If you start feeling pity for Duke Cunningham, remember these quotes:
His answer to everything...just shoot him.

http://www.dukecunningham.org/quotes.html

“I would have no hesitation about lining them up and shooting them . . . Those people should be shot for what they did to us over there.” (Feb. 2002 to a Blade-Citizen reporter)

Shoot the Democrats

Referring to President Clinton’s anti-war activities during the Vietnam War, Cunningham once said Clinton “would be tried as a traitor and even shot” if he lived in another nation.

ought to be lined up and shot. I’m talking about the liberal leadership.” (to a Washington Post reporter)

Told then President George H. W. Bush to attack Bill Clinton’s patriotism: “This is an issue that will kill Clinton when people realize what a traitor he is to this country. In some countries, if something like this came out, he would be tried as a traitor. Tokyo Rose had nothing over Clinton.” .


“Your son is dead meat.” said Duke Cunningham and other Republicans, who taunted Rep. Nick Smith (R-MI) after he voted against new prescription drug benefits and refused a $100,000 bribe donation to his son Brad’s Congressional campaign (11/22/2003). His son, Brad Smith, was campaigning to replace his retiring father’s seat in Congress .

3. I remember getting a ltte printed about this issue.
It was late 2003 when they passed the bill. I never heard more about the son. The editors on the editorial page called me to verify that I was right, and I gave them details. I had so many calls from that letter.

5. So is it being some kind of "traitor" to sell out your national service as
a Congressman to make a million bucks?

Right wingers love to throw that "traitor" thing around.

7. I never realized this guy was so vicious and vile!
Imo, no congressman should get away with speaking like that whether they are Republican or Democratic. I realized this after Jesse Helms mentioned that bit about warning President Clinton to stay out of his state because the troops are armed. This is just wrong!

11. Part of it did not copy....he was referring to Vietnam protestors.
When he said to line them up and shoot them.

“I would have no hesitation about lining them up and shooting them (Vietnam war protestors). . . Those people should be shot for what they did to us over there.” (Feb. 2002 to a Blade-Citizen reporter)
