When GOP Chairman Reince Priebus stated that in order to improve the GOP's tarnished and damaged image as a part of his "autopsy report", "Republicans need to stop saying stupid, idiotic things"...the egregious statement below from Todd Kincannon, former Executive Director of the South Carolina GOP.... must be what he had in mind.
A perfect example of "stupid, idiotic" comments delivered by a Rightwing extremist Republican Party insider and a self described "pro-lifer"!
A prominent pro-life Republican in South Carolina has a plan to stop an Ebola outbreak in the United Nations.
Kill anyone who gets it.
Todd Kincannon, the former executive director of the South Carolina GOP went on a Twitter tirade this weekend.
His first tweet read: “People with Ebola in the US need to be humanely put down immediately.”
Then in a following Tweet: ‘The protocol for a positive Ebola test should be immediate execution and sanitation of the whole area. That will save lives.”
He unloaded about a half a dozen other really hateful messages.
He blames the spread of Ebola on the people of Africa for: “Eating each other."

Some other "charming" statements/tweets from Kincannon:
In November 2012, he called Nancy Pelosi a “c--t. a b---ch and a wh--e”
During the 2012 Super Bowl, he tweeted “It hasn’t been this dark in the Superdome since all those poors occupied it after Hurricane Katrina.”
Hey what's the difference between Trayvon Martin and a dead baby? They're both dead, but Pepsi doesn't taste like Trayvon.
“We should put Wendy Davis’ vagina in charge of the Ebola outbreak,” he wrote. “It will kill all of them without mercy and go to Nordstrom’s afterwards.”
On Sunday, Todd Kincannon, a South Carolina lawyer and the former executive director of the South Carolina Republican Party, tweeted that it was a “shame” an antiwar veteran “didn’t come home in a body bag.”
Kincannon didn’t stop there. The political blog Little Green Footballs took screenshots of the full Twitter tirade against Mike Prysner, the Iraq war vet turned antiwar activist.
When a supporter of Prysner tweeted back, “Damn Todd. That’s pretty fucked up,” Kincannon responded, “Go read what the asshole wrote. I wish the Iraqis had better aim with his ass.” And a final tweet: “I hope if that guy is ever in combat again, the enemy splatters his brain JFK-style. He deserves it.”
Indeed. "GOP rebranding" 101...check. "Death panels"...check. "Pro-life"....check.
The GOP continues to be the party of intolerance, racism, bigotry, misogyny, homophobia and xenophobia. They have no self respect, so they're incapable of respecting life.
The GOP wonders why they are accused of being at war with women, minorities and the middle class and poor. They need only to listen to the things they say and do to figure out why they can't win the electoral college/White House any more.
Vote on November 4,2014 and put an end to Republican intolerance and stupidity in elective government
