OMG! In my neck of the woods, they have a word for that kind of talk, Governor: SEDITION! If it was anybody else but Purdue, I'd say this was calculated for effect. But since this blithering idiot says the first thing that pops into her vacuous mind, I'll chalk it up to plain stupidity.

I have no doubt she really thinks this. Any relation to Sonny Perdue?

Talk about the media covering asses. News & Observer (the main NC paper) has already changed headline from "discusses" to "jokes." Does this sound like a joke to anyone?
"You have to have more ability from Congress, I think, to work together and to get over the partisan bickering and focus on fixing things. I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years and just tell them we won't hold it against them, whatever decisions they make, to just let them help this country recover. I really hope that someone can agree with me on that. The one good thing about Raleigh is that for so many years we worked across party lines. It's a little bit more contentious now but it's not impossible to try to do what's right in this state. You want people who don't worry about the next election."

Now they are trying to make it seem like a joke. Probably because:
Perdues press secretary, Chris Mackey, claims the Governor was joking when she made the comment.
Gov must be ducking and covering from
INCOMING for making such a stupid 'joke'.
Gov must have learned that skill from a class or two at the John Kerry School of Joke Telling.

The article went on to have a spokesman say something like, "Oh come on. This is obviously hyperbole."
You don't joke about bombs in airports, either.

If they need something to take their mind off the next election then perhaps it's time to joke about bringing back "tar and feathers." The text does nothing to indicate that she's joking. But who knows how she said it.
Still if they're interested in doing the right thing they should do it and face the consequences as real leaders and statesmen would. But, we are know there are few if any of those left in politics today.

The comment -- which came during a discussion of the economy -- perked more than a few ears. It's unclear whether Perdue, a Democrat, is serious -- but her tone was level and she asked others to support her on the idea.Paragraph 3 of the article. So she wasn't joking? Who writes the headlines for this fishwrap/birdcage liner?

If it was a joke why did she ask for the support of others?

"JOKE" MY @$&$#!!!The Democrats would LOVE to ELIMINATE ALL ELECTIONS!
What they want is a DICTATORSHIP with themselves in control of it!
It fits their Communist Idealogy perfectly.
BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU!
And if you've got a brain in your head, you will kick ALL Democrat politicians out of office! AND FAST!
