Texas college GOP leader says the idea of Obama assassination is tempting

According to the article, the entire tweet was "Y’all as tempting as it may be, don’t shoot Obama. We need him to go down in history as the WORST president we’ve EVER had! #2012."

I'd have to say that, in context, that's not so bad. Keep in mind, this is a College Republican we are talking about. You sort of have to grade on the curve.

I realize that, but it is this kind of language that provides fodder for unhinged people like Jared whatsisname who shot Gabrielle Giffords. Speak like that repeatedly, and sooner or later someone will take you up on it.

I think she is pretty clear about "don’t shoot Obama". Let's save our outrage for those that leave out the word "don't".
