This morning, former U.N. ambassador John Bolton spoke to the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). He tried to up the fear quotient in the room by raising the prospect of an Iranian-sent nuclear attack on an American city. “It’s tiny compared to the Soviet Union,” Bolton said, “but is the loss of one American city — pick one at random: Chicago — is that a tiny threat?” The audience erupted in cheers and laughter at the idea of Obama’s home city being obliterated. Watch it:

Later during the conference, Joe Scarborough warned the audience that conservatives would have to work on their “tone.” “We’re not going to win votes, we’re not going to win elections by calling Obama a communist,” Scarborough said.

what slimy men Bolton and Scarborough are

1. No doubt today's Republicon Homelanders would have been the clowns laughing

at Jesus Christ as he was humiliated and tortured by the torture-embracing Republicons of Yesteryear - the Pharisees and Roman Toadies.

Republicon Homelanders' perverted, hypocrictical, wide-stance 'family values' apparently include 'getting off' on needless, unjust suffering - like watching the Americans who live in Chicago being bombed.

Americans will never forget that it was 'Family Value Republicons' who dragged this country into the gutter with their needless, inhuman, illegal, and immoral SYSTEMATIC TORTURE of human beings -- thereby degrading & smearing the honor of America for generations.

4. Why do these Pub Assholes continue to confirm their assholeness?

6. I think it's the Limbaugh/asshole effect.

They see Rush's success and massive salary and say "let's all be like him" and we'll be successful too.

5. Do we have a tape...I'd like to make that go viral.

It clearly shows that Scarborough is not "objective" he might be considering he has the leverage to call Obama a "communist" all the time.

7. These are the same pricks...

who used the devastation of 9/11 to push their nutjob foreign policy. And now they're JOKING about an even worse disaster hitting another major U.S. city? Fucking hypocrites.

8. Joey Scar

just said that because he is currently in a debate over Bob Cesca of the Huffington Post who recently wrote that Joe was using the "red scare" method all of the time, which he does. Joe had to write a really defensive article. He doesn't say communist, but he says socialist constantly.

10. Is *all* of the GOP in need of mental health care?

Sheesh, what a sick bunch of mutherphuckers.

What kind of American laughs at the prospect of fellow citizens being nuked? For all the red-state-blue-state bickering that goes on, I know of no one who would laugh at the prospect of a red state being nuked.

They really are mentally ill.

11. it's almost like conservatism is a sickness

12. That rocks!

These guys have got to be the most tone deaf bunch of nincompoops ever assembled on the face of the planet!~

Keep the hits coming you idiots you only drive the stake further into your own hearts with every over the top dumbshit comment like this you make. If this continues there will be no republican party come 2010.
