developing story..

When asked if the ad was a challenge to inflict violence on Rumsfeld, McCall explained: "'Pull the trigger' means let Rumsfeld know where we stand, not to shoot him!"

They can't even SPIN it well...There is NO other way to take this than for what it says.

Maybe we should send this group a box of Prozac!

[MizSterious]

Are they raising funds for Kerry's election, or a hitman?

CAMPAIGN RAGE: FLORIDA DEMOCRATS PLACE NEWSPAPER AD CALLING FOR RUMSFELD HIT; FUNDRAISING FOR KERRY

Campaign 2004 turns extreme in Florida with the placement of a newspaper ad calling for physical retribution against Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld!

"We should put this S.O.B. up against a wall and say 'This is one of our bad days,' and pull the trigger," the ad reads.

The call-to-arms fundraising ad, placed by the St. Petersburg Democratic Club in the current issue of the GABBER, a local St. Petersburg paper, asks readers to make an urgent donation to the John Kerry campaign.

Club Vice President Edna McCall told the DRUDGE REPORT Tuesday morning: "We want to get our country back. In Iraq, we're in deep trouble. If we don't try to get this situation cleared up, we are finished."

When asked if the ad was a challenge to inflict violence on Rumsfeld, McCall explained: "'Pull the trigger' means let Rumsfeld know where we stand, not to shoot him!"

"We are getting raped, and they are planning to steal the election again."

McCall said her club is in direct contact with John Kerry campaign.

"We're all working together."

The publisher of the GABBER says running the ad with the passage "pull the trigger" was a mistake that "slipped through" during the editing of this week's edition.

The Secret Service better be making this "a bad day" for these a$$holes.

[Republican Red]

No mention of the committee that paid for this. I'm suspicious of this one until we get better confirmation.

"Treason shall consist of making war against the United States, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort." -- United States Constitution, Article III, Section 3

Edna McCall, I spent eight years of my life serving in the United States Marine Corps.

I swore an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States againt all enemies, FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC.

To that end, I shall pledge my life, my fortune, and my sacred honor.

Do you feel lucky, Edna? 'Cuz I'm felling frisky this fine day.

[Darlin']

Oh, Dear Lord. If anyone in America has any doubts about who every raggedy terrorist group around the world wants in office this ad ought to put those doubts to rest. It isn't just the Barbarians at the gate we have to deal with, its the ones within, our own homegrown savages, too.

I would still put my money on Rummey.

From some of the posts on FR, he is very proficient in kung-fu.

Me too. Me too.

Thankfully the History Channel has pulled the show that talked about how Johnson was involved in the Kennedy assassination. The History CHannel also issued an apology and said the show did not meet their standards and that historians have met with them to point out the historical inaccuracies.

"a mistake that 'slipped through'"

Would you call it a "Freudian slip"?

[Defender2]

The F.B.I. and The Secret Service should be alerted to these enemies immediately!!!!

No kidding, Portnoy. This is an amazingly retarded attempt to spin their way out of what was obviously a reference to murder.

Absolutely despicable! Someone should be prosecuted for encouraging violence against a sitting Cabinet memebr. The denials of McCall and the paper are pure BS!

[Peach]

The leftists want a war but not with the terrorists. With conservatives.

They are brewing a revolution in this country and it's dangerous if how I feel is any indication.

[rod1]

Seem like the Florida attorney general should get flooded with emails asking that a death threat against a cabinet memeber orginating in his state be investigated.
