CRIMINALIZING POLITICS

Georgia Senate Candidate David Perdue Wants To 'Prosecute' Democrats:

What would you do to end partisan gridlock and dysfunction in Washington?” asked Georgia Senate candidate Michelle Nunn (D) of her challengers, David Perdue (R) and Amanda Swafford (I). Here is the exchange:
Michelle Nunn: “I think that we do have a very clear contrast in terms of how we see breaking through that dysfunction. I don’t think it’s about prosecuting the other party; I think it’s about problem-solving.”
David Perdue: “I disagree […] When you have a failed presidency, you have to prosecute it.
Why stop there! Let’s prosecute every former president for every official act – good, bad, or indifferent. Let’s prosecute former President Jimmy Carter for the Iran hostage crisis; then charge Ronald Reagan, in his grave, for sending arms to Saddam Hussein. Let’s impeach former President Bill Clinton for one more blowjob; then indict George Bush for a mismanaged war and a broken economy.

Let’s regulate free speech and reign in human rights that have been allowed to run rampant for far too long. Let’s shelve the U.S. Constitution and trade in our dusty old democracy for a used Trabant.

According to the latest polls, David Perdue holds a two-point lead over Michelle Nunn. Do you trust the voters of Georgia to do the right thing? I have reservations – for a permanent residency hotel in Belize.
