Tom Tancredo makes Ken Buck and Jim DeMint look like moderates
by Donald E. L. Johnson | 10:04 pm, July 8, 2010 | 2 Comments
Former U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo today said President Obama is the biggest threat to America's liberty. This brought condescension and flames from the left, and Buck didn't applaud the statement, which Tancredo made at a Buck fundraiser attended by Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC). While Tancredo obviously reflects the views of a lot of conservatives and independents, his comments shocked the hard left Obama Democrats and a few too cool liberal reporters in the mainstream media. Actually, Tancredo showed how he can use a few words to make Buck and DeMint look like moderates.Comments

And so what is a bigger threat than Prez. Zero? I can’t think of one, and Ken Buck didn’t name one either. He not only didn’t applaud TT’s statement, he criticized it. Good point about how it paints Ken as a moderate. Only problem, is I don’t want a moderate.
But I’m with you Don, winning isn’t everything, it’s the only thing.

To be precise, Obama is not THE biggest threat, but the Obama ideology is the biggest threat. To place all the dirty deeds with one man is not logical. You can toss Obama out but until people start voting for freedom and liberty, the Obama ideology will prevail. That’s the threat. If you pursued that with Ken Buck, instead of getting a little rehearsed sound bite, you likely would be well pleased with the answer.
