On MSNBC's Sunday afternoon programming hosted by network anchor Alex Witt, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said "death to America" chants in Iran could be read "in a couple of ways," not necessarily in the literal sense. Schiff argued Ayatollah Khamenei's chants "really plays to the conservative crowd" in Iran. "Or, it could be of course that he really means it," Schiff also argued.

Gee I wonder if at a Tea Party rally if people chanted “Death to Obama” if these same Dems would say “Well that can be interpreted in different ways”
To: i88schwartz
"Well, um, yeah, like, it's too nuanced for you conservatives to easily understand, ya know..."

No biggy... Khamenei was just doing his best at his Benjamin Franklin imitation: “A Republic; if you can’t keep it, it’s Death to America!”

Dem Rep. Schiff: Ayatollah's "Death to America" Chants "Could Be Read In A Couple Of Ways" I agree. Just like Hitler's 'Death to the Jews' chants could be read a couple of ways.
Because who could expect a politician to actually tell the truth.

When I use a word, Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, it means just what I choose it to mean neither more nor less.
The question is, said Alice, whether you can make words mean so many different things.
The question is, said Humpty Dumpty, which is to be master thats all.

The only way to read what Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said is that his words gives aid and comfort to the enemy.
To: Sarah Barracuda
Or “Death to liberals” et cetera.
What about the Black Arts Movement’s “Death to Whitey” mantra?

"Death to America" contains no "or else".
It is not contingent on our behavior. The problem is what we are, which to them is the Great Satan.
Of course they really mean it.
The only wiggle room is that "moderates" might not be in such a big hurry, strictly as a practical matter.

The fact that the spoon-fed straight-ticket Demagogic Party supporters will immediately believe that, and take that up as their own, shows just how far gone they are.
