New Day, New Sid
Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller is doubling down, dammit, and screw you!
After his Facebook post suggesting that we use nuclear weapons against the entire Muslim world, Miller says that he took the post down but he is not gonna apologize for it.
Todd Smith, a political consultant for Miller, said he didn’t know why the post was taken down but said critics outraged over the content should instead be demanding apologies from Islamic terrorists, Iranian leaders and President Barack Obama for their words and actions.
“We think those are all issues that deserve an apology and are much more serious than a thought-provoking Facebook post,” Smith said.
Miller, a professional rodeo calf-roper and former state lawmaker, is currently in China for what his office described as a trade mission.
Thanks, Obama. I knew it was your fault. You made Sid do this.
I do not know where to start.
First off, Sid Miller thinks this is a “thought provoking” Facebook post.
“Nuke ’em” is not a thought-provoking idea any more than “kiss my butt” is a romantic overture.
Second off, he’s in China? On a trade mission? What’s the tarnation is that? We sent our best and brightest statewide elected official from Texas? He’s gonna give a whole new meaning to bull in a China closet.
Third off, oh dear God, why do I live in Texas?
