Allen Quist at the Wabasha BPOU Christmas Party Dec 7th 2009

Allen Quist, a Republican who is seeking to defeat Rep. Tim Walz in southern Minnesota’s First Congressional District, told attendees of the Wabasha County Republicans Christmas Party in mid-December that beating the “radical” liberals in Washington, D.C., is a bigger battle than beating terrorism.
“Our country is being destroyed. Every generation has had to fight the fight for freedom… Terrorism? Yes. That’s not the big battle,” he said. “The big battle is in D.C. with the radicals. They aren’t liberals. They are radicals. Obama, Pelosi, Walz: They’re not liberals, they’re radicals. They are destroying our country.”

Quist also railed against the health care reform bill. “This is the most insidious, evil piece of legislation I have ever seen in my life… Every one of us has to be totally committed to killing this travesty… I have to kill this bill.”

Quist, who has a background as a religious right figure, has been working to align himself with the Tea Party movement.

...completely ignored the record on the Underpants Bomber can tell that.

:patriot:

an ultra-left-wing liberal, in danger of falling over the near edge.
Obama a Liberal? Not if one is in touch with reality, he isn't.

...that a liberal is just anyone who doesn't fall into the very narrow worldview posited by talk radio and regurgitated like sheep.

:hi: :hi: :hi:

They have just been wrong for a very long time without any shred of decency.

Congratulations on waking up. I don't think you're the only person here who knows the party left him.

and welcome to DU :toast:

anytime the republicans talk about a democrat or a democratic President, they usually say that, not only are they a liberal, but they also say that person is the most extreme, far left version of a liberal!

They said it about Clinton, Kerry, Kennedy, Pelosi, Obama and many others.

It doesn't matter if it's true, it usually isn't. But somehow, it doesn't seem to be enough to claim that they're just a liberal, they also have to say that they're an extreme and in this case, a radical.

they pretty much always put the most likely Senate Dem as "the most liberal Senator." If you look at the votes that got Obama that distinction, among them were voting for the 9/11 Commission recommendations.

well, he can have his war, and he and his kind will lose. Just a matter of time...

that's a reasonable view for him to take.
