Pennsylvania Dem forced to resign from local party over ‘Stand for the flag’ Facebook post​

A county Democratic official in Pennsylvania says he was forced to step down over a Facebook post saying he "[stands] for the flag." … Mark Salvas, the former executive director of the Allegheny County Democratic Party, told Pittsburgh's KDKA News that the county party chair asked him to resign after just weeks on the job.... Salvas, a former Marine and Gulf War veteran, told KDKA that his forced departure was prompted by two social media posts, including one photo of him and his wife with the words: "I stand for the flag, I kneel at the cross."... "I'm not ashamed of my patriotism, not one bit. I fought for this country. I think I have a right to have a voice and be patriotic," Salvas told KDKA. "It's never easy when people you have never met accuse you of things and call you names, and you've never met them."

A big welcome to another #Walkaway Democrat. Mark Salvas is pretty typical of a lot of old-school Western PA Democrats. The door is open for Republicans to recruit voters if the state party here were not too STOOOOOOPID to take advantage of it. Just one more confirmation that Democrats hate America and hate God. The friend of the working man crap runs deep and is very entrenched but there are a lot of cracks in that wall. You’d think the steel mills being shut down would have opened their eyes to being sold out by union bosses and power-hungry Progressive Democrats. There are people in Western Pennsylvania who STILL believe that Democrats will bring back the mills along with all of the overcompensated union jobs, if only they could elect the "right" Democrat politician. It's a form of stupid you can't fix.
 
Not long ago, officials from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (President Obama's team) held a required public hearing regarding a proposed change to rules concerning an endangered species, with State Fish and Wildlife Services officers also present - they all sitting up front at a long table silent - as all citizens stood for the pledge.

About 200 people were there, myself included. The kind of people who get involved politically. One stood up stating that before any government meeting the pledge of allegiance to the flag is stated. The lead federal officer conducting the meeting said they do not do that and instructed all at the table to remain seated. Everyone stood for the pledge but those government officials.

The federal official then explained while they are required to hold a public hearing, they are not required to speak and they had already enacted the changes - totally negating the purpose of required public hearings. They might as well have spit on everyone in Obama's name as the topic is a huge one to this community. Some people spoke on the changes and were totally ignored as all the government officials just sat their silently. They then left without speaking to anyone like the arrogant assholes they are, other than some state officers privately apologized and explained they didn't dare defy the DC feds.

Word of this spread like wildfire. Not only did this entire region - every county - vote over 80% for President Trump (until then this county was 50/50 partisan split with local officials in both parties), but by unprecedented massive voter turn-out, delivering the State Of Florida to Trump. Every local and state level Democrat was voted out of office as well for the first time since the post Civil War. Most significant was the Sheriff, which in Florida is an extremely powerful position in all but the massive urban areas.

The anti-American, anti-patriotism and anti-Christian radical left of the Democratic Party has destroyed the Democratic Party from what it used to be in many, many ways. But for the MSM's non-stop war against President Trump and conservatives to try to cover this up and divert from it, the country would vote 75+% Republican.

Must be sumpin' in the water. My goombah and partner at arms from the Vietnam War put two 8" by 11" sheets of blotter acid/LSD in the local resevoir in this Republican community and nobody noticed. Well, why would they? It just induces paranoia, delusions and hallucinations which seem to be a Republican stock in trade, eh?

Mind boggling that this is now controversial. Hope he #walksaway.

joko- interesting story about FL. Thank you.
 
A Georgetown professor tweets about GOP men dying painful deaths, then cutting their penises off and feeding them to pigs. Last I read, she was not fired.
And this guy has to resign because he exercised his 1st amendment right to support standing for the American flag?

What??

I hope you're joking about this.
