Multiple siblings of Rep. Paul Gosar are coming out in support of his Democratic opponent, accusing the Arizona Republican of racism.

The Phoenix New Times reported that Democratic House candidate David Brill unveiled a series of ads at a fundraiser on Thursday that feature Gosar's siblings denouncing the conservative four-term congressman. Six of Gosar's sblings - Tim, Jennifer, Gaston, Joan, Grace, and David - decry his views on policies such as health care and immigration, adding that their brother's positions have torn the family apart.

Sounds like FDR's oldest son James. He was from the time he left college was a regular Republican. Opposed to deficit spending, national social welfare, fed use of the Commerce Clause to do whatever they wanted, etc. He had little to do with his siblings, even less after FDR died. He spent most of his life living in Maine as an industrialist and promoting the timber and paper industry . apparently he and dad had a very good rapport which greatly bothered the New Deal cabal.

Some of my family members would say the same thing about me if I ever ran for public office.

Hell, I believe my own mother would.

Is this ever going to f&^*(& end?

We better crush them in november, I am beyond sick and tired of the racist, sexist, misogynist projection.

Perhaps if they get beyond super crushed in November they will be distracted by burning their cities down for a while so they will finally STFU

Gosar should make them look like petty asses by making light of it. I would issue this statement if it was me: “You can pick your friends but you can’t pick your family. Looking forward to an uncomfortable Thanksgiving dinner. Still love my family.”

It amazes me how the proglibs can just pour out the smarmy and sententious self righteous crap as though they are flipping a switch. Soros was and remains not a Nazi sympathizer but a Nazi collaborator. I don’t think Soros sympathizes with any ideology other than helping his slimy machinations and like Satan supporting anything evil and destructive and calling it good and virtuous. These are vile human beings.

Accusing a candidate of being tough on immigration and against obamacare should bring out the conservative vote!

It’s not racist to not want your country colonized by fraudulently documented foreigners.

Sounds like he has a lot of freeloaders in his family. That’s too bad.

Have you noticed a pattern this election cycle? There's no discussion at all about issues. All it is is an infantile name-calling exercise. "Racist." "Sexist." "MeToo." "Nationalist." "Supremacist." Blahblahblah-ist.

No substance. It's more like a playground spat between 6-year-olds than a political contest.

Unfortunately, this "spat" carries lethal consequences....
