TRENDING: Legislator resigns after 'dead Palin' comment Posted: August 12th, 2010 02:15 PM ET

From CNN Political Producer Peter Hamby

(CNN) - A New Hampshire state legislator resigned his office Thursday after becoming the second Democrat in as many days to speculate about Sarah Palin's death on Facebook.

State Rep. Timothy Horrigan made the remarks Wednesday night in a thread discussing the Alaska plane crash that killed former Sen. Ted Stevens.

"Well a dead Palin wd be even more dangerous than a live one...she is all about her myth & if she was dead she cldn't commit any more gaffes," Horrigan wrote.

Horrigan was commenting on another post by a Democrat running for the state house, party activist Keith David Halloran, who found himself in hot water Wednesday after writing about the crash: "Just wish Sarah and Levy [sic] were on board."

After the controversy quickly gained steam Thursday, Horrigan sent a letter to the Speaker of the New Hampshire House offering his resignation.

It’s a bit of good news, although not that much, given out legislature.

Still, in the misery of these days, you take what you can get.

Not going to feign offense here. The left makes similar vile comments daily. Just surprised the guy resigned.

“she makes their heads explode”

They’ve done this to themselves.

ANY viable conservative republican candidate makes their heads explode.

Take careful note! A liberal actually resigns for hate speech against a normal person! This is so rare that it should be in banner headlines!

That's a caustic a statement by itself however the tie-in to the Stevens plane crash is what crashed his but as well. Then again liberals refuse to believe in the boomerang effect.

"Taking out the garbage, one RAT at a time."

LOL the mental picture that evokes. Holding nose with one hand while rubber gloved hand gingerly carries the stinker out by his long, thin, defining tail.

Wonder if 'rats check their tails out in the mirror aka Pinocchio's nose. Is that why Hill always wears a pants suit. Her tail has grown so long from lies that it would undoubtedly hang down below her dress line and be a dead, er, tail giveaway.
