"God Bless 'Em"

"When I see people like that I put my hand on their shoulder and say God Bless 'Em. And, um, I know some of these people. I know the people who are gonna be protesting. Some of these people are the same ones that are pro-homosexuality. They're anti-death penalty. They're anti-conservative causes. They want more tax increases. Some of these people fit the same mold all across as ultra-liberal."

State Sen. Dave Zien (R-Gun Nut) said that about people who may protest at the National Rifle Assn. convention, which opens Thursday night in Milwaukee.

Pat Kreitlow, Zien's opponent in November, wonders: Was he serious?
