I’m starting to think this Jazz Shaw guy is a bit of a dope. Peter King is well known in the NYC metro area, he is a R congressman from Long Island. He’s reasonably right wing, but he is thought of by many to be a RINO. To me he is most memorable as being quite a squish on the IRA (Irish Republican Army) a group who managed to hide from many of their stateside supporters that they were another COMMUNIST outfit. At least I think they hid it, maybe people here did know that. I’d like to think Congressman King knew it, at any rate.
Some commentors over at Hot Air seem to think Shaw’s confused Peter King with Steven King. Which would be kind of a stupid mistake.
However, I believe Peter King has floated the idea of running for Pres. But by no estimate is he a “hard core” conservative so this is a bit confusing.
And it’s even stranger, since Steve King has refused to run for even a senate seat. I wish the author would clarify if he really is referring to Pete King and didn’t get confused.
