Southtown Star Mad that Candidate is Against Socialism?

– By Warner Todd Huston

Southtown Star columnist Phil Kadner tried on his high dudgeon at 11th District GOP Congressional candidate Adam Kinzinger in his March 2 editorial headlined, “A different battle for Adam Kinzinger.”

Why was Kadner so upset at the 32-year-old candidate? What caused Kadner’s tsk tsking to fly? What low-end sort of campaigning evil did candidate Kinzinger perpetrate?

Well, it seems at a recent rally Kinzinger held up a T-Shirt given to him by a member of the audience. And on that T-Shirt was, *gasp*, the word “socialism” with a circle and a line through it.

That’s right, folks, Phil Kadner is upset with Republican Adam Kinzinger because the candidate held up an anti-socialism T-Shirt at a rally. Imagine, an anti-socialism T-Shirt at a tea party styled rally… with Republicans around and about… held up by a Republican candidate! And imagine any American standing against socialism! It’s just all so unheard of.

Never could anyone expect such a dirty, low down campaign move as THIS! Adam Kinzinger should be shamed of himself, says the Southtown Star’s Kadner!

It’s horrible, dirty, unheard of, untoward even, dontcha know?

I, for one, cannot wait until Phil Kadneer’s next empty, manufactured, faux outrage against his next evil, evil, Republican candidate to hit the newspaper! With Kadner acting the savior of our political process, I feel so much safer… why I can sleep at night knowing he’s out there as the guardian of our system.

Was… was that too much sarcasm for one article? Nah!
