GOP: No 'Joke' for North Carolina Governor to Suggest Suspending Elections
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/…Republicans rebuked North Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue after she suggested Congress suspend elections for two years so lawmakers can get to work stimulating the economy unencumbered by anxiety about what voters think.
The governor's office has since claimed the remark was "hyperbole." But the North Carolina GOP isn't buying it.
"She wasn't joking at all. The congressional Democrats are wildly unpopular in North Carolina, so she may have been trying to invent a solution to save their jobs from public accountability," spokesman Rob Lockwood said. "If it was a joke, what was the set-up? What was the punch-line? Where was the pause for laughter?"
----What a fucking moron!
