Tancredo: Obama is a Worse Threat Than the Soviet Union Or Al Qaeda
Former Congressman and GOP presidential candidate Tom Tancredo showed up at a rally in Colorado for Senate candidate Ken Buck, and announced that the worst threat the United States has ever faced — worse than the Soviet Union and worse than Al Qaeda — is President Barack Obama.
Ken Buck immediately went into damage control mode:
Following the rally, Buck was quick to distance himself from Tancredo’s remarks.
“I don’t agree,” he said. “I think there are a lot of threats to the White House and I don’t think the man in the White House is the greatest threat to this country at all. I am concerned about the direction of the country, but — I love Tom, but I don’t always agree with him.”
But of course, they can’t possibly have been surprised. Everyone knows what to expect if you book Tancredo as a speaker.
