My kind of petty: Democrat running for House seat in Arizona gets six of his Republican opponent's SIBLINGS to be in an advertisement against their brother
Update: I got an email from David Gosar, one of the brother's featured in the video. He wants me to tweet this statement, and I'll oblige (1/4)
"What are we supposed to do when Paul makes excuses for the Charlottesville Nazis, goes to a march for Tommy Robinson, a despicable right wing British thug and gives a speech, is a birther, slanders an old man, George Soros, who didn't do anything wrong to him...." (2/4)
and then refuses to apologize, is on a mission to destroy health care coverage, denies climate change despite not having a clue of what he's talking about, and supports a policy of kicking out DACA kids and taking babies away from parents at the border? (3/4)Are we supposed to be
"Are we supposed to be silent? Or if we don't, when we speak out we're included in the term, "petty?" None of this is even close to being any kind of a joke to us." (4/4)
Programming note: I explained to him how i was not using the term petty to talk about their feelings, but in a colloquial sense to describe the advertisement, and the decision by the campaign. Still wanted to share his statement, though
gen x pls stop yelling at me it's internet lingo!!!
