The best part is this:

"So apparently my post last night about Obama got onto Twitter and Fox 40 came and interviewed me cause apparently a lot of people in Sacramento think I'm crazy and racist. WOW is all I got to say!! I'm not racist and I'm not crazy. just simply stating my opinion.!!!"

Just another example of conservatives living in a bubble where reality and their lunacy are at a complete mismatch. It's like when i post the GOP's history of the southern strategy and conservatives here are in complete denial.

They live in a bubble where racist crap is spewed on a daily basis. They believe its completely normal to post and say racist things. And they are shocked that people are offended.

And they also believe that as long as the Republicans put up a minority candidate that minorities will forget all that.

Sigh.

Helms could not be reached for comment by The Bee. She told Fox 40 she wasn't aware she could be investigated by the Secret Service for her post.
"OK, but what did I do wrong? That's fine if they want to," she told the reporter. "But I don't understand what I did wrong."
What an idiot.

It has nothing to do with her being a "conservative" and everything with her being fucking stupid.

More importantly why do the thoughts of a 22 year old minimum wage ice cream worker get national fucking spotlight is what I wonder? OMGTWITTERWEB20LOL is so awesome, any idiot can get attention saying stupid shit. Clearly there is value in hearing her thoughts on life.

If you drew a venn diagram of 'fucking stupid' and 'conservative', there would be a very big overlap.

What an idiot.

And here is the real story. I have an active facebook to which I've never posted simply to check on relatives. I always think "what are these people thinking" when I read some things. It's as if they believe that facebook is only seen by people they want to, and that it's a private diary. It isn't and it isn't. She was surprised the SS took notice? Really?

Egads.

I didn't know that every single Conservative was "stupid":confused:

Who cares about the girl, she is a minimum wage worker who was ranting about obama, nothing to worry about

"I'm not racist, it's just my opinion!" I wonder if this excuse will fly if I ever try and use it.

I think the best part is she is now probably going to be a liberal when she can't find a job and then finds herself supporting more and more social service programs.

I highly doubt she'll be come a lib, she'll just become a moocher and still be racist...biting the hand that is feeding her.

Your IQ is likely on par with hers.

Maybe I missed something or you see somthing that every one else doesn't but where did anyone say it was illegal or suggest she be imprisoned?

You are going to hold her up as some trophy and do a victory dance over some extreme stement? You’re a fucking idiot. That in no way represents the GOP or any party for that matter. And how in the world is this part of the southern strategy if the dumb bitch is from Sacramento? This kind of crap is un-American. BTW, where in there does it mention she is a Conservative anyways? She could just as easily be a racist Democrat like the shithead that ran the Senate till 1989.

Why does it matter if it's illegal? At-will employment, they could have fired her for anything other than the fact she was a woman legally.

A lot of people do not understand that if you made a threat comment to the US President, his Cabinet members, a member of Congress, etc., it is a Federal offense crime. 1st Amendment right would not be applicable.

Any potential threat will be analyzed. You don't want to even think about the resources available to ferret out almost everything. The end result is that she wasn't arrested because you are correct, but she's brought attention to herself and was fired. That isn't illegal either.

If she had then yes. She did not however, but clearly wouldn't mind if one was carried out. That however is not the same as threatening to commit or support the act.

God I love it.
Republicans coming to the defense of racism!

It really is freaking "Morning in America"

Every day, in every way, Republicans just can't escape the little world the live in, no matter how much the real world is changing around them.

Why is it that most of the people I see saying dumb shit about Obama on Facebook work at places like ColdStone Creamery? No seriously, I was debating some stupid woman on a new article that uses Facebook for comments. She kept talking about how Obama ruined this country and how she can't get a good job. I asked her if she went to college, she said no. Then, I moused over her Facebook name and saw that she was a Cashier at a Grocery store.....

I wanted to fucking die.

I mean, if you are going to be all die hard for Romney, atleast be accomplished. I'll respect you WAY more.
