A Nebraska Democratic Party official is now in hot water. An audio recording was posted on YouTube Thursday with Phil Montag, a technology chairman, voicing how glad he was Louisiana Congressman Steve Scalise got shot last week at a baseball practice. Nebraska Democratic Party chairwoman Jane Kleeb confirmed to FOX 42 News Thursday it was really his voice. "His whole job is to get people, convince Republicans to (expletive) kick people off (expletive) health care. I'm glad he got shot," said Montag in the audio recording. Montag is now looking for a new job. Kleeb let him go after the recording became public. "I wish he was (expletive) dead," said Montag in the recording. "We obviously condemn any kind of violence, whether it's comments on Facebook or comments in a meeting," said Kleeb when reached by phone Thursday. FOX 42 News tried several times to reach out to Montag Thursday. We e-mailed, sent text messages and called. We also tried to see him in person, but we could not reach him. "Our country is better than the political rhetoric that is out there from both the far right and the far left," said Kleeb. The audio that was released Thursday comes about one week after a Nebraska state Democratic leader was asked to resign. Chelsey Gentry-Tipton was involved in a controversy over a Facebook post about Congressman Scalise.

The Left incites violence.
The Left commits violence.
The Left celebrates violence.

Ask the media and they will quickly say that Republicans are much, much worse.

Really? Any evidence? Because it seems pretty one-sided to me, and the Left is guilty, guilty, guilty.

I operate on the assumption that all of them (the left and its travellers) say it amongst themselves. This one just got caught on tape, and didn’t have a minority status so that he could just brazen it out.

This is what happens when the left spends decades pushing standards-free Postmodernism, self-righteous Cultural Marxism, and the destruction of traditional religious values and the natural law in this country. There are millions of people out there who are deeply immoral, inclined towards violence, and intolerant of people who disagree with them, who are totally convinced that they and only they are the “good guys” and everyone else needs to be destroyed by any means possible.

If this guy really cared about everyone, he could have talked about all the millions of people who can’t use their insurance because Obamacare forced their deductibles up well beyond what they could afford, all the people who lost their good quality doctors and now have inferior care because of Obamacare, or all the healthy young folks who are being forced to buy insurance at inflated prices to subsidize others when they would have been able to find their financial footing first in the past. His (and so many leftists’) goals are not to honestly address all the problems facing the American people and find workable solutions; it’s only to demonize Republicans and push their own partisan socialist narrative at all times, even at times when they should be showing empathy and encouraging open debate instead of murder.

This is the difference between the right and the left.

We don’t want them dead, we just want them out of power.

They want us dead.

Would not have been fired if there was no voice recording.
