Trump (and his supprters) have legitimized these sorts of attacks. That’s too bad. Although, unlike trump’s attacks, this one’s kinda funny.
Difference is Trump’s are legitimately funny, delivered with perfect timing and inflection, (rough around the edges at times, admittedly) directed at those that deserve it (Obama, Kerry, Congress and anyone who strikes first) and what everyone else is usually thinking but too afraid to say. Jindal’s, Bush’s, Graham’s, and Perry’s “zingers” are flat, poorly timed and obviously out of desperation and irrelevance. Hey, here’s one, what do those four candidates have in common? Together they don’t equal 10% of the vote.
I thought Obama legitimized these kind of attacks when he called Conservatives Bitter Clingers, and worse.
I believe he even used the term “Teabaggers” in one of his Speeches. I will need verification from my fellow FReepers.
