Democratic Party official forced to RESIGN after tweeting death wish
2013-09-22
[DAILYMAIL.CO.UK] ... Allan Brauer himself ultimately offered a mea culpa, barely 90 minutes after he started his tirade.

'I am truly sorry for my tweet,' he wrote to Carpenter. 'I was very upset and lashed out. Your kids are not fair game either. My apologies.'

'Thank you. I appreciate it,' came the reply.

Writing It Right For You, a consultancy where Brauer works, posted a defense of him late Friday, after the two were connected online.

The statement, titled 'Dealing with Irrational People,' wrote of conservative activists that 'for all of their snide comments, it still remains that private citizens can express their opinions on their own Twitter.'

The local Democratic Party of Sacramento County, however, showed Brauer the door an hour later.

Party chairwoman Kerri Asbury said in a statement that 'the comments by our volunteer communications chair are appalling and inexcusable.'

'No matter what our political disagreements may be, wishing harm is never an acceptable response during heated public debate or any other time.'

#10  Which fell only because of the internet. The Party organs (ie MSM) would never had let the public known, unless the party and individual had a R attached to it.

As of today all my references to MSM (Main Stream Media) will be changed to BRM (Banana Repulic Media).

#9  Conveniently separating the personal from the official a very nice Democratic double standard here in California. Bill Press (who was chairman of the state Democratic Party) used to host a political radio show as the same time he held his official position - but the two were 'separate' and Mr. Press' regular job was left unmentioned from the start.

But the TV stations couldn't run Ahnuld's movies during election season - those were deemed campaign ads.

"I know I could make this world so peaceful and calm,

If I could just get my hands on a hydrogen bomb..."

Leftythink in a nutshell (no pun intended)

#6  Allan Brauer is the true face of Progressivism, unmasked: hateful, violent, stupid, bigoted and utterly amoral.
