You know who else is associated with cannibals? That’s right, REPUBLICANS!
Namely, Alferd Packer, the renowned 19th century Colorado cannibal.

“Legend has it that Judge Melville B. Gerry of Lake City , a Democrat, pronounced sentence upon Packer this way:

‘You voracious man-eating son of a bitch, there was seven Democrats in Hinsdale County and you ate five of them. God damn you! I sentence you to be hanged by the neck until you are dead, Dead, DEAD, as a warning against reducing the Democratic population of Hinsdale County. Packer, you Republican cannibal, I would sentence you to Hell but the statutes forbid it.’”

(The quote is probably apocryphal, alas, but so are many of Beck’s lurid claims)
