Donald Trump's Former Butler Doubles-Down On Wanting President Obama Executed

Donald Trump (L) with Anthony Senecal (R)

Last week, the former butler for presumptive GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump raised eye-brows with his call for President Obama to be shot to death.

Today, Anthony Senecal (who still gives guided tours at Trump's Florida home Mar-A-Lago) doubled-down on his opinion that Obama should be executed by the U.S. military as a "traitor."

Via Talking Points Memo:

Anthony Senecal told West Virginia newspaper The Martinsburg Journal on Friday—one day after a Secret Service agent called Senecal regarding online comments he made calling for Obama’s death — that he believes the President is a “traitor” who deserves to be killed.

In the threats, surfaced by Mother Jones, Senecal called the president a “filthy muzzie” who should have “been hung from the portico of the White House.”

“I think they (Secret Service) wanted to make sure I wasn't going to go there with a rifle," Senecal told the newspaper. "I told them it was too far to drive. I lived in Washington and hated it. I'm glad I got the hell out of there."

The 84-year-old, who also served as the mayor of Martinsburg, West Virginia from 1990-1992, told the newspaper that he stands by the comments he made in his Facebook posts.

"I think it should have been done by the military in the first term—they still have a chance to do it," he told the Journal.

The Trump campaign has distanced itself from Senecal, who served as the butler at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate for 15 years before becoming an unofficial historian for the property.

In a statement posted on his public Facebook page, Trump called Senecal’s comments “disgusting.”

“Mr. Senecal is obviously a very troubled man,” Trump wrote.

Pat Robertson: Gays Will 'Die Out Because They Don't Reproduce'

A viewer asks televangelist nut-job Pat Robertson whether she should stay in a church whose members weren't allowed to date.

Robertson responds saying she should leave since that church is going to die out, just like those queers.

"You know, those who are homosexual will die out because they don't reproduce. You know, you have to have heterosexual sex to reproduce. Same thing with that church: it's doomed, it's going to die out because it's the most nonsensical thing I've heard in a long time."

It's laughable that Robertson doesn't make note of the fact that the world isn't full of gay folks because WE reproduce. Luckily, we all have our heterosexual parents to thank for being here.

That being said, tons of LGBT folks like my husband and I will keep on
trying to "conceive." You know the old saying, "If at first you don't succeed...."

Pat Robertson: "One little Jewish radical" is terrorizing the Air Force

The Air Force recently changed it's policy requiring recruits to include the phrase "so help me God" when joining the service.

Until the change, only the Air Force carried this requirement.  The Marines, Army and Navy all allowed for the phrase to be optional.

You know, since we have that First Amendment that includes freedom concerning religion and all that.

Well, don't you know Pat Robertson had to go bonkers over what he calls "one little Jewish radical" who didn't feel he needed to say "so help me God" to join the Air Force?

Text from the clip below:

There is a left-wing radical named Mikey Weinstein who has got a group about ‘people against religion’ or whatever he calls it, and he has just terrorized the Armed Forces. You think you’re supposed to be tough, you’re supposed to defend us, and you’ve got one little Jewish radical who is scaring the pants off of you.

You want these guys flying airplanes to defend us when you’ve got one little guy terrorizing them? That’s what it amounts to. You know, we swear oaths, ‘So help me God,’ what does it mean? It mean’s that with God’s help — You don’t have to say you believe in God, you just have to say you want some help beside myself with the oath I’m taking. It’s just crazy. What is wrong with the Air Force? How can they fly the bombers to defend us if they cave to one little guy?

When notified of Robertson's temper tantrum on the subject, Weinstein has this to say:

“Pat Robertson is to human dignity and sanity and integrity and character what dog shit is to a fine French restaurant on the menu.”

GOP primary winner in Illinois believes God sends tornadoes and autism to punish US for same-sex marriage

After yesterday's primaries in Illinois,  one of the more interesting "winners" seems to be Republican Susanne Atanus in the 9th Congressional District.

This was Atanus' third run in the GOP primary. She lost in 2010 and was removed in 2012 when it was discovered she didn't have enough signatures to qualify for the ballot.

Just some of the "interesting" things Atanus has said:

• Atanus says she believes God controls the weather and has put tornadoes and diseases such as autism and dementia on earth as in response to gay rights and legalized abortions. "God is angry. We are provoking him with abortions and same-sex marriage and civil unions," she said.

• Atanus says same-sex activity in the military will weaken our armed forces because AIDS.

• Atanus would abolish the major stock indexes including the S&P, Dow Jones and Nasdaq to improve the nation's fiscal troubles.

Atanus will face eight term Democratic Rep. Jan Schakowsky, whose district hasn't elected a Republican to the House in 66 years.

Atanus' primary opponent, David Earl Williams III, is apparently so incredulous that Atanus beat him that he alleged on his Facebook page that Schakowsky urged her supporters to cross party lines and vote for Atanus.

“What is wrong Jan, are you afraid of a real challenge?” Williams said. “It seems like our favorite Congresscritter can’t handle a true fighter on your side.”
