Senator wishes death on Obama; audience laughs and applauds
Quote:
WASHINGTON (AP) — A Republican senator told conservatives Friday they should pray for President Barack Obama and suggested a biblical passage that says, "Let his days be few."
Georgia GOP Sen. David Perdue told a gathering of religious conservatives that "we need to be very specific about how we pray." He suggested using Psalms 109:8, which reads: "Let his days be few, and let another have his office."
As the audience at the Faith & Freedom Coalition's "Road to Majority" conference laughed and applauded, Perdue said, "In all seriousness, I believe that America is at a moment of crisis."
The next lines of the Psalm read: "Let his children be fatherless and his wife a widow."
Kristen Orthman, a spokeswoman for Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid, said Perdue's comments "left the impression he was praying for the death of President Obama."
Who gathers people to pray for the death of someone? Let alone a president?
Back in the day, this type of talk toward leaders would result in a hanging.
He's probably going to run for President in 2020. He saw how successful Trump was with the birther/racist stuff, and he's seeding the ground for next time.
I honestly can't believe I live in the same country as these people who say the most BARBARIC things.
I must be so sheltered where I live in the northeast cause I've never come across people so blatantly racist, vile, and backwards.

What I don't understand is why these senators/politicians insist on criticizing/being racist toward Obama.
Obama already won both terms. It's over. Trashing him won't make any difference for you.
