SC Republican says veteran should have ‘come home in a body bag’


South Carolina Republican Todd Kincannon who is the former head of the South Carolina Republican Party, used his Twitter feed to attack former Iraqi war veteran Michael Prysner, saying that the veteran should have “come home in a body bag”.


@ToddKincannon March 24
.@MikePrysner You are an Iraq veteran? Shame you didn't come home in a body bag.


Kincannon tweeted his reply to Michael Prysner after he made some comments about Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez who died last week, and a Police Officer who Prysner called a “coward and a sociopath.”

The South Carolinian Republican also went on to say in another tweet about Michael Prysner, “I wish the Iraqis had better aim with his ass”.


@ToddKincannon March 24
“I wish the Iraqis had better aim with his ass. Yes, I hope if that guy is ever in combat again, the enemy splatters his brains JFK-style. He deserves it.”


Kincannon wrote several hate filled tweets which for the most part cannot be repeated here because of the vulgar words he used, but you can read some of the tweets related to this story here. Or, if you like you can go directly to Kincannon's Twitter feed and read how this man responds to everyone he has a problem with. Just a warning, he has a lot of hate filled rants filled with vulgarities.

This is not the first time this poor excuse for a man made news with his mouth, earlier this year during the Super Bowl, he attacked Trayvon Martin. Those tweets are also too vulgar to repeat but they can be found in this link.

And if you are looking for any comments from the South Carolina Republican Party distancing themselves from this man and his comments, none have been found as of this writing.

Andrew Breitbart died one year ago today; a look back at the last tweets of a madman

Today marks the one year anniversary of the death of Andrew Breitbart, a conservative rabble-rouser who died at age 43, on March 1, 2012 in Los Angeles. Breitbart ran the right wing website BigGovernment.com which still continues to publish extremist articles.

Breitbart loved to be in the spot light shouting at liberals and the mainstream media. He was a true agent provocateur. During the now famous protests by Wisconsin workers at their State capital over workers bargaining rights being taken away, Andrew Breitbart was there with his megaphone and right wing thugs shouting down the protesters.

Andrew Breitbart’s claim to fame was his mouth, which got him plenty of air time on Fox News and other right wing outlets on TV and radio as he spewed his rants of hate against the mainstream media, liberal’s, Democrats, and President Obama.

Breitbart is partially responsible for the fraudulent videos by James O’Keefe that brought down ACORN, a community organizing group that helped to register voters.

Breitbart is also responsible for falsely accusing an African-American woman named Shirley Sherrod, who worked for the U.S. Department of Agriculture and was subsequently fired in 2010, after Breitbart accused her publicly of discriminating against a white farmer while working for the USDA in Georgia.

Breitbart is now gone, but his legacy of hate still continues to this day.
