What We’re Up Against

Rep. Herger (R-CA)

Rep. Herger (R-CA)

From the Mount Shasta Area Newspapers:

One speaker said he could trace his ancestors back to the Mayflower and said “they did not arrive holding their hands out for help.”

“I am a proud right wing terrorist,” he declared to cheers.

[Rep. Wally] Herger [R-CA] praised the man’s attitude.

“Amen, God bless you,” Herger said with a broad smile. “There is a great American.”
