Secret Service Looking Into Radio Host’s Graphic Violent Comments About Obama, Hillary Clinton

The Secret Service is following up on recent comments by right wing radio host Pete Santilli, who claimed to want to shoot former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the vagina and see President Obama tried and shot for treason.

“We are aware of Mr. Santilli’s comments and will take the appropriate follow up action,” Edwin M. Donovan, a Secret Service spokesperson, told TPM on Monday. “He certainly has a right to free speech, but the Secret Service has a right and an obligation to determine what a person’s intent is when making comments like this.

Good. No one's denying him his vulgarity... but it is being looked into.

doesn't RADIO mean:

Radio is the wireless transmission of signals through free space by electromagnetic radiation of a frequency significantly below that of visible light, in the radio frequency range, from about 30 kHz to 300 GHz.[1] These waves are called radio waves.

Wouldn't this clown be more of a blogger? There is NO RADIO broadcast of this guy.

Oh... and it's way over the top and SS should be crawling up and down every aspect of this guys life lol.

I'm not clever enough to know if there's a difference in definition between what radio is within the context of science, and what radio is in the context of law and federal licensing.

He will whine-brag about the SS on his show, but SS scrutiny is not going to be comfortable for him.

I remember when some Dems made fun of Petraeus, some said he would "betray us." A joke on words..anyway, the Republicans went off like a cannon aimed at the Nazis...Oh, "you are not patriots for making fun of him ." "What is wrong with you Democrats, don't you love your country?"...they said...

But here, shoot someone, a respected leader, in the vagina, and you hear nothing from them. At least I haven't seen even one of them condemn this jerk. If someone has a link to the Pukes condemning him..I would like to see it...

The Pete Santilli Show — Live Daily Broadcast Mon-Sat 11am - 2pm

A whole lot of stuff right here about Hillary, etc.:

More googling found:

Up-and-coming Paytriot Pete Santilli hocking Jesuits dun it theorism

Santilli only became known after doing a couple of radio spots about Alex Jones and the Molly Maroney Stratfor connection over the last few weeks. And it wasn't even his work, it was Sherrie Lea (http://www.youtube.com/user/MsSherrieLea) who broke the Stratfor story after researching Molly Maroney. Looks like it was just a ruse. He is also pedalling the works of Jesuit theorist Hatrick Penry (http://hatrickpenry.wordpress.com/) and nutbagger William Dean A. (Garner On The Reptilian-Jesuits Axis http://www.williamdeanagarner.com)

Santilli and Mark Dice have kind of popped up overnight...

LUNATICS ‘R US: The Santilli/Wood/Sunstein Gambit

Sunday, January 20th, 2013
by Jim Fetzer

The latest hysterical tirade from Pete Santilli during his interview with Morgan Reynolds on Friday, 18 January 2013, may qualify as the most irresponsible radio program in history.

It demonstrated beyond any doubt that Santilli has no scruples about defaming those of us who have been dedicating our lives to exposing the fabricated events of 9/11, going so far as to claim that I was involved in the death of Michael Zebuhr, a graduate student of Judy Wood, in St. Paul, MN, on Saturday, 18 March 2006; that I am a disinformation agent who is paid by the federal government; and that I, among many others, have been doing my best to suppress the existence of “free energy” technology.

There was more, but this gives you the general idea. The program can be accessed at American Freedom Radio, which has given him this podium...

To call for someone's death is NOT free speech. Why do they call it that. Kind of like why does the media pronounce Boehner Bainer.

These right wing pundits make outrageous statements because they know the media will pick it up and give them free publicity for whatever they are wanting to promote - radio or TV show, latest book, speaking tour, etc. You can always count on Ann Colter to make some outrageous statement when she is bring out a new book. If all the media would just ignore them and we wouldn't post about them here, they would stop doing it.
