QUOTES FROM THE RIGHT, UNEDITED


RYAN ZINKE
Ryan Zinke, a former Navy SEAL and state senator who is now running for Congress in Montana, said during a campaign stop this week that he is worried the country is losing sight of the real threat to the nation: Hillary Clinton.
“We need to focus on the real enemy,” said Zinke on Monday, referring to Clinton, according to the Bigfork Eagle. He also called the former Secretary of State the "anti-Christ."

MICHELLE BACHMANN & STEVE KING
“He may think he is king, he may declare he’s a king, but that’s not what he is under the Constitution,” Bachmann said Tuesday. Rep. Steve King of Iowa had Bachmann’s back, arguing that Obama has repeatedly acted outside of the bounds of his constitutional authority. Not only should Congress bring Obama to court, King said, but the House should also consider a formal resolution “that lists all of [Obama’s] constitutional violations, or at least the clearest ones—there are very many, I don’t know if we’d ever get to all.”

ALLEN WEST ON COCA-COLA SUPER BOWL AD 
"If we cannot be proud enough as a country to sing 'America the Beautiful' in English in a commercial during the Super Bowl, by a company as American as they come — doggone we are on the road to perdition," wrote former Rep. Allen West, R-Fla., on his website. 
West called the 60-second ad "truly disturbing" and included a lengthy quote by former President Teddy Roosevelt, which ended, "We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language for we intend to see that the crucible turns our people out as Americans, and American nationality, and not as dwellers in a polyglot boarding house; and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

However, another prominent Republican tweeted the opposite view :

My favorite commercial so far? Coca Cola's America the Beautiful ad. Gave me goosebumps, and I don't even drink pop! #superbowlcommercials
