Republican Idaho Governor candidate Rex Rammell makes jokes about hunting Obama:
Rammell’s remarks on Otter came in an interview Wednesday after the Times-News asked about comments Rammell made Tuesday night at a local Republican party event.
After an audience member shouted a question about “Obama tags” during a discussion on wolves, Rammell responded, “The Obama tags? We’d buy some of those.”
Rammell, a veterinarian and former elk rancher from Idaho Falls, said his comment was a joke and he would never seriously talk about President Obama that way, although he doesn’t support anything Obama’s done as president.
“I was just being sarcastic. That was just a joke,” Rammell said. “I would never support him being assassinated.
“She kind of caught me off guard, to be honest with you.”

Eric Cantor (R-VA), Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI).

and Teddy Kennedy died this week, so you can’t go three steps without some Wingnut trying to bash him. Too many examples to post.
