call them the Crips and the Bloods. I think everyone knows of the US gang situation and the “turf battle” for control of the streets and the drugs is the battle ground.

But in the case of the ME, it is MB against AQ but it is not a turf war for drugs, but in some cases it does exist because that is the money side. What they are actually in a turf war over is who will lead the Caliphate of world dominance by Islam.

Now to your comment, Obama is without a doubt wedded to the MB and his arch enemy is AQ. The funny thing about this whole battle is that AQ was supported and spawned in its current form by the House of Saud when it was kicked out of Egypt and their Madrasas are feed stock for the radicals. MB filled the void left in Egypt and damned near pulled off the same coup as did their brethren in Hamas.

Now add to that all the machinations of the involvement of the Iranian Mullahs into the fight with supporting the non-aligned secular countries like Syria and Lebanon and we have a three way battle but our media only focuses on one “bad guys” scenario just so the moms and pops of this countries uneducated class don’t have to worry their little heads about it and focus on “raising their families” instead of educating them.

Just what does the SS say to you when they "visit"? Do they threaten your Constitutional Freedom of Speech?

And that qualifies as treason?

I am sure they are more subtle than that. Just taking your information, so you know they are watching you should be enough for most people.

I don’t know....like I said on another thread, the comments (if we are trusting the media all of a sudden as they attack a black conservative Republican) are not appropro.....but there were NO reports of threats against Bush....and any Google search on images will reveal signs calling for his demise.....these went unreported by most of the national media.

Any President has always had the legal power to kill Americans who take up arms against the United States.

There had to be numerous German-Americans who chose to serve the Fatherland in uniform rather than the US in both world wars. Would anyone argue that the US Army couldn't shoot at them in WWI or WWII without first trying to arrest them? That's insanity. If Obama were willing to start using drone strikes in the US, does anyone think a court order would stop him?
