Ham-Fisted Demagogue Announces Presidential Bid
Tom Tancredo announces the creation of a presidential exploratory committee.
WASHINGTON — Colorado Republican Rep. Tom Tancredo, an outspoken opponent of illegal immigration, said today he will form an exploratory committee this week for a possible presidential campaign but does not plan to give up his House seat.There's really only one response to a possible Tancredo run.After making a weekend trip to Iowa, home to the first nominating caucus in January 2008, Tancredo said voters there told him other presidential candidates don’t share their views.
“They believe that there is a void in this race that none of the other candidates are willing or able to fill,” he said.
Tancredo has said immigration would be a central issue if he does run. Campaign spokesman Tim Haley said today that Tancredo would also push opposition to abortion and other conservative themes as well.
BWA-HA HA HA HA HA!!!
If this guy gets anywhere near the nomination, I will not only vote against the Republicans for president, I will do so with a skip in my step and a song in my heart, content in the knowledge that I have protected the country from being led by the Joseph McCarthy of the 21st century. By that I mean right on the issue (sort of) but completely batcrap crazy on the rhetoric.
