Kenosha County, WI – At a brunch for the Kenosha County Republic Party, Jason Thompson, the son of United States Senate Republican candidate Tommy Thompson of Wisconsin, was captured on video telling the attendees, “We have the opportunity to send President Obama back to Chicago – or Kenya.” Buzzfeed.com reports (http://bit.ly/OBWng9) that his remark was greeted with laughter, with one woman adding, “We are taking donations for that Kenya trip.” The video was recorded by a supporter of the Democratic Party.

Tommy Thompson was not present at the event, but has had his own share of gaffes. While addressing a Jewish audience at the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism during his failed presidential run in 2007, Thompson complimented his Jewish audience on their success in obtaining wealth, saying that earning money was “part of the Jewish tradition.” When he was told that his comments were extremely offensive, he attempted to backpedal, and explained, “What I was referring to, ladies and gentlemen, is the accomplishments of the Jewish religion. You’ve been outstanding business people and I compliment you for that.”
Jason Thompson has since apologized for his remarks about the president.
yeah and so, whats the problem
agree 100%
Send him any place except Washington DC; come to think about it he is never there any way; so lets make it permanent
New Republican strategy for next three weeks: keep mouth wired shut
Oy vey he mentioned Kenya?!?! The FACT is that The Obama spent time in Kenya. These feel good but do evil democrats need to chill every time someone says Kenya.
Send him to live anonymously in Venezuela or in the countries that have been victimized by the Arab Spring, so that he can see what things are really like under the dictators that he loves to much.
Like Governor Sanford saying President Obama solo come out throwing spears tomorrow night
Send him to Hawaii or Red China.
Anywhere that will take him
