Reince Priebus Demagogue and Obama Hater

RNC Chairman Reince Priebus compared President Obama to Francesco Schettino, the Italian cruise ship captain who took off in a lifeboat after his ship ran aground at Isola del Giglio, Tuscany and is suspected of multiple counts of manslaughter. "In a few months, this is all going to be ancient history," Priebus said in response to a question about the brutal GOP primary, "and we are going to talk about our own little Captain Schettino, which is President Obama who is abandoning the ship here in the United States and is more interested in campaigning than doing his job as president." At least 17 people died in the cruise ship disaster.

Priebus was simply referencing the captain's behavior after the collision occurred and comparing that specific behavior to Obama's behavior. Lefties are trying to say that Priebus is equating the two people, which he is not. He is simply referring to the cowardly act of the captain abandoning ship during a crisis. It is a fair analogy. Stop making this more than what it really is. I'm sick of liberal commentators spinning someones words and framing it in a manner that fits their agenda.

Mr. Priebus:::::1st and Foremost:::::FUCK YOU!!

You're laughingly comparing the Current President of Your-Own--Country to Captain Scatino?

Please....Resign your RNC post back to Michael Steele. Fast. You cannot be trusted to lead a Tupperware party let alone the Republican Party.

You disgust, deface and demoralize my white skin.

You have no shame, show no intellectual polemic talent and your cackle-sounding laugh is that of a 10 year-old pansy-bully.

@tjlegow YOU KNOW IF PEOPLE WOULD JUST SHOW THE MAN AN IOTA OF RESPECT. THERE WOULDN'T BE AN ISSUE OF WHAT THE LEFT OR RIGHT IS TRYING TO MAKE IT OUT TO BE. REPULICANS SHOULD JUST FEST UP. THEY HATE HIM, ISUPPOSE WHEN IS TERM IS OVER, WHETHER THIS YEAR OR IN THE NEXT, THEY'RE PROBABLY FUMUGATE THE WHITE HOUSE. HATE IS POLICIES NOT THE PERSON.

Obama recently said that republicans wanted us to have dirtier air, dirtier water and didn't want everyone to have health insurance. Biden said that repubs would be responisble for more rapes and murders if O didn't get his way. Hoffa said his army was ready to take out those SOB's. This from the "civility" president. And your concerned about what the RNC chairman said? We will soon be 16.2 trill in debt. When O leaves office he's set for life. It is US who will suffer for his irresponisbility.
