Commentary: Texas congressional race becomes an extreme Obama hate-fest | McClatchy
Okay, which one of you wingnuts is Riddle? I'm sure he's gotta be posting here!
Riddle, a retired Army officer from Gatesville, wants to impeach Obama for "giving away" seven Arctic Ocean and Bering Sea islands near Siberia to Russia.
(Yes, even though those islands were ceded in 1991 under President George H.W. Bush.)
A year ago, Riddle invited Facebook friends to his Belton theater for a rally promoting the Constitution Party, a third party that calls for restoring government "on the Gospel of Jesus Christ."
Riddle's Web list of supporters openly includes the Constitution Party state chairman, Collin County banker Bob Eoff.
Eoff said Tuesday that Riddle gave the same speech at a John Birch Society meeting in Richardson.
"He's running as a Republican, but he's more of a Constitution Party guy," Eoff said.
Riddle said Tuesday that his speech was just a "short welcome" to his theater.
"Please don't try to tar and feather me with that label, because it's not accurate," he said, adding that he covers "the whole conservative spectrum."
Riddle said the John Birch Society, a conspiracy-fearing group, is "in the mainstream." He has posted one of the Birchers' signs on Facebook: "Impeach Obama."
