California Democratic Party Official Resigns Over Offensive Tweet
CBS San Francisco ^ | September 21, 2013

Posted on 09/22/2013 11:22:41 AM PDT by nickcarraway

A Democratic Party official in Sacramento County has resigned after sending an offensive Twitter message during a heated exchange over President Obama’s health care law.

SNIP

Brauer addressed the offensive tweet to Amanda Carpenter, a speechwriter for Republican Sen. Ted Cruz, as House Republicans voted to defund the health care law. Brauer wrote, “May your children all die from debilitating, painful and incurable diseases.”

Good, but the next in line is probably no better.

I’m sure he’ll move into a cushy job at a university, union, or think tank.

I can say with near absolute certainty this guy already has a job offer in some low key political position. I’ve lived in Sacramento for nearly 20 years and worked in and around the Capitol and campaigns where you know the names and faces of all the miscellaneous staff like him. Whenever they get fired for getting caught at something publicly, you invariably see them the following Monday heading into some other building for a job where they can lay low until it all blows over. Democrats encourage their people to break all the rules and do whatever it takes to win, and when those people get caught they are taken care of. (Most) Republicans encourage their people to keep it all above board, and when one of those people gets implicated in something by a mere accusation, they are tossed overboard and left to fend for themselves. That’s just the way it is.

Allan Brauer is an outed homosexual. This is how they react to us “breeders”.

Can you expect anything else from a lavender-scented puppy-slippered fudge-monger.

I still believe that the correct response to this is to publish his home address, names and pictures of his children and wife. I do not want anything bad to happen to them but I think he needs to worry about bad things happening to them each and every day.

This is the same situation he put others in so if it is good for them it is good for him.

Or at least a picture of his boyfriend and their pet gerbil.

These tweeters sure do love to let their thumbs get them into trouble. They aren’t very bright. When you think something stupid, you shouldn’t immediately broadcast it to the world. It’s better to keep you twit shut until you spend a little time thinking the whole thing through and then taking the time to get over it. Morons.

So he apologized. How can anyone with more than a Limbic System in his skull ever think that would be a good thing to say(tweet, whatever)?

Not only that but he called her Ted Cruz’s pubic lice. What is it with the left’s obsession over pubic hair??

“May your children all die from debilitating, painful and incurable diseases.”

Brauer’s chances of having this happen to his butt-buddy or himself are astronomically higher.

That’s so completely out of character for a Democrat.

The resignation, that is, not the personal attack.

The IRS and Homeland Insecurity are looking for his type too...

And the constant "Tea Bagger" comments in the newspapers' comments section. Every time I respond, I mention that that is a term used by homos and the writer is exposing his Freudian slip. Boy, you you see their response! "If you're not taking flak . . ."

I also notice the viciousness of their wishes, like that lib who wished some right wing personality would come down with cancer. Can't find the quote now but IIRC it was on a talking head show.

This type of liberal swill passed "offensive" a long time back.

These people are sick, twisted, malicious scum. They are mainstream Democrats, you can be certain of about that.

He is getting "attaboys" and high fives all over the place in private Democrat circles. His replacement will be cut from the same cloth.

As I have said again and again, these people will be cheering as the Federally run paramilitary police load us on to cattle cars. And they will be thrilled with the opportunity to flip the gas switch.

Make no mistake, when the SHTF, capitulation will not save you from them.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?… The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

You have challenged their liberalism religion. They are afflicted with liberalism and it permeates every pore in their body. They have been immersed in it since childhood in California and they can not allow opposing ideology to gain a foothold in their reality. Pity them for their addiction.
