Let the Healing Begin

Wyoming state Representative-elect Gerald Gay (R) "said he was attacked after introducing himself" to Walter Schnorenberg, a 78-year-old Democrat. Gay knocked on Schnorenberg's door and introduced himself, "Hi, I'm Gerald Gay. I'm the Republican-" Schnorenberg allegedly grabbed Gay by the arm and shoulders, turned him around, grabbed the back of Gay's neck and tried to push him down the steps of his front porch.

Schnorenberg, a retired pipefitter stated, "That is an absolute falsehood... Man, what a phony bastard that is... The only thing I might have said is 'You wrap the flag around your ass to proclaim your patriotism.' And I think maybe that was a little bit rude, I don't know."

Gay also said, "Apparently, the guy is really angry at Republicans... He called me a 'Bush-head'."

"On Tuesday, this nation rejected liberalism, primarily because liberalism has been taken captive by the left. Since 1968, the left has taken millions captive, and we must help those Democrats who truly want to be free to actually break free of this evil ideology."

"...The left must be defeated in the realm of ideas, just as it was on Tuesday at the ballot box. The left hates the ballot box and loves its courtrooms, which is why it hopes to continue to advance its agenda through the courts. This must end."
