Heh. @DavidOAtkins crawls on his belly like a miserable little worm to apologize to Republicans.

Oh, I’d keep quiet about that, if I were him. He’s done quite enough damage to his local party structure as it is.

The chair of the Ventura County [California] Democratic Party has apologized for a series of tweets he sent out over the Fourth of July weekend that infuriated local Republicans and brought calls for his resignation.

Ventura resident David Atkins, who has served as party chair since 2012, found himself the target of the National Republican Congressional Committee after posting several messages on Independence Day implying the GOP sided with the Nazis prior to the outset of World War II and wanted women to go back to the days of “coathanger induced sepsis” with regard to abortions.

Atkins also expressed the opinion that most Republican voters are old white men and that he was waiting for them to die.

Atkins should be grateful that a county Democratic party chair doesn’t deserve more than a RedHot mention at RedState. Even if he did have to be smacked around by the grownups in his own party and forced to apologize with gritted teeth.  –  Because you know that he didn’t mean it, of course.  David Atkins is just not tough enough to tell his own Establishment where to head in.  I personally would have quit, first – but, hey, petty power is the best power, eh?

Do remember that, o ye lurkers. David Atkins was given the opportunity to speak what he thinks is truth to his own power structure. He clearly prefers to keep his job.

  1. “implying the GOP sided with the Nazis prior to the outset of World War II ”
    .
    That was the vanguard of the Democrat party, the CPUSA.
