Rory Cooper, communications director for House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, ripped Podesta’s comments, pointing out that innocent people were murdered in Jonestown, including Rep. Leo Ryan (D-CA). Rep. Jackie Speier (D-CA) was shot five times. Cooper said, “This type of appalling and inflammatory rhetoric is a very troubling sign of how this White House plans to govern over the next three years.”
Whoa! That’s some tough talk right there! (of course its sarcasm)
To be effective, they need to throw the Alinsky back at them. Pointing out that Jonestown was a socialist enclave with a ‘Messiah’ would’ve been the perfect response, & then pointing out that it ended in violence would’ve been the coup de grace (sp?).
